• Italian • Newington
Booked 1 time today
Sambuca is not the classiest of drinks, to say the least, more associated with a night on the tartan tiles than an elegant Edinburgh eatery, but at Sambuca Restaurant in Newington, they manage to strike a balance between the two. They offer superb Italian cuisine served up in a boisterous, family-run environment down on Causewayside, and when you head on over, you’re guaranteed a friendly welcome. Start with their antipasti – fresh mussels, proscuitto and melon or some cold-cured meats – and then move onto a main. There are plenty of pastas and pizzas, of course, but we’d go straight for their house specials menu which here at Sambuca means seafood: trout with lemon, sole in butter, prawns in tamarind and more. Take a trip to Causewayside in Edinburgh’s Newington for a great Italian meal: just remember to book your table ahead of time.

    We started off the night with drinks and canapes in the red velvet lounge before transitioning into the lovely, airy dining room. The food was so fresh and flavorful. The Aubergine and Endive were particular hits as they had really lovely textures and a range of flavors to complement the main items. The cod was luscious and spare, and the venison was delightful with its pickled radicchio, marinated bell peppers, red wine jus, and green peppercorns. Dessert was a pair of lovely dishes - one with chocolate, blackberry granita and buckwheat and finally a lovely, savory honey cookie bar with a douglas fir dusting. The wine list was quite affordable and we had a lovely Viognier with our first couple courses. Great spot, beautiful vibes and great food. What a lovely place to kick off a trip to Scotland!

    Had lunch in the Brasserie with a friend. It was delicious we both enjoyed it. Service was just as you want it. Staff were polite and friendly not overbearing. Restaurant area was spotless. Food was as described on the menu. Bread and Olives were also delicious. It’s easy to get to either by bus or car and there is free parking.
