Razzo Pizza Napoletana — Restaurant in City of Edinburgh

Every time I pass this wee place has customers. Ordered & 10min later it was ready to be picked up.

Simple menu, no different sizes or chips. Authentic and done WELL.

Personally I’m not a pizza or bread fan-I know I’ll be lynched for this but hopefully the following will save me!

Ordered Buratta E Cappocolo. The contrast of crunchy crust, flavoured with slight char in places, the smooth silky pasta ya & cool creamy buratta chesse, peppery rocket, mmm, a little party in the mouth.

A veggie order of Ortolano with a white sauce, courgette slices, Mushrooms & peppers. I added on Aubergine at an addition of £1.50. This was my first time having a whit sauce on pizza & although nice, for personal taste, I’d have preferred pasta ya and the white sauce as a dip. Enjoyed the veggies being in chunks and slices for added texture. Not a single bit crust was left!

As a precaution I ordered the rosemary garlic Mayo for leftover crusts-no need. It’s ok flavour but expensive for a few spoonfuls that aren’t required as the dough is so nice and a star on its own.

Requested the original chesse on the above to be changed due to health reasons which was adhered to.

Between the two pizza’s 3/4 were left & reheated in the oven very well. Do not ruin left overs by nuking them!

Anything above basic Margareta range from £11-£13.

A Mozzarella sandwich had a great cheese pull and good layer of crunchy bread rubs without being greasy but is BIG for one person! Could do with a little more tomato dip.

I can’t say pizza will feature more frequently in my life but I would have no objections to a slice from here and highly recommend checking it out. Large range of beers and wine.

Can easily see another branch opening up.

I heard this place did great pizza so for some reason I decided to a delivery to the hospital whilst my wife was in labour. Probably the nervous munchies. It’s a good 20/30 mins drive so whenever the food arrived it was cold. I can’t remember which delivery service I used but they hilariously arrived at A&E, instead of the main entrance, so I had to run around. I went with a pepperoni pizza and, although it wasn’t perfectly round and the pepperoni was evenly distributed across the pizza and it being cold, it tasted awesome! Definitely not the best pizza I’ve had but for sure the best cold one. It wasn’t oily and the dough held together well. I also decided to get arancini balls which were a little warm. I was told to eat them in another room as the cheese smell disgusted my pregnant wife when she was going through contractions. I fairly enjoyed them in the toilet. I also got a pistachio tart which got a little messy as I didn’t have any cutlery so it was a caveman style job. The tart was delicious. Finally I got a couple of cannolis which were massive! They were covered in chocolate with a pistachio filling. Yum yum! In overall I enjoyed my order and it helped me get through the stress of labour. I would like to try again and get a warmer...

Was able to secure a reservation for in person dining for my family of 4. As we walked up there was a mob of Uber eats delivery guys waiting outside the restaurant. As we entered, we were quickly seated and attended to. We ordered the Caprese appetizer which was good but could use a few more sprigs of basil given the size of the tomatoes . We also had 4 pizzas which were all amazing. The crust was exceptional and on par with the best pizzas from some world class joints although mine could have been cooked for another minute due to my toppings. As we sat and ate the Uber Eats line was constant and I can understand why there are poor reviews on delivery. They are primarily serving 95% delivery orders and the wait times between some of the pies coming out of the oven was typically 5-20 minutes for the same order. I think In person diners have priority on pizza, so no matter if there are 80 Uber orders in front of you, your pie gets put in the oven as soon as it hits the kitchen.

If you want good, fresh not soggy pizza people need to make an effort and go in person. 3 stars on ambience as the constant delivery guys are annoying but we were only there for the pizza. Would return in person...
