Gave this restaurant a try.Staff not very friendly, had to wait 40 mins for dinner, no complimentary starter,ordered the North Indian garlic chilli, all I could taste was the chilli no flavor of garlic had this dish several times not good, my wife got the the tikka masala very bland portion size poorly for the price, won't be back would recommend the shazan two doors down best curry I've tasted

We had starters and main courses. Both were delicious. Staff were friendly and ambience was really lovely. Just across the road from the playhouse theatre and close to tram stop and st James shopping centre

When we’ve been attending a show at the Edinburgh Playhouse, we’ve visited here for dinner beforehand. Food is always delicious and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Neighbouring restaurants are always full but not this one. Not sure if it’s because they don’t offer a dedicated pre-theatre menu but to be honest, prices are very reasonable that it doesn’t matter. I probably shouldn’t say this as it could mean if I try to book in future, it could be full 😉. But if you are looking for a dinner venue before a show then Passage to India is well worth a visit.

Vegetable pakora and Momo's were awesome. Lamb biriani was OK but too much rice to finish it all.

Best tasting curries we've had on this and our previous visit. Good service, apologised for us having to wait for our starters and gave us free Poppadoms to compensate. Very reasonably priced for Edinburgh City centre. Highly recommend

Behind the humble exterior lies a restaurant that provides not only amazing food but fantastic service. I had the sizzler for my main course and it’s definitely one of the best meals I’ve ever had.
