Mamma Roma is an authentic Italian restaurant located at 4/7 Antigua Street Edinburgh. Situated very close to the Edinburgh Playhouse, this restaurant is not only great for Pre-Theatre diners but also has a delicious and extensive choice of menus to satisfy all customers. The restaurant can also be found within a 10 minute walk of Princes Street Gardens and a convenient 5 minute walk from Edinburgh Waverley train station. Mamma Roma’s restaurant is spread over multiple floors. The main dining area is decorated in Tuscan farmhouse style with paintings and medallions embellishing the walls. Special attention is given to the elaborate list of pasta and pizza delicacies and a bowl of gelato or a plate of tiramisu helps to round off a meal on a savory note.

    First and foremost, the food was lovely. Very enjoyable, tasty and well presented. The staff service was also excellent. The restaurant itself is split into the three areas and has more of a high end cafe vibe than the more romantic restaurant we were expecting. Be mindful, the menu on Open Table is wildly inaccurate in terms of pricing. Everything cost almost double and whilst the food was really good, I didn’t feel like it was quite value for money in the end. But, if good Italian food is all you’re looking for then Mamma Roma certainly delivers.

    Food was lovely, and service great, felt tables were quite close together and people kept banging the back of my chair when going past… felt a bit claustrophobic

    The brioche, mussels in garlic and Lasagne were excellent. The set lunch menu is excellent value. Portion sizes were good. Unfortunately in most restaurants nowadays wine and drinks in general are overpriced so we opted out.

    The experience reminds me of a traditional Italian trattoria in a city neighbourhood. There was a good mix of regulars and city visitors which added to the cosy ambience. The furnishings and decor were a good blend of traditional and contemporary with subtle lighting. The staff were professional, welcoming and knowledgeable about the food and wine. The value for money on the set lunch menu was astonishing. The food was traditional, with a good choice and quality and well cooked and presented.
