The best restaurants serving Italian food in Edinburgh and Lothian

I love this wee authentic Italian cafe, great for grabbing a bite to eat and coffee and watching the world go by. Nice coffees, fantastic bakery food and the meals are tasty and proper homemade with fresh incredients.

Super yummy huge choice of flavours. We got 3 scoop tubs. Grapefruit, whisky & mango . Italian cherry, peach cobbler, strawberry. Absolutely delicious

Lovely place and amazing food, staff couldn't be more friendly or helpful especially jamie serving the drinks, definely will be going back and highly recommend.

This pizza is the very best pizza in the whole of East Lothian!!! We have been going for over 15 years and returned today for the first time after the pandemic and it’s even better than ever. Amazing And now they deliver! Seriously the finest food in the area and the best customer service ever. An authentic Italian establishment. Thanks again!! Brian

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.

Great decor and lovely food particularly thr desserts! The staff were very nice too. Just a shame it was a bit empty but it was New Year's Eve.

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.

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.

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.

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.

5 tables and we were told 45 mins wait. Not that express after all.

Ordered a latte, flat white and cappuccino- all served in same cups and all tasted the same Cheesecake bland and not worth the money No breakfasts available at noon No rush to go back

Linda was fantastic, very polite and attentive!

Food was excellent, nice relaxing atmosphere, the best lasagne I've ever had!!

Authentic, delicious italian food with super comfortable atmosphere
