Shri Bheemas Indian Restaurant

Shri Bheema's brings to its Constitution Street site the Indian cooking that established the brand in Aberdeen, where the family-run group has been a finalist at the British Curry Awards and won Chef of the Year at the Aberdeen Curry Awards — a track record that places it well above the generic curry-house average. The kitchen covers South and North Indian traditions: South Indian preparations sit alongside the North Indian tandoori and sauce-based dishes more familiar to British diners, and the team emphasises spicing that is authentic rather than toned down for the mainstream market. The all-you-can-eat lunch buffet format has been a popular option since the Edinburgh opening. Constitution Street is the arterial road through old Leith's historic grid, and Shri Bheema's is one of the more credentialled Indian restaurants in a street that has hosted Indian cooking for decades.
