A real treat

The menu here was to die for. They've really put so much thought into creating a full vegan Italian menu, and it shows. Everything on the menu looked good, and we could easily have gone back another night if we'd had more time in Edinburgh.

Outstanding vegan pizza

Best and most authentic vegan pizza I've had. The vegan cheese is great, as are the fake meats. If you've been missing the quality of proper Italian pizza, look no further. Maybe slightly on the expensive side if there was a downside, although not massively in the context of Edinburgh

Best vegan Italian

We have been a few times over the years and it just gets better and better. Great use of vegan cheeses to create different flavours. Fully recommend any of the pizzas the base is super and the toppings tasty and succulent. The blue cheese starters are so fresh the best I have ever had. This place will not disappoint. It’s small so book in advance. Final word Goya to the super friendly staff thank you so much

Pros: Staff, Pizza, Blue cheese starters

Delicious pizza!

We only had pizzas and focaccia, but they were great. We had the Quattro Stagioni and the Serena G N , both were excellent. Highly recommend this fully vegan spot!

Outstanding vegan pasta!

I tend to eat a fair amount of pasta at home, so if I'm going to pay money for it out, I want it to be good. And I was not disappointed by my visit. I loved the cosy environment and vibe, friendly service and a menu with a good range of totally vegan pasta and pizza dishes.

Alongside the main menu there were specials, which included pistachio cheesecake, so from the outset, I knew I needed to save some room for that! We had the garlic cheese break and tomato soup for starters - both delicious. For mains we both went for pasta - garlic and chilli, and the carbonara. Both were very very good. I suspect the pizzas are fab too but that's for another visit.

Pros: Great vibe, Fab menu, High quality

PROBABLY the best vegan Italian in Edinburgh

Great quality food, adequate portion sizes and okay service. Overall an above average experience that's worth trying for the sake of a decadent vegan feast 😋

Pros: Hearty Italian food, Good decor and atmosphere, Speedy service

Cons: A bit out the way, Could use a face-lift, Fewer staff meaning less personal service

Good food!

Enjoyed the bolognese pizza and the carbonara. But I preferred the other vegan Italian in Edinburgh, was more rustic. Service was good and still delicious and I would go back.

Brilliant

First time visiting the city and I’m so glad we chose to come here. My pizza was fantastic, really good quality ingredients and the cheese was not at all overpowering and oily as I find some can be. We really enjoyed the bread and balsamic to start and i’m gutted there wasn’t room or time for dessert. It was also great to have full freedom of choice with a wine list. Very nice!

Pros: Great quality / fresh, Good location, Great variety of food and drink

Delicious pizza and pasta

Pasta was so good - Prosecco was lovely. My boyfriend had the pizza and it really was as good as they say. Simple decor and lovely staff. Accommodating, I only wanted ice cream (also tasty) and they got me a scoop even tho it wasn’t off the menu

Pros: Tasty cheese pizzas

Great little vegan Italian

Loved this little restaraunt, staff were friendly and helpful, loads of choice, food was great and portions were good sizes, we got free prosecco for my birthday and were able to take some if my pizza away when I couldn't finish it all. Definitely recommend. But book 1st.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Great staff, Really good food and good portions

Cons: Small so need to prebook

Some brilliant food some meh

I loved the mains which was the prawn and pistachio spaghetti special and the carbonara (carbonara was unreal in my opinion) but I wasn’t so impressed with the starters. The buratta was nice but it needed to come with some sort of bread otherwise you’re just eating soft cheese on its own so we had to order bread separately, and the caprese was absolutely nothing like an actual caprese, I don’t think it works in that at all using the crumbled tofu cheese. The tiramisu was nice but wasn’t firm enough and needed a stronger coffee flavour. I would go back but I probably would only have mains cos the pasta was excellent.

Pros: Great pasta, All vegan , Nice staff and atmosphere

Cons: Some dishes lacking in flavour and texture , Quite expensive

I miss it

Possibly the best vegan restaurant I’ve visited within the U.K Probably a really uncultured opinion but I preferred the food here to anything I’ve eaten in Italy. We spent a fortune getting a charcuterie board alongside our mains and desserts but it was so worth it. 10/10 would move to Edinburgh for.

Good food

Pizzas are good, starters were good, small venue but it’s nice and cosy - would recommend booking. It’s a little pricey - I know they use all the best vegan cheese, but comparing it to other places (of the same quality) it seems little much. Wait staff were nice!

Pros: Good pizza

Cons: Expensive

Best Gluten Free and Vegan Pizza I Ever Had!

Well, I think this was probably the best gluten free and vegan pizza I ever had. The crust was remarkable. I don't know how they did it. I somehow have some kind of taste memory of Pizza Hut when I was a kid, and eating this triggered that memory. I never thought I would have that experience again!

Pros: gluten free, vegan, good size menu

Cons: N/A, N/A, N/A

Delicious

Best vegan cheesecake I’ve ever had! Specifically it was “peanut butter & jam cheesecake”. So good! The pizza was excellent; the pasta was bland.

Pros: All vegan, Amazing dessert, Adorable environment

Cons: Pasta was very bland and over cooked.
