The story
Civerinos, on Hunter Square, brings an Italian-American sensibility to Edinburgh’s pizza scene. As Only Scrans notes in their food guide, this isn’t your standard slice: expect creative options like a pizza lasagna and a Chicago-style deep dish, alongside a Giant Mozzarella Stick with Ranch Dip. It’s a place that leans into indulgence and mash-ups, offering a menu that feels both familiar and unexpected.
The vibe is trendy and playful, fitting for a city that loves its pizza but appreciates a twist. While the restaurant carries a solid 4.4-star rating, the real draw seems to be its willingness to experiment—without losing the comfort of classic ingredients. For those ready to venture beyond Neapolitan, Civerinos offers a compelling, cheese-laden detour.

Giant Mozzarella Stick with Ranch Dip
The giant mozzarella stick was absolutely outstanding. It was very very good, especially with the ranch dip. It could have been a meal in itself.
- Lasagna
Chicago-Style Deep Dish Pizza
The Chicago-style deep dish pizza was the closest you can get to a real Chicago pizza outside of Chicago. It was incredible — they're doing all the right things here. I highly recommend coming here.
