The story so far


It all began with the ambitions of 4 Italian friends that worked together in Edinburgh for 10 years, Giuliano, Angelo, Domenico and Pietro. One day they decided to work for themselves. So it began – ‘Giuliano’s Partnership’. Giuliano and Angelo the Italian Hosts and Domenico and Pietro the Italian Chefs – The Perfect Partnership. Our first restaurant opened in May 1990 and became an instant success, renowned country wide for excellent food, fine wine and the friendliest Italian atmosphere.

Alfresco`s was the latest addition to Giuliano`s opening in 1994
