Café Cossachok
Trongate 103, 10 King Street,
Glasgow,
G1 5QP
It may sound like a cliché, but there is quite literally nowhere like Café Cossachok, the ‘first and only authentic Russian Restaurant’ in Scotland. Despite having opened in 1998, on entering there is still the feeling of discovering a rare…
Khublai Khan Mongolian Barbecue Restaurant
26 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1LD
Kublai Khan takes culinary inspiration from the way 13th century Mongolian warriors said to have cooked their food over a campfire, on upturned. Diners can choose their starters – which range from vegetable wontons served with a sweet and sour dipping…
Boteco do Brasil
62 Trongate,
Glasgow,
G1 5EP
Inside this lively bohemian hangout the carnival atmosphere hits you. Brazilian flags and bold cultural murals set the scene while large screens ensure you don’t miss any footie action while supping a Brahma beer or caipirinha – Brazil’s national…
Elià
24 George Square,
Glasgow,
G2 1EG
Before being known for being nearly bankrupt, the Greeks were known as great philosophers. It makes sense then that the Grecian brain behind Elia has a good philosophy behind his food. You wouldn’t realise it at first glance of the menu – humus, olives…
The Calabash Restaurant
57 Union Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3RB
What The Calabash Restaurant lacks in interior décor, it makes up for in brilliantly imaginative cooking. Located down a steep flight of stairs at an unremarkable Union Street address, the menu is packed with colourful dishes from all over Africa…
Anatolia Chargrill
140 St Vincent St,
Glasgow,
G2 5LA
On arrival at Anatolia Chargrill, olives and fresh bread with dipping oil are brought to the table, giving you something to nibble whilst perusing the menu. It’s worth ordering a tasting selection as there are several interesting hot and cold options…
Nur
22 Bridge Street,
Glasgow,
G5 9HR
Run by a Scots-Egyptian couple, Nur is an oasis of warmth, friendliness and good food. A cosy mezzanine is furnished with low tables, divans and plenty of cushions, while the downstairs dining space is dotted with shisha pipes, papyrus and pottery. As…
Ad Lib
111 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 6LL
Both branches of Ad Lib share a menu that infuses a melting pot of global influences and a dash of Glasgow charm. The narrow New York-style bar at Hope St leads onto the large dining courtyard area, with red walls, rail lighting and photographs of…
Viva Brazil
87–91 Bothwell Street,
Glasgow,
G2 7AA
This Brazilian-style steakhouse makes the slightly threatening claim: ‘We won't stop serving you meats until you tell us to!’. This is no exaggeration. 'Passadors' or meat carvers, flit from table to table, serving up sausages and cuts of pork, beef…
Babylon Café
Clyde Place,
Glasgow,
G5 8AQ
This new Persian and Middle Eastern venture sits with an Indian curry house to its left and an Egyptian restaurant to the right – which sort of makes sense in world terms. It's nothing fancy inside – clean, crisp lines and tables hugging the walls on…
Alla Turca
192 Pitt Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4DY
Alla Turca mixes Scottish and Turkish fare well. The seafood salad of calamari and swordfish is the perfect size to whet your appetite, and is one of many interesting starters. These include carpaccio made with Scottish beef, olive oil and watercress…
The Bay Tree Café
403 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HY
Around since 1960, the Bay Tree Café has a relaxed air to it, the walls and shelves decorated with various Arabian/Mediterranean knick-knacks. If the décor evokes one region though, then the menu is far broader ranging. The breakfast menu is available…
The Greek Golden Kebab
34 Sinclair Drive,
Glasgow,
G42 9QE
‘Other restaurants want money, we want to please the people,’ Mrs Kyriacou proudly declares from the tiny kitchen at the back of delightfully over-decorated restaurant. The family has been cheerily filling bellies here since 1972, little has changed and…
The Khyber
221 St Andrew's Road,
Glasgow,
G41 1PD
Though the lightly spiced, smooth, buttery dhal is delicious, there’s no denying you come to the Khyber to eat meat. Welcome, then, is the special kebab starter with the chance to sample each of the meats on offer. Marinated lamb mince sheek kebab is…
Stravaigin
28–30 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NX
As this place pops up in most Glasgow guides, many a nationality can be found rubbing shoulders with die-hard regulars enjoying interesting Scottish produce given an international twist. Stravaigin’s well-known branding is ‘think local, eat global’. The…
Falafel Petra
27 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NX
Attracting mixed reviews already, this new kid on the Gibson Street block is a Lebanese sit-in over two floors and a take-away serving more than 50 halal dishes ranging from falafel and shawarma to seafood and pastry. The shawarma is a staple fast food…
Konaki Greek Taverna
920 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7TF
The menu at Konaki, located on Sauchiehall Street, is an embarrassment of Greek riches, all prepared with care and attention. While it may sound a bit much for a starter, the skordalia – mashed potato with garlic and olive oil – is delicious in its…
Persia
665 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8RE
A wonderful wave of exotic scents hit you as you enter Persia, and the menu certainly offers a unique taste of the Orient. Start with the baba ghannouj, perfect in its consistency with just the right amount of garlic to give it a kick, or sample the…
Athena Greek Taverna
1116 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8TD
This restaurant is a cosy and welcoming place, with years of preparing Greek fare behind it – one of the owner’s grandfathers ran the original Athena Greek Taverna in the city’s Southide, and culinary skill has obviously been passed on. The hummus makes…
Brel
39–43 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SG
Brel's become a West End fixture not just for its European-influenced food and drink but for a certain relaxed continental vibe giving it a rare sophistication so close to the university. The back beer-garden fills up on sunny days and also offers a…
Ketchup
44 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
Cynics may muse that Ketchup is Stefan King’s attempt to ‘start them early’ into the G1 mind-set, as the burgers and milkshakes ethos is clearly aimed at both students and children alike. Whatever ethos lies behind it, it is clearly working, as the…
Kember & Jones Fine Food Emporium
134 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8TD
Situated in the heart of foodie West End on Byres Road, Kember & Jones is an upmarket café-deli with a good line in kitchenware and books too, with an interior that manages that elusive blend of elegant and cosy. The menu mixes the contemporary with…
Cottier's
93–95 Hyndland Street,
Glasgow,
G11 5PX
Stencils on the walls, fairy lights and candles add plenty of character and atmosphere to proceedings in this converted church. Service is genuinely warm and helpful while suitably informal given the relaxed surroundings. The carpaccio of Inverurie beef…
Bibi's Cantina
599 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6HY
It’s often said that if you venture off the beaten track you’ll find treasures. This is true of Bibi’s – a cosy candlelit bistro offering fresh authentic Mexican-inspired cuisine at the west end of Dumbarton Road, but just a stroll from Partick Station.
