Cilantro is an Indian restaurant at 4 Albert Place in Leith. The small dining room serves food cooked to order, bringing aromatic spices and home ground blends together with fresh Scottish produce in a menu designed for an unhurried evening meal.

Starters include chicken and lamb tikka, seekh kebab, pakora, samosa and king prawns on puri, with chickpea, vegetable and onion dishes for meat free diners. Tandoori chicken, shashlik and mixed grills are marinated and cooked in the charcoal fired clay oven.

Balti and biryani dishes sit alongside a broad range of classic curry sauces and Cilantro specialities. Vegetable mains and sides include lentils, potatoes, cauliflower and peas, while fragrant basmati rice and naan, roti, chapati and paratha complete the meal.

The restaurant serves soft drinks and allows customers to bring their own alcohol subject to corkage. Gluten, nuts, dairy and other allergens are marked on the menu, but guests should still explain all dietary requirements to staff because dishes are prepared in a shared kitchen.

Address: 4 Albert Place, Leith, Edinburgh EH7 5HN, Scotland
