All Vegan Italian Restaurant

My partner and I went here for my birthday dinner. The food was very delicious, and the restaurant had a nice atmosphere.

Believe the hype!

Sora Lella is a small intimate restaurant. Every time we visit we are amazed by how delicious it is! Most things on the menu can be made gluten free and we'd recommend the gnocchi and four cheese and mushroom white based pizza!

Amazing pasta

Boyfriend declared this the best vegan carbonara he’d ever had! Pasta was delicious, good portion sizes, wish we had room for dessert! Make sure you book and it isn’t a big restaurant

Pros: Really delicious food, Lovely Italian vibe in restaurant

Cons: Slightly expensive but made up for in quality

Fantastic vegan Italian

We had two different gnocchi dishes. Absolutely delicious and gnocchi perfectly cooked. Followed by tiramisu, which was excellent.

Pros: Incredible all vegan menu, Delicious food, Good ambience

Cons: None

Not great

We went there with high hopes after reading all the positive reviews. Our starters of bruschetta were okay, but unfortunately the mains were not good. I had the spaghetti carbonara, and while it was good at first, after a few bites the sheer amount of SALT was just too much. I ate what I could but did not even finish half. My boyfriend had a pizza and he said it wasn't great, the crust was soft and wet and the cheese was average. Overall not impressed.

Large portions of delicious food

We've tried a pizza and pasta and both were very filling and rich. Side salad generous portion size as well! We left the place absolutely full.

Mama Mia!

Great little vegan place tucked away near the city centre. The restaurant is fairly small but in a cosy way, you don’t feel cramped inside. The staff were friendly and helpful, thought the food was delicious (my partner wasn’t too keen on the cheese but I really liked it), tonnes of choice including an entire gluten free menu and some good tunes on in the background (80s mostly).

I would say it was a tad expensive, a couple more slices in the bread basket would be good for the price as an example. It also took a little long for the food to come but these are very minor issues. I’d give it 4.5 out of 5 (but I can’t so I’ll round it up to 5).

Would return without a doubt.

Pros: Big gluten-free menu, Cosy , Good music

Cons: Little expensive , Took a bit long for food to arrive

Ok, a little disappointing

A little confused as to why this is got such good reviews? Not sure if we were unlucky on the day or if they've changed chefs? The foccacia was a thin pizza, the rice balls tasted of nothing. The pasta dishes were way too heavy and creamy. The tiramisu was terrible. We we're really looking forward to this but it really wasn't there. Unfortunately we've had much better vegan Italian food in non vegan italian restaurants. I think there are way to many options for such a small restaurant, better to focus on a few really good dishes..

Pros: Couple of good wine options

Cons: Not cheap, specially for the food being served.

Amazing food

All menu is vegan. The choice of food is great. We had a seitan dish which was really tasty and pizza carbonara which was lovely too.
Good choice of desserts, sides and starters.
I will definitely come back to try gnocci and some pasta dish.

Pros: Everything is vegan, Prices are reasonble, Very friendly staff

Lovely vegan italian food

Lovely fully vegan place in centre of Edinburgh, so much choice we struggled to choose! We opted for a gnocchi dish and a pizza to share, both yum. We ordered a white choc and raspberry, and biscoff cheesecakes to share and both were to die for, especially the biscoff one! We'll be back to try more of the menu again!

Good gnocchi, disappointing pizza

Gnocchi had a lovely consistency and a nice sauce.
Really lovely staff.

Sadly both time I've tried the pizza I've been really disappointed. Really don't like the soy cheese on the pizzas, it goes solid and chewy when it starts to cool and the marinara pizza had a very bland sauce with ferocious blobs of garlic. I hate to leave an unenthusiastic review for a vegan restaurant, would maybe try again in the future.

Pros: Staff were lovely

Cons: Soy cheese, Bland marinara sauce

Extremely greasy "cheap" pizza

I was expecting a high quality pizza given the price and being an all italian restaurant but was sorely disappointed. The waitress was really helpful and nice, nothing at fault there. The fault is that the pizza was actually horrible and was of comparable quality to a regular cheap corner pizza place. A greasy greasy mess, oily all around, uneven toppings, similar to a cheaper "fried" version of pizza hut. Will not go back and recommend anyone not to if you're going for pizza.

Pros: All vegan

Cons: Expensive for cheap pizza, Sickening amounts of grease and oil

Best vegan Italian food

A very cute, cozy restaurant and the BEST vegan Italian food (outside of Italy that is). I had the carbonara and it was superb, so so delicious. My husband had the meat feast pizza and it was also very good. Would highly recommend this place to vegans and nonvegans alike.

Pros: Great vegan options (wish I could have tried every, Good value

Good food

A very cosy restaurant with lovely decor(especially the bathroom), perfect for dates and catching up with friends. Staff are so friendly and helpful too.
Ordered the Seitan main and my partner had a pizza which was a bit bland sadly but the starter was absolutely amazing! Deep fried rice balls with chilli and (ve) mozzarella. Some parts were a little over priced but the wine and pizzas are fab. Would definitely try a pasta dish if I visited again

Pros: Full vegan, Wonderful atmosphere

Cons: Expensive

Lovely and filling

A fully vegan restaurant? In Edinburgh? On food delivery apps? Love to see it

The menu is very big and the portion sizes are very generous!

I ordered the Carbonara, Suppli Romani, Roasted Potatoes, and Biscoff Cheesecake.

Very tasty and the cheesecake was perfect.
One star lost as Carbonara could’ve had a bit more flavour and Suppli was a bit dry.

Ordered this meal on Deliveroo. It arrived still very hot so I could enjoy it properly.

Pros: Huge menu, Cheesecakes!, Made fresh and packaged well for delivery

Cons: Carbonara and Suppli lacked some flavour

Must visit in Edinburgh

Right near the amazing Black Rabbit in Tollcross this place is great, really varied menu and everything we had was lovely. We visited in August during Covid and the staff were stretched but nothing was an issue.

Pros: All vegan versions of your Italian faves , Price was ok

Delicious and unique

They're now open for bookings; it was on my go-to list of places to go and I wasn't disappointed. My boyfriend & I shared a pizza as a starter, which had seitan and almond.... something I had to Google, then pasta and gnocchi, and cheesecake and chocolate & strawberry covered focaccia for dessert. Booking essential, and take a mask for wearing when not seated.

Pros: All vegan, Amazing variety of options

Very impressive menu, heaven!

I was just so impressed by this restaurant. There is just so much choice and I struggled to decide on one meal, everything sounded amazing. I had come in for a lighter lunch, so chose the soup of the day and the fresh salad with ricotta. Whilst the food took a little while to come, it was totally worth the wait and not something I am concerned about. The soup was gorgeous, one of the best I've had. And the salad was fresh, and just lovely. My non-vegan friend enjoyed her mushroom pizza and said she would never have guessed that it was vegan! I desperately want to return to this restaurant, the other options on the menu look amazing and I will be telling everyone about it - hoping that they want to go with me!
