Cosy atmosphere with plenty of options to pick from. There were 3 of us and we had the bruschetta, polenta cake and prosecco battered brocolli for starters. The gorgonzola paired well with the brocolli and the polenta cake was a hit! For mains we had one of the days specials, Hake which was tasty fresh and reasonably priced. We also had the spicy sausage pasta which never disappoints! To finish we had the chocolate orange cake and brownie to share. I'm not a lovers of puddings but the chocolate orange cake was so light and airy. Really tasty. Service was great as usual. Gem of a place.

We had a lovely evening at Café Domenico. Staff we welcoming and attentive, food was served promptly and it was excellent value. Our only compliant (and it is good one) is that we left feeling too full - the portion sizes are generous!

Beautiful independent authentic Italian food situated just off Shore in Leith, Edinburgh. Delicious food & wine selection with the addition of a festive menu and selected festive specials. (With complimentary Limeoncello), definitely recommend all year round. Perfect for small family gatherings and date night's.

Food was ok. Prices were fair. Didn't appreciate the waite taking what felt like a dig at my elderly father and girlfriend for choosing to have just a glass of water. (Supposed sense of humour or not)

Visited cafe Domenico last night for the very first time,and what can I say I was blown away with the quality of food and service. The spicy sausage pasta was probably the tastiest main meal I've ever had in my 53 years on this planet. Most definitely return
