Nanyang Malaysian Restaurant

Nanyang Malaysian Restaurant is one of Edinburgh's few dedicated Malaysian kitchens, operating from a unit in the Quartermile development on the former Edinburgh Royal Infirmary site between the Meadows and the Old Town. The menu covers the canon of Malaysian street food: nasi lemak — coconut rice with chicken curry, spicy peanut sambal and egg — alongside laksa, rendang, char kway teow and wonton soups. A reviewer who had lived in Johor Bahru called the flavours authentic, which is a meaningful endorsement in a city where Malaysian food is uncommon. Restaurant Guru aggregates over 1,800 reviews and scores it 4.2 out of 5. The Quartermile setting gives Nanyang a mixed clientele of Quartermile residents, office workers and visitors drawn from the nearby University of Edinburgh campus. Takeaway and dine-in both available.
