Veeno Edinburgh

Rose Street's got plenty of places to get a drink, but Veeno stands out because it actually knows what it's doing with both the wine list and the food. You'll find yourself in a relaxed Italian atmosphere—the kind where staff chat to you like they mean it, not like they're reading from a script. The pasta's proper stuff (not dressed-up tourist fare), and they've got the natural wine selection sorted without being annoying about it. It's the sort of place you end up staying longer than planned, moving from one glass to another, picking at charcuterie.
