Loved the food, service and vibe. Cute little restaurant tucked in the Stockbridge area. Perfect for visiting with little kids after a long walk around Dean's Village.

You have to update those prices on Google, now everything costs 50% more. Very very weak food for that cost.

We spent a weekend in Edinburgh and came to Pepe Nero for lunch as we’re big fans of the Italian cuisine. The portions were quite big and the food very delicious. Would definitely recommend if you are visiting Edinburgh!

Just visited Pepe Nero. What an outstanding wee restaurant, was able to fit 8 of us as a meal between Fringe shows. No problem. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, and they were reasonably priced , superbly cooked , pizzas, and pasta. Pizza boards all cleaned, deserts were lovely and again reasonably priced. I'm looking to book again for a repeat next week.

We had a delightful meal at Pepe Nero on a quiet Bank Holiday Monday. The service was exceptional—clear, straightforward, and attentive. The food was amazing. We ordered tagliatelle with funghi in a white wine sauce and a carbonara. Both dishes were tasty, creamy, and beautifully presented. The food arrived very quickly as well. For dessert, we had Tiramisu. Although I didn't love it (as I'm not a big fan of Tiramisu), my partner loved it! Overall, we had a wonderful dinner and will definitely be back. We highly recommend Pepe Nero to others.

I really love this little neighbourhood Italian restaurant. Nothing overly flashy just really nice food and great service. On a sunny day it's nice sitting outside and watching the buzz of Stockbridge. The staff are so polite and helpful (Chris is always good fun). Anywhere that cooks carbonara without cream is a winner for me.

The place was reassuringly busy, which is always an indication of quality. My starter, haggis croquettes, was delicious, and of just the right size to whet my appetite for the main course, succulent ravioli. The combination of the food, the company, and the warm evening made the whole dining experience charming. There were two of us present, so here is the complement of this two-part review: The salad was excellent; abundant, individual items served in just the right quantity relative to each other. Presentation-wise, it was wonderfully creative and aesthetically perfect. There was just the right amount of oil to moisten but not drown and just enough balsamic vinegar to flavour rather than tinge.

Overpriced cold pasta with unseasoned meat, and the saltiest salad I've ever eaten. Pizza was OK but mostly disappointing. We were fobbed off with the "specials" going in and foolishly took them. The first bite made it clear that they were getting rid of some old ingredients, or (I suspect) serving us food that had sat prepared since before we entered the restaurant. Part of the issue may have been that we went in around 8:30pm, which is quite close to the 9pm closing time of the kitchen. Although, we didn't know that going in and if you're going to sit us at that time it's not really an excuse. Staff were friendly enough and the bottle of wine was reasonable, and accounts for about half of the price per person. As we ate the staff were busy clearing up and preparing to close, which is fair enough and I wouldn't expect them to work overtime on our account, but it's really quite hard to enjoy a meal of cold tagliatelle and salted lettuce when you're being ushered out the door. I wouldn't recommend it.

I’m he focaccia with mozzarella is huge - goat cheese and mushrooms and calamari to start were simple done perfectly. Lasagna and mushroom tagliatelle were very generous portions and loaded with flavour. Couldn’t recommend this place more. Wonderful wine selection.

Lasagne (2nd time of ordering) & 'Salmone e Asparagi' with Victoria Merlot were super tasty, albeit I couldn't see sight of any salmon chunks but could taste it (hence 4 stars), and cold tap water upon request. Still decent value for money during tougher times for all. Staff were super friendly without being intrusive. 1 hr wait without a booking on a Friday night wasn't too bad. Recommended to 2 Canadian tourists on the street who ended up sitting next to us, who thanked us as were also pleased. Thanks 'Pepe Nero'.

Olives were very good. Tagliatele pasta was overcooked and ragu in lasagna was mainly tomatoes - barely could taste any meat or cheese, or generally any texture to it. The service was slow. On the good side, the dishes were topped with a generous amount of parmeggiano. Overall, the olives and parmeggiano won’t bring us back to the place.

Small place with a great food! I like the decor of the place. The staff is friendly and helpful. I like the idea of when food is ready it’s on the table in random order. Small place but selection of different dishes is great so definitely we’ll be back to try more of it. If you’re a fan of Asian food this place is a must visit on your culinary journey.
