My wife and I enjoy Turkish cooking and our visit to Hanedan did not disappoint in that regard with delicious food well served by courteous staff. It is however very small and rather cramped. I found it hard to relax in that environment and that aspect rather spoiled what should have been a good experience. Would I recommend it? Why... More

I ate here with wife and friends - we booked a table which was just as we'll cause when we arrived (about 8pm on a Saturday night) the place was rammed. This is partly cause the restaurant is pretty small, and my only complaint would be that it was a bit cramped at our table. That said the food is... More

We've eaten there a couple of times, once as a couple, once with friends, the restaurant was suitable for cosy couples, old friends and family groups; the friendliness of the owner and cheerful service makes the atmosphere here. It's small - so book if possible, and this isn't haute cuisine, but the food is simple, very, very tasty, and cooked... More

This could be the shortest review ever but two words really do sum up this place: Eat here! Both my wife and I throughly enjoyed our visit to Hanedan. The food is really great quality, very tasty and excellent value for money. It is quite small but very popular (which is easy to see why) so if you intend on... More

We sometimes take our wee one with us only when it is not busy as the place is... More

This little restaurant has a great atmosphere. My very generous serving of humuz was deliciously spicy and garlicky. The tavuk shish melted in the mouth and the cacik made it close to perfect. I shall certainly return.

The blurb on the Hanedan website is spot on: "The Hanedan Restaurant is situated a short walk from the Edinburgh City Centre, close to The Meadows. It brings to Edinburgh a delightful taste of Turkey with its authentic delicious dishes in a restaurant which is restful and airy. Its delightful host ensures that all guests feel welcome and served to... More

The staff were lovely and the decor is very authentic but the food really wasn't up to scratch, very over seasoned!
