Al Fresco Giuliano's Bistro in Edinburgh, City of

Tafel een uur op voorhand gereserveerd voor 9 personen. Zeer veel keuze. Snelle, vlotte en vriendelijke bediening. Zeer lekker gegeten...

Since 2017 we have almost exclusively had dinner at Giuliano's because we feel at home there, just like in Italy....

Awful food.......diabolical. What a waste of money !! Meat balls dried up, calamari overcooked and cold, risotto poor. Would not go back. The staff were lovely, such a shame about the quality of the food.

We are a party of 5 ladies who visited in jan. we have been in numerous occasions - This was a lunch time visit - no greeting on arrival . We had reserved but no trace of reservation in book! Shown to a table given...

Lovely cosy dining. Great food and service.Good portion size, value for money. Easy access to Playhouse

Six nations rugby weekend again with wife so got to have a sit down meal, disappointing result at Murrayfield, rain coming down in stair-rods, wind blowing a hooley, and then to cheer us up, the welcoming lights of Giuliano’s. As we have eaten here several...

We were in Giuliano's just this weekend while in town for the 6 Nations & the result of the weekend, was our annual amazing lunch. We always book it early then look forward to it for 6 months and after, talk about it for the...

I wanted somewhere convenient for the playhouse theatre, booked in to here because I remember it being popular a few years ago. I can't really fault it, the customer service was good and prices reasonable I just felt it was lacking something. The food was...

Heerlijke gerechten, vlotte bediening en leuke ambiance! Een goede prijs-kwaliteitverhouding. We hebben er met veel plezier gegeten.

Table booked for 5.30 but although we were very early we were immediately shown to our table by a very friendly, cheery Italian waiter. Glass of wine served quickly along with a bottle of cold tap water which is often missing in restaurants in this...

Called for the Lunch Menu and wasn't disappointed. Good choices for starters and mains for a set price of under a tenner. It's not only pizza or pasta. I enjoyed pan fried haddock with seasonal veg and potatoes in a creamy lemon sauce. Washed down...

We called in to Giuliano's without a reservation. Almost all the tables were occupied. It was shortly before the start of a performance at the theatre opposite. We expected to be turned away or asked to come back. However we were politely asked to wait...

Myself and a few of my family had a girlie trip away to Edinburgh for the theatre. We managed to get a table and it turned out to be so lucky for us. The food was excellent and the waiters were brilliant. Clean plates all...

Eighteen of us pre-booked our table. All ages in our party and there was a great selection to suit all tastes. We made sure we booked in plenty of time so we did not have to rush our meal. Considering we were such a huge...

Absolutely superb and tasty food, wonderful service and very reasonable cost... Would recommend to everyone, especially if looking for pre-theatre meal! Mary x

It is no surprise why we return here for our conference dinner for 60 people. There is nowhere I know where people can order from the full menu, not have to pre-order and have fresh hot food cooked to order. The service is excellent, nothing...

Had a meal here with my family pre a theatre show. We had lovely waiters serving us and got seated quickly. I am giving this restaurant a 2-star review purely for the quality of the “Italian” food. I rarely make a review on restaurant before...

My friend and I had booked a table for two early evening as a pre-theatre meal (we still ordered from the main menu as we allowed ourselves plenty of time), while on a two-night break to Edinburgh. What a fabulous place - it’s an absolute...

Post theatre meal, was busy but service and food was good. Banoffee pie was like a cheesecake with hardly any banana or caramel, and the tiramisu was nothing like we'd had anywhere before, even Italy. Would go back, but not for the puds.

Lovely pre theatre meal at competitive price, waiting staff were very friendly and attentive. We were not rushed either which some other restaurants in Edinburgh unfortunately do.

We have been to this restaurant several times in the last five years! It was a favourite until tonight. We came last January 11th after our wedding. We returned tonight for our 1st anniversary, such a disappointment! I had the restaurant recommendation of meatballs. They...

A friend recommended Giuliani's and we were not disappointed. The meal and the service was first class. Waiting staff very attentive and made sure everything was ok. Will definitely be returning. Thank goodness I'd booked a table in advance as they were fully booked. Thanks...

