I would recommend Cafe Domenico but better to book we were in for lunch and was busy they also do takeaways at front of restaurant which had a non stop queue. The girls that waited on us had excellent customer service and a big smile.

A lovely and intimate restaurant with friendly service and tasty food. The only disappointment was the Caprese Salad, which was bland and very disappointing for the price with a single basil leaf.

This was the fourth time I and my family have eaten in the Domenico and have found it an excellent experience each time. The owners are warm hearted, generous people. For only one person serving, the service and attention are amazing. Great atmosphere always. It is my chosen place to go when in Ediburgh. Looking forward to our next visit. Thank you Domenico!
