La primera vez que revisé este restaurante, a la entrada el personal era muy amable cada uno tomando tomo para reconocernos, bebidas ofrecidas muy rápidamente. El personal nos dio tiempo para revisar el menú, sin prisas, es un restaurante que atiende mucho al teatro que está justo enfrente, así que me sorprendió que no nos apresuraran. En persona en el 5 quería “Gamberoni king prawn only”, pensé que extraño, pero volveré a ello. Debo decir que la comida se veía apetitosa, sopa, lasaña como entrante, bolas de arroz, todo se veía encantador. Fui a por espaguetis papoletti , es muy común que la carne esté seca, pero me impresionó! , jugosa y sabrosa, la pasta también tenía muy buen sabor. La persona que pidió el “gamberoni king prawn”, obtuvo precisamente lo que pidieron, solo gambas con una ensalada, esto no fue culpa del personal, pero lo menciono ya que trataron de remediar la situación aunque fueron irreprochables. Lo cual fue bueno de ver. Pude probar un “langostino y estaban rellenitos y sabrosos! ¿Fue el tiramisú hecho en casa?’ La siguiente pregunta, fue contestada honestamente con un ‘no’. ¡Pero no impidió que se ordenara! Parecía muy sabroso, pegajoso pudín de toffee con helado parecía un ganador. Un buen restaurante sólido, se parece bastante a mamá solía hacer desde el interior, pero disfruté de la experiencia, el personal era abundante y feliz de ayudar, especialmente cuando se puso muy ocupado, volveré. La próxima vez, voy a comer Gamberoni lingüina!

La comida y el ambiente era genial. Pero el servicio estaba más allá. Dejamos una bolsa atrás y salimos en una noche oscura y lluviosa. Uno de los empleados salió corriendo, nos encontró (100 m más adelante) y lo devolvió con una sonrisa. -Muchas gracias. ¡Ve allí y muéstreles un poco de amor! 🙏😀

El servicio para 2 mujeres fue atroz. El camarero nos ignoró hasta que nos ‘llamaron’ al orden. Los camareros eran todos hombres y no usaban contacto visual en absoluto cuando leían las mesas. El camarero nos ignoró hasta que nos ‘citaron’ para recibir la cuenta. Incluso entonces dejé de esperar y fui al punto de caja a pagar. Fue muy decepcionante. He estado antes, pero generalmente con hombres presentes. Sentí en esta ocasión que el servicio era pobre y misógino. El hombre en el punto de espera se disculpó, pero ya era demasiado tarde para entonces.

Visitamos Guliano's después de un espectáculo de la tarde en el Teatro , tuvimos una comida hermosa y nos trataron tan bien. La comida para todos nosotros fue ordenada, aunque dos de nuestra fiesta se retrasaron. Ese retraso terminó siendo más largo de lo previsto, sin embargo, el personal les preparó una comida completamente fresca cuando finalmente llegaron. El personal no podría haber sido más servicial y no podemos elogiarlos lo suficiente. Es refrescante, en esta época, para obtener un servicio tan servicial, amable y educado.

Reservamos este restaurante como habíamos estado antes y lo pasamos muy bien. Desafortunadamente esta vez no estuvo a la altura de nuestra experiencia anterior. Nos pusieron en una mesa en la parte de atrás del restaurante - era oscuro y de aspecto sucio. Era muy ruidoso, lo que hacía muy difícil escuchar lo que se decía en nuestro partido. El personal era muy amable y nos sentimos como si fuéramos una imposición para ellos. La comida era preciosa. Lugar podría hacer con una renovación y tal vez un curso de servicio al cliente para el personal. ¡No volveremos!

In genere non vado mai nei ristoranti italiani quando sono all'estero perché lo so che non si mangia mai cibo buono ma da Giuliano è stata un'esperienza decisamente positiva . siamo stati trattati molto bene ,si parla anche l'italiano , anche se noi non abbiamo nessun problema a parlare l'inglese e i cibi sono buoni come in Italia. Giuliano segue tutto personalmente e ci tiene molto che i suoi clienti siano soddisfatti. È un esperto della ristorazione. La lista dei cibi è molto varia e ce n'è per tutti i gusti e i prezzi sono giusti. Noi ci torneremo sicuramente

My family was staying next door at the Holiday Inn Express so this restaurant was convenient for us to enjoy dinner on two occasions while in Edinburgh. The first meal we ordered was a fresh pasta for me (L15.40) and a Risotto Giuliano (L16,50) for my wife. Service was efficient,, the meals wonderful. Returning to the hotel a week later, we decided to dine again at Giuliano’s. For tis dining experience I ordered a Tagliatelle Bolognese (L13:50) and my wife their Vegetarian Penne pasta. Both tasted every bit as good as our first meal. Highly recommend Giulianos.

