Veeno Edinburgh - Rose Street in Edinburgh, City of

Enjoyed exceĺlent meal and wine at this cosy Italian bistro. Pleased to discover a branch in Chester too which we will be visiting

Perfect tagliatelle Al fungi. Just the right mix of cheese, cream and saltiness. Alex made us feel welcome with his wine knowledge and excellent customer service.

Had the absolute BEST afternoon at Veeno this afternoon with Alex as our waiter. He couldn’t have treated us better and completely made our afternoon. Make him employee of the month!!!

Had a great time at the wine tasting, Alex was brilliant and gave us so much information and we tried some fantastic wines, will definitely be returning, perhaps for the afternoon T which looks amazing. Thank you for a great afternoon.

Great spot to grab supper. Waiting staff are super friendly and smoked salmon pasta was delicious. Something should be done for ventilation though as the windows were sweating. Surely could be managed better for a small food establishment, but regardless, the food was great.

Brilliant find, cannot fault the wine, food and superb service by Alex F. The sharing platter, pasta and ambience are all worth the visit!! Thanks Alex for the Cutaja Nero D’avola Sicilian doc Reserva!!!

Fantastic sharing board and wine. Fantastic service too from Alex. Really enjoyed our visit.

What a fantastic birthday dinner for my last night in Edinburgh. Alex, our waiter, was super knowledgeable and made our experience memorable. The wine from the vineyard was superb. The pasta was fresh and served to perfection. I wish we had found this place sooner!

Excellent restaurant. Best penne arrabiata since I was in Sicily. The highlight was our waiter Alex. He is terrific and made the experience so special!!

If you're looking for authentic Italian food in Edinburgh, this is the place to go! From start to finish, everything about our experience was incredible. The restaurant has its own vineyard, and the wine they served us was hands-down the best we had on our trip—so rich and full of flavor. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every bite felt like we were dining in Italy itself. Fresh ingredients, perfectly balanced flavors, and that warm, comforting feeling that only true Italian cooking can bring. A special shoutout to Alex, our server, who made the night even better! Super friendly, attentive, and really passionate about the food and wine. Their recommendations were spot on, and the service was top-notch. If you're in Edinburgh and love Italian food, do not miss this place! Can't wait to come back.

The pasta with salmon was phenomenal. Alex was a great server - super friendly and offered great recommendations.

We visited the restaurant as part of a birthday gift from Veeno, Edinburgh. The food was delicious as always and the service we received from Alex our waiter was excellent. He welcomed us into the restaurant with a smile and was very professional. He was very knowledgeable regarding the wines and food on offer, recommending appropriate pairings - excellent. A great evening had and we will definitely be returning.

We had a great lunch, delicious food and great atmosphere! Kids-friendly, with a kid’s menu and great pasta. The ragú and the carbonara were delicious! Great service by our server, Alex. Altogether, one of the best meals we had in Edinburgh!

There for an afternoon tea on an Itison deal given as a gift. Was early in day so place was very quiet and lacked any sort of atmosphere. The afternoon tea was a very different take on the norm and struggled to come up to the mark. If paying full price ( which was pricey ) I would be disappointed. Waiter could have been more attentive as we had to seek him out to get a top up of drinks. I am sure this a great place to go to for an evening meal but I would not recommend for anything else.

Warm place where you can eat very good Italian dishes. The staff is very pleasant. Don’t hesitate to stop by!

Fantastic service from Alex. Great food, fantastic wine and fun atmosphere.

Such a great place!! Food was delicious and atmosphere so relaxed🤩 Alex was amazing and recommended great wine. Will definitely go back😊

Honestly, what a vibe. Alex, you are a legend! Lovely space and so relaxed for a girls' dinner:)

Had a wonderful meal here using the birthday treat wine flight. Alex gave us lots of information on the wines and the sharing platter was fantastic. Will definitely be visiting again!

We really enjoyed our meal and house wine at Veeno ( we dined here in June 2024). The food was delicious and Alex was friendly and welcoming. A lovely meal.

Thank you Alex, we Irish approve 🙌😌

We enjoyed our trip to sicily thanks to our fantastic host, Alex. He made an enjoyable experience all the more memorable. Fantastic host.

I always love coming to Veeno. The staff are lovely and my server today, Alex, is a gem. I have met him here on a few occasions it’s nice to be recognised when you go somewhere. He’s very chatty but attentive to people’s needs. An excellent ambassador for the brand

Had such an amazing tasting with nibbles! Alex was great with had a great knowledge and great jokes. Can’t wait to come back!

Très bon restaurant avec des serveurs très attentionné.

I couldn't fault Veeno. The food was delicious and the recommended wine was fabulous. Alex was super helpful and personable, he was lovely. I can't recommend enough!

