Contini George Street Venue

Our beautiful, vibrant and buzzy Italian restaurant is situated in one of Edinburgh’s most beautiful rooms. This former banking hall is modelled on a Florentine Palazzo and delivers every-thing you want from a fabulous, authentic and contemporary Italian restaurant.

We source our produce direct from the markets in Italy and change our menus with the seasons with homemade pasta and delicious Puglian focaccia made fresh every morning. Our food is perfect for sharing. Discover our ‘Best of Contini’ menu, which is perfectly designed for sharing with your fellow diners. Our 6 Course Tasting Menu is the best way to sample a true Italian feast.