A party of 5 who had booked a table for 3pm on Saturday. Restaurant was quite empty and we were shown straight to our table. Orders taken and drinks served. Starters were bought out but before they were finished the main courses were served. Although the food was good I felt we were being rushed.

Rude staff and mediocre food. We’re a family of four and hadn’t booked. With only two couples already dining, we were shoved in a corner and made to feel like an inconvenience. After paying over £100 plus tip the waiter actually shooed us out.

I very rarely write reviews, but my experience at Giuliano’s warranted it. Firstly, the reservation was for my girlfriends birthday and upon entry was greeted with a cold reception. We were seated and the waiter couldn’t wait to leave us, this remained a theme amongst all serving staff throughout the meal. Firstly, the starters we ordered (garlic bread with cheese and arancini) could have honestly been bought from a supermarket, microwaved and served, sub par. Secondly, our mains, whilst they were not terrible, again felt like something that could have been purchased as part of a dine in for 2 from Tesco, at a far more respectable price. Overall, the food did not appear freshly made in the slightest. To summarise, the service was poor and cold from all front of house staff, the food was bang average/shop bought and to be honest, we couldn’t wait to pay the bill and leave as soon as possible. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

Questo ristorante ha partecipato a 4 ristoranti di Borghese ed è arrivato terzo, non oso immaginare come sia quello che arrivato quarto. Ci siamo letteralmente capitati per caso a pranzo di mercoledì 3 aprile 2024 e non è stata una esperienza positiva. Location 4/10 Vecchio, anni 80, pareti color rosso mattone, tavoli con tovaglia da trattoria e copri macchia bianchi di carta incerata che i camerieri non hanno mai cambiato, una spolverata e via, nuova apparecchiatura e avanti un altro. Menu 3/10 Menu vastissimo, decisamente troppa roba....quindi siamo andati su una semplice pizza.......aiuto!!! Quasi mezz'ora per 3 pizze, il ristorante aveva 10 persone, il mio calzone schiacciato come un omelette bruciato fuori e crudo dentro, aveva anche gli immancabili "meat balls" all'interno, l'impasto era talmente compatto da fare pensare che fosse stato preparato al momento con 10 minuti di lievitazione, che spiegherebbe 30 Min di attesa. Servizio 5/10 Cameriere italiano, camicia sbottonata fina all'inizio dello stomaco, non una particolare comunicazione verso, ma ho visto di peggio. Special (Tiramisù) 6/10 Ne ho mangiati di peggio in italia, anche se piuttosto asciutto. Conto 4/10 Margherita+prosciutto e funghi+calzone farcito, 1 cocacola, 1 acqua e un tiramisù 62 pounds e 50, circa 69 euro decisamente troppo (dopo aver contestato 9.90 sterline per un bicchiere di vino!! Consiglio? Se cercate un ristorante italiano a Edimburgo evitate questo.

I was so disappointed and we will give it a miss the next time we ate in Edinburgh

We looked forward to eating here as previously had a fantastic experience many years ago, so visiting Edinburgh we decided to book a table for 4. We were so disappointed. Our starter of brushetta was a shop bought baguette which was soggy and the tomatoes tasted raw with bitter garlic! We mentioned this to three waiter would didn’t seem interested- no apology! Main meals were ok - nothing special- lasagne had obviously been sitting as there was a film over the sauce. The dessert was supposed to be a panna cotta it was in fact a shop bought creme caramel!! Service was awful! No offer of refills for drinks and no offer for coffee! We asked for the bill and left without leaving a tip as the food and service was awful and waiters disinterested!! So disappointing and unfortunately spoiled our friends birthday night out. Will never go back or recommend again

So disappointed with the service delivered while we dined this evening. We were ignored while asking questions. Main meal delivered to table when not everyone had finished our starter. We have been going to Gulianos for 20 years as the food is excellent but the last 3 times we have been met with really rude waiters. For the first time In our adult life we did not leave a tip as so disappointed. Will not return unfortunately.

