As the team at Edinburgh’s Piccolino will tell you themselves, no love is more sincere than love of food. Italian food, in this case, as Piccolino is one of the most delightful Italian restaurants in this part of the Old Town, right on High Riggs Street and a stone’s throw from all kinds of Edinburgh attractions. The authentic menu offers quality rather than quantity meaning you can be assured that whatever you order has been prepared with love by chefs who care about what they’re doing. Piccolino will warm your heart and certainly fill your stomach so reserve a table now – you’ll not regret it.

Frittura miste white fish over cooked. Short on lemon & garlic mayo. Fish soup excellent, bit surprised to be charged for extra bread with soup 🤷‍♀️ As always, I prefer to leave staff cash, and I object to a standard 10% surcharge ( for basically bring food to table 🤔)

(For Katie from Mint)We reserved for 10 and added another 8 at the last minute. The restaurant was quite accommodating. It’s a trattoria style bistro casual but great food. Service very good Borolo and Amorone also excellent.
