3.5 stars The pasta is the star. Friendly prompt service in a small, casual dining area. The salumi plate was fine. My boys devoured most of the meat before I could taste any of it, but the salami and cheese pieces I tasted were delicately delicious. The olives were nice, but the toast pieces were a bit uninspiring. My rocket and Parmesan salad was delicious. The parm was pretty good quality, and the greens were fresh, tossed with a good balsamic. A very nice salad course. I ordered Spaghetti Vongole and it was spectacular.

Booked lunch here after hearing great things about this place from friends. I wasn't disappointed! Located in a sunny corner of the west end Piccolino offers first class dishes, beautifully cooked using genuine fresh ingredients. The portions are generous to say the least and everything we ordered was top notch. What sets this restaurant aside and gives it a definite edge on its competitors is the really excellent service of its staff. We were served by Lorenzo and Alessandra who were probably the most professional and friendly waiters I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. We also tried Piccolino's take away Panzerotti fried pizza dough filled with mozzarella and tomato) which were deliciou...
We stumbled upon a true gem! This family-owned Italian restaurant was a delightful find. The staff were welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in our dining experience. The food was superb. As a lover of seafood, I thoroughly enjoyed the top-notch quality, generous portions, and variety in my linguini frutti di mare. I highly recommend this restaurant, which is conveniently located near all the attractions of Edinburgh.
Made reservation months ago thru OpenTable. Advised 1 vegetarian/1 gluten free. Arrived and found they had a special limited menu tonight without any gluten free items no regular menu. Surprised they had not notified us. Very disappointed. Left and found a lovely Italian restaurant only block away that squeezed us in and was delicious L’Artigiano.

My husband, 5-year-old son, and I all enjoyed our meals at this restaurant. My son especially loved the pasta and even asked for another serving. We tried the Polette as a starter and the Melanise for our main dishes, both of which were delicious. We will definitely be returning in the future.
We were staying in an Airbnb in Leith and were too tired to go out. So we ordered from Piccolino through Uber Eats. We got Penne Amatriciana, Paccheri Al Ragu Di Cervo and garlic bread. Very tasty! Would definitely recommend!!
This was by far the best meal we had while in Edinburgh. The food was of a very high quality . The service was excellent , fast and friendly. Family kind of atmosphere. The BEST Tiramisu I have ever had too !!
Food is great and fresh , service is amazing and no huge lines during lunch since it 's off the Main Streets where all tourists are. A hidden gem
