We used to stop by Muna's stall at Grassmarket market now and then. She has always been so warm and friendly. I couldn't wait to go try her new restaurant and it did not disappoint!! Food was unreal, amazing flavours. Decor and music in the restaurant made such a nice vibe. Price was so reasonable for the quality you get there, especially for city centre! Even though it was busy, everybody delivered such a great dining experience for us. I can't wait to bring people back here to try Muna's excellence! Thank you :)
