Located in the city centre, this elegant, family-run restaurant offers the finest Italian food, in homely, traditional surroundings. Exposed brick walls and cosy furnishings contribute to the unpretentious laid-back atmosphere, and in true Italian style you will be made to feel instantly welcome. The atmosphere provides the perfect setting in which to relax, unwind and enjoy delicious cooking with family and friends. Since establishing the restaurant in 1995, Giovanni and his son Mennato have brought Italian flair and flavour to the Scottish capital.

Your dining experience at Mamma Roma will be refreshingly relaxed, and you won't feel rushed to make your choice - just as well, as you'll want to take your time over the comprehensive, reasonably priced menu. As you decide, why not sip something from the equally extensive wine list. You'll be spoilt for choice by the à la carte menu, which presents everything from pizzas (with every topping imaginable), to veal, beef, pasta and creative fish dishes. Due to its enviable position opposite the Edinburgh Playhouse, Mamma Roma has created a delightful pre-theatre menu with a starter, a main, a dessert and a coffee for just £16.95. Meeting popular demand, parties are also catered for. At Mama Roma you'll find thoroughly mouth-watering Italian fare - and a taste of Rome a little closer to home.
