Little Capo is a compact Italian inspired restaurant at 18 Howe Street in Edinburgh’s New Town. The room is centred on an aperitivo bar and dining counter, giving guests a close, informal experience whether they sit at the counter or take one of the limited tables.
The kitchen describes its approach as Italian-ish, leaving room to work with seasonal ingredients and contemporary ideas without presenting every dish as a fixed classic. The small scale suits a meal made up of several plates, with the counter helping food and hospitality feel closely connected.
Lunch and dinner are served daily, and reservations accommodate solo diners as well as groups of up to eight. A limited number of walk ins are welcomed, though booking is sensible when the intimate dining room and preferred seating style matter.
Wine, cocktails and beer follow the aperitivo character of the restaurant, but tables are reserved for diners rather than drinks alone. Menus can change, so guests with allergies or dietary requirements should review the latest selection and speak with the team before ordering.
Address: 18 Howe Street, Edinburgh EH3 6TG, Scotland
