"Booked lunch here after hearing great things about this place from friends. I wasn't disappointed! Located in a sunny corner of the west end Piccolino offers first class dishes, beautifully cooked using genuine fresh ingredients. The portions are generous to say the least and everything we ordered was top notch. What sets this restaurant aside and gives it a definite edge on its competitors is the really excellent service of its staff. We were served by Lorenzo and Alessandra who were probably the most professional and friendly waiters I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. We also tried Piccolino's take away Panzerotti fried pizza dough filled with mozzarella and tomato) which were delicious. Looking for quality food with great service? Piccolino should be on your list of places to eat in Edinburgh!"

We were staying in an Airbnb in Leith and were too tired to go out. So we ordered from Piccolino through Uber Eats. We got Penne Amatriciana, Paccheri Al Ragu Di Cervo and garlic bread. Very tasty! Would definitely recommend!! View menu

I returned to Picolino and it was just as good as always. We started with the amazing Cozze a Piacere mussels, followed by the equally delicious Mixed seafood Frittura Mista. This restaurant was the highlight of our trip to Edinburgh, with great food and wonderful service.

My husband, 5-year-old son, and I all enjoyed our meals at this restaurant. My son especially loved the pasta and even asked for another serving. We tried the Polette as a starter and the Melanise for our main dishes, both of which were delicious. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Made reservation months ago thru OpenTable. Advised 1 vegetarian/1 gluten free. Arrived and found they had a special limited menu tonight without any gluten free items no regular menu. Surprised they had not notified us. Very disappointed. Left and found a lovely Italian restaurant only block away that squeezed us in and was delicious L’Artigiano. View menu

We had a fantastic meal, food was absolutely delicious we thoroughly enjoyed every bite and the portions were extremely generous. Our small dog was made to feel very welcome by the lovely attentive staff. The restaurant itself is very nice, every table full within a cosy setting. It was our first visit but certainly won’t be our last and we will be sure to recommend.

We stumbled upon a true gem! This family-owned Italian restaurant was a delightful find. The staff were welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in our dining experience. The food was superb. As a lover of seafood, I thoroughly enjoyed the top-notch quality, generous portions, and variety in my linguini frutti di mare. I highly recommend this restaurant, which is conveniently located near all the attractions of Edinburgh.
