"Truly one of the worst dining experiences of my life. Not one thing was positive about the dinner except the nice female server. But even she disappeared about stopping by the table twice to take our order. The restaurant itself is very claustrophobic and run down. I don’t think they’ve put one dollar into renovating any of the wickedly old restaurant. Seats are worn out. Tables are beat up. Decor is dated and sad. Cutlery is cheap and dinged up. That being said, the food and the service is where things went from bad to worse. When we walked in my girlfriend was put off by our small table, where servers barely had room to walk by you without hitting your elbows. I told her that the food was probably much better since it is an old Italian family run restaurant. Boy was I wrong. I’ve never been to a restaurant that phones it in more than this one. All the food was atrociously bad. It’s almost like they lied about being Italian. My salad’s produce was wilted and not very fresh. The tomatoes were an absolute joke. Cold, bland, and tasteless. Which makes no sense because everywhere I drove through the UK I could find amazing tomatoes at farmer stands and stores. So they are clearly not putting any money towards good ingredients. Cheap. They provide the table with oil and vinegar which was the first sign that we were in for a bumpy ride. The “olive oil” was almost crystal clear with zero taste. It clearly wasn’t olive oil and instead Canola oil. I asked one of the male servers if I could get a side of olive oil and he told me that the oil in the dispenser on the table was their olive oil. I was dumbfounded by this and asked him for the good olive oil that they cook with and he said that the oil on the table was the oil they cooked with. Once again. Cheap. The main courses finally arrive after a long wait and the pasta was not even on par with elementary school cafeteria pasta and the pizza was even worse. Totally bland. The ingredients once again were trash. Cheap. To call it Italian food is laughable at best. And then the atrocious service. The owner of the restaurant was there, walking past our table a million times but never once addressed us until the very end when I asked for change so I could tip. Both he and the other elderly male server would rush every conversation to the point where it felt like we were bothering them. And believe me I was super polite and kind through the whole process. Every time I asked for anything, I could never get my full request out because the server would run off while I was still talking. Extremely rude and dismissive. My girlfriend and I had pizza at the shopping mall the next day and the pizza was 100 times better. And this was a chain in a mall. Save yourself the money and frustration and AVOID this restaurant unless you want to be scammed into buying a lot of cheap and tasteless food by rude people. Such a joke."

Best Italian restaurant in Edinburgh. The bruschetta was one of the best I’ve ever tasted outside of Italy !

We wanted to drink a bottle of wine in the evening. The boss expelled us from the restaurant saying that he sells food.

Olivia and the team couldn't have been more welcoming, warm and attentive. So helpful with pointing out allergen information and wine pairing. Food was absolutely phenomenal and just hit the spot. Great atmosphere and happy staff are always a good sign! We'll be seeing you molto presto!

My husband and I went before a show in Usher Hall. The food was blend. But that was nothing in comparison to the fact that I gave 2 bills of 50 pounds to cover a bill of 51 pounds. The waitress gave change from 60. When I protested, they made me out to be who knows what. I practically got thrown out of there by someone who appeared to be the owner or son of owner. Scarry rude guy. Terrible experience. Don't go there. Visualizza piatti

My husband was craving pasta so this had rave reviews decided to walk over from our hotel. The restaurant screams authentic Italian. We were able to get seated immediately and greeted with what we wanted to drink the water is served in the prettiest blue glass bottles. The menu is limited with some dishes not offering pasta with it at all, got penne pasta in a spicy tomato sauce with added chicken and spaghetti bolognese and a side of garlic bread. Sadly the garlic bread was the best part of the meal. Just kind of boring flavor. Forgot to even bother taking pics. The penne all you could taste was the chili spice and the bolognese tasted like a basic pasta sauce not much flavor. We were both...

Uncertain about how anyone could call this an authentic Italian place. Besides the odd Italian staff member, the food is definitely not. The pizza is far from Napoletan, there's too much cream in everything. The carbonara bears no resemblance to the actual dish, with no pecorino or guanciale in sight, only ham (yes, the honey wafer thin kind), and cream. I asked the owner for an authentic dessert, they recommended the tiramisu, which didn't have savoiardi, nor mascarpone, nor espresso. It had whipped cream and chocolate sauce? Your nonna would cry if they were served this sorry excuse for a tiramisu at an Italian restaurant, for 8 quid!!! You can get more authentic Italian food at Sainsbury'...

"new kapitel has caught my attention after I was on top ten on trip advisor only months after the opening in the oktober last year. that and the fact that it is open for my early january birthday, made it the perfect place to celebrate to become a little older. I was with the man and his family. the man is quite used to my taste and good to the kind of kitchen that would appeal to me for a special occasion; his family not so much and I was filled with shame as his mother scornful went through the menu trying to find something she would enjoy. I've eaten with the family of the man, and I know they enjoy eating, so I think it's a failure of the menu that it is not accessible. the benming always blooming and garnish can appeal to some, but for others it is overcomplicated and it is necessary to find a balance between the two. we start with the starters and I go for venison sour wort pithvier. the venison was underheated and incredibly dry, to the happiness the sourded a little moisturizing and so saved the whole dish, but the aromen were quite not clear, except the garnitur of plastered mushrooms I thoroughly enjoyed. for the largest part we chose a fish dish for our main,- sea trout, smoked muddles, petersilien and coast herbs. where the starter fell, the main recording is getting back. the dish is rich and creamy, and each element adds the complexity of the taste as a whole, without disturbing. the concept is now an old one, and it would be deceptive if it had not worked, as it would essentially pay with this place. I enjoyed my meal in new chapter, although I do not agree with it is stellar status under the hierarchy of edinburgh eateries. it is top ten position is just a flash in the pan of hot popularity, and in time it will be plated in the upper half of the middle stage where it belongs. and that is where it belongs, the dishes can be plated with a michelin star in understood, and the venue and the supporting media has the clean lines and empty slate look of fine but eat the team has a long gone to go if that is their real aim. at the end, although it was a beautiful meal, and cheap (at the moment I would not be surprised to see their prices slowly rise) and the man’s mother found something they enjoyed and that is the most important."
