Amalfi Pizzeria
148 West Nile Street, Glasgow, G1 2RQ
In the perfect spot for a bite to eat before the flicks or after the shops, Amalfi has transformed over the past few years from an old-fashioned Italian café to an inviting, upmarket diner. One narrow room, the glass frontage and visible kitchen lend…
Amore Amore
6 Shuttle Street (Corner of Ingram Street), Glasgow, G1 1QA
Located in a dull corner of the Merchant City, Amore briskly caters for workers and shoppers by day and is a good choice for families and work nights out with its generous space and cheerful informality. The central round booth is particularly handy…
Amore Dogs
104 Hanover Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1DR
The first sight that greets diners is a huge picture of Botticelli’s Birth of Venus with the goddess replaced by a giant dog's head. It’s one of many homages to the owner David Ramsden’s beloved pets that inspired his dog-themed restaurants. Blond-wood…
Arcaffe
7 North Claremont Street, Glasgow, G3 7NR
Frequented by office workers who disdain the trend for a quick bite at one’s desk, Arcaffe’s kitchen serves up hefty portions of proper food, providing somewhat of a challenge to clear the plate. It’s a quiet, comfortable café with fresh, neutral décor…
Bar Milano
2 Mains Avenue, Eastwood Toll, Glasgow, G46 6QZ
From its pleasantly neutral décor and friendly service to the suburban location, Bar Milano ticks all the boxes for a comfortable neighbourhood trattoria. It’s housed in a converted bank but where such buildings often possess a cold grandeur, the…
Bar Roma
39a Queensferry Street, Edinburgh, EH2 4RA
Set among a clutch of West End style bars, Bar Roma has packed its bright, roomy interior for three decades – seemingly without too much effort. The large, kitsch, plastic tree helps set a vibe that's low in pretension and high in conviviality; often…
Barbarossa
Cartside House, 1–7 Clarkston Road, Glasgow, G44 4EF
The welcome here tells you that these people care about your evening. The décor, like the service is smart, crisp and metropolitan. The restaurant is out of town but near Cathcart railway station, so do come by train in order to take advantage of the…
The Bath Street Pony
207 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HZ
Since its arrival in 2009 the Pony has built up its reputation as a worthy addition to the cool bars on the Bath Street strip. It does a roaring trade in pre-theatre meals in the 5–7pm timeslot – at other times you can order Scottish and Mediterranean…
Battlefield Rest
55 Battlefield Road, Glasgow, G42 9JL
From outside this tardis-like attractive former tram shelter, has more tables than you'd imagine, and a cosy atmosphere when busy, which it frequently is. The ambitious menu is large and starters include crêpes, salads and bruschettas as well as…
Bella Napoli
85 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3YR
From the street Bella Napoli looks like a run-of-the-mill Italian deli, but discerning food lovers know that through the back, past the racks of wine and tins of olives, is a reliable restaurant of some worth. While the front cafe offers casual…
Bellini
67 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3YR
Formerly known as Bacco Italia, Lucca Staiano has taken over ownership of the restaurant from his brother. Wooden tables and red upholstery give Bellini a smart, warm feel. The service is warm too, and the kitchen's ambitions don't stop at pizzas and…
The Big Blue
445 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G12 8HH
Once again part of the Paperinos group after a flirtation with other management, this West End favourite’s chief selling point is its riverside location, the bar section opening on to the Kelvin with outdoor tables that are always packed in summer…
La Brava
679a Clarkston Road, Glasgow, G44 3SE
La Brava has been quietly serving its grateful, local Netherlee clientele for well over a year now – but the secret is out, so book ahead and travel south for some excellent Italian food. It is a deli and bistro operation with just a few tables for…
Café Antipasti
305 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3HQ
The faux rustic Italian décor may look a little tired but there is nothing tired about the service which is pleasant, efficient and warm. The à la carte menu is flexible and the tapas section makes it tempting to try a few starters. The salt and pepper…
Café Cherubini
360 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G4 9HT
Perfectly placed for people-watching, Café Cherubini is a cosy spot for nursing a good Italian coffee or a cheeky Peroni. Decorated in warm yellow with quirky artwork on the walls, ivy hanging from the mezzanine, and service so laid-back it might…
Café Domenico
30 Sandport Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6EP
Café Domenico may be a stone’s throw from Leith shore’s Michelin-studded gastro corner but it's a million miles from its swish neighbours in style. The interior is mostly narrow and hall-like, covered in space-enhancing mirrors, and there’s little else…
Canasta Bistro
1102 Cathcart Road, Mount Florida, Glasgow, G42 9EG
Within a pizza throw of Hampden stadium, Canasta has become a celebrated restaurant in Glasgow's Mount Florida – an area not known for great dining options. It's cosy inside, with chequered tablecloths and scatter cushions contributing to an informal…
Celino's
620–624 Alexandra Parade, Glasgow, G31 3BT
This is a family-run restaurant and the welcome is fittingly warm and homely. To get to your table you pass through the long-established deli. It’s a feast for the eyes which heightens anticipation of the delights to follow. And you won’t be…
Coia's Café
473–477 Duke Street, Glasgow, G31 1RD
When you’ve been in business since 1928, you must build up a lot of regulars – perhaps that’s why this Dennistoun institution has such a large menu, because they can’t risk disappointment by dropping any old favourites. It’s an odd mix of traditional…
Cruz Bar and Restaurant
14 The Shore, Edinburgh, EH6 6QN
It tries to do lots of things with varying degrees of success, but no one can deny that Cruz is among the most distinctive drinking and dining venues to be found in Edinburgh. A First World War minesweeper boat permanently moored on the Water of Leith…
Delivino
6 King Street, Crieff, PH7 3HA
Part deli, part restaurant, part wine café, part off licence, Delivino is a master of all these trades. The interior is bright, the original v-lined walls painted New England style, neutral colours with some pieces of antique furniture adding…
Di Maggio’s
21 Royal Exchange Square, Glasgow, G1 3AJ
The well known Di Maggios chain has been expanding since the early 1980s – a sign their formula works. Whether dining in the bohemian West End with its thick red carpets and dark décor or the stylish Royal Exchange Square – 1930’s art deco interior…
Divino Enoteca
5 Merchant Street, Edinburgh, EH1 2QD
The enoteca wine bar is one of the great joys of visiting Italy, and since June 2010 Edinburgh has had its own slice of Milan hidden below George IV Bridge. Nestled in a stripped-down basement in the Old Town, Divino is stylishly fitted out in chrome…
Ecco Vino
19 Cockburn Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1BP
Edinburgh’s wine bar scene might be expanding, but this intimate cubby hole on Cockburn Street has a decade on all of them. Ecco Vino is firmly Italian in its menu: generous plates of antipasti share a billing with enticing fish and meat dishes, pastas…
La Favorita La Favorita
325–331 Leith Walk, Edinburgh, EH6 8SA
The hectic craft of kneading and folding pizza dough is the first thing you see on entering this busy Leith Walk eatery. Walk past the front counter, through the lively, three-pronged dining area, and you'll notice most diners are working their way…
