The best restaurants serving Italian food in Edinburgh and Lothian

We had the most unremarkable birthday party at Toni macaroni last night for my 44 birthday. The party was knocked slammed a huge failure by us 9 people, and this failure was due in no small part to the weak work, weakness and lack of enthusiasm of the poor staff at Toni macaroni.

Great Italian style food in a unique setting.Not cheap but but also not ridiculous. Worth it for the quality of food and service. The associated deli/shop is also interesting to browse.

Brilliant children’s birthday party attended by my son who loved making his own pizza. Staff super and food was Devine.

Ordered online at 5.15pm, and was given an estimated collection time of 5.35. Went to the cafe next door to have a quick coffee, then went to pick up my order at 5.40, giving them 5 minutes grace, only to be told it would be ten minutes. Ended up waiting, along with another customer in the same situation, until 6.25. We asked numerous times for updates on where our food was, but just kept getting told 'soon'. Myself, and the other customer, had to go through to the restaurant side to try and get an update. I eventually got my food, nearly an hour after I'd ordered. Bearing in mind I'd ordered only 2 pizzas and a garlic bread, I have no idea why it took so long, especially when the restaurant didn't even look particularly busy. The food itself was basic, and not worth the price or the wait. I've had better frozen pizzas in all honesty. Used to be a decent place, but has went drastically downhill in recent times and won't be visiting again I'm afraid.

Very helpful and nice staff. Food was good and delivery quick. As you could say.of everywhere in this location it was overpriced.

Excellent and tasty tapas style Italian dishes. Unfortunately there was no red or white wine available, even though it was on the drinks menu. The beer, although good, came in pints. Slightly underwhelmed by the service, though it was made up for by excellent dishes and reasonable prices. We would go back, but next time would be nice to have a glass of wine too!

Been getting pizza for collection from these guys for over 8 years. Consistently delicious. Always friendly and reliable service. One of my favourite Bruntsfield establishments. Never change, pls!

Not use gloves on and is not igienic

Amazing place. Highly recommend

Visited Prezzo due brief visit in Edinburgh. It looked really great on the photos so decided to give it a go. We turned up in restaurant on time and waited 5 minutes to be welcomed as front of the house keep disappearing to sort someone else out. We have been seated at the small table, when having booth booked online. The atmosphere overall was really loud and we just felt ignored, on the couple of occasions we had to stand up and go to the bar to ask for service such as drinks. The only good experience during our visit was food. Really delicious and well made. We’re disappointed with our visit and hoped to have better time.

Wife and I popped in here for a quick lunch today and the food really surpassed our expectations. My wife really enjoyed her fusilli arrabbiata ('not too spicy, just right') and my lasagne looked fantastic and tasted even better. The service was excellent and we were really looked after by Emilia. Excellent value for money. Thank you.

Came to frankie and bennys livingston for a lunch with my fellow colleagues. I ordered a glass of red wine to then be asked for ID. I understand the need to ensure they are not serving underage people however I am a 35yr old woman who clearly does not look under age. The man who was serving was extremely patronising and rude I will never be back.

Pizzorna är riktigt goda.Tyvärr fanns det bara pizzor kvar när vi ville ha glutenfritt.Vi hade inte tänkt oss pizza.Trevlig hjälpsam personal.

The coffee is the best !!!! ( way better than any of the other well-known coffee outlets). Food is delicious ! BUT - premises are grubby and toilet is dirty and cramped and in need of refurbishment !!!!

Rubbish, lied on the phone, delivered not what I asked for, phoned them back and girl who answered very rude, eat elsewhere
