I'm still coming to terms with how cheap the Marchmont restaurants are! Ofcourse such a statement…read moreis always made comparatively, and it's unfathomable that one could have a (relatively fancy) meal out in New Town for less than a tenner. It'd be easier to understand if Marchmont was run down, and rats came as a side dish to the food, but this is thankfully not the case! Marchmont is lovelyyyyyy. So this Italian restaurant, yeah, is well good. They serve the typical menu of starters, pizzas, pasta, fish, meat and chicken dishes. I especially like that the pizzas come in two sizes (and more importantly two prices!) depending on the belly satisfaction and pocket ofcourse.

We did that...but pizza is life...especially NYC-style pizza slices...so when Civerono's showed up on our radar a 2-minute walk from our hotel...there was nothing to consider...this was inevitable. One of their pizzas was listed by Timeout magazine as the 13th best in the world. Okay. Count us in even more. Now, we didn't get that one because it wasn't a vegetarian slice, but if they ranked so highly, surely the basic cheese slice would be at least acceptable. Spoiler alert: it was. My wife and shared a single margarita slice, split in half for the two of us. We were between lunch and dinner, so the main goal here was to try this pizza, not necessarily to fill ourselves up before resuming our Scottish-appropriate adventure. It was good. Super thin as a good NYC slice should be. If it were the local slice option for us back home, I would be happy with it. We thought the dough was a little bit undercooked, so not quite as chewy or crisp as we would have liked. It had a good mix of cheese and sauce, and the flavor was great. So perhaps not the best slice we've had, but miles above the chain pizza spots. The staff was really nice. We were there at about 3:30 in the afternoon, so it wasn't really very crowded. They have salads, and also Detroit-style pizza (Though I think only in full-pie form and only Pepperoni on the menu, so not sure if a vegetarian option is available if you're ordering a whole pie. It's a small but welcoming environment with rainbows everywhere. If we had a Civerino's near us in California, it would definitely be high up in the weekly pizza rotation.

This little place really surprised me. To be honest I wasn't expecting much when I ventured in, but…read moreI was in the area and was in that mood where I would have seriously considered committing major crimes to get a pizza. Lo and behold I came across this ol' joint; looks like serendipity had my back. I was wary at first but through caution to the winds and ordered, if my memory serves me correctly, a meaty beast of a pizza with a token amount of onions so I can persuade myself I had a healthy intake of veg. Hey with the tomato purée on there that's almost two of my five a day. Couple that with the apples in the cider I'd had in the pub earlier and I was feeling pretty healthy to be honest. The pizza, when it eventually came, smelled awesome and upon taking it home and devouring it was not disappointed. All the ingredients complemented each other well - I'm not going to take credit for this, the guy there did give me advice on which things to mix and which to avoid - and I was stuffed well before finishing it. For the price (about £7 or £8) it was excellent value, and tasted almost as good again when I unashamedly rocked the old student cliché and reheated it for breakfast. A good find

The pizzas here are not quite to the quality of Domino's or Pizza Hut but a lot closer to that quality than they are from your standard greasy pizza place, but at really great prices. They do some pretty good student deals here, if I was getting a pizza on my own I opted for a large twelve inch pizza with four toppings which was £6, or if I was sharing I got an eighteen inch pizza with four toppings which is very reasonably prices at £10.50- just over a fiver each, which offers good value for money.

The soup was warm and comforting and came with a piece of bread on the side. The pasta and pizza were both a little saucy, but tasted very fresh. I also liked that they added fresh parmesan on top of the pasta. The ambiance was really nice and there was plenty of seating. For dessert, we shared the Coppa Rocher sundae with pistachio and chocolate ice cream topped with whipped cream. The ice cream was very creamy and it was a great way to end the meal. The servers were friendly, and the food came out without too much delay.

But it all came crashing down at the end when I went to pay and the waiter tried to guilt me into tipping - which is not a common practice in the UK. He hovered over me as I put my card in the machine and the dreaded percentage options showed up on the screen as well as "No Tip" and "Custom Amount." I felt I was back in the U.S., where there's quite a lot of controversy about these screens but at least the staff usually look away at that time. This guy helpfully explained that I could tip - or not tip. Yeah, thanks. OK, buddy. No tip for you. I should have gone to Wetherspoon's.

Their website looked really upmarket, with promises of amazing service and dedication to preparing the best and freshest food etc etc, so I was expecting it to be quite pricey. I wouldn't have minded paying twice as much as we did for the food, if not more; our meal was that good. We went for their 3 Course Set Lunch offer which will set you back a grand total of £6.50 a head (?!) and this place is now my favourite Italian restaurant in Edinburgh. It's nothing fancy, but then it doesn't try to be: from the second you walk in you immediately pick up on the family-run, authentic vibe and it makes you feel really relaxed. I love italian food and I've been searching all over Edinburgh for that perfect little local Italian place, the one you go to when you can't be bothered to cook but still want to go somewhere you know will be good yet cheap.

Posted on their wall, you'll also find their specials that include drinks and dessert. We went with a capricciosa pizza, risotto funghi misti, and penne arrabiata. For dessert, vanilla ice cream! Our food came out quickly and overall, pretty good. Flavors were a bit light and could've been seasoned more, but still good and didn't feel heavy on the stomach. What I really liked about the restaurant was the decor. It was totally my jam with a bit of the old world charm in the use of wood and their brick walls, mixed with modern fixtures and features. Definitely recommend this spot if you're in the neighborhood! Prices are fair and don't break the bank.
