A NEW Italian restaurant has opened on Edinburgh’s buzzy Rose Street, promising a focus on ‘fresh and flavourful’ small plates.
Styled using upcycled furnishings, Assaggini offers a casual yet contemporary dining experience across two floors for over 160 guests. The restaurant provides ample room for larger groups to dine in the heart of the city, with private dining and event space available in its spacious downstairs area.
With a menu to suit family dining and delicious offerings for vegetarians and vegans, the offering includes the likes of Paccheri Piccante pasta in a mascarpone and ‘nduja sauce; Fettuccine Funghi e Tartufo pasta with mixed mushrooms, garlic and truffle; and pizza with mortadella, pistachio and burrata. Side dishes include spicy ‘nduja fries, and a parma ham and buffalo mozzarella focaccia.
The wine list features the best of Italian wine to complement the selection of dishes on the menu alongside an extensive list of classic cocktails to be enjoyed pre- or post-meal.
