Uwagboe's Kitchen & Grill

I visited Uwagboe's kitchen and Grill on my birthday. Although, I never told them that it was my birthday. It is the best African restaurants in Edingburgh. The ambiance is terrific. The food is tasty and filling. Staff members are well behaved, polite and professional. I will recommend this beautiful restaurant to friends and family. Please do not hesitate to visit this restaurant when you are in Edingburgh you will not regret it.

Thoroughly enjoyed the food here which was so full of flavour. The staff were also very friendly and happily gave us lots of advice on the menu as it was mostly new to us. Highly recommend the Egusi soup with beef. The goat that came with the Jollof rice was also fantastic. I will need to return!

I had always wanted to eat out at an African restaurant in Edinburgh and I was glad I did at Uwagboe’s kitchen. The food, customer service, ambiance, music and environment was and is very welcoming. Highly recommend for families, social & official events. The experience is memorable and worth it Great job

Heard about Nigerian Fanta so had to try it, it's very good. Lives up to the social media hype. I had the rice and goat meat. The food was good, homely. For anyone who wonders if it'll be too spicy it's not too hot and the spice flavour is more smokey than anything. I think what drags the place down a little is the decor and atmosphere. The chairs and tables give off a high end vibe but cutlery is pub style on the table - the anagram plates have an American grill style about them and the printed laminated menus feel very informal. None of this is bad but I feel like the tone is holding this place back from reaching its full potential. Even so the food was great, the staff were friendly and I wish them the best going forward!

Unbelievably good food, was invited to the restaurant by a friend and was treated to a fantastic evening. The staff were welcoming and the service throughout the meal was second to none. The food was divine, I ordered the plant-based egusi with poundo, a side of plantain and a starter of moi moi. It was all brilliant, and as a first introduction to Nigerian food has me sold. Learning to eat with my hands was an experience, and something I really enjoyed doing. The meal arrived in good time and didn't last long once I had started. This restaurant has managed to place very highly in my recommendations of places to eat in Edinburgh and I'll endeavour to bring as many people here as I can. If you're in the city and fancy trying delicious food in a brilliant atmosphere, you'd have to look hard to find somewhere better than Uwagboe's.
