Divino Enoteca
5 Merchant Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QD
Divino is the charming, seductive brother to fun-loving sister restaurant Vittoria upstairs. Pretty well hidden under George IV Bridge, this wine bar and restaurant combines candle-lit romance with cutting-edge wine gadgetry. In its strictest sense, an…
Ecco Vino
19 Cockburn Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1BP
This understated, grown-up wine bar has been calmly getting it right for over a decade. The bottles that line the walls are laid out intuitively in the wine list, and there’s a reassuringly generous hand with the advice and the tasting glasses if you’re…
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…
Gordon's Trattoria
231 High Street, Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1PE

Café Marina
61 Cockburn Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1BS
Forget Ikea: this is where you’ll find the best meatballs in town. They're more of a hearty sausage shape than a ball here: get them cut up in pasta or squeezed into a ciabatta for a chin-dripping panini – but whatever you do, get them. With just a…
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…
Prezzo
25 Pier Place,
Edinburgh,
EH6 4LP
Prezzo in Edinburgh's Newhaven Harbour is one of two sojourns north of the border for an ambitious London-based chain that aims to offer value-for-money Italian food in stylish contemporary surrounds. An aim which has, to some extent, been accomplished…
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…
Ristorante Sambuca
101–103 Causewayside,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1QG
Nestled on Causewayside, off the south-east tip of the Meadows, this humble little Italian restaurant produces dishes that are quite different – principally the ones that have a trademark shot of sambuca drizzled over them as they are served. The spirit…
Jolly Ristorante & Pizzeria
9 Elm Row, Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH7 4AA
A bright red sign pronouncing the restaurant's whereabouts cheerfully stands out amid Elm Row's other established businesses, beckoning in passers-by from the bustle of the town centre. The interior is dark and slightly worn by contrast, but incoming…
Positano
85–87 Newington Road,

La Favorita
325–331 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
The hectic craft of kneading and folding pizza dough is the first thing you see on entering this busy Leith Walk eatery. Walk past the front counter, through the lively, three-pronged dining area, and you'll notice most diners are working their way…
Giuliano's on the Shore
1 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6JA
Kids have been making their own pizza at Giuliano’s on the Shore for the best part of 20 years, with many growing up and bringing their own children to pick up the prized party hat. They are warmly welcomed by long-serving head waiter Daniele, who…
