Ronaq serving up tapas treats for lunch

Ronaq, one of Edinburgh’s most popular Indian restaurants, is spicing things up with the launch of a lunchtime tapas menu.

Available from this weekend (Saturday, 1 February), the new menu at the Comely Bank BYOB will feature four sections – starter, mains, accompaniments and afters. 

The usual traditional classics such as pakora, chicken biryani, lamb jalfrazi and vegetable korma will all be featured alongside an array of other mouth-watering meals, while fans of fish curry won’t be disappointed by the Machli Balti, haddock cooked with green peppers, coriander, cumin, cardamoms, pimento and cinnamon.

Diners can choose one dish from each section for £9.95.

There is also a children’s menu offering chicken tikka, chicken curry, chicken korma and fish fingers from £6.95. 

The tapas will be served from 12-2pm Monday-Friday, and from 2pm-5pm on Saturdays and Sundays.

“We’re excited to introduce this new lunchtime offering for our customers,” said owner Mohammed Shoaib.

“Tapas are a fun way to enjoy a number of different dishes and there is something for everybody on the menu. It’s an ideal way to taste a variety of the flavours which we are renowned for.

“They can also be served quite quickly, ideal for people who may be on their lunch break from work and a little short of time.”

Ronaq serves up New Year treat for diners with 50% off in January

Popular Indian restaurant Ronaq is serving up a New Year treat for Edinburgh diners with 50 per cent off all food for the month of January.

The Comely Bank eatery is offering the discount on its extensive a la carte menu to help its customers kick off 2025 in delicious style.

The BYOB restaurant welcomes customers to experience the taste of cooking styles from across south Asia, whether that’s authentic Punjabi home cooking from Lahore in Pakistan, Kashmiri cuisine, flavoursome Indian dishes or Bangladeshi specialities.

Everything from starters and traditional main dishes to exclusive chef’s specials and desserts are available at half price when eating in from 1-31 January – there is also a 20% discount on takeaway collections throughout the month.

“We really value our loyal customer base and wanted to give something back to them with this offer,” said owner Mohammed Shoaib.

“2024 was a difficult year for a lot of folk and with prices continuing to rise across the board, there will be more challenges ahead, particularly at this time of year when money is tight.

“It can be expensive going out for dinner in Edinburgh but we want to help people enjoy themselves with a delicious meal without their pockets being hit too heavily.”
