  Simply put - my favourite kebab in Edinburgh.  I shopped around for kebabs for months when I moved there, and aside from being in a great location, Cappadocia nailed the kebab on every level.  I can't speak for the rest of their food, but the kebabs are outstanding.
  
  Price is a bit above average for a kebab place, but the portions, even for a small, are pretty substantial.

  Fresh food ... good lamb, tender.
  
  Seasonings a bit bland but fresh and fast.  When in Scotland, eat lamb!
  
  Turkish restaurants in Toronto are head and shoulders above.  Also served doner with fries which was different.

  Excellent kebab meat and a top notch garlic mint yoghurt sauce. I am from out of town, but this place has been seriously overlooked in Yelp reviews. Lamb and chicken kebabs strongly recommended. Super nice and friendly owner as well an added plus!

  A fair place for a huge kebab.
  
  My intention, when I was arriving to Edinburgh, was to have a full immersion in the Scottish kitchen, but changing my mind was an easy task, when starving was the only alternative.
  After a delay of my flight in London Gatwick (my traveling experience with British Airways was a real "meh") I arrived late in Edinburgh. All the other eateries in the area were closed, so I decided to try their kebab.
  
  The waiters were very busy. I was the only customer, but they were committed with cleaning and washing and storing everything, before closing. I opted for a simple doner (lamb) kebab with every topping, to make the preparation as easy and quick as possible.
  I was considering to take the kebab away and eat it along the way back to my b&b, but when I had the package in my hands I had to look for a place to put it on. It was huge!
  
  Not a memorable kebab (my memories go only to one I had in Germany and one in Greece), but a fair meal.
  Despite feeling a little bit guilty, because I was occupying some space they had to clean, I ate as much as possible of the dish, but I wasn't able to complete even half of my mission.
  
  Very good for hungry people!

  I've only ever been to Cappadocia after nights out, so I wouldn't like to put it down too much.  However, I'm fairly sure it's not the best kebab house.  I remember asking the guy behind the counter for chips and curry sauce several times and getting told repeatedly that they don't do that.  Fair enough.  So I went for the house doner which took a pretty long time to arrive and cost about £3.  When I finally got tucked in it seemed to take forever to eat.  The meat itself tasted fine, but the pita bread was so dry and big.  The chilli sauce and mayonnaise which it came with were both tasty, but there just wasn't enough to help with getting the damn bread down the hatch!  
  I come here about once a month and I'll probably come again, but I just prefer other places for the post-club munchies.
