One of the best meals and experiences we have had on our travels around the U.K. Not only was the food excellent, but our server was outstanding. She was friendly, courteous, and extremely helpful with explaining the specials and answering our questions. My mother and I will both come back whenever we are in the area.

Great food and atmosphere in this small but cosy restaurant. Friendly waiter service. By time we left every table had been taken so service had slowed but in this atmosphere it didn’t matter.

Such a hidden little gem in Leith. The best service you can't ask for and the best Italian food outside of Italy. If you find yourself nearby please get a table and experience this place for yourself.

Spoilt for choice in this part of Leith, we took a chance by ignoring the unpretentious exterior of Cafe Dominica and stepped inside to be greeted very warmly indeed. The interior is small but delightful with a genuinely Italian feel, helped along by the cheerful and attentive staff. The range of dishes was somewhat limited but there was more than enough choice to make a delicious meal, including the tempting 'specials’ of the day. When the food arrived, we were absolutely delighted with the presentation, the ample portions and most importantly the taste of the food itself. Brilliant service, great food, super ambience and reasonable prices; what is there not to like? Highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing service even though the restaurant was full and, as always the food was completely delicious. A hidden gem in the heart of Leith which is well worth a visit.
