Gy Chinese Takeaway

GY Chinese Takeaway on Roseneath Place has been serving the Marchmont area since 1973, making it one of the longer-established Chinese takeaways in south Edinburgh. The kitchen avoids MSG where possible and is praised for its attentive counter team — reviewers note that staff will call back from the kitchen to confirm specific meal details before cooking, a level of care that stands out on the platforms. The menu covers a broad Cantonese range including vegetarian options, at what regulars describe as "very reasonable prices." TripAdvisor gives it 3.5/5 and Yelp 3/5, reflecting a solid if not spectacular neighbourhood operation. Roseneath Place is a short residential lane in the Marchmont tenement grid, so the trade is almost entirely local collection.
