Top Best Italian Restaurants in Silverknowes

"In Edinburgh's New Town, this pizzeria sells the city's best vegetarian and vegan pizza. Start with bruschetta topped with seasonal ingredients - our favourite is the iteration features vegan salmon, olives and rocket - or, if you're visiting with a group, the tomato-topped "focaccia dracula" which feeds four. For mains, try the cacciatora pizza (topped with rosemary potatoes, capers and homemade seitan) or the messicana (tomato, mozzarella, vegan chicken, fresh chilli and roasted mixed peppers)."

"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 is a legendary vegetarian Italian restaurant on edge of Stockbridge and the New Town, about a 10-15 minute walk from the city centre. While it is technically a vegetarian restaurant, most of the menu is vegan, or can be made suitable for vegans. They also have an option of a gluten-free pizza crust."

"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."

"La Favorita is an authentic pizza restaurant and take out establishment in Edinburgh. Their passion is pizza and they use the finest Italian ingredients for the toppings. Meanwhile the pizza dough is prepared fresh instore everyday and left for 48 hours to naturally mature before use."

"The beautiful union of a wine cellar and charming chic Italian restaurant, Divino Enoteca is not only one of the most popular Italian restaurants in Edinburgh. It also boasts a number of awards for food and wine, making it one of the best restaurants in Edinburgh as well. Located in the heart of Old Town, Divino Enoteca has soft mood lighting and an award-winning wine list that makes it a perfect venue for a romantic rendezvous (book for Valentine's Day!), as well as fun and sophisticated nights out with the gang."

"Divino is part of the Vittoria Group, a third-generation Italian family restaurant and popular among locals. The Italian restaurant believes in using seasonal, fresh, and local produce to create genuine Italian cuisine!. If you’re looking for a romantic spot or a cosy dinner with your family, they have a brilliant outdoor patio with charming old stone and twinkly lights."

"Divino Enoteca can do no wrong, and the outdoor patio is no exception. Charming old stone, sleek tables, a canopy of dancing fairy lights and plentiful greenery work together to create what is arguably the most romantic alfresco spot in Edinburgh. Worried about the unpredictable Scottish weather?"

"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."

"130 High St, Edinburgh EH1 1QS or Unit 3 Omni Centre, Edinburgh EH1 3AA (there are four more Frankie and Benny’s in Edinburgh). Frankie and Benny’s do a bottomless breakfast from Friday to Sunday. “Enjoy free refills on your favourite breakfast dish when you visit us before noon."

"If you need somewhere to get out of the rain, or perhaps your kids need some new shoes after running theirs ragged all over Edinburgh, Ocean Terminal Shopping Center is the place to go. In addition to have regular stores, it has plenty of restaurants so you can grab a family bite to eat, and you can treat the toddlers and younger kids to a stop at a specialty shop like Build – a – Bear while you’re there."

"At the heart of Edinburgh's flagship waterfront regeneration, Ocean Terminal is a state-of-the-art leisure and retail complex designed by Sir Terence Conran. It boasts 45,000 sq m of shopping and leisure accommodation on three floors and 1600 car parking spaces. The mix includes more than 50 stores, bars and restaurants, a gym and a 12-screen cinema, not to mention stunning views over the Firth of Forth."

"We are going to explore Leith today, so we’ll hop on the bus towards Ocean Terminal and get off near Roseleaf Bar and Cafe. The dish to order here is the Yin or full Scottish breakfast with sausage, black pudding, bacon, and haggis."