Great food. Service very poor. Ice machine constantly beeping. 5 people in and waitrd 8 min to order a coffe. Windows and floor covered in water. Shuffer to think of the mould underfoot. Disgusting.

Très bon accueil, délicieux et bien situé.

Came to Scotland to see the sights, nipped in for a glass of wine. Lovely establishment, will definitely be back to see alex again

On our last evening in Edinburgh we found this super nice restaurant, with the tastiest wine, the most delicious pasta (salmon and vodka is recommended) and a very nice waiter (Alex). Small and personal, cozy and cozy. Definitely go there!

had such a good time at veeno a couple weeks ago! alex and jack provided brilliant service, the sharing platter was delicious and the wine flight was ideal! best part was the tiramisu though, wow. will definitely be coming back soon.

Fantastic food and service 😋 Our second visit and fast becoming our favourite Italian restaurant in Edinburgh

I reserved a table here for an Italian meal while visiting Edinburgh. I arrived a little early but that was no problem. I chose an organic Grillo from the extensive wine list, which tasted excellent. I did not have an appetizer but had a delicious Ravioli with Nduja and Ricotta as a main course, but the absolute highlight of the meal was the dessert, a truly heavenly Cannoli so I left very satisfied.

We went to Veeno for pre dinner drinks, and we had the greatest time there. We were served by Alex who quickly understood exactly what we would like and came back with 3 suggestions for me (that all were unreal - but although the family rose was especially great I loved the “our smoothest” red) and one spot on suggestion for my partner (family red). He was brilliant at asking all of our questions about the wines. We also had the best tiramisu from the Chef Mario. I don’t even like tiramisu so that’s saying something. Overall great service and very sad we don’t actually live in Edinburgh to go all the time. Will definitely be ordering the family rose for the summer! Thank you to Alex and Mario!

Ik was aan de vroege kant maar dat was geen probleem. Hoewel het accent op de wijnen ligt en er is genoeg om uit te kiezen, zijn er ook andere drankjes te krijgen en staan er fijne gerechten op de menukaart. Ik dronk een uitstekende biologische Grillo. Ik nam geen voorgerecht maar had als hoofdgerecht een heerlijke Ravioli gevuld met Nduja en Ricotta. En dan het nagerecht. Ik koos voor de Cannoli. Oh, die waren echt hemels, absoluut een zonde waard. Al met al een topmaaltijd.

Excellent, it is a delight of food, the bread, the cheese, the pasta, the pizza, the wine, everything is magnificent, spectacular, really highly recommended, if you are in Edinburgh you have to visit it. I give it 10 out of 10. Thanks for the attention

This place is a hidden gem. Unbelievable food and wine. Second time going and we were a party of 9 and Alex looked after us so well. He’s so knowledgeable and funny. This place is so personalised!

Stunning wine, food and service. Our waiter Alex was great. Super helpful and funny. 5 stars all around!!!

We were made to feel very welcome. A lovely experience trying out the wine tasting.. our server Alex certainly knew his stuff and was very attentive. Will definitely return again.

Alex was very knowledgeable of the food and wine outstanding service. Will definitely go back and recommend.

Went to Veeno last night for the first time. The service and food were second to none. Alex was very attentive, provided us with information about the menu and wines. He always checked we were happy with our food. Veeno is a small restaurant but oozes ambiance. We will definitely return

Been here on numerous occasions. Never disappointed. Food wine and atmosphere always fantastic. The waited Alex so knowledgeable and friendly. Always keeps us right on the choice of wines. My new favourite place in Edinburgh. Definitely recommend a visit

Fabulous wine and food experience. Visited Veeno before and definitely going to have return visits. The charismatic Alex told us all about the wine and advised on food pairings helping to make our outing so memorable.

Alex, who served us during our wine tasting was very friendly, informative, and attentive.

Fabulous evening, absolutely delicious food and wine. Authentic Italian food at its best! Alex was wonderful and helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable. We loved it!

Great place for casual dining. Have been a few times and service by Alex is by far the best

Myself and my partner visited on Sunday 16th Feb for the valentines menu which included 4 courses and a bottle of wine. The food was absolutely exceptional, tasty & hot. Our waiter (Alex) was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. This was our second visit and we will definitely be back. Thank you Alex for making our visit perfect.

This is becoming our go-to spot every time we are in Edinburgh, and we were so happy to see our favourite staff member Alex. As always, he did a fantastic job - attentive and super friendly! The food gets better everytime we go and we can't wait for our next visit!

