Moratti

Moratti is an Italian pizza and pasta takeaway on St Mary Street, the short lane connecting the Canongate — the lower section of the Royal Mile — south toward the Cowgate. The area sits close to the Scottish Parliament and Dynamic Earth visitor attraction at the bottom of the Royal Mile, and the street also has a cluster of Indian and Bengali restaurants including Vinyasa nearby.

The kitchen specialises in Italian food with pizza at its core, alongside pasta dishes. A food hygiene inspection in June 2023 awarded a Pass with "Very Good" scores across food handling, cleanliness, and management of food safety. The shop trades as a straightforward pizza and pasta operation aimed at the local residential and evening visitor trade in this quieter southern section of the Old Town, away from the heaviest Royal Mile tourist congestion.
