  “We went here our first night in Edinburgh. They were very accommodating over the phone regarding our booking, the entrance was lovely too, set up for Christmas already! We got the bruschetta to start which wouldn’t be my favourite especially given its cost. The pastas were lovely, perfect if not generous portions we felt. Service was good, the waitress was lovely and we weren’t rushed but we were waiting for a while between our main course and ordering dessert. The atmosphere was amazing, not too loud and the building itself was stunning and the tables weren’t too crowded.”

  “I came with a friend for dinner and we were seated right away and given menus. We ordered cocktails, which were delicious, and each of us got a pasta dish. The food was outstanding—top-notch quality. Excellent service and reasonable prices considering the level of the restaurant. Highly recommended!”

  “The food wasn’t very authentic Italian, but the chicken and vegetables were tasty. Sarowar made our experience much better—he was very helpful with the menu and customized our dishes for us. Thank you for the great service! Booking in advance is recommended, as we didn’t have a reservation and had to sit on the terrace.”

  “I didn’t have high expectations of this place after reading reviews but was very pleasantly surprised! Service was great - attentive and friendly. My meal was delicious and served pretty quickly. Reasonable prices for the centre of the city. Would come back!”

  “A large Italian restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere and very friendly staff. The food was good overall, and the service was attentive. The only small disappointment was that the Spaghetti Carbonara was a bit too salty for our taste. Apart from that, we had a pleasant dining experience and would happily visit again.”

  “We had a lovely evening at Amarone in Edinburgh. The waitress who looked after us was really friendly and attentive, and sitting outside made the experience even better — such a lovely atmosphere and a great spot to enjoy the city. I ordered the gluten free carbonara. The pasta itself was delicious and cooked really well, however I was disappointed by the sauce. It seemed to contain a lot of flour, which made it feel heavy and not very authentic. I was hoping for a more traditional Italian carbonara experience using simple ingredients like egg yolk, guanciale, Pecorino Romano, and freshly cracked black pepper — without flour or a thickened sauce. It felt a bit like a shortcut solution rather than the classic dish I was expecting from an Italian restaurant of this standard.😭 My parents had the lasagne and one of the seafood pastas. They liked it a lot! That said, the atmosphere was wonderful and the service was genuinely great. I hope they reconsider the carbonara recipe because with a more authentic sauce, the dish could be amazing.”

  “After a full day of touring the beautiful Scottish Highlands, we enjoyed an outstanding dinner at Amarone Italian Restaurant. I ordered the king prawn appetizer and the Saltimbocca alla Romana - which was beautifully seasoned with a white wine and butter sauce. My wife ordered the Minestrone Soup full of beans, with nicely sliced seasoned vegetables, and the Spaghetti al Carciofi, a vegetarian carbonara with grilled artichokes and toasted pine nuts which added a lovely nutty richness. Then we shared a mouth-watering tiramisu. Everything was absolutely delicious, service was excellent, and ambience was elegant but a bit noisy from all the kitchen activities. Hugh selection of beer, wine, cocktails, etc. Very highly recommended.”

  “What a place to eat. As someone who goes to Italian food places pretty often, this is one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve ever been to. The atmosphere was incredible. Nice music playing in the background, not too loud or quiet but just right. Lighting and decoration was also brilliant as you can see in the photos. When we ordered food, the prices seemed so low for such a fancy looking place - £13 for a margarita pizza was great, and the portion sizes didn’t disappoint in the slightest. It took a little longer for the food to come than expected, but when it did it was brilliant. I have to say that sometimes food can taste better when you’re hungry, but 4 hours earlier I had quite a large burger and chips, so that wouldn’t be the case. The pizza was incredible. It was that good that I ate two slices before taking a photo. Dough wasn’t too thick or thin, and the toppings tasted fresh and tangy. I got vanilla ice cream and ‘Amarone’ cherries for dessert. It looked great, and was delicious, but the cherries weren’t really for me as they tasted a little too bitter. Still great though. Would 100% recommend. Thank you Amarone!”

  “Food was incredible. I will definitely be back. I ordered the beef roast and it was the most tender roast I've ever had. My friend got the turkey roast from the Christmas menu and it was amazing as well. The starter of king prawns was so tasty and each course was an excellent portion size. Only complaint is that we waited around 40mins for the bill - they were incredibly busy on a Sunday evening and I think they maybe forgot about us. Food came very quickly though and was all amazing.”
