Little Capo was a little gem. First the aroma. As soon as we walked in the smell made us never want to leave. The food was uniquely prepared, beyond fresh, and so delicious. Our server was Sophie who made the night even more special. What a great sense of humor and took care of my nut allergy with care and attention. So sad we’re leaving Edinburgh today.
