La Bonne Auberge
161 West Nile Street,
Glasgow,
G1 2RL
Tacked on to the reception area of the Holiday Inn, the overly fussy décor of La Bonne Auberge may make you think that the restaurant hasn’t changed much since the late 1970s when French food became popular in the UK. Still, when the starters arrive the…
La Lanterna
35 Hope Street,
Glasgow,

Torres
327 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3HU
If a little taste of the Med on Sauchiehall Street’s strip is what you’re after, then Torres fits the bill. It has all the clichéd hallmarks of a Spanish theme – chunky wooden chairs, terracotta walls, Gypsy Kings on the stereo and images of bulls…
City Café
Hilton Garden Inn, Finnieston Quay,
Glasgow,
G3 8HN
The City Café is a riverside hotel restaurant (under new ownership this year) boasting great riverside views and convenient proximity to concert venues. Servings are relatively small, so if ravenous then it’s probably best to plump for the full three…
La Parmigiana
447 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8HH
Behind the frosted glass window is a little nest of beautifully laid tables, deep red walls, dark wood and a ceiling as crisp and white as the stiffly folded napkins. The service, all starched aprons and bow ties, may be formal but it is also friendly…
Ashoka Ashton Lane
19 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
You’d be forgiven for thinking you had stepped back in time upon entering the charming Ashton Lane branch of the popular Ashoka chain. Things haven’t changed much since they first opened their doors 20 years ago – but that’s exactly the point, they…
Bellini
67 Kilmarnock Road,
Glasgow,
G41 3YR

Café St Honoré
34 North West Thistle Street Lane,

The Dining Room
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, 28 Queen Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1JX
While a fantastic selection of spirits is the focus in the Scotch Malt Whisky Society Scotland’s famous members’ bar, the food is definitely the star in the Dining Room, its upscale restaurant. A handful of tables in a light Georgian drawing room with…
The Jam House

36–38 Victoria Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JW
Maison Bleue is defiantly not a typical French restaurant. Or certainly not one from the mainland, as the influence here comes from further south than Marseilles. The culinary net soars across France’s once mighty empire, from spicy North African…
Cucina
Hotel Missoni, 1 George IV Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1AD
One thing that can be said for dining in a hotel restaurant owned by a multi-national, designer fashion house, is that it's likely to be a glamorous affair. From the smile on the Missoni-kilted doormen to the toilets worthy of a film star, the…
Tower Restaurant
National Museum of Scotland, Chambers Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1JF
For the best view in the Southside, try the roof terrace of the Tower, looking over to the Castle. Inside, the National Museum’s restaurant has dark, glossy tables and a modern take on food. Like the crisp fish finger which really tastes of crab.
Hotel du Vin
11 Bristo Place,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1EZ
Fact: eating out is way nicer than eating in. Or at least it is when the people who bring your food and pour your drinks are really, really lovely. This is well understood in Hotel du Vin, where the service is full of personality and pretty much…
Salisbury Hotel, Salisbury Road,
Edinburgh,
EH16 5AA
