"I try to avoid restaurants around the royal mile, victoria street and george iw bridge, as they are a super tourist hotspot that was over fee but I was pleasantly surprised at vittoria on the bridge. it is very italian, the interieur is beautiful and quite swedish (a little dark for my taste,) but beautiful. the waiting staff are super friendly and very helpful and as most italian quite charming. I was the first to arrive and was shown at our table, but it was right in front of the kitchen, so I asked to be moved really not lust to eat my lunch to watch the kp clean the dishes! Luckily to another table in the center of the restaurant we moved the menu. her a la carte menu is extensive, but they also have the lunch card with the £95 for appetizers we ate: polpette her own tasty meatballs in a tasty sweet and sour tomato sauce with a side garlic bread. that is a great part for a starter. I say it tastes good. the tamato sauce was in fact sweet, thick and very tomato ey. insalata caprese mini creamy mozzarella balls, lush wine grape tomato, oil olive with extra virgin olive oil. a really nice clean fresh plate of eating. for the net we ate: vittorias steak burger served in a briocheen bungalow with streaky bacon smoked mozzarella served with clobigen chips a tomaten ragu sauce. that was good for a burger when a little dry. tagliatelle alla bolognese a classic; eiband pasta coated with a rich chop meat ragu. I ordered this court and it was really good. the pasta was soft but not soggy, and the ragu was perfectly spiced with a light sharp handle with a rounded sweet at the end. undoubtedly the same wut as per Polpette starter. the star of the day, however, was the gnocchi ai funghi di bosco gnocchi with porcini forest mushrooms, with garlic, petersilie and a hauch of rich truffle infused extra virgin olive oil. this is just excellent and I was so jealous when my friend ordered this court; and a court I will soon order for lunch. the truffle oil raised the rich wooden farms of the Porcini plant. the whole dish worked and it was creamy, light, fluffy, silky and very full. Peroni beer washes everything down. I should have let this place really go a long time ago, it is a jewel in the tourist place! great eating too great for locals."

"best authentic pizza in edinburgh. if they are looking for the best pizza outside italian – they avoid the “pizza house” chains (the jamies ersatz italian and the inflated egos and the consuming feeling of the service in the small Italian delicacies, the lothian road and hannover street are popping up (think about Macho-Italian versions of missrsham without the spirit) there is also a large selection of pizza alternatives: pasta etc. but as a veggie I tend to keep with what the jolly made famous. if they want a real bargain and must seriously fill with the day they can be a three cure lunch for £6.10 (rather choice including pizza, which must be the best worth in the city. a decent bottle of wine is about £15 – the house red/white served in carafes is considerably cheaper, what if it is not fussy, is okay. I trust no one who is sneaky over the jolly – and these people exist. okay, okay, the place is big, bright, busy, filled with kitsch, and may always seem so slightly chaotic – not fooling, the place runs like a well-oiled machine. but that’s why it’s so authentic italian – there are couples who sit next to big parties “in for the Playhouse”, local individual guides “in for their tea”, enthusiastic tourists and the occasional inebriated local politicians (it’s beguished that alex salmond gets his pizzas delivered from here, but I have actually not seen “the pie man” sitting on the space! a traitor in the jolly?"
