Reviews of Kalpna
"This is literally the first place that I went to for lunch on Day 1 of my Scotland trip (over the Easter Weekend in Apr-22).. after getting off at Edinburgh Waverley Station. And boy, I tell you it was absolutely worth it! I was travelling with my Mum and Sis, who were visiting from India, and I quickly zeroed down on Kalpna based on online reviews - since we were craving Indian Vegetarian food. And what a BRILLIANT decision!! The restaurant was almost closing at 2 pm, but agreed to take my full order in one-go - as the kitchen was closing. Food was DELICIOUS, and the Manager / Caretaker was friendly and had a long chat with us. However, the biggest BUMMER (which is why I’ve deducted 1 Star!) was that they DIDN’T ACCEPT CARDS. I knew they had a card machine, but were reluctant to entertain any requests. So after a heavy meal, I had to walk around in the sun and search for an ATM to settle my Lunch Bill. Absolutely ridiculous in this day and age, and especially in the UK - where everything is tap-and-pay. I come from India and there are always multiple options for payment in all restaurants. Food is LIP SMACKING, but go with CASH ON HAND!"
"The ambience was good but didn't meet the expectation. 1. The service was very slow.We were three people but they didn't even give one glass.Only two glasses were there. 2.We ordered Masala Dosa but it was not at all crispy.Very thick layer of dosa which should not be the case.Sambar was not at all sambar..No sourness was there.Coconut chutney was horrible.Very thick not the authentic one. 3.Presentation was good but to me it is overhyped as well as overpriced.Though the service was not at all good they charged almost 10% on the overall amount for the service tax.I would not recommend this restaurant.."
"This is pure vegetarian/vegan Indian restaurant. Seems like the only one in Edinburgh. ✅This ambiance is good. ❌But the food in below average. We had Mysore masala and Palak paneer dosa, Kadhai paneer and tandoori rotis. They had no salt and tasted okay. ❌The service is slow as well and it took a lot of time for us to get the order. ➖At the end they mentioned they will only accept cash as the card machine is not working and I had to go out, withdraw it for them."
"Have no words to describe how delicious the food was....travelling from Sheffield and decided to give this place a go...so glad we did...we had the chilli cheese dosa and the raj thali bog....so so so good defo will be back...if you are trying the vegan friendly cuisine give this place a go...definitely changed my views and I am a lover of steak!!!"
