BuonGusto in Edinburgh, City of

On cold and very wet December days, this cafe was a great place to warm up. I suspect it would be a great 'slice of Italy' at any time of the year. Excellent hot and tasty panini, homemade scones and hot coffee...very welcome and much needed. Great attentive and friendly staff. We will ready return (and have) to this great cafe. For us, a bonus is that it is nowhere near the city centre.

We stopped at BuonGusto on a longer trip out when we needed a quick sandwich for lunch. 3 panini and an arancini later and we had a decent lunch in a pleasant setting.

Came here for the first time for Italian afternoon tea, with visiting family. There were 7 of us and ordered 3 meat teas and one vegetarian as we have big appetites. Big mistake! There was so much food ended up taking half away in doggy bags! But cannot fault the food at all, it was so well prepared. The savoury element full of lovely cheeses, meats, the arancini was spot on as were the mini paninis. All dietary concerns were taken care off and full consideration for vegetarians. if that wasn't enough then came the lovely cakes. A really nice mix of brownies, cheesecakes and cannolis. Just tremendous and we never waited long for anything even though there was only one person serving. If i had one tiny critique, cappuccino could have been hotter - but most cafes are the same and always precautious. Will be back again and again. Staff and owner were so hospitable - lovely atmosphere for a neighhbourhood family run place.

Seems a nice, local Italian cafe but being a coffee snob, it's not great being served a black coffee with frothy milk instead of a proper Flat White , especially from an Italian coffee shop! Coffee is too expensive not to get it right.....

Food supplied for my birthday was gorgeous, great price, helpful staff. Would highly recommend for catering for any event.

What a fantastic afternoon tea we enjoyed, I'm not someone who is keen on the usual sandwiches & cakes type tea but we all loved the food from this place, ordered for the 5 of us but there was so much food I had the left overs for supper, fully recommend & will be ordering again

We did not visit but I ordered on line and got great personal service when I ordered a special delivery.

Excellent panini and very moreish raspberry cheesecake!! Staff are friendly and helpful. Dropped a star as it’s quite small and doesn’t have a huge variety

Wonderful fresh homemade Italian food. Fantastic service from friendly staff. So pleased the restaurant has survived and definitely a plus for the neighbourhood. Will be back - very soon!!

Everything I have tried from here has been great, pasta, arincini,lemon cake,Canoli,afternoon tea etc

Had an afternoon tea delivered today for my birthday. It arrived on time, was very good price and everything tasted amazing - we all loved it and will recommend to friends.

Ordered a takeaway Italian Afternoon Tea during lockdown for my Daughters 30th birthday. Food was amazing and such great value for money. Service great as well from phoning order in to collection. Would definitely recommend and will absolutely be using this business again.

We ordered a three course Italian meal for four people as a weekend treat during Lockdown. It was absolutely delicious. The lasagne was one of the nicest we have ever had including when in Italy. It was delivered on time. We heated up the lasagne while eating our starters. It was very reasonably priced at £58 and as a bonus there is enough lasagne left for tonight’s meal for all of us as well! (We got a family lasagne and it would serve 8 people!) Thank you so much!

Thus place is trying to keep going in lockdown - we supported it because we them to stay, and - virtue rewarded - we had a culinary transportation from them!! Italy in plastic containers... So we had a takeaway for 4 yesterday, of 3 courses, starter of arancini, main of veg lasagna and pud of canoli. But the portions were so generous we kept the arancini for lunch today, and 2 canoli did 4 of us! The veg lasagna came hotly recommended by locals on the Fb site, and rightly so, was *excellent* (the meat one's just as good, I was trying the vege one for comparison). But posdibly even better for me were the arancini that we had today (and didn't suffer at all from being kept a day) which were new to us - and we *loved* them, think even more than the lasagna... Densely-packed balls of perfect saffron-infused risotto, with a wonderful sauté of veg and herbs and lentils in the middle - NOM. And the canoli were just as they would be in Italy proper - crispy outside with sticky, rich, spiceg scented insides... Heaven. Phone to order for later, you can drop in & uplift, or they can deliver, within reason. Please help them - we *need* food like this to survive the lockdown!!! 👍😁

Was in the area and had some time to kill and found this little gem. Popped in for coffee and cake and was very impressed. Staff very friendly. Cakes were delicious and coffee was perfect - had a second one. Good value. Lunch menu looked good. Would definitely return if nearby.

Been here a couple of times now, and it fits the bill perfectly as a local place for lunch and coffees. It is a small place, fewer than 10 tables although there seems to be a downstairs play area for kids too. They do a...

First visit but will definitely return. We had the lentil soup, bruschetta and sharing platter - all delicious, thank you!

Made a booking for 10 people on Friday. Very attentive service, relaxed and lovely atmosphere. A true little gem for local people to use. Will definitely be back!

What a delightful Italian cafe! We popped in for coffee while waiting for our dog to be treated at the Animal Hospital - however I wish we had been able to stay for lunch! The welcome was warm and friendly and both the cappuccino and...

Charming little Italian cafe tucked away up Buckstone Terrace away from the hustle and bustle of Morningside. Lovely food & coffee, good service and nice ambiance. I personally recommend the homemade cheesecake, yum! Greeted in Italian which was nice! Will probably be regulars now after...

Lovely little Italian styled cafe. Great for lunches and even better for a cheeky wee latte and home baked scone. Or feel like you're in Goodfellas and have a lovely Sicillian Canoli. Both Dog and child friendly with toys and fun available downstairs. Friendly and...
