text: Mmnnnn In reading everyone elses review I do not know if I am being harsh or not but I am not a fan of this place I have been in a couple of times recently Once for coffee and cake which was an ok experience Central location but there are so many other nicer places nearby you can go for a fabulous coffee in a nicer setting Plus I found the squoosh of canned cream next to my bit of lemon drizzle cake a bit cheap and it coloured my perception of their Italian home bakingnnNext visit was for food during the festival primarily because we walked past and the folk I was with said we should go in as they could not be bothered trying to find anywhere else that would take It would not have ever been on my list of places to eat Italian food in Edinburgh however I am happy to go with the flow on occasion as I am hoping to be surprised I was not Pasta was overcooked an offence in Italy and the sauce was not all that Weird tasting meatballs kind of tasted like they were frozen from Costco Nothing authentic about this place in my mind apart from the Italian waiter The place had a slightly grubby look to it which might have been down to the huge amount of tourist traffic in and out for the festival but still No toilet paper in the ladies either Grump nnSo cannot recommend But as I say I might just be more harsh than others
