Ok, I'm getting slightly irked about folk saying all the restaurants in the thread are great 😎 so how about a thread that's all about Shan ones...in folks opinion of course!
Chop House in market Street is horrendously overrated, tiny lunch portions and poor service.

Further up that same road, I've twice been disappointed by La Garrigue.

Spice Lounge in corstorphine has some nice food but the service is shocking!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, vodka in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

The Indian Lounge on Rose Street is quite possibly the worst Indian restaurant in the UK. The food is 2nd only to the service in terms of woefulness.
The owners replies to TripAdvisor reviews are worth a read though. He's clearly in denial.

Was many moons ago now, but Hard Rock Cafe in Edinburgh was undoubtedly the worst Hard Rock food I’ve had in the entire world. And I’ve been to a good few of them (much to my wife’s chagrin).

At a hotel I was staying at near Birmingham airport I couldn’t be hooped going into town so ate at the hotel restaurant. Went for chilli con carne and they evidently ran out of sour cream because it was topped with a huge mound of squirty cream!

Dunno if it’s still there, but that Jamie Oliver restaurant on Rose Street was terrible.

The theme seems to be chains:
Jamie Oliver
Chiquito
Cafe Andaluz
Hard Rock Cafe

Never understood the clamour around Frankie & Benny’s. Overpriced and the food is nothing special at all.
Overrated pile of s****!

The Basement - Mexican place. The portion size was tiny and the (small amount of) meat was no better than what I'd buy for 2 quid in Aldi and make at home.

Gusto’s on George Street (another chain) is also over rated and bang average''It's always been just part of the culture. Growing up, for most working-class kids, is all about football, music or clothes. You might not have much money, but whatever you have got, you're going to look good.'' - Paul Weller

Although I've had some okay food from all bar one. Not awesome food, I don't think any chain would give that - but reasonable quality and price.Mon the Hibs.

It’s not a place I really like that much but my boy likes it and so do my nieces so it’s a place the adults will go to keep the kids happy and it does a job, there’s normally deals on which makes it a pretty good deal.
I had a couple of shocking meals there before so tended to stick to pizzas but ventured to other stuff when I’ve been the last couple of times and it’s been fine, not going to win any awards but it’s alright.
FWIW they do a really good breakfast that’s much better than their normal menu.
Worst restaurant I’ve been to is that Jamie Oliver’s in town, hated everything about it.
