The Italian Kitchen The Italian Kitchen
64 Ingram Street, Glasgow, G1 1EX
It could be argued the Italian Kitchen is a victim of its own success – it is almost always busy so service can occasionally stretch, and booking ahead is pretty much a must. Put that aside and what you get is a restaurant with a lovely atmosphere, a…
Amore Amore
30 Ingram Street, Glasgow, G1 1QA
At the quiet end of Ingram Street, Amore sits mezzanine height above pavement level which, along with the smart furnishings, lots of sparkling glass and stone-bake oven, provides a pleasant sense of occasion. It's a warm and welcoming enough space, but…
Fanelli's
Unit 4 Merchant Square, 62 Candleriggs, Glasgow, G1 1LE
Located in the polished but slightly soulless Merchant Square, this newcomer wins you over with its simplicity and warm welcome from staff who are eager to inform. Bruschetta fans have the choice of five in the antipasti – the chargrilled chicken and…
Amarone
2 Nelson Mandela Place, Glasgow, G2 1BT
Enter the plate-glass doors and down the elegant stairway into this basement venue, and it is clear that Amarone is at the classier end of the Di Maggio's chain. There's the slick modern décor, warm chocolate and neutral colours, and mix of open tables…
Di Maggio’s
21 Royal Exchange Square, Glasgow, G1 3AJ
Since 1985 Di Maggio's has been expanding from its original Shawlands venue to branches across the city. As the name suggests, the menu owes more to US Italian food than the old country, and while the considerably dense à la carte menu is the same in…
SoHo
84 Miller Street, Glasgow, G1 1DT
SoHo is a low-ceiling lively place that specialises in bar meals and pizzas and seems one of the few places in town to be regularly busy even midweek. Service is sharp and generally smiley and the menu is Mediterranean-influenced, with a Scots slant…
O Sole Mio
34–36 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 1HG
O Sole Mio has been serving customers for 47 years, and since changing hands more than a year ago the restaurant still promises to not disappoint. The menu is very varied, the staff are exceptionally pleasant, and the venue’s new look is sleek yet cosy.
Carluccio's
7 West Nile Street, Glasgow, G1 2PR
Since opening in November 2011, Carluccio’s has enjoyed a roaring trade and while it’s a chain restaurant it certainly doesn’t feel like one. It’s bright and has a warm welcoming vibe, as well as a cute little deli at the entrance. Once seated try…
Dino Ferrari
35–41 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3AT
Dino Ferrari is the new look for a much-loved favourite on the Glasgow Italian scene (it was formerly plain old Dino's, but the owners sold the Hope Street branch in 2011 and tweaked the name). The avuncular welcome and charmingly retro décor – both in…
Fratelli Sarti
42 Renfield Street, Glasgow, G2 1NF
There is an expectation with Italian restaurants that the experience be one of feeling loved and entertained as well as fed, yet few manage to pull off the feat with such aplomb as Fratelli Sarti. There's a uniformity of excellence across all three…
Osteria Piero
111 West Regent Street, Glasgow, G2 2RU
This trattoria-style restaurant has an intimate but laid-back atmosphere – the wood-panelled interior creates warmth and the the service of beer from a barrel in front of the bar is a fun, quirky feature. To start, the seafood filo parcel has a nest of…
The Bath Street Pony
207 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HZ
After a few name changes over the last decade, this venue seems to have finally found its feet as the Bath Street Pony, now enjoying its third year in the guide. Ironically, the décor hasn’t changed since previous incarnations – the contrast of open…
Massimo
57 Elmbank Street, Glasgow, G2 4PQ
Massimo's popularity seems as much to do with its location, opposite King's Theatre, as the typically Italian fare served up in this basement venue. Modern stylings such as wooden floors and glass partitions give the space a surprisingly light and airy…
Coia's Café
473–477 Duke Street, Glasgow, G31 1RD
An institution in the heart of the East End since 1928, Coia's Café is run by third generation Scots-Italian Alfredo Coia, easily identifiable by his smart braces. Coia's is one of only three licensed eateries on the Duke Street strip – and rarely…
Celino's
620–624 Alexandra Parade, Glasgow, G31 3BT
When a restaurant consistently hits the heights in the ways that Celino's manages it becomes difficult to ignore, even if located in a neighbourhood where passing trade is scarce, particularly in the evening. Stepping off a deserted Alexandra Parade…
Arcaffe
7 North Claremont Street, Glasgow, G3 7NR
Tucked into a side street joining nearby offices to Kelvingrove Park, Arcaffe is an unassuming and friendly little Italian bistro, with tables on the pavement outside and large windows for catching the midday sun. Bustling with a mix of young families…
Gambrino
333 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G4 9HS
With its warm, cosy interior, dim lights, terracotta tiles and worn wood, Gambrino feels like a rustic Tuscan taverna, even on a rainy Glaswegian night. The menu is simple, focusing on a few things and doing them well – pizza, pasta and a handful of…
The Big Blue
445 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G12 8HH
A perennial student favourite and something of a West End institution, the Big Blue endures in its picturesque location by the Kelvin. Portions are hearty enough to satisfy diners with big appetites. The fried calamari with lemon is a tasty starter and…
Firebird
1321 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TL
A West End institution over the past decade or so, Firebird has always been known primarily for its pizzas (which can be bought to takeaway). Hand-made and cooked in a wood-fired oven, giving them a faint smokey flavour, they are thin and crispy with an…
Tony Macaroni
4 Byres Road, Glasgow, G11 5JY
With several branches in and around Glasgow, the most recent being the Merchant City venue in the classy setting of the Italian Centre, and with a sisterly relationship with ice-cream supremo Nardini's, Tony Macaroni is a busy man. The three levels…
Battlefield Rest
55 Battlefield Road, Glasgow, G42 9JL
Prepare for your senses to go into overdrive when you visit this gem of a restaurant. It's brimming with tables, diners and waiters, and if you could bottle the atmosphere then you’d surely be able to sell it, if only to the people who fill this place…
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…
Bellini
67 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3YR
Bellini is a lovely little pocket of Italy in the heart of Shawlands. Almost all the staff are Italian and, beef aside, all produce is from Italy, and with no freezer on the premises, everything is fresh. Thanks to this the restaurant has a faithful…
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…
The Partners Italian Bistro
1051 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G12 0XP
This classy looking bistro tucked away near Anniesland offers an upmarket experience within a highly stylised, spacious interior. A lovely buttery, rich crab fettucine is a great opener, but though the dolcelatte soufflé is in itself satisfying, the…
