Yeni - Edinburgh

Great after work location in central location. the friendly waiting staff recommended how many pure dishes to have, but would recommend about 3. the lamb and the ugly bowl is to die! served with a good taste, it was the best I ever had. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

Yeni has a lovely ambiance and incredibly welcoming staff. Our group tried 10 or 11 Meze dishes, with some being excellent, while others were just average or a bit disappointing. The smoked paprika spiced potatoes with spicy tomato sauce, arancini, and the numerous baked eggplant slices stood out, but I wasn't a fan of the falafel and thought the hummus was lacking flavor. For dessert, we enjoyed a delightful trio of Turkish delights and a refreshing mint tea.

Yeni is a small institution serving Turkish and Greek food. risk not to book before their own disappointment. ideal for group meetings, the friendly employees make sure they are fed, then literally stuffed like their aubergins! The banquet options are the one to go away, even if they are only two or a party of four. the cold midshots are plentiful, the hommus pleasing, the hot midshots are a great entrance into the lamb iskendar, the juicy chicken kebabs and the cadjau £9.50 next order). the Turkish bulge store £4.50) is a clean crisp easy drink beer to wash their gullet. wish they served at the end of Turkish coffee, as well as a standard practice for all banquets.

This place is brilliant! I came here on Saturday for a birthday and had never heard of yeni, I was really excited to try this restaurant. all our group decided to go for the set option, the £24.95 pp as long as there was a minimum of two people for this option. we had 5 cold meze, 4 hot meze and a selection of dressed for the main course followed by tea/coffee and dessert. the meal was simply amazing. first, the staff could not have been able to come before. I was offered gluten-free brot to go beside my meze and my friend was offered alternative meze as she does not like a lamb or fish and they were more than happy to suggest alternatives and to contain other dishes that are normally not served with this set menu option. then the food came, all our dishes were perfectly cooked, well seasoned and the portions were good for 4 people (although were not able to eat everything on our dishes! the main selection at main courses was also nicely cooked and seasoned and the portions were perfect. there was also a bit of rice with the main dishes that was very good. feel extremely full and satisfied we then had a small selection of traditional Turkish desserts with tee

Delighted to have discovered this little Turkish haven on Hanover Street! The staff were so welcoming and hospitable. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and they were happy to accommodate individual dietary requirements (and general fussiness! As a non fish eater, and not a fan of lamb, they replaced a few dishes in the Ottoman Feast for myself, and included a few requested dishes, such as Arancini. The food was out of this world, we were continually presented with incredibly delicious dish after dish after dish. Cannot wait to return!
