Rising Dragon

Rising Dragon is a Chinese takeaway on Summerhall Place, a short residential side street off Causewayside in the Sciennes quarter. The Summerhall arts complex — one of Edinburgh's most active independent arts venues — is close by, and Edinburgh University's south-side buildings and student accommodation surround the area. The kitchen runs the standard Cantonese range and opens from 4pm daily for collection and local delivery into the immediately surrounding EH9 streets. The restaurant's own website at risingdragontakeaway.co.uk handles direct online orders. Summerhall Place itself is a quiet address for a takeaway, which means the trade is almost entirely local and loyal — the student and young-professional population of the surrounding Sciennes and Newington tenements — rather than walk-in passing business.