Have been here few times and again today food and service excellent.alex was working well with only chap cooking food would recommend

Lovely sparkling wine and Italian takeaway on an afternoon tea. Service was friendly and informed but not the fastest - not a place I'd pop in for a quick drink but a lovely space to enjoy some wine on a lazy Sunday. Would go back.

Really good experience. Valentine’s Day meal, not too expensive for fancy quality and authentic Italian feel. Our waiter (the general manager) Alex was a great guy, very charismatic and helped us with our wine selection and food suggestions. Would recommend for a good dinner night with your partner or a friend to catch up.

Alex was great. Service was fast and food was amazing. Cheers Alex for a wonderful night

We were served by Jack and Alex- both whom were AMAZING! Gave us so much information about the wine and the foot we ordered, left feeling like wine experts. Highly recommend for date night or drinks with family

Alex was our server and he made our night! Alex made excellent recommendations for dinner and for our night afterwards. The food was also amazing! We had the lasagna and the carbonara. The house Rose is from their vineyard in Italy and was so tasty. This meal was also so reasonably priced.

Both me and my friend never heard of this place before but definitely will be back. We came there yesterday for late birthday celebrations (I was gifted a voucher for Sicilian wine tasting) and our server ALEX ensured we enjoyed the whole experience, was very knowledgeable and we loved the chat and wines too 😉 The place is quite small and can get loud with other customers getting excited after a glass or two, but this is to be expected. Looking forward to coming back and trying other wines on the menu.

Small wine bar in Rose Street with an excellent array of Italian wines by the glass. Alex was incredibly knowledgeable about all the wines on offer. I would certainly recommend this bar for a glass, or two.

Lovely restaurant, food amazing

Excellent wine tasting experience! Wines and sharing platter lovely and service too!

Enjoyed a lovely dinner here with friends last week. We got a lovely bottle of red recommended by our server, Alex. He provided fabulous service all evening. All the food was great! Highly recommend the Grande sharing board, which had incredible cheese and dips.

Popped in for lunch on Sunday and was blown away with amazing wines and great service from Jack. The food is also good!

Superb little wine bar everything was excellent food wine shots service atmosphere highly recommend.

Not too big and very cosy with a lovely atmosphere. The food was hot and we didn’t feel rushed although it was a very busy night in Edinburgh.

The ingredients are so fresh. Staff very knowledgeable. Food delicious!

My partner and I came here on a whim last Friday (despite the storm) and we haven't been able to stop thinking about the experience! A cosy spot on Rose street which has delicious food and excellent wine. We shared a starter and then both had incredible pasta dishes. Our server, Alex, gave drink recommendations that paired perfectly with our dishes. He was knowledgeable, attentive, kind and hilarious! For dessert, I got the tiramisu and my partner had the affogato, both were heavenly and absolutely to die for!

Absolutely delicious, great service, great food, highly recommended.

Excellent food and great service

My second visit here, food is really great!

Great service, atmosphere and food.

Great wine tasting experience! Lovely wines and great food, perfect pairings and generous portions!

Good quality Italian food in the center of Edinburgh. Ideal for dinner and you can do different wine tastings The pizzas are a good size and the pasta dishes are large.

We went to Veeno Edinburgh and had an amazing experience. We ordered the Trip to Sicily wine tasting experience and were served by the excellent Alex. His knowledge and passion of the wine made us enjoy it even more and I would definitely recommend to anyone else!

Amazing, authentic and family run Italian. Great food and wine selection and very, very reasonably priced. Service was also spot on.

We had a lovely meal yesterday and Alex the waiter was so knowledgeable on everything from wines to food and even where to stay in Sicily. We’ll definitely be back 👍

Service ist sehr aufmerksam und nett. Das Essen war ein spitze, so gut haben wir lange nicht mjlehr gegessen. Perfekte Pizza

Excellent food, very relaxed and really pleasant staff, no hassle with anything. Been before and will go back!

Veeno is an absolute gem! I tried one of their wines and loved it so much that I immediately ordered another glass—it was truly exceptional. Knowing the wine comes directly from their own vineyards made it even more special. For food, I ordered the bruschetta and the lasagna, and both were outstanding. The bruschetta was fresh and full of flavour, and the lasagna was so silky. Every bite was delicious. The fact that they were offering a 50% off food promotion in January is beyond generous because the food is exceptional—it’s worth every penny at full price. To top it all off, the service was flawless. The staff were so friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better.

The ambience and wine collection was absolute. Authentic Italian taste by chef.

