Why Travelers Love Amarone
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
It was our first time trying this restaurant, as we wanted to celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary somewhere new .The decor is lovely; I especially liked the huge bar. We had a table right next to it, and it was such a pleasure to watch the bartenders constantly mixing cocktails and preparing drinks. The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant. The food was also very good. I especially enjoyed my main course. As for the starter I ordered the panna cotta with goat cheese, walnuts, and fig jam - the flavor was delicious! The only small thing for me was the presentation: it was served in a tiny jar, which made it a bit tricky to eat. Personally, I think a different serving style might suit it better. But overall, it was a lovely experience and definitely a good choice for our special evening. I love the ambience of this restaurant. It looks solemn and elegant. The staffs are nice and we booked this ahead of time. I ordered carbonara and my partner ordered the Pollo Tartufato and we like it. The prices are reasonable as well. Worth going back. A big thank you to Mohammed ,Sofia ,Chloe and the manger for their amazing service! They were super friendly, polite, and very professional. The table reservation was quick and easy, and they helped me pick the best dishes. I really felt their genuine care, and because of their great attitude, I ended up ordering more than I planned.

Amazing Italian Food and Great Service! I had a wonderful experience at Amarone in Edinburgh. The food was absolutely delicious – I tried the carbonara pasta, a creamy risotto, another pasta dish, and the king prawns, which were absolutely perfect and so tasty! The service was friendly and very fast, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The atmosphere in the restaurant is lovely – cozy, stylish, and welcoming. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves good Italian food!

Got a table quickly for lunch. Enjoyed pepperoni pizza (beware spicy) but so good! Had the Caesar salad and the mozzarella appetizer. All delicious!