Wonderful night great meal great service never had a bad meal recomend to anyone definitely Larry Sinclair

Visited before going to the Playhouse Theatre. I had carbonara and my partner had pizza. The carbonara had lumps of cooked egg yolk in it which a little off putting although it was quite tasty and my partner had a pizza which was nice. The...

We visited Giuliano's for pre-theatre dinner - first time here in a long time. Shown to our table immediately. Pre-theatre menu £20 for 3 courses was ok, full menu was an impressive selection. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was tasty and portions were fine....

Visited in December with my husband was his first time although I had been before. Antipasti sharer and fillet steak delicious. Visited again after being at lion king this tine with parents and our daughters they loved being able to get half portions of pasta...

I had the pleasure of using this fish and chip shop recently and the food was delicious. Service was brilliant

Excellent service and food. Choice of pre-theatre menu or main a la carte menu. Our party of eight were served with friendliness and not rushed We all enjoyed our food

Back to Giulianos again and this place is just fab. Had Veal Parmigiana and Husband had the Pollo Milanese. Beautifully tender and moist - aubergine delicious. Bottle of house red perfect. Waiter Jason, a keen Rangers fan, was just great, friendly, efficient and a wealth...

booked here whilst on a christmas trip to Edinburgh! from outside it seemed like a small italian restaurant, but it is decieving, large seating area and plenty of room. my food was fantastci, the best Carborna i have ever tasted! Would visit Edinburgh, just to...

We have been at this fabulous restaurant many times before in the past, from the Starters down to the Sweets and Wine it’s well worth a visit. Food cooked to perfection and using fresh local ingredients and produce unlike nearby establishments, also the waiting staff...

Have been here before, just as good as last year. They never disappoint. Obliging and great service.

Noisy family friendly restaurant, food tasty though nothing special. Service was almost a bit too quick, not really giving us time to digest between courses. Staff were very attentive.

We decided to book dinner here as weather very cold and wet and didn't wish to walk very far. Were attending the show The Lion King in the Playhouse and the last time we were here said it would probably be the last time as...

locale conosciuto l'anno scorso grazie allo zio residente in Scozia... tornati per l'Immacolata a fare un "giro" di 4 giorni,...

Have eaten here on numerous occasions, usually when I’m going to a show in the Playhouse theatre! I’ve noticed that the service and customer care have, gradually over the last few years, deteriorated! None more so that this evening! We were placed at a table...

Ho cenato diverse volte in questo ristorante di Edinburgo, dove mi trovavo per ragioni di lavoro. Dopo una giornata stressante...

18 of us arrived for a birthday celebration and enjoyed an amazing meal. The menu had me spoilt for choice but I settled for the Tripe in a gorgeous tomato sauce as a starter. And the Salmon Ravioli as a main. They were both so...

Lovely meal good service no complaints whatsoever. Shared starter then we went for the veal main courses which was nice and tender. The desserts were lovely good choice. Would recommend better to book first.

Bad service (except for one waiter), food was ok/poor, tablecloth was dirty, not a good atmosphere. Nothing good to say really.

Visited for lunch on Wednesday and the restaurant was obviously geared up for diners going on to the matinee show at The Playhouse opposite (although we did have to find our way through the roadworks to get across the road). Service was excellent. Good selection...

It was the closest dinning to the theatre. We found Giulianos welcoming and comfortable. They catered for theatre crowd with time in mind. Food served was "A" class. At our table for four there was not one negative word about the service or food. Wouldn't...

Friendly, wonderful service in a charming atmosphere. A much larger, more authentic menu than I expected to find in Edinburgh's City Centre, with a few local items thrown in for good measure. Great all around.

First visit to Guiliano’s, but it won’t be our last! Fresh food, friendly service and very reasonable prices.

Had a great meal here, right across the road from the theatre. As we’d had a long drive and were ready for bed we stuck to the basics - veal parmigiana for me and veal Milanese for husband (the menu specified chicken but husband asked...

