We had a fantastic evening last night at Papavero. We were a sizeable group. Greg and his team couldn’t have been more accommodating. The food was excellent, the service superb and they were very patient when we sat on. Thank you for a terrific evening!

Went here with friends, 2 pizzas, completely crispy too hard to cut, taste was ok but really struggled to cut through with my friend giving up after 2 slices. The mixed grill was 20p wee Willy winky sausages, frozen hamburger, the 5cm cubed of steak was ok and the haggis was a sloppy thing that looked like it fell out of an air vent. Tortellini pasta was ok. Garlic bread was cheap white bread with butter and garlic salt, service was really slow despite being the only people in there for 30 minutes. The calamari was in slivers. Brought friends here and completely ruined their stay in Edinburgh as well as our own evening all left really really disappointed and went to get food elsewhere after spending £100 here and all being very very disappointed

Visited whilst in Edinburgh. Waited over an hour for starters to be served - Bruschetta & Focaccia, which were not worth the wait! Mains courses appeared appropriately 40 minutes after we had finished the starters and I have never seen such a small piece of Salmon (£15.95) and I paid £3.50 extra for the vegetables. The salmon was very dry so they offered to cook me another piece a different way! Meantime I was so hungry that I ate the chips & veg then waited for a piece of salmon to be cooked- this was quite tasty, but had to be eaten on its own. We had already spent so long there we declined coffee & sweets - we were however given a liqueur. The restaurant only had 12 diners (& one takeaway order) but everyone experienced similar delays. The waitress did her best, but it all took too long. Ambience was lacking - more like a diner than Italian restaurant.

Me and my boyfriend visited this restaurant on Sunday 15th Aug in the evening. It was a really quirky place with a very warm and friendly atmosphere. Jagode was fantastic and looked after us from start to finish. We were so impressed with her efficiency and warm nature. We would also like to thank Gregor the chef for such wonderful food. The pasta dishes were outstanding, so much so that we have re-booked for one final meal before returning to London. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

The four of us dined here during a 3 night stay in Edinburgh. What a fantastic place! We were eating early and the restaurant was empty when we arrived. It didnt feel awkward as the waitress made us so welcome and chatted to us like we were old friends. Our food was hot and delicious. Lots more people turned ip as we were eating but our waitress was still as attentive. Would definitely recommend

The lack of customers in this restaurant should have indicated to us to not go in but the 5 star reviews kept our hopes high. These hopes were quickly starting to drop when I was served what looked and tasted like cheese on toast for a starter. I was still hopeful for the main but was also massively disappointed when after a fairly long wait (considering there was one other table in the restaurant at this point) a watery, flavourless carbonara was placed in front of me. I naively thought that carbonara wouldn’t be hard to get right in an Italian restaurant. I’m not one to write bad reviews but I’m writing it to just suggest it may not be worth the visit. The one good thing about this place was the fact they did accept taste card which reduced the price of the meal. Just a few minor improvements would have brought this review up massively.

What a little gem this restaurant is. A shame it was so quiet but the food was excellent. Piping hot and full of flavour. The Tortellini in Bolognese sauce was fantastic. A bit of a way out of Princess Street but worth the walk. Go on and give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

We booked a table a few weeks ago for on of our evenings during a week's holiday in Edinburgh and we received an email confirmation On arrival at the appointed date and time we found the restaurant closed: no sign of life and no answer to the phone number on the window or on our booking confirmation (which were different). After waiting 20 mins beyond our reservation time we enquired with a nearby (non-food) business and were advised that "the have been opening sporadically". Maybe an email advising us they wouldn't be open would have been polite?

El personal es muy lento y desorganizado. Las mesas estaban sucias. Cuando "limpiaba" después de que un cliente se fuera, la mujer usaba un paño viejo y sucio (omg). Servicio muy lento. Las gambas de mis amigos no se limpiaron correctamente en su pasta. La pizza necesita 2 minutos más en el horno. Muchos clientes quedaron decepcionados la misma noche. La camarera no preguntó cómo estaba nuestra comida cuando tomó los platos y no preguntó si nos gustaría algún postre. Esperé demasiado para recibir la factura y tuve que ir al bar para pagar nuestra factura porque teníamos que irnos y no podíamos esperar más. El restaurante necesita una mejor gestión! ¡Ah e imprima algunos menús nuevos porque los actuales están sucios y pegajosos!

Mi esposo había elegido esto de un sitio de reserva y, a primera vista, el menú ofrecía mucho. Una crítica mencionó un servicio lento, pero lo atribuimos a cuán concurridos serían los lugares durante el festival de Edimburgo. Sin embargo, quedó claro que solo había una camarera y una persona en la cocina. Los entrantes no tardaron mucho en llegar, pero ninguno de los dos, haggis neeps y tatties y morcilla envuelto en jamón, carecía de sabor. . . fue el budín negro más blanco que he probado en mi vida. Siglos ; luego aparecieron los platos principales. La pechuga de pato estaba exagerada a pesar de ser descrita en el menú como rara y estaba rodeada de broccolli y mini zanahorias cocidas en lugar de las papas fritas prometidas. Estaba cubierto por una especie de salsa espesa que claramente provenía de un frasco. Las gambas eran de color marrón oscuro y secas, y no se habrían servido en ningún lugar respetuoso que ofreciera comida de pub. las patatas fritas eran espantosas. A uno de los muchachos holandeses en la mesa de al lado se le sirvió una pizza claramente quemada. Sentí mucha pena por la pobre camarera, quien sea el dueño de este lugar debería controlarlo.

