- Vittoria ‘On the Walk’
One of Edinburgh’s best known Italian Restaurants. - Vittoria ‘On the Bridge’
The perfect restaurant to experience a real taste of Italy.
Abstract
33/35 Castle Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2EL
It's important to set aside an entire evening for a visit to Abstract: a quick bite before curtain up at one of the nearby theatres would be doing it a great injustice. There's just so much vying for your attention here, from the mirrored pillars and…
Amber
The Scotch Whisky Experience, 354 Castlehill, The Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2NE
Amber is ideally placed to capitalise on the tourist trade – it's close to Edinburgh Castle and forms part of the Scotch Whisky Experience – but don't let visitors to the city be the only ones to enjoy its charms. Dispensing with folksiness, Amber…
Atrium
10 Cambridge Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ED
Residing in the upper echelons of the capital's food chain since opening in the early 90s, Atrium is clearly unafraid to move with the times. As those with coffers sufficiently well-lined to dine here regularly will know, the venue took a post-Festival…
La Bagatelle
22a Brougham Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9JU
La Bagatelle is a fine example of the popular local bistro. The décor is muted and homely, the walls adorned with paintings and sketches by regular customers, and co-owner Karen Perschke wanders from table to table chatting to her loyal clientèle. This…
Barioja
19 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DR
As the younger, funkier sibling to Iggs restaurant next door, Barioja serves traditional tapas in relaxed, style-bar surroundings. With large picture windows overlooking Calton Hill, their promise to bring you 'Spanish sunshine, whatever the weather…
El Barrio
119 Rose Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3DT
While the attendance of a bouncer on the door may hint at the party going on downstairs, a relatively modest exterior gives little suggestion of the fiery Latin spirit waiting inside. With a well-stocked bar – complete with exotic beers, rums, tequilas…
Bay of Bengal
164 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1QS
Located right in the heart of the busiest stretch of the Royal Mile, Bay of Bengal is a long-established curry house serving predominantly North Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine. Modest in size, it does expand outdoors when the weather allows. Inside, the…
Bellini
8b Abercromby Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6LB
Eating at Bellini, with its grand, welcoming dining room complete with chandeliers, candle-light and background opera music, is an experience to be savoured. This New Town gem is no place for a quick, cheap meal, so settle in and soak up the sumptuous…
B'est
16 Drummond Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9TX
B'est may only have been up and running for less than two years, but it's already a popular venture, attracting lively parties as well as courting couples with its cheap dining offers. Set menus include a three-course dinner for £14.90 and a two-course…
Bisque Bar & Brasserie
Bruntsfield Hotel, 69 Bruntsfield Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HH
The Bisque Bar & Brasserie of the Bruntsfield Hotel has been reborn following a massive renovation. The smaller bar area at the entrance leads into a very spacious, light and airy restaurant area with an appropriately pale-coloured décor. Breakfast is…
Blonde
75 St Leonard's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QR
Jokes mocking the fairer-haired may be ten-a-penny but this Blonde is certainly no dummy. Situated in a sleepy Southside street, the restaurant positively buzzes during the Festival due to its proximity to the Pleasance, but pulls in a regular crowd…
blue
10 Cambridge Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ED
In applying Slow Food philosophies, properly educating its staff and delivering superbly designed dishes, blue is doing a lot of things right. A fastidious sourcing policy forms the restaurant's backbone, the name of the game being those elusive goals…
Blueglass
45 Morningside Road,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4AZ
Occupying a prime location on a busy corner of Morningside Road, Blue Glass, with its crisp blue and white décor and relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere, brings a hint of the Mediterranean to Edinburgh's Southside. Café by day and bistro by night, it…
Bombay Bicycle Club
6–6a Brougham Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9HW
As this guide went to press, the well-known Bombay Bicycle Club near Tollcross was undergoing a major refurbishment. There are plans to unveil the new look in April or May 2008. For updates contact the restaurant directly or check The List's Eating…
Bonsai
46 West Richmond Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DZ
With the convivial hubbub of the closely packed tables, the sizzling steam and enticing aromas emerging from the kitchen, and the bold white, crimson and black décor, at Bonsai it's easy to imagine yourself in an izakaya in downtown Tokyo. And indeed it…
Borough
72–80 Causewayside,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1PY
Borough has long been one of Edinburgh's best-kept secrets, serving up cocktails and chilled beats, but just beyond the retro chic of the bar rests a small but perfectly formed restaurant. Mellow lighting from a galaxy of small, scattered light bulbs…
The Bridge at the Barceló Edinburgh Carlton
Barceló Edinburgh Carlton Hotel, 19 North Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SD
Britannia Spice
150 Commercial Street, Ocean Drive,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LB
Taking its name from one of the world's most famous ships, now moored as nearby in the lively environs of Leith, Britannia Spice has an overtly nautical theme that suits its mix of north Indian, Bangladeshi, Thai and Nepalese cuisine surprisingly well.
Cafe Hub
Castlehill, Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2NE
Light pours in through the high windows of Café Hub and settles on the cheerful yellow walls of this grand dining hall, that was formerly a church and is now the headquarters of the Edinburgh International Festival. There's a peaceful vibe in this…
Café Marlayne
7 Old Fishmarket Close, 190 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1RW
Both restaurants share the same name, have interchangeable chefs and waiting staff and almost identical menus of gusty, well-flavoured French, no-fuss food with a Scottish twist, but offer quite different atmospheres. The Old Town café is a charming…
Le Café St Honoré
34 North West Thistle Street Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EA
At the beginning of April 2008, just as this guide was going to press, Le Café St Honoré was passed from the hands of Chris and Gill Colverson, proprietors for the past 15 years and more, to Andrew Radford and Neil Forbes of Atrium and blue restaurants.