My grandma and I went here on Thursday 24th October. We were quickly shown to our booked table where we both ordered a glass of Prosecco and some water. They were delivered quickly and we decided what to order from the pre-theatre menu; grandma started...

Love this restaurant. Had booked for a party of 9 the day before. Got there and something had gone awry with our booking and it had been cancelled by mistake. The owner sorted it in 2 minutes with minimal fuss despite the place being fully...

I met up with a dear friend from America who’s visiting and although we had agreed to meet at another restaurant close by, there were no tables available (due to the end of a run of the musical The King & I at the Edinburgh...

È la prima volta che mangio in un ristorante italiano all’ estero e sono rimasta entusiasta! Cibo di prima qualità...

Been to this restaurant several times and never been disappointed. Extensive menu, delicious food and great staff and service. Will be back.

We have been to this restaurant on several occasions,unfortunately the last visit was not good. We git a table,service fine to start with. Ordered a main each and wine,all of which was good. A large party,3 large tables arrived and after that you can forget...

Thank the Lord we booked as there was a sign on the door saying fully booked and this was 5.15pm on Saturday. So if u are planning on going and the theatre is on book. Lovely restaurant actually very big inside looks deceiving from the...

We visited this restaurant on an evening when there was a popular musical on across the road at The Playhouse It was very busy and a sense of urgency to move the volume of customers through to create space for the next wave Our preference...

My wife and I visited this restaurant today prior to going to The Playhouse Theatre and we were not disappointed, our lunch was excellent and I would recommend it to anybody who is visiting Edinburgh city centre.

Food was very good and reasonably priced however unless you're a regular your service is bad and you tend to be ignored. Long delays between eating a meal and plates being taken away. A long wait for waiting for the bill when it wasnt very...

Pizzería en la q se puede comer a buen precio con una comida aceptable, lo único q no nos gusto...

My husband and I visited this establishment on Saturday prior to going to the playhouse. We had limited time so skipped straight to main courses. My hubby ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and I ordered carbonara. We also ordered a Pepsi and fresh orange and...

Very cozy restaurant. Very friendly staff. The quality / price ratio is good and the time to be served was very fast. I recommend.

I visited the restaurant with a couple of friends prior to a music concert in Edinburgh. We chose to go there for the location, it’s situated just opposite the Edinburgh Playhouse. I ordered a goats cheese salad for starter. The size of the goats cheese...

Locale italiano sito ad Edimburgo. Di solito quando vado all'estero evito locali italiani, ma stavolta abbiamo fatto un'eccezione. Tralascio lo...

Comida excelente. Muy recomendables las pizzas y para pequeños, espaguetis a la carbonara, espectaculares.

Don’t let the small store front trick you. We reviewed the extensive menu by the front door and decided to take our chances on getting a seat. Once inside we realized the restaurant was quite large. We were seated right away, our wine, meals &...

Loved this place. We had dinner for 15 people and they coped marvellously. Staff were great and make good recommendations from the menu. Welcoming and friendly, very tasty food too.

Can’t recommend this place enough, had one of the best pasta meals I’ve ever had, I went for the Contadina, beautifully cooked and amazing flavour. Service was really good, and a real authentic Italian feel to it, price was good as well.

Restaurante típico italiano, regentado por italianos, carta variada. Pedimos un antipasti de fiambres y una pizza para compartir. Nada que...

This is an Italian restaurant owned and staffed by an Italian family which shows in the food they serve. From the outside it looks like a small café with not many table or diners. However, when you enter and get past the reception desk the...

Arrived at 12 noon, booking was for 12.30 but no problem. Friendly staff, we were meeting friends and we all had a wonderful meal. The staff never rushed us and made us very welcome. We were there for 3 hours and the food was delicious....

Siamo stati in questo locale diverse sere per cena durante il nostro soggiorno ad Edimburgo. Vera Cucina Italiana. Lo staff...

We were so glad to have come here again after a long absence for no other reason than infrequent visits to Edinburgh, and even more happy to meet the actual Giuliano, owner and man for all seasons himself,who looked after us graciously. And what a...

