Ahmeds Tandoori

Ahmed's Tandoori on Newhaven Road serves the residential streets between Leith and the old fishing village of Newhaven, operating as a delivery-focused Indian takeaway from its position on the road that runs along the Forth shore. The menu covers the standard tandoori and curry-house range: starters, clay-oven grills including tandoori chicken and mixed grills, and a full list of sauces from the mild Makhoni (butter, cream, tomato) through Saag Massala with spinach to the spicier Jalfryzee with peppers. Biryani, vegetable dishes, rice and breads complete the order. The kitchen holds a five-star food hygiene rating and sources halal meat. Free delivery runs up to four miles on a £15 minimum, covering Leith, Newhaven, Trinity and the surrounding streets. The takeaway runs seven days a week from five in the afternoon, with a teatime special — a second classic curry at half price before seven — that has made it a dependable after-work option in a neighbourhood that has relatively few dedicated Indian takeaways of its own.
