Dusit

“HANDS DOWN THE BEST RESTAURANT I’VE BEEN TO IN THE UK! Firstly, the quality of service is unmatched, the staff are so so attentive and ensure you feel welcomed and warm. They kept refilling our glasses without having to ask for water. They took time to explain menu items to us. And then the food, absolutely mind blowing! So authentic and well prepared, I’ve only had such great curry and pad Thai in Thailand, the whole experience was no less than a Michelin restaurant!”

“Authentic Thai Flavors in the Heart of Edinburgh. If you’re craving authentic Thai cuisine, this hidden gem in Edinburgh is a must-visit. Owned and run by a Thai with an all-Thai staff, this restaurant delivers a truly genuine taste of Thailand, verified by Thai locals themselves. The stir-fried Thai basil with minced chicken is bursting with bold flavors, combining fragrant basil, spicy chilies, and savory minced chicken, perfectly balanced with a hint of herbal and spicy. The tom yum shrimp is equally impressive hot, sour, and aromatic, with fresh herbs and plump shrimp in a rich flavourful broth. For meat lovers, the grilled beef with spicy Thai-style sauce is a standout. The beef is tender and smoky, complemented by a tangy, spicy dipping sauce that enhances every bite. The vegetable spring rolls are crispy and light, served with a sweet chili sauce that adds just the right amount of sweetness. To finish, the deep-fried banana with coconut and sesame, served with honey and vanilla ice cream, is the perfect ending. The crunchy banana pairs beautifully with the creamy ice cream, making for a delightful contrast of textures and flavors. This restaurant is a true taste of Thailand in Edinburgh, offering authentic dishes, warm hospitality, and an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended!”

“The best Thai we’ve ever eaten! We always look for a Thai restaurant during our travels because we know the food will always be similar in taste. This place exceeded our expectations! The owner and staff were welcoming even though we didn’t have a reservation. She could have told us no seats available but she found us a spot. Literally ate there all 3 nights we were in Edinburgh. Food came out quick and hot! The staff checked on us and made sure we had a wonderful meal. The location is off the beaten path but so worth the extra steps! If possible, recommend a reservation. Thank you Auntie!!”

“As someone from Thailand, I could never thought I’d say this: Surprisingly the best Pad Thai I’ve had isn’t in Thailand but it’s in Edinburgh! Right from this restaurant Dusit. If you never ate Pad Thai before but you’ve come to Dusit, well this isn’t a should try but it’s a must try or if you already love Pad Thai well you know what to do. Pad Thai is SO GOOD, like THE BEST IN THE WORLD. Tom yum clear soup is good too. Miss this place already and I will come back for sure!”

“Absolutely great food and attentive service. As a group of 4 we went for the banquet option and there was plenty for everyone and the portions of everything were ideal. It’s very good value for money even with drinks too and I would definitely return”
