Vittoria on the Bridge

For fine dining, fine wines and fine times, look no further than this popular Italian restaurant which boasts a prime location in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town.

Situated on George IV Bridge, Vittoria on the Bridge has been serving up delicious, authentic Italian cuisine since it opened its doors in 2007.

With third-generation restreuteurs, the Crolla family, at the helm it’s no surprise that the menus are made up of the freshest Italian ingredients, many sourced directly from small artisan suppliers in Italy.

Roll up your sleeves and get stuck in to a sumptuous antipasti spread, including spicy nduja and bean stew, before moving onto comforting homemade pastas, thin-crust pizzas cooked in an Italian oven, mouthwatering meat dishes and decadent desserts.

A dedicated vegan and kids menu means there really is something for everyone at this much-loved locals’ spot.

If you’re feeling indecisive, the team are extremely well-versed on the wine list and have forged relationships with the growers which go back many years. Taste your way around Italy or add a little sparkle to your evening with a classic spritz.
