One of the best meals and experiences we have had on our travels around the U.K. Not only was the food excellent, but our server was outstanding. She was friendly, courteous, and extremely helpful with explaining the specials and answering our questions. My mother and I will both come back whenever we are in the area.
Great tasty food, and very friendly people - this is a fab place.
Another excellent meal at Domenicos. Excellent food, friendly and really good service, lovely atmosphere and decent value too.
Warm, friendly, romantic , great food. I recommend to anyone.
Great food and atmosphere in this small but cosy restaurant. Friendly waiter service. By time we left every table had been taken so service had slowed but in this atmosphere it didn’t matter.
An old favourite been going for years and it’s perfect. Great food, great wine, great service and cosy restaurant it’s all good!
Excellent food and service. Even the small portions were a bit large!
Delicious food and great value! The portions are very generous! Great little place with a warm atmosphere and friendly service. Would highly recommend paying it a visit!
Love this little place. The food is always delicious and reasonably priced and the service is great. Super friendly staff too. Definitely one of Edinburgh’s hidden gems. Cute decor, by far one of my favourite restaurants.
Lovely food, wine and ambiance. Very reasonably priced and friendly. Booking recommended as quite a small restaurant. Good wine selection. Try the Primitivo, its delicious!
Fantastic find for us, a local Italian with gorgeous food. The menu was just enough choice and the service was great will definitely be back
Very friendly , authentic, great food excellent menu . The service was first class. Restaurant was very busy and team worked no -stop however always with a smile on their face Will definitely return
Such a hidden little gem in Leith. The best service you can't ask for and the best Italian food outside of Italy. If you find yourself nearby please get a table and experience this place for yourself.
Always a good night at Domenicos. A warm welcome, good choice menu, great food, attentive staff with a cosy friendly atmosphere. Would definitely recommend this tucked away restaurant. Once discovered you will want to return.
Lovely meal - fish beautifully cooked and very friendly service. Great meal to start off our festive holidays. Will be back soon to try the other dishes on the menu. Difficult to choose.
Absolutely superb food, drink and service as always. I’m a frequent returner and shall continue to do do. Highly recommended and thank you, my mum and I had a great time.
As usual a perfect Italian meal and total experience Can’t really be beaten Will be returning in the new year Thanks to all staff xxx
Excellent lunch, good atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff and it was all at a reasonable price. I will go again and will recommend it to friends.
An excellent lunch yesterday - starter of scallops & black pudding, main dish slow-cooked rabbit with linguine beautifully cooked then lemon liqueur cake to finish.
Had a lovely time. Food was wholesome and tasty Service was top notch Will absolutely be back
Spoilt for choice in this part of Leith, we took a chance by ignoring the unpretentious exterior of Cafe Dominica and stepped inside to be greeted very warmly indeed. The interior is small but delightful with a genuinely Italian feel, helped along by the cheerful and attentive staff. The range of dishes was somewhat limited but there was more than enough choice to make a delicious meal, including the tempting 'specials’ of the day. When the food arrived, we were absolutely delighted with the presentation, the ample portions and most importantly the taste of the food itself. Brilliant service, great food, super ambience and reasonable prices; what is there not to like? Highly recommended.
Superb Sunday lunch at Cafe Domenico. As always the food lived up to it's usual high standards - delicious and flavoursome.Friendly and welcoming service. What's not to love?!
Great venue, lovely staff - friendly, professional, helpful. Food delicious except aubergine bake under-cooked & spicy sausage lacking in "punch"! House red superb. Will return.
Absolutely amazing service even though the restaurant was full and, as always the food was completely delicious. A hidden gem in the heart of Leith which is well worth a visit.
My wife an I had a excellent meal on Saturday evening food was very tasty and well prepared the service was excellent and friendly. Will def recommend my friends to dine there.
The staff were all very helpful and friendly and the food was amazing! It was also reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend my friends to go and would go again myself.
The histess called to let us know that they were very apologetic about the time of our reservation. Stated that there would be a delay. Called 15 minutes after our original reservation time and welcomed us to dine within 30 minutes of our reservation. Offered complimentary drinks as an apology. Dining excellent was top notch!
Came for a visit with My daughter and had an absolute lovely experience. Food and service was excellent.
Simple food cooked beautifully. Friendly service in a bustling atmosphere. If I had to make a criticism, then I would have liked them to stock low alcohol beer for the drivers amongst us. Having said that, it did not spoil our experience.
Wonderful food, first class service and one of my favourite local restaurants. I’ve been 5 times and I’ll be back. Thank you for your excellent hospitality, we were made to feel very welcome as always.
Great food, service & atmosphere. We both opted for the specials, which were lovely. A little busy restaurant that’s definitely worth another visit or two.
Been here for half a dozen evening meals and had hundreds of wraps at lunch over the years. Never fails to serve something where isn’t top notch and value for money. Love it.
Excellent value for money. Food very good and decent sized portions. Staff very friendly. Service was quick but not rushed. Would definitely return and recommend a visit.
Very friendly and quick service - A great family business. Delicious food too! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Leith wanting some wholesome, hearty Italian fare.
Great food. Pasta was al dente and the gluten free version tasted good. They did bring the dessert with a biscuit containing gluten stuck in the ice cream which is a bit of a no no for celeiacs. But the ambiance was friendly and we had a great time
This is a charming little venue with an Italian atmosphere that serves excellent food including wonderfully fresh fish and the staff are very friendly and welcoming.
Great service... lovely fresh food. Had the chicken and sweet potato, it was rich and spicy. Perfect location on Leith for lunch. Would highly recommend.
This is a very friendly, family business. We enjoyed extremely tasty, well-cooked food and the chef willingly adapted the menu to suit us, sharing platter of delicious starters and small portion for one of the group.
Best little Italian restaurant in Edinburgh. Fantastic service and absolutely delicious food. This place is worthy of the name ‘a hidden gem’. Go hungry- the portions are Italian size too. We look forward to going back soon. We would give it eleven out of ten if that were possible.
