Run by a father and son team Lamora's ethos is all about serving great food at a price that won't break the bank. The restaurant is a nice, large open space with very little clutter; however, postcards from regulars dotted about a couple of walls give a nice personal touch. The compact menu appears to succeed because it doesn't try too hard, keeping things simple, and to good effect. Among the small selection of starters is a delicious chicken liver pâté, full of flavour and a perfectly pitched portion size. The gnocchi dolcelatte is also a highlight, light and oh so moreish. The mains selection doesn't stray far from Italian classics, including popular pastas and huge stone-baked pizzas. If its meat you are after then the veal saltimbocca will be a tender treat, with the lemon butter sauce complementing the greens and potatoes perfectly. The restaurant has a good wine list and they will happily recommend the ideal choice for your meal. Go for the gelato to finish, the Strawberry Blonde is ideal for sharing.
- High point: Doggy bags available for excess pizza
- Low point: Baby change area

the only decent meal the babies momma and i had in two weeks in grand britania in october 2008.
juicy plump mussles and mouth watering chicken liver pate followed by peppered sauced rib eye steak and wait for the bell of the ball, seafood risotto - my taste buds thought they wete having an orgasm.
almost makes me looks forward to my next trip to glasgow very soon.
