Located in the stylish New Town area of Edinburgh city centre, consummately fusing the best of eastern and western cuisine, Nargile is a must for any discerning foodie. Serving predominantly Turkish fare with Mediterranean influences, the staff pride themselves not only on their inspirational food, but their excellent customer service too.

Nargile was re-launched in 2010, celebrating the return of the restaurant’s original family owners with newly modernised decor and menus. Since then, it has quickly become a culinary landmark, and a place to get truly excited about.

On arrival you’ll be welcomed by a relaxing ambience and smiling, friendly staff. Before you dive into the food menu, take time to appreciate the carefully selected wine list, which showcases labels from all over the world, including a selection of popular Turkish wines. The extensive food menus have a strong focus on traditional meze dishes, beautifully and uniquely presented. Why not share a ‘banquet’ set menu, starting at £22.95 per person, for that perfect romantic meal for two? Otherwise, sample an ever-popular kebab, deliciously marinated and skewered with onions and peppers, served with salad, rice and a chilli dip. Rest assured, there are plenty of options for vegetarians and guests with other dietary requirements. Overall, Nargile provides a dazzlingly original culinary experience.