I purchased a Groupon voucher in order to give the restaurant a try. When you phone to make a booking, they have a voicemail system . The first time, the answering machine was full so it was not possible to leave a message. On the second occasion, I phoned three times and left two voicemails throughout the day- no-one got back to me. I suspect my mistake was to let them know I had a Groupon Voucher. Really not sure why they do Groupon deals if they don't want to take the bookings. Very disappointing!

Ordered from here off Just Eat. We could have got the same dishes from other Italians for around £15 but we didn't want to risk poor quality as we were starving, so we ordered from this “high quality“ place for £25. The food was late and when it eventually arrived was stone cold. The carbonara was basically plain spaghetti (like seriously hardly any sauce to it) with really fatty bacon (honestly 80% white fat and 20% pink bacon). You can see it in the photo - and that's after I tried to stir it to get some of the sauce from the bottom up. The pizza was a bit mangled as if the box had fallen on its side. We heated the dishes up which really impaired the quality but they were edible since we were so hungry. Wouldn't order again for sure but their restaurant service must be better.

My companion thought this was the best meal we had in a week though this has to be qualified by the fact that we were on a group tour and most of our meals were at hotels. The squid ink liquine with sun dried tomatoes was fantastic, the pizza was okay. Great beverage selection, I had two glasses of Falanghina wine and my companion had scotch.

Si buscas un auténtico restaurante italiano en Edimburgo, este es el lugar. Reservamos Papavero después de encontrarlo en Meerkat Meals para una noche de domingo. El restaurante estaba tranquilo, que parece reflejarse en las otras críticas, pero no dejes que esto te desanime. La comida era excelente. Tuvimos la focaccia e insalata caprese para comenzar que ambos sabían muy fresco. Mi novia estaba muy impresionada por su langosta bauletti por su plato principal, mientras que mi strigoli putanesca fue brillante. Lista de vinos es simple y de precio razonable; El verdichio classico que pedimos era muy bonito. El servicio fue rápido y amistoso.

Pooped in here for a quick meal before the theatre and wasn’t disappointed.My wife had spaghetti bolognase whilst I plumped for a Ragu pizza. Both dishes were fantastic in fact it was probably one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. Owner very friendly and good value for money. I will definitely go again.

Siamo stati felici di aver trovato un ristorante che rispondesse alle esigenze di chi voleva assaggiare cibi tipici scozzesi e di chi, da tradizionalista, ricercava un ristorante italiano all'estero.

The last time I had pizza before visiting Papavero was a takeaway from one of the big pizza chains, which was pretty disappointing. My food at Papavero was a breath of fresh air in comparison, and my pizza with spicy Italian sausage was definitely on par with any good pizza I've ever eaten in any other Italian restaurant. Accompanied by a fresh pint of Italian draught beer and a lovely dessert made me a very happy person! I'd happily recommend this restaurant to anyone.

At £8.95 for two courses at lunchtime, we didn't expect to get a homemade Italian meal. But, that's what we got … and it was delicious. Everything was prepared fresh to order (except the bolognese, which our server told us required three hours to prepare). The best item we sampled was the soup of the day: tomato basil.

What a find! we nearly booked this through a Groupon deal, but really glad we didn't. Sunday lunch menu for £9.95 for three course and each of them excellent. Sea Bass was really fresh, fish and chips too and all other course great.

Probablemente debido a nuestra visita (mediodía) estaba vacío, pero la música de los Stones nos atrajo. Nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos y tomaron el orden posterior. Las bebidas eran pobres y caras, pero el almuerzo y la sopa eran muy buenos. Precio razonable teniendo en cuenta que era el festival de Edimburgo.

Nos pizza, que era bueno. El personal es amable y rápido servicio. Por desgracia el olor en el restaurante era muy desagradable. El olor a aceite frito era insoportable y me hizo pensar si se vuelve a mi ropa y pelo. Si yo no tenía prisa, no me he alojado allí.

Empezamos con el antipasto vegetariano que estaba delicioso. Nos miraba y tener pan ordedered junto con este. Tuve la vegetariana que también era delicioso tagliatelle - muy bien cocinado. Mi marido tenía el tortellini que bolognaise realmente disfrutamos. Después de haber comido vimos pizzas que buscan ir a la mesa de al lado y un salmón delicioso topping con parmesano que buscan ir a otro. Que será de 2 más viajes a este restaurante para probar estas. El camarero era un hombre encantador suave. La buena está recién preparada y deliciosa. Teníamos un bono de groupon, pero hay otras buenas ofertas disponibles si la hora de salida de su sitio web.

The selection of whisky is great and the food was alright but felt it was way overpriced for the quality we received. We were also charged £8 twice for one portion of the haggis bon bons (apparently this is some kind of a service charge, ridiculous we had to pay double for one small dish) Seems like a tourist trap to be honest and I don't think we will be back. There are so many better bars with more reasonable prices and better service.

This restaurant had a great atmosphere and welcoming service, but I was let down by the food. The oysters were great, as was the beetroot salad and the cod my partner ordered. I ordered the pasta with Jerusalem artichokes, but really didn’t enjoy it. The sourdough bread also seemed on the stale side. I had been excited to try this place and was hoping for better. I would only go back for a drink and some bar snacks. I spent around £100 for the two of us.

I won't lie, I went in because of the pub name (it has an interesting historical background) but the food was absolutely first class. Bangers and mash were on point and the servers were absolutely fantastic. The prices were good, too. 10/10 recomendation.
