My favourite restaurant in Edinburgh

This is my new favourite restaurant in Edinburgh. We tried their pizza and pasta and both were equally amazing. Absolutely delicious. It's a lovely atmosphere and the staff is attentive and very welcoming. Will def. be back.

Pros: Everything is vegan

An absolute must visit!

Sora Lella looks like a modest little cafe but it is actually an inviting restaurant with extremely friendly, knowledgeable staff and unbeatable food.
I was over the moon to find an all vegan Italian restaurant which could also cater to my partner as gluten intolerant.

Pros: Absolutely gorgeous food, Friendly, knowledgeable staff, Cosy atmosphere

Coming from London we were surprised to find a vegan Italian.

Lovely food, tasty and so many things to choose from. Had the garlic focaccia, vodka pasta, rigatoni all'amatriciama and the biscoff cheesecake. Nothing disappointed and the service was quick and friendly.

Pros: Menu all vegan, Tasty fresh food, Lovely service

Cons: Need to book

Unbeatable Italian food, lovely atmosphere

I literally dream of this place. Every time I visit I have the dilemma of getting the same (delicious) thing I had last time, or trying something different. So much choice, and I haven't been disappointed once. I also love the intimate atmosphere.

Pros: So much choice, Authentic Italian food, Cosy, twinkly, romantic atmosphere

Amazing food

I've been here a couple times over the past few weeks and the food has been spectacular every time. The seitan is incredible - I normally wouldn't just have seitan for a main but you get a lot and it's very filling and delicious. Best cheesecake I've ever eaten, especially the Biscoff cheesecake. The space is a bit wee (slightly bigger than their sister restaurant, Nova Pizza), so you'll definitely want to make reservations. Probably the best restaurant in Edinburgh. Highly, highly recommended.

Pros: delicious food, great service

Beautiful, authentic Italian food 💚

We were excited to find a vegan Italian restaurant and Sora Lella did not disappoint. Everything we had was absolutely delicious - beautiful food, clearly made with love. Generous portions and reasonable prices. A wide selection of wines, beers and drinks. Friendly staff. Small place with a cosy atmosphere (I recommend booking).

Nice food, good service

Original review Jan 2020: It was lovely to find out there is a new vegan restaurant in Edinburgh and so we came here for dinner. The food was very nice although the garlic focaccia was a bit bland and there wasn’t as much cheese on the meat feast pizza as I would have liked. The service was great and I would certainly come again if I needed a place to eat in this end of town. (4 stars)

Updated review Aug 2021: We came back here for a birthday mea and were blown away by how good it was. The seitan is amazing (as are the pizzas) and the service continues to be exceptional. I’ve upgraded my review to 5 stars!

Believe the hype!

Sora Lella is a small intimate restaurant. Every time we visit we are amazed by how delicious it is! Most things on the menu can be made gluten free and we'd recommend the gnocchi and four cheese and mushroom white based pizza!

Amazing pasta

Boyfriend declared this the best vegan carbonara he’d ever had! Pasta was delicious, good portion sizes, wish we had room for dessert! Make sure you book and it isn’t a big restaurant

Cons: Slightly expensive but made up for in quality

Not great

We went there with high hopes after reading all the positive reviews. Our starters of bruschetta were okay, but unfortunately the mains were not good. I had the spaghetti carbonara, and while it was good at first, after a few bites the sheer amount of SALT was just too much. I ate what I could but did not even finish half. My boyfriend had a pizza and he said it wasn't great, the crust was soft and wet and the cheese was average. Overall not impressed.

Large portions of delicious food

We've tried a pizza and pasta and both were very filling and rich. Side salad generous portion size as well! We left the place absolutely full.

Mama Mia!

Great little vegan place tucked away near the city centre. The restaurant is fairly small but in a cosy way, you don’t feel cramped inside. The staff were friendly and helpful, thought the food was delicious (my partner wasn’t too keen on the cheese but I really liked it), tonnes of choice including an entire gluten free menu and some good tunes on in the background (80s mostly).

I would say it was a tad expensive, a couple more slices in the bread basket would be good for the price as an example. It also took a little long for the food to come but these are very minor issues. I’d give it 4.5 out of 5 (but I can’t so I’ll round it up to 5).

Would return without a doubt.

Pros: Big gluten-free menu, Cosy , Good music

Cons: Little expensive , Took a bit long for food to arrive
