The best food I’ve had in Edinburgh by far, had a try of everything and was so impressed! Will definitely be recommending this to anyone who visits Edinburgh.All the arancini were delicious in their own way, I couldn’t pick a favourite! Left feeling super satisfied and pleased with the kind level of service they provide here too.Can’t wait to return

we got some arancini here this morning and it was so delicious we immediately came back for more - Im now finding out 'Cala Cala' is a Sicilian term used to describe exactly this! A very aptly named little food stop. Totally delicious

Stopped by here on the way home from the football, it was quite late so unfortunately they didn’t have the arancini ball I was looking for, they only had a mushroom one and a blue cheese one, since I hate mushrooms I went for the blue cheese option and it was brilliant well worth the money!

A taste of Sicily! My partner and I tried several items from Cala Cala's menu. The chef, Luca, was excellent. He talked us through the menu and made several recommendations based on our preferences - It was exactly what we needed on a cold Scottish day, warm tasty food!We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town. Thank you.

I'm from Sicily and I recently tried Cala Cala's arancini, and I must say that they are absolutely delicious. The crispy, golden exterior gives way to a heavenly mix of creamy risotto and flavorful fillings. It's a taste of Sicily that warms the heart and satisfies the soul in Edinburgh. Thank you very much, guys.

Food was amazing, felt like being back in Italy! Fresh ingredients and big portions. The arancini were my favorite: crunchy outside with a soft and melting core inside. Incredible value for money, I ordered a box with 4 arancini, 1 side and 1 dessert and it lasted for dinner and lunch the next day. Service was professional and the delivery arrived on time. Will definitely order again!
