Visited with friends last Saturday for lunch. Not too busy and we were seated quickly. Good menus with option for set lunch or alacarte. The specials were completley different from the menus which were nice to see. We all went for pasta dishes and nothing was left. Good flavours and definately the best Italian in Midlothian. Service brilliant and a nice bottle of wine to finish it off. I believe they are now building a bar area which will be a nice addition next year.

Lunch with friends; great food and fantastic value. Obviously very popular with locals, who popped in for take- aways, as well as meals.Basic decor / seating: a great place for a nice lunch but not the place for a fancy meal.Seating rather uncomfortable for anybody with mobility / disabilty issues, but staff very friendly and accomodating.Excellent for veggies; not so good for meat eaters! Highly recommended. Lovely place.

we had been out enjoying the recent good weather and had been in Dalkeith and decided to go for lunch and thought we would try the cavaliere and we tried the set lunch menu which had quite a few choices , I had the minestrone and my wife fishcakes which we both enjoyed I the had one of the pasta dishes and my wife got a pizza both of which were very good only downside is the price for soft drinks a small bottle of cocacola was over £2 , but would go back again.

I've had many good experiences with the Caprice before but this evening was really disappointing....the order turned up much earlier than expected which was odd, only to find that we were given the wrong order. We did promptly get a phone call to apologise which was good. 45 minutes the rest of our order turned up, the pizza compared to previous orders/visits was very dried out like it had been sitting either in the restaurant or in a delivery car/van. However, the thing I found really worrying was that the driver asked for the other pizzas back, they had been sitting getting cold for 45 mins!! Really made me feel uncomfortable that those pizzas might actually be delivered to someone else and no offer of compensation or anything additional for the inconvenience. It's a shame because it would put me off ordering again, certainly for home delivery!

As the title says, good food & friendly staff, the shop is regularly busy which is a testament to their service and product.A bit more expensive than other local take away's but you get what you pay for

Turned up on a Wednesday evening and although the restaurant was almost empty the waitress said "Have you booked?" in an unwelcoming way. Ordered pizza and pasta which we thought you can't go wrong with, WRONG! If I were a chef, I would be ashamed of the pasta served up. Luckily, my wife and I ordered a pizza to go with the past as it was just about edible although it was far too salty and left an aftertaste in our mouths. There was a wedding taking place in a venue next door and engaging with the mature waitress I said "it is unusual to see a wedding taking place this evening?" She replied in a sarcastic tone, "It is a Wedding Venue!" It was obviously a wedding venue, I was just making conversation and mean't it was strange to see a wedding on a Wednesday evening? However, the food and customer service has drastically gone down since I was last visiting the place. On this visit experience, I will not be returning, as I can receive better service and food at a local MacDonalds. Judging by the amount of customers, I'm guessing I'm not the only person dissatisfied with the quality of the food and service. Hello mr andy please may i ask which Wednesday did you come to visit us so that i can check who was on shift and speak to my members of staff i'm so sorry that you where not happy and we try to give a nice friendly service to all our costumers thank you very much i will be waiting for your response

Weâve been here a few times and always enjoyed the job, ambience and the fact that it is a pleasant, small family run Italian.I had a few issues with my last visit with my main, a Cod dish being rather poor, under seasoned and not the freshest but put this down to a hiccup.My wife and I went down last Friday and I was disappointed by my flavourless, under seasoned aubergine and mozzarella starter.We never usually order pizza hear but fancied a change and quickly regret that decision. We ordered a burrata and Nduja flavoured pizza each but when it came out it was lukewarm, bordering on cold. Come on this is 2019 hot plates, hot food, happy customer! The pizza was very bare and also extremely salty (and I like salt!). After eating less then a half we gave up and I told the waiter that the pizza was cold and salty, his reply was to shrug his shoulders and say âNduja is saltyâ. Both he and the chef/owner seemed entirely unfazed by the fact that they had just served inedible food to their customers. Only a poor quality Nduja is salty as extra salt is adding during the curing process to speed it up and increase yield, perhaps moving to a better product (and please taste first) and just increase your price a little to account for this. No brainier!We paid our bill and promptly left never to return which is a shame. As we left I watched another 4 plates leave the kitchen and go to a table without a hint of steam rising from the top, enjoy!

We regularly visit this local restaurant and each time everything is perfect. I think Iâve provably had most things on the menu but would have to recommend the âInsalata Capreseâ - fresh mozzarella and tomatoes and âAgnolotti Allâ asticeâ - fresh lobster pasta. The Arancini is also delicious. The kids are more than happy with choices from their menus. The restaurant is always clean and well presented. Good music. Nice ambiance. Staff are always very friendly and will always go the extra mile. The French Martinis here are the best Iâve had!! The Miol Prosecco also goes down well. Nice little touch with flowers on the desk as you arrive too. All round a great place to visit, with partners, kids, family, and friends