Veeno is a lovely little wine bar and restaurant, I really enjoyed my experience and look forward to returning soon! The selection of wines was excellent, cocktails were delicious and the staff were incredibly attentive and kind. The atmosphere was very cozy and relaxing perfect for a date or catch-up with friends. The food was delicious, I appreciated the selection of dairy-free mains, the penne all’arrabbiata was so fresh and flavourful. I would have liked to see a vegan dessert option but not a sticking point for me! The price point was already very reasonable, especially given the quality of the food and service, but we were pleasantly surprised by the 50% off food offer for January. I recommend you make the most of this! This place is a gem, I recommended for wine lovers and food enthusiasts alike!

Sharing voucher visit. I shall be back.

Excellent meal and lovely staff. Highly recommend

An extraordinary culinary experience! This Italian restaurant exceeded all expectations: every dish was a delight for the palate, prepared with fresh ingredients and an attention to detail that was evident in every bite. From start to finish, everything was simply exquisite. The service was excellent: the staff was friendly, attentive, and always available, making us feel welcomed and pampered throughout the meal. A special thanks to Jano, one of the waiters who served us—his professionalism and kindness truly made the experience even more memorable. A perfect place for those seeking the true excellence of Italian cuisine.

Came here with a friend and had the best time, had amazing service from Alex who was really knowledgeable about everything and gave us amazing recommendations! We had one of the sharing grande board and desserts would seriously recommend to try! Was amazing, and the wine was fantastic, was informed by Alex about which wines would be best for us. So good, will be back!

Very tasty food and plenty of choices of food and wines. Fast service. White wine was served a little warmer than I would have preferred.

Fine food, competent staff and fine wine.

Alex was our server/sommelier and he was incredibly knowledgeable and personable. Food and wine were both delicious and the lunch special was such a good deal! Def recommend! Our bill came out to ~150 and that was with 2 bottles of wine and everyone getting their own pasta/pizza

Great, service, food and just overall a great experience. Pizza and pasta, just fantastic

Lovely and interesting menu. Great wine.

Inventive menu, well presented and delivered in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere

Delicious food and friendly staff!

Good food, service and ambient.

Did not have reservations but they accommodated us and were helpful. Alex took great care of us, getting to know us, wine and food recommendations. Had the carbonara pasta and bottle of wine. Limoncello and sorbet for dessert, lovely! Great experience all the way around!

Excellent wine bar with large boards, pasta dishes and pizza that melts in your mouth. We paired our meal with a nice Merlot and finished our meal with a Tiramisu. Great experience!

Delicious food, cosy atmosphere.

Stopped here for a happy hour drink and some people watching. Highly recommend.

Very cosy restaurant in the heart of Edinburgh. Nice meal, super bottle of Rose and very attentive staff

Booked this restaurant at last minute, so glad we did because from the moment we walked in we were made to feel so welcome. The waiter, Alex , came over and told us of the origin of the place , he was very knowledgable and nothing was too much trouble for him. By the end of the meal we felt we had known him for years, he is definitely a cred to the restaurant The service was second to none and the food was excellent Would definitely recommend and will definitely return

Visited for quattro vini wine tasting, one of us had 4 reds the other 4 white wines. All wines were explained and accompanied by Italian food which complimented perfectly. The food was absolutely delicious as was the wine. The bread and oil was very good as were the cold meats and cheese. The host Alex was a great help and knows his stuff, we ended up staying for a pizza and a larger glasses of wine. 10/10 experience would highly recommend.

I booked an Italian wine tasting and pairing experience in Edinburgh for my boyfriend’s birthday, and while it had potential, the experience left a lot to be desired. The evening started out okay—it took quite a while to be served despite being the only ones in the small restaurant, but things eventually got moving. The wines and pairings themselves were lovely, so no complaints there. Unfortunately, the atmosphere was another story. When we first arrived, the restaurant was completely empty, but as more people trickled in, they kept seating everyone right next to us in this cramped corner, despite there being plenty of space elsewhere. To make matters worse, the table next to us spent the entire time loudly complaining about the service. Their pasta had been served cold, and despite repeatedly asking for it to be heated, the waiter never got around to it—despite the restaurant still being mostly empty. This went on for over an hour, which completely killed the vibe. After the wine tasting, we decided to order another glass each. However, just as we were finishing and ready to order another, the waiter came over and asked us to leave because they supposedly had another table booked in 10 minutes. Again, the restaurant was still practically empty, so this felt unnecessary and rushed. To top it all off, they added a 12.5% service charge, which didn’t feel justified since we barely saw the staff throughout the visit. All in all, while the wine and pairings were enjoyable, the odd atmosphere, inattentive service, and strange seating decisions made it hard to fully enjoy the experience.

This was an incredible dinner. The food was good, the balsamico was to die for, and their own wine selection was superb. All the waiters were very friendly and made us feel welcome. This is a must if you are in the area

Très bien mangé dans un beau cadre, service un peu trop rapide
