Dionika Description
Dionika has re-invented itself and is working hard seven days a week selling some of the best Spanish food available in Edinburgh, including pata negra hams and manchego, all sourced carefully by Juan Blanco. Juan has added a tapas bar and restaurant, giving a welcome opportunity to allow customers to sample the goods before they reel into the deli on their homeward journey.
The doors open at 8 am for early morning revivers and then the lunch menu takes over until 3 pm. On offer for lunch are three tapas for £5.95 and there are croquettes, grilled aubergines, tortilla and steamed mussels, until the evening menu takes over. As a change from the traditional Scottish black pudding try the Spanish variety, the morcilla, or anchovies, octopus and a Moorish kebab skewer.
Dionika's speciality is its fish, fresh as it comes and cooked as fish was intended to be with minimal fuss and careful timing. A Catalonian flan sits well on top of all this, and should inspire you to hit the deli with a vengeance on your way out.
Your Reviews of Dionika
DougNolan (8 October 2007)
The food was excellent and the place had a great atmosphere. Obviously, tapas give you the chance to try lots of different tastes in one meal, and not one of the dishes we ordered disappointed. When we'd finished, chef and owner Juan Blanco asked if everything was okay, stopped for a chat, and gave us a drink on the house. In fact, he did the very same with everyone in the restaurant. I couldn't fault a single thing with the place and would definitely go back.
V. Satisfied Customer (23 December 2005)
I went to Dionika for a lunch and ended up staying for a couple of hours. Juan Blanco couldn't be more accommodating and friendly. The food was unbelievably tasty. I ordered the Calamari and the marinated pork which were both delicious. Dionika has now got an alcohol licence so you can get a beer, among which is Alhambra beer, and Dionika is the only place in the K you can buy it! All in all, the food and the atmosphere was great, and I’ll be going back.
