Fava Restaurant - Greek Kitchen

You'll find Fava tucked away on Morrison Street, just far enough from Princes Street that it feels like a proper neighbourhood spot rather than tourist bait. This is where Edinburgh's Greek community actually eats—the kind of place where they've nailed the fundamentals without needing to dress things up. The kitchen takes its time with seafood, does proper slow-cooked meats, and their mezze spread is genuinely hard to stop picking at. Friendly staff who know their stuff, reasonable prices for what you're getting, and the sort of atmosphere that makes you want to linger over wine longer than you planned.
