Fab as ever. We no longer live in the area, but as we were back for a visit, a meal at Alborgo was very important for us. Amazingly friendly staff as always, food excellent, just can't fault it. Will always return when we're in the area, and know many friends who are glad to have it open again. Well done to all the staff.

During the lockdown days, we walked with a friend of mine overall 55km on that day: from Craigmillar, via innocent railway pathway, through Bruntsfield, the Water of Leith to Balerno, a loop around Pentlands through Carlops and Silverburn, and back to Balerno to return back to Craigmillar the same way. On our way back, we came off the Water of Leith path to find this really friendly restaurant. I only asked for a cup of tea, as I was extremely ( as you can probably imagine) tired. The owner was not serving tea, but came out of her way and prepared me probably the best in life cuppa, and did not charge me a penny for it, despite I insisted on paying. I would have never expected this level of kindness, especially it was COVID time and every business struggled to survive. I'll definitely come back for a meal once the pandemic is over. It smells of home- made, authentic food when passing the place, which is prepared by an authentic Italian ch

The staff were so lovely to us from the second we walked in! The food was honestly amazing. Genuinely felt like we were old friends being given special treatment by how amazing the food and service was. The woman taking our order helped us change our order around the menu so that we didn't end up with too much food or wasting money - a rare thing! Also, the food? To die for. The portions looked average sized when we first saw them but my god they are so filling! We originally wanted dessert but were too stuffed! 10/10 we will be back!
