TripAdvisor recognition for Midlothian restaurants

Midlothian restaurants hit global Top Ten

Great to see this news for Midlothian curry houses Itihaas and The Radhuni.  TripAdvisor has included them in its latest annual listing of the world’s top 10% of restaurants.

Each year, it names favourite businesses around the world, based on reviews and ratings collected over 12 months, and designates them as ‘Travellers’ Choices.”

A spokesperson for TripAdvisor commented: “This reflects the excellent hospitality which Itihaas and The Radhuni provide for every guest. This is the result of real-life diners’ insights”.

Both restaurants have won a string of top local and national awards.

The Radhuni, in Loanhead, was named the UK’s top curry restaurant last year by trade magazine Curry Life and has twice won the title of Scotland’s Curry Restaurant of the Year in the British Curry Awards.

The 120-seat restaurant is one of only four Indian-style restaurants in Scotland to have been awarded an AA Rosette for culinary excellence. This Summer it won the ‘Hidden Gem’ category for the Edinburgh, Fife and East Scotland region in the Scotsman newspaper’s Scran Awards.

Itihaas, in Dalkeith, has twice been named Restaurant of the Year by Midlothian and East Lothian Chamber of Commerce.

Matin Khan, Founder and Executive Chef of both restaurants, is a former Scottish Curry Chef of the Year.
