Vittoria (Broughton)

• I cannot stop myself comparing any Itlalian food with the food I had here
• The rated restaurants are so far away from the train stations and I can never find the shops that I&rsquo
• Everything is so spaced out but there&rsquo
• M undecided if the city is actually as confusing as I feel or if it&rsquo
• M so used to knowing where things are in Glasgow that I turn into an old frustrated wifey when I step off the train
• Luckily my resident Edinburger friend knows where she is going so I didn&rsquo
• S since there are two of them and the Vittoria group also have another three restaurants in the city
• We enquired about what it could be used on but we were told we needed a Vittoria&rsquo
• An appetiser of arancini was ordered &ndash
• Rice balls made with mozzarella and bolognese sauce that came with rocket and arrabiata dip
• They were crunchy on the outside as they should be and laced with mozzarella inside
• I had ordered them because I was interested in tasting the difference between arancini that I&rsquo
• It lacked the strength of flavour that I was expecting so if I go back I&rsquo
• We shared a pizza and pasta for our main course to get the best of both worlds
• Tagliatelle Vittoria was pasta in a sauce of tomato
• Pineapple may not be gourmet gastronomy but for some reason it works if you are in the mood for it
• Sauce and toppings to be found in Naples so it is a British adaptation of the classic
• Our shaky start with the voucher mix up and a menu that is frankly overwhelming were replaced with thoughts of a solid classic Italian
• Especially so when they are on our doorstep
• Vittoria on Leith Walk is a firm favourite but I hadn't been in a while
• Having said that I was particularly pleased when the cheery waitress explained that the special of the day was a smoky
• I wish I'd pretended it was her birthday when a sparkly cake went flying past to a nearby table and everyone started to sing
• Its varied menu with all the Italian classics makes it a solid choice for a meal out
• I visited last night with family members for the first time who was in town for the weekend
• Unfortunately the evening was not to the standard I would have hoped from the Vittoria Group
• Once we were seated the drinks order was taken and menus given
• The food served was a really good quality
• We had not even finished our starters and the mains were brought out
• If the garlic focaccia is anything to go by then their pizza must be amazing