La Cantina
72 Commercial Quay,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
When you enter La Cantina, the décor and ambiance leave you in little doubt that you're in a Mexican restaurant. The place is decked out in red and green, and pulses with salsa rhythms. Ranch-style furniture is laid out in rows and there are sombreros…
Channings Restaurant
12–16 South Learmonth Gardens, Comely Bank,
Edinburgh,
EH4 1EZ
Tucked away down a small cobbled street, Channings Hotel is not the sort of place you'd stumble across by chance. Just a few steps down from the street there's a low-lit oasis of quiet elegance waiting to be discovered. While in truth it may not be…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8DT
'Authentic' may be an over-used claim on many menus, but at Chop Chop it's entirely appropriate. Don't be fooled by the garish red and yellow façade: it might look like any other takeaway, but Chop Chop is the real deal. Genuinely charming and…
Circus Wine Bar & Grill
58a North Castle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3LU
Tucked discreetly away from the style bar excess of the west end of George Street, Circus offers an oasis of refined charm, albeit of the more old-school variety. Entering through a small foyer, complete with decorative piano, diners are received in a…
The Clay Oven
86 Morningside Road,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4BY
Located at the Bruntsfield/Morningside crossover point, the Clay Oven feels very much like a neighbourhood restaurant. Well laid out, with smart décor and attentive staff, it's the kind of place you can rely on. The food may not rock your world, but…
Creelers
3 Hunter Square,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1QW
Creelers at Hunter Square has been wowing fans for almost 13 years. A range of tourists, regulars and locals – though not the goths that hang out by the Tron – make up the clientele in this establishment, which comes to life in the evenings. Although…
D'Antonio's
63 The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6RA
A brief sojourn to Italy last summer for owners Antonello D'Antonio and Carol Lawrie resulted in this elegant shorefront restaurant being transformed into an American-Italian style diner for a few months. But the chef-patron and front-of-house manager…
Daniel's Bistro
88 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
Situated in the modern development along Commercial Quay, Daniel's is a temple to all things French – with a good dose of Scottish thrown in. Owner Daniel Vencker is originally from Alsace, but is keen to embrace his adopted country in all aspects of…
De Niro's
The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6QN
De Niro's restaurant, once a stalwart of the Italian scene on the Southside of Edinburgh, has relocated to Cruz, the floating bar and night club, where it now occupies the dining room on the main deck. Built almost 90 years ago in Greenock, the former…
Dionika
3–6 Canonmills Bridge, Canonmills,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5LF
Dionika's welcoming owner and head chef Juan Blanco – who was taught to cook by his large extended family back home in Galicia, an Iberian region just on the Spanish side of the Portuguese border – would take offence if people referred to his restaurant…
Duck's at Le Marché Noir
14 Eyre Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5EP
If you are looking for an intimate dining experience with attentive service and classic, well-executed cooking, Duck's certainly fits the bill. It may be a bit out of the centre for true urbanites but it's certainly worth the walk down that steep hill.
La Favorita
325–331 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
The glow from the twin log-fired ovens is the first indication that pizza is taken seriously at this Leith Walk eatery. La Favorita combines the lightest, crispest bases (also available gluten-free) with a long list of both classic and more inventive…
Forth Floor Restaurant
Harvey Nichols, 30–34 St Andrew Square,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2AD
If you've ever shopped in Harvey Nichols, or even just walked past the window displays, you've probably got a pretty good idea of what its restaurant would look like. Retro-futuristic stylings, crisp white tablecloths and mood lighting from what appear…
Gabbro
The Salisbury Hotel, 43 Salisbury Road,
Edinburgh,
EH16 5AA
Gabbro is not just another hotel restaurant – it is instantly clear on arrival that this place aspires to greater things. The entrance can feel a little drab, but once you're inside the restaurant, you're in for a proper warm welcome and slick service.
The Gallery Restaurant and Bar
Weston Link, National Galleries of Scotland, The Mound,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2EL
Given its position directly under two of Edinburgh's most iconic buildings, at the centre of Princes Street and overlooking the gardens, the Gallery really needn't have been all that good to ensure regular custom. Happily, head chef Scott Brodowski has…
La Garrigue
31 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DH
La Garrigue takes its name from the Languedoc region of France and this dictates the style of food and wine on the menu. Warm orange and red-hued paintings from the area line the white wood-panelled walls and are also for sale, and hand-carved chunky…
Giuliano's on the Shore
1 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6JA
With its prime location opposite Leith's bustling shore and its family-friendly atmosphere, Giuliano's attracts a steady stream of regulars throughout the week, including lots of family groups. Live music from Italian singer Roberto Enzo on Monday and…
Gordon's Trattoria
231 High Street, Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1PE
Gordon Scott is keen to promote his restaurant as a family venue. And there is no risk that he will fall foul of the trade descriptions act, with brother Gary imparting his profound industry knowledge, daughters Daniela and Vanessa now involved in the…
