Had an excellent meal with friends and thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
Lovely staff and restaurant. Food was delicious. Dog friendly outside which was nice to see and owners kept them at their tables to not begrudge other customers.
Lovely evening, great food, just wanted the big pepper mill 😄
The food was absolutely lovely and the Italian craft beer they have is really interesting. I had the parmigiana to start and the gnocchi for mains, which does come with actual nuts on it, I just picked them out, and I got cheese on mine which was incredible. So rich and tasty. I would like to go back. The service was good, quick, just a couple of comments where one waiter burped very loudly quite close to me which wasn't very nice and they automatically add a tip onto the receipt which always makes me feel uncomfortable and I feel is unnecessary in this country.
Food was not nice and the manager was shouting at staff in a full room of customers. Cutlery was dirty and there appeared to be a bad atmosphere in the restaurant. This is the worst Piccolino restaurant I have been too.
First time we had been to piccolino and the food and service was great venison with pasta was for me a first really enjoyable and my wife's salmon was cooked perfectly we will definitely be back 👌
Zuppetina do Pesce was exceptional, sea bass was superb, wine from the family’s vineyard was like having lunch by a canal in Venice, staff were lovely, absolutely recommended.
Excellent experience would recommend to anyone I know brilliant tremendous
The servers were friendly although when we ordered cocktails, they did take a very long time to arrive, about 20 minutes. The food was really nice, I would go back honestly.
Mad busy day in a heatwave but the staff managed to deliver superb food in a timely fashion. The noise level was a little high, but given how busy it was, this was completely forgiven when the wonderful food turned up - thanks!
Lovely atmosphere, friendly attentive staff and the food was delicious. Will definitely visit again.
Very good service, good food, enjoyable ambiance. Will definitely go back.
Amazing food, amazing service and very welcoming. Another one of them hidden gems that may not look the part but the food and service most certainly delivery!
Thought it was piccolinos the restaurant chain but on arrival found out it just got the same name. Food was ok, limited drinks and food menu. Only 1 shared toilet next to the kitchen, strange.
This restaurant was fab. It was my partners birthday and they helped make it special. The staff were all attentive and really make our day. the food was amazing especially the desserts. We hope to go back soon
Good. It will be better when the lunch menu is back.
We had a lovely time the food was amazing and the service was excellent ☺️
Friendly staff and great food. Even had blankets for the kids.
Brilliant meal and even better service. Prices were very reasonable
This place never disappoints! The service from Leonardo and the team yesterday was exceptional as always. 1st week in tier 3 and wanted to come and support this amazing restaurant again. We sat inside for food, I had the bruschetta miste for starters as I love aubergines followed by their porcini risotto with a side of garlic mushrooms and garlic bread. Food was hot, flavoursome and the portion sizes were great! Friends had the soup or meatballs to start and then lasagne or carbonara. We then sat outside and enjoyed a few limoncellos alongside a few beers and bottles of wine. Nothing was too much trouble from the team, they were very attentive and friendly. A great 1st choice of venue to visit now the restrictions have eased a little.
very friendly staff food quality are good despite waiting time could be a little bit long
Excellent friendly service. The mushroom soup starter was "souperb"🙂 Both our pasta dishes were delicious and dessert was v good. A 1st class lunch.
Food was fabulous and great value for money. The lights were a little bright for my liking and there was no music playing. It wasn't especially busy (because of COVID) so it needed some music to give a bit of atmosphere
booked on-line,table ready on arrival,good service and food,no complaints from us.
An amazing place, authentic Italian food and top service too.
Great food service and atmosphere . Lovely evening . Highly recommend .
It was great as usually!!! We really enjoyed it! Thank you
Lovely good / great atmosphere we will be back thank you
Staff were polite and friendly. Restaurant is lovely and calming. Food was beautiful. Definitely be back next time we're back in Edinburgh. Made our night 👍
Absolutely amazing as usual. Food superlative Staff incredible Amazing atmosphere. Definitely one of the best italian restaurant in Edinburgh
Food very good, down side was no pizza in an Italian restaurant,
Had a delicious meal, served with great care and superb attention from Gianvito. We had two delicious courses with lovely wine. Enjoyed the spritz aperitifs too. Would’ve stayed for dessert too but there’s no savoury option and we’re all cheese or other savoury people. We had originally booked for a special event evening but on arrival discovered it wasn’t happening - had a great meal anyway. Looking forward to our next visit.
Good food, friendly and relaxed service. Very flexible about slightly adapting the menu to suit our group's requirements. Buona!
Excellent service and food so pleased we choose this restaurant for our evening meal A must visit for any Italian food lover
Good food, well mannered staff would recommend to any visitors
The food is always great here and this visit was no exception. Perfectly cooked and tastefully served. Shame about the absence of vanilla ice cream though...... And I didn't see any hand sanitiser?
Excellent food and friendly staff. Recommend this lovely restaurant. Would go back again.
Great food and service in a lovely venue. Highly recommend
We had a lovely time at Piccolino's! The food was good, very generous portions and lots of choice. I wish I'd had room for dessert as they sounded delicious! It was strange ordering and paying through the app but nonetheless simple and the staff were very good at explaining the system to us, especially Consuela who was very attentive and friendly. We're only visiting Edinburgh for a few days but I'd definitely come back here again and would highly recommend!
I enjoyed my visit and my lunch and I'm sure I'll be back. I was a bit confused by the app ordering process, and in particular I couldn't understand how the staff knew who the order came from. I got everything I ordered so all was fine, but clearer instructiins would have made me feel more confident.
Amazing food and amazing service. We have returned here several times and will definitely be back again soon. Food is fresh and authentic, the starters are so good I had to ask them to downsize my main course because it would have been a sin to waste any of it. We have never come away hungry. My kids enjoy the pasta bolognaise and the carbonara, while my husband loves the lasagna and I love the venison pasta dish. I will always recommend the meatballs as a starter because the sauce is out of this world. Our waiter G always gives us the warmest and most pleasant welcome. He is so attentive and we always have a relaxed and comical chat with him. He’s always very busy but takes the time to make our experience unique. The atmosphere is always welcoming and cosy. There isn’t a bad word I can say about this place. It has become our favourite restaurant. It will always be our choice for special occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries
Lovely food, great drinks and perfect service - thank you!
