Al Fresco
22 Union Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3NQ
There’s something of a Giuliano’s theme to this stretch of Union Street, with the original restaurant, the takeaway next door and this incarnation, Al Fresco, just a few doors down. Try and get a table before a show at the Playhouse opposite, however…
Giuliano's
18–19 Union Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3NQ
Situated directly across the road from the Playhouse Theatre, Giuliano’s has achieved Edinburgh institution status due to its popularity with theatre-goers, tourists and large parties – including hen and stag dos. Its cavernous interior is resplendent…
Valvona & Crolla VinCaffè Valvona & Crolla Vincaffè
11 Multrees Walk, Edinburgh, EH1 3DQ
Valvona & Crolla’s Vincaffe is only a short distance but several years away from the densely packed cornucopia of the family-run business’s original branch on Elm Row. With a bright, contemporary décor, evenly spaced, white dressed tables and a bank…
Amarone
13 St Andrew Square, Edinburgh, EH2 2BH
This vast contemporary Italian themed restaurant complete with pastoral photographs, high domed roof and colourfully lit ceiling art opened in the summer of 2011 and is already bustling. From the restaurant family that includes DiMaggio’s and Café…
Locanda de Gusti
7–11 East London Street, Edinburgh, EH7 4BN
The restaurant formerly known as Bella Mbriana continues to choose the road less travelled by and offer what they describe as a genuine Italian experience as opposed to the more anglicised fare available elsewhere. Tucked around the corner from…
Centotre
103 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 3ES
Centotre manages to pull off a neat trick. Despite the austere, ex-bank interior, from those lost days when financial edifices were akin to cathedrals, it still manages to maintain a feeling of warmth and intimacy in the evenings or bright and breezy…
Bar Roma
39a Queensferry Street, Edinburgh, EH2 4RA
Celebrating its 31st birthday this year, Bar Roma remains the consummate family run, and family friendly, Italian restaurant. This is a large, bustling, brightly lit place – and while they’re more than happy to cater to couples, this is a perfect venue…
Ristorante Ferrari
1 Merchiston Place, Bruntsfield, Edinburgh, EH10 4NP
What was once the Bruntsfield Post Office has now been transformed into an airy oasis of tea lights and exposed stonework, chocolate brown walls and cream tablecloths. A correspondingly modern yet classic menu accompanies a stunning wine list, offering…
Nonna's Kitchen
45 Morningside Road, Edinburgh, EH10 4AZ
With a warm welcome from the Stornaiuolo family, this corner venue in Morningside is everything anyone could want in a neighbourhood restaurant. One thing certain is that you could never get bored of the menu – despite a short à la carte selection, the…
La Partenope
96 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2AX
Named after a mythological maiden who died of heartache on the Bay of Naples, La Partenope offers a taste of Napoli on Dalry Road. This family restaurant is operated by a sibling trio: chef Paolo creates magnificent dishes, brother Renato is the…
The Glass House Restaurant
80 North Street, St Andrews, Fife, KY16 9AH
The Glass House is a Salvation Army church hall that has been transformed into an airy, contemporary open eating space, mostly using glass: on the facade from the roof down through a glass-fringed mezzanine, along with modern glass installations and…
Celino's
620–624 Alexandra Parade, Glasgow, G31 3BT
When a restaurant consistently hits the heights in the ways that Celino's manages it becomes difficult to ignore, even if located in a neighbourhood where passing trade is scarce, particularly in the evening. Stepping off a deserted Alexandra Parade…
Coia's Café
473–477 Duke Street, Glasgow, G31 1RD
An institution in the heart of the East End since 1928, Coia's Café is run by third generation Scots-Italian Alfredo Coia, easily identifiable by his smart braces. Coia's is one of only three licensed eateries on the Duke Street strip – and rarely…
Amore Amore
30 Ingram Street, Glasgow, G1 1QA
At the quiet end of Ingram Street, Amore sits mezzanine height above pavement level which, along with the smart furnishings, lots of sparkling glass and stone-bake oven, provides a pleasant sense of occasion. It's a warm and welcoming enough space, but…
The Italian Kitchen The Italian Kitchen
64 Ingram Street, Glasgow, G1 1EX
It could be argued the Italian Kitchen is a victim of its own success – it is almost always busy so service can occasionally stretch, and booking ahead is pretty much a must. Put that aside and what you get is a restaurant with a lovely atmosphere, a…
Guy's Restaurant & Bar
24 Candleriggs, Merchant City, Glasgow, G1 1LD
It's almost certainly worth booking at this well-established Merchant City favourite. At the end of the bar, the dining area is bright and buzzy, with some of the tables quite close together – more suited to social rather than intimate dining. Service…
SoHo
84 Miller Street, Glasgow, G1 1DT
SoHo is a low-ceiling lively place that specialises in bar meals and pizzas and seems one of the few places in town to be regularly busy even midweek. Service is sharp and generally smiley and the menu is Mediterranean-influenced, with a Scots slant…
Amarone
2 Nelson Mandela Place, Glasgow, G2 1BT
Enter the plate-glass doors and down the elegant stairway into this basement venue, and it is clear that Amarone is at the classier end of the Di Maggio's chain. There's the slick modern décor, warm chocolate and neutral colours, and mix of open tables…
Dino Ferrari
35–41 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3AT
Dino Ferrari is the new look for a much-loved favourite on the Glasgow Italian scene (it was formerly plain old Dino's, but the owners sold the Hope Street branch in 2011 and tweaked the name). The avuncular welcome and charmingly retro décor – both in…
O Sole Mio
34–36 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 1HG
O Sole Mio has been serving customers for 47 years, and since changing hands more than a year ago the restaurant still promises to not disappoint. The menu is very varied, the staff are exceptionally pleasant, and the venue’s new look is sleek yet cosy.
Fratelli Sarti
42 Renfield Street, Glasgow, G2 1NF
There is an expectation with Italian restaurants that the experience be one of feeling loved and entertained as well as fed, yet few manage to pull off the feat with such aplomb as Fratelli Sarti. There's a uniformity of excellence across all three…
Osteria Piero
111 West Regent Street, Glasgow, G2 2RU
This trattoria-style restaurant has an intimate but laid-back atmosphere – the wood-panelled interior creates warmth and the the service of beer from a barrel in front of the bar is a fun, quirky feature. To start, the seafood filo parcel has a nest of…
La Lanterna
35 Hope Street, Glasgow, G2 6AE
This family-run restaurant has been going for 40 years and it is easy to see why. Go down the steps into a welcoming dining area with dark wooden beams across the ceiling and yellowing cream walls and expect fine authentic Italian food. The waiters are…
Café Antipasti
305 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3HQ
There is a standard of service and meal in Café Antipasti that is reassuringly consistent if hardly exciting, although this reflects its location at the busy and less-than-intimate end of Sauchiehall Street. The waiting staff are invariably polite…
The Bath Street Pony
207 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HZ
After a few name changes over the last decade, this venue seems to have finally found its feet as the Bath Street Pony, now enjoying its third year in the guide. Ironically, the décor hasn’t changed since previous incarnations – the contrast of open…
