Trying to avoid carb heavy foods in Edinburgh can be a challenge. Asti offers chicken and lamb dishes with vegetables and salads. We started with rocket (arugula) salads--nice presentation, quality Parmesan cheese and a tasty balsamic glaze. The main course (chicken stuffed with mozzarella and sundried tomatoes) was well-flavored, moist and delicious. We also tried the mac and cheese, its own separate casserole whose cheese had a nice bite and texture. Couldn't resist the great dessert menu, sampling a toffee cake with vanilla ice cream. Portions are big, but so is the taste. Our server was attentive and friendly. With all that at a reasonable price and pleasant decor (bay window in the back...
In Edinburgh on my honeymoon. My husband and I ate here two nights in a row not only because it was in walking distance of our B&B but because this is REAL Italian food! We were in Rome two years ago and fell in love with the food. Last night we were in the mood for Italian after eating too much Scottish food the last few days. We knew it was a risk trying Italian food anywhere other that Italy but we read the reviews and decided to give it a try. I have to say both times were the best meal of the year so far and my husband and I agreed that this may be the best two meals we have on our entire honey moon and we still have 9 days left!

If you're in Edinburgh, Asti is an absolute must! Had the chicken risotto with pancetta and spinach and wife had lasagna. Both are 2 of the best things I've ever eaten in my life! Been all over the globe and even to Italy and Asti tops them all. Risotto had the perfect combination of texture and robust flavor and I only wish we'd eaten here sooner and multiple times on our trip. Lasagna was piping hot and full of flavor. Tomato sauce has to be made from scratch. Service was excellent as well. We were sat quickly and tended to quickly throughout our meal.
Wow. The specials seem to be amazing here as ours was too! We had the handmade ravioli filled with prawn with a tomato basil sauce. It was absolutely phenomenal. The minestrone soup was also quite good!! We were very pleased and would easily come back if we lived here.
Outstanding food, great service, and a nice relaxing quiet dining room. It's a great escape from the sightseeing hustle and bustle.