Great food, no questioning that!! The apple pie desert was one of the best I've had. The service was very hit and miss. The gentleman that welcomed us at the front desk was very kind and considerate. Very charming. Unfortunately, our waiter (wearing glasses) seemed to want to be anywhere else than there that night. Other tables were offered water, we weren't. When I asked him for a recommendation off the menu he seemed put out by this. When offering parmesan we only recieved about half a teaspoon before he walked off. In general, he was just rude and brought the whole vibe of the family meal down. Another waiter (with a beard) was serving other tables and was so friendly and chatty- we really wish we had him! The food was great, I cannot complain. But the service from the waiter we had, really brought the tone down. Such a shame. Try and paint a smile on, at least!

This authentic Italian restaurant is better than any other restaurant in Glasgow or Aberdeen that we have visited. We are both Italian and on each visit the food has been exceptional.They made us a lovely seabass fillet with very tasty vegetable side dishes. There is a varied selection of wines to choose from to suit every palate. Giuliano and his staff are so attentive and value each customer. Definately do not miss out on going to this restaurant located opposite from thr Edinburgh Playhouse and close to the Holiday Inn IHG Edinburgh city centre.

What a great restaurant. We were on a tour and had the opportunity to eat at Giuliano's. We were on our own for dinner and decided to eat close to the hotel. What a find. This Italian restaurant offered many varieties of dishes. We noticed the large serving sizes so we decided to share. Marcia our waitress came out with our one entree on two plates. We ordered a seafood appetizer and a seafood spaghetti dish. So Good!! And you can't leave an Italian restaurant without tiramisu. So if you are in Edinburgh, stop by Giuliano's.

We went for a meal at Guilliano's before seeing a show at the Playhouse. On entering the restaurant, we were instantly transported to a 1990s canteen-style restaurant, with fake pillars, odd photographic murals, paper table cloths (that did not seem to be changed when the...

We just randomly checked out this lovely restaurant. We arrived at around 7.45 without a reservation. The place was buzzing with a lovely atmosphere and plenty of customers but we were welcomed and given a nice table. Every bite of the 2 set menu meals...

Really lovely, fresh, authentic food. Service was prompt and waiter was friendly. Nice atmosphere. Bathrooms could do with a little TLC and updating but over all, very clean. Will definitely return!

Excellent food and place was lively. The bruschetta was amazing. I had the tagliatelle with sausage, cream, peas and it was very good. My friend had pizza and it was good. Service was very good but not exceptional.

Absolutely wonderful experience; the food was sublime, the service quick and personal, and the atmosphere perfect. Four of us went out and all had different meals, and every one was perfect. Looking forward to visiting again

Astonished this place got a Bib Gourmand. As someone who spends quite a bit of time in Italy, this was a crashing disappointment. Italian cooking - and the Italians - are all about generosity, heart, big flavour and loads of personality. This is the antithesis of typical Italian hospitality, tiny parsimonious portions, most dishes tasted the same (salty) and it all felt quite mean spirited and sad. We were recommended to have 8 or 9 dishes to share between 5 of us, which we did, and were advised they’d come to the table when they were ready - fine. However they actually came out one at a time, meaning there there five of us trying to share a tiny plate. Pasta portions were so small, we each got one measly forkful. We got three sad tortolinni to share between 5- where’s the joy in that? Massively overpriced for what it was - honestly should have gone to one of the longstanding trats across the road, at least I wouldn’t have left hungry. I’ve given it two stars purely because our waitress was lovely, otherwise it would have been one.

On our way to our hotel after attending a wedding we decided to call and get something to eat it had been a long day and we were hungry. We had seen Bocca Bona the day before so called in, they were preparing to close but they insisted on making a pizza for us. The pizza was delicious and we can’t thank them enough for their kindness. We would highly recommend this pizzeria for their super service and delicious pizza.

Em uma caminhada agradável em família, nos deparamos com esta simpática e aconchegante casa italiana, próxima a região central de Edimburgo. Café muito saboroso, doces deliciosos, além de produtos de origem italiana.

Booked a table online. Got an email back to confirm. Turned up for dinner and restaurant was completely closed (looks like it had been for some time), even though it still showed as open online. Very frustrating.

Al pasar, entré aquí y me recibió Robert, quien es el gerente. Ambiente muy agradable y Robert es obviamente feliz en su trabajo que se reflejó en su alegre y servicial manera. Recomiendo encarecidamente este pub que incluso tiene una explicación de su nombre en la pared.
