I had the meat feast pizza as a takeaway and couple of weeks ago, and it was amazing! Such good quality food, and the staff were really friendly. The atmosphere was pleasant whilst I waited for my order. Would recommend to anyone looking for vegan options in Edinburgh
A small but smoothly run restaurant in the heart of Edinburgh, Sora Lella serves the best vegan Italian quisine I've ever had out. The meat feast pizza and carbonara were amazing. We were too full for dessert but took a tiramisu home with us. Delicious. Will definitely be back. Highly recommended.
Had a really lovely meal which was also enjoyed by my mum who isn't vegan! I loved the carbonara and the 4 cheese and mushroom gnocchi!! Delicious food but on the expensive side. Shame that we couldn't get a tea or a hot drink apart from an espresso or Americano. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area
So happy to find this place on a recent visit to Edinburgh, very nice family run vibe to the place with incredible vegan food, the flavours were perfection, the chef was an Italian Mama/Nonna
Delicious!! We ordered via Deliveroo, delivery went perfectly. We ordered the Pizza Amatriciana, Gnocchi Quattro Formaggi e Funghi and Suppli Romani (Arancini) as a starter. It was absolutely beautiful. Best vegan pizza (especially the cheese) we have ever had. The Arancini were just amazing, filled with vegan mozzarella. The gnocchis were delicious - maybe additional garlic and a bit of sugar would make it perfect. It was on the more expensive side but it was worth it
My family ate here 2 years ago and we are back. As a flexitarian, I can fully respect this menu and these chefs ability to make delicious food. I had the Meat Feast pizza and thought it was amazing. Ate the whole thing and didn't leave bloated. My family had the special (Pasta with butter cream, parm pistachio), calzone, and Mezze Maniche Alla Zozzona. Oh my! This place is unique and has to be the best Italian place I've eaten at, forget the fact it's vegan. Their layers of flavors will blow your mind.
Very tasty carbonara dish and as a "meat eater", i was not disappointed at all. All the flavors and texture were there and it was better than what i'm served in most "traditional" restaurant. The tiramisu was also excellent: not too sweet, great coffee and amaretto flavors and i could not tell the difference between "real" mascarpone cream and this one. The addition of amaretti biscuits for a bit of crunch were the cherry on top in this dessert. Highly recommended even for the non-vegan folks!
Pasta was genuinely amazing, been looking for something like this for ages and nothing has cut it but the gnocchi here was a game changer, 10/10. Well worth the travel up from Glasgow just for the food alone if anyone's considering going! We will 100% be back.