We had pizza, fried calamari and salad for our dinner. They were very delicious. The owner and the waiter were very friendly. The restaurant is very spacious inside. It’s very well located. It’s highly recommended restaurant in Edinburgh.

We were in Edinburgh for the fringe festival staying at the flats above the restaurant. A convenient place for dinner before a show. It was very busty but the service was good. The pasta was excellent (the meatballs, however, were not that good). Definitely a...

Went to Giulianos for lunch today and opted for the 2 course special. Italian is my go to food of choice and I can honestly say this is the best Italian food I've ever had from a restaurant. Would highly recommend to anyone.

We were looking for a restaurant near the Playhouse and a lot of people recommended Giulianos. We decided to give it a try and so glad we did. The pre theatre menu was excellent value and delicious. The service was great and the staff were...

Booked Giulianos because we had tickets for a show at the Playhouse. We chose the pre theatre menu but the choices were limited. However my friend had the chicken, topped with bacon and what was supposed to be cheese and had a strange gloopy gravy...

Four of us stopped by for dinner on a Wednesday night. Got a table right away then the wait started. It was over 10 minutes before a server finally stopped to get our drink order. Our dinners were good, served pipping hot.

Whilst visiting our friends she suggested lunch here. We received a warm welcome from friendly staff and quickly shown to our table. They asked if we were going to the theatre which we weren't. I assumed that they would serve us quite quickly if that...

Comida estava muito boa, cardápio diverso e a equipe foi atenciosa e rápida (o tour saia em poucos minutos). Awesome...

Vi spiste der 3 gange og blev ikke skuffede. Stedet er hyggeligt. Maden er virkelig god og veltilberedt, den er...

Though , being Italian, I am normally very reluctant to visit italian restaurants abroad, we decided to make this experience in Edinburgh !! Good , the atmosphere was good , a good welcome, the menu was variuos and with several really italian plate. We tried...

Visited Giuliano’s tonight for a pre event dinner. I am giving this restaurant 5 stars for the following reasons. The waiting staff are very professional, impeccable, highly trained and are very knowledgeable about the menu. Older professional staff rather than surely teenagers, makes the experience...

Μεγάλες και γευστικές μερίδες. Όμορφος, άνετος, καθαρός και μεσογειακά διακοσμημένος χώρος. Άμεση εξυπηρέτηση και ευγενικό προσωπικό.

Grazie a Giuliano's il nostro soggiorno ad Edimburgo è stato più piacevole. Si mangia bene (anche gluten free) ottima disponibilità...

Stumbled on this restaurant looking for an 11pm meal (completely sober, hard day working at the Royal Highland Show)...... great atmosphere, good service, fantastic food. Proper Italian!

4 day holiday in Edinburgh, had dinner here 3 of the 4 nights. Best Italian food I’ve ever had in the UK (also better than most Italian I’ve had in Italy). Amazing service, lovely staff. The porchetta and the panzerotti lobster was unbelievable

Siamo stati a cena in questo ristorante, che è comodo al centro. Il locale è accogliente e pulito. Il personale...

When we climbed into a taxi being driven by Andy, we didn't expect to be eating in an Italian Restaurant recommended by Andy himself. Thank goodness we took his advice we sat back and enjoyed our choice of lovely Italian food and wine. Thank you...

food was good and service good also ... would recommend this place . the ply down side is the background music otherwise it's good

We had the Pasta Nortino- it was penne pasta with bits of sausage in the sauce. It was very good! And I had the rustic salad with greek olives, cucumbers and tomato-great! I had the mint chip gelato for dessert- it was rich and flavorful.

I have been to this restaurant several times and loved every moment of my visits. If you want a proper Italian experience, do not walk past. I am half Italian and simply adore the tastes and smells I encounter, I am also a vegetarian of...

My wife and I were staying in a local hotel and they suggested this restaurant. The service was very good and the manager was very friendly. We had two salads for and appetizer. My wife had the Panzanella or peasant salad. It was just ok....

First review on here for a while... I work away alot, usually solo but I try and make it work. I dont know whether I chose the wrong dish (there is certainly lots to choose from) but I found my quite uninventive and a bit...
