Five Star

Five Star on Mayfield Road blends Chinese and Thai cuisines from a takeaway on the quieter southern stretch of the EH9 corridor, serving the Mayfield and Prestonfield residential neighbourhood beyond the main Newington strip. The kitchen has been serving this community for many years under the Five Star and Mayfield Village names — one long-term customer noted ordering for seven to eight years without the food quality "ever failing." Just Eat rates the shop at 4.2/5 across 321 reviews and Menu.reviews aggregates over 1,000 customer ratings at 4/5. The Thai element of the menu is relatively unusual for this part of south Edinburgh, where most takeaways run a purely Chinese offer. Closed Wednesdays. A reliable neighbourhood option for Prestonfield and Mayfield residents.
