Top Best Italian Restaurants in Dura

"A post shared by John Robins (@nomadic_revery) on Feb 18, 2018 at 7:31am PST. For some of the best vegetarian pizza dishes that Edinburgh has to offer, Nova Pizza Vegetarian Kitchen specialises in delicious vegetarian pizzas that are irresistible even for non-vegetarians. Friendly and welcoming staff offer an impressive range of vegetarian pizza toppings such as pepperoni, mozzarella and even vegetarian mince."

"Novapizza meets all your vegan pizza needs|Courtesy of Novapizza. Novapizza is a small, family-run trattoria close to Stockbridge, with an atmosphere so cosy you’ll feel like you’ve come home. Be safe in the knowledge that the pepperoni and mozzarella pizza you have been craving is in sight (and is completely vegan)."

"I’ve always loved pizza so when I went vegan in 2016 it was imperative that it remained in my life. Nova pizza is a veggie Italian restaurant and they have a WHOLE VEGAN MENU full to the brim with pizzas, pastas and sides. It was overwhelming but amazing."

"If you're down in Leith, La Favorita is the place to be (especially on Sundays when they have an incredible offer wherechildren can choose a main from the children's menu for £1!!) With pizza and pasta galore, everyone loves La Favorita and the staff, in true Italian style, make a big fuss over the kids. Definitely not one to miss."

"I wasn’t 100% sure Celino’s did doughnuts, but I popped in one afternoon to get some of their delicious n’duja when I noticed a cake stand full of bombolone, or Italian filled doughnuts. In terms of flavour options, there were only three to choose from: pistachio, custard or chocolate hazelnut, although plain sugared ring doughnuts were also an option!. These were, unfortunately, quite disappointing."

"Perhaps the best deli in Glasgow, this Italian stalwart has been serving up classic dishes and the ingredients to take home and try yourself for a long time. There’s a second branch open in Partick, with the first branch on Alexandra Parade - and both are equally worthy of a visit."

"Although it's famed for its savoury Italian offerings, Celino's is always full of Weegies on the go, grabbing a quick coffee before work."

"Caffe Centro is a family run restaurant serving a range of delicious and authentic Italian dishes. Caffe Centro38 George Street, Edinburgh. EH2 2LE. Tel: 0131 281 5458."

"Not many restaurants have a research lab, but Mono isn’t your standard restaurant. This venue serves up what it describes as “progressive” Italian food, headed up by chef Maciek Zielinski (who’s had experience in Michelin-star restaurants) and Italian-Scottish foodie Joseph Crolla. Mono’s take on lasagne with veal ragout, parmesan and sage is a sensation, while the duck liver mousse with blueberries, onions and cocoa is surprisingly but beautifully put together."

"Just a few minutes from St Giles' Cathedral, Mono serves modern Italian-inspired fine dining from its restaurant at 85 South Bridge. "This place is awesome," wrote one reviewer, "I looked at the menu and thought interesting...I walked in and it changed my life." It currently has a rating of 4.8 (out of 5 stars) out of 160 Google reviews."

"Last but certainly not least we have Artisan Gelato Edinburgh in the Old Town, with their authentic Italian-looking store that is the perfect backdrop for a shot of your Instagrammable ice cream. Their hand crafted ice cream is to die for and some of their most popular flavours include pistachio bronte Sicily, chocolate orange and cheescake...we will take ten scoops please. One reviewer said it is the "best gelato outside of Italy" and, like their neighbours Over Langshaw Farm, they offer vegan, gluten free and dairy free options."

"There are three different private dining rooms at Otro, which can be hired separately or together to create plenty of space for family and friends. The team here have event managers too, which means there’s a handily helpful process in place already to see you through your planning. Dishes on the set menus can be tailored to your preference and/ or budget but as an idea of style dishes that are menu mainstays are chicken liver parfait with chutney and toasted sourdough, and roasted sea bass with chickpea and chorizo stew and salsa verde."
