Best Casual Restaurants in Haymarket

Both my wife and I really enjoyed our meal, you can eat pub chain venues etc but you can’t beat a going to a restaurant and eating well cooked fresh food. My wife had the home made Gnocchi excellent and I had the Ham hough terrine followed by the Cod fillet melt in the mouth. We shared the cheese board.

I have eaten all over Italy and this was, hands down, the best Italian I have ever had. Staff was very efficient and kind. I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend.

Went here for my birthday and let me tell you I was not disappointed. Staff very friendly and tremendous food plenty flavour. Will definitely be back

The food was excellent. Simple Italian done well. However there were significant issues with the service. Our mains were presented to us whilst still eating our starters. We weren’t at all slow so there was no apparent reason. We sent away the first server and then a couple of minutes later another appeared with the plates again! They did not appreciate that what they were doing was wrong. It was a busy Saturday and maybe the serving staff were not fully experienced, certainly their reaction, or lack of understanding, might suggest this. However, I suspect the real issue was in the kitchen as the waiting staff would just deliver whatever was brought to the pass. I don’t know but it really took the shine off a family meal that was celebrating my significant birthday.

We held the Edinburgh Royal Observer Corps Association Christmas Meal her at the Amalfino Restaurant.The service was excellent, staff friendly and helpful. Food was excellent more than expected. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone.
