Chilo’s in Edinburgh’s Southside promises big things with its monster burgers and own-brand cola. The food is good, but the messy, unclean venue lets it down. A potentially great spot for a burger fix, if you can overlook the grime.

Review: Good Burger – a small, friendly burger joint in Dalry
Giant burgers and generously loaded fries from a friendly little takeaway across the road from Fountain Park. Recommended!

A clean oasis of burgers, dirty fries, waffles, and shake goodness is in the back of Corstorphine. Shakedown is worth a visit if you’re in the neighbourhood and need something with substance for your belly!
