Ella - Taste of Greece

About Ella - Taste of Greece

A Greek kitchen with a Turkish and Middle Eastern accent, this Edinburgh spot pulls in parents as much for the room as the plates — light wood, soft tones and little nods to Greek mythology tucked into every corner, which buys you a few minutes of children looking around instead of fidgeting. The fried halloumi with tomato jam gets rhapsodised over, as does the Tigania Kotopoulo chicken and its sauce, and the meat sharing board feeds a table generously. Portions are big without being heavy. High chairs, outdoor seating and vegan options are all here, and the team are notably accommodating — one family had pork kept separate on the platter without having to ask twice. Two honest snags: it can run short-staffed at busy times, and lamb cutlets have arrived tough. Book ahead, especially for dinner.
