Two Fat Ladies
118a Blythswood Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4EG
The second Two Fat Ladies restaurant may be that rare thing - a sequel that's better than the original. The first, at 88 Dumbarton Road, remains a good place to eat, but the new city centre enterprise (open for two years against the West End unit's 17…
Amarone
2 Nelson Mandela Place, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 1BT
Having only opened in 2006, the often packed dining room here on weeknights suggests that this restaurant from the DiMaggio team has hit the ground running. Its advantageous city centre location and smart setting attracts well-dressed couples and large…
The Butterfly & the Pig
153 Bath Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4SQ
Scotland
Unique, and maybe just a little zany, this flighty butterfly and dashing pig have made a rather refreshing splash across the Glasgow pub food scene. Eclectic retro décor typified by wingback chairs, velvet poufs, art deco crockery and odd, narrative…
The Grill Room at the Square
29 Royal Exchange Square, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G1 3AJ
What a room with a view: long glass windows at this upstairs restaurant maximise the 'wow' effect of the fairy lights strung across Royal Exchange Square. Tasteful, elegant furniture blends in nicely to the upmarket setting for the Grill Room at the…
The Loft Bar & Restaurant
The Grosvenor Theatre, Ashton Lane, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
This casual bar/restaurant (in the G1 Group) sprawls under the vast baroque ceiling of the original Grosvenor Cinema. Being just a stone's throw from the Glasgow University campus, the place bustles predominantly with trendy students dressed up for a…
The Italian Kitchen
64 Ingram Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1EX
Decorated in shades of red and cream, the sleek style of the Italian Kitchen is typical of this rather fashion-conscious part of Glasgow. In addition to pasta, risotto or Scotch fillet steaks (ranging from 9oz to 16oz), the menu features main courses…
Roastit Bubbly Jocks
450 Dumbarton Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G11 6SE
This unassuming little spot on Dumbarton Road playfully lulls patrons into a false sense of carelessness: a shower curtain keeps the draft out, and paintings on the wall are a cheerful hotchpotch of styles and eras. There's a BYOB policy (though it is…
Chinaski's
239 North Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7DL
An unassuming exterior lacking apparent signage lends Chinaski's a certain immediate hipness. It is inspired in name by barfly/writer Charles Bukowki's alter ego, and there are subtle references to the beat writer, though with no theme-bar triteness…
La Lanterna
35 Hope Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 6AE
Tucked away below Hope Street, there is a feeling that not too much has changed at La Lanterna since the doors were first opened in the 1970s. Decorated in a charmingly traditional style, the dining room features exposed wooden beams and pictures of…
La Tasca
39-43 Renfield Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 1JS
Given the somewhat booming Spanish music - with riotously colourful over-the-top decor to match - first time visitors here might worry that they're in for the Iberian equivalent of a classic resort 'English breakfast'. But relax (if you can stop your…
Balbir's
7 Church Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G11 5JP
The latest enterprise in a career that began at 17 and includes the opening of the first Ashoka in the 1980s, Balbir Singh Sumal has just transformed a Little Chef in Ayrshire into a roadside Indian diner. His greatest achievement to date, however, is…
Bar Milano
2 Mains Avenue, Eastwood Toll, Southside,
Glasgow,
G46 6QZ
Taking pride of place within the menu, a black and white photograph circa 1930 gives some context to the attractive Southside property that now houses this well-designed pizzeria. The former bank is surrounded by potentially dwarfing developments but…
Big Slope
36a Kelvingrove Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7SA
One of Glasgow's original style bars, Air Organic's space-age interior lost its lunar lustre long before its 2006 closure. In its place, Big Slope has offered a breath of fresh mountain air, taking its name and inspiration from hunting lodges in the…
An Lochan
340 Crow Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G11 7HT
Enjoy a meal at An Lochan (formerly Café Royale) and you'll not only have chef Claire McKie to thank but also Mary, Shonna, Arthur and Winston. These ladies and gentlemen are responsible for catching, gathering and shooting the scallops, oysters…
Urban Bar & Brasserie
23-25 St Vincent Place, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G1 2DT
Few of the usual connotations of the word 'urban' apply to this bar and restaurant, apart from the obvious one of not being in the countryside. Perhaps they really mean 'urbane', because it's certainly that - sophisticated, polished and rather suave.
Catch 22 Restaurant & Bar
158-166 Bath Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4TB
Part of Stefan King's empire of 40-odd enterprises (including Corinthian, Arta, Gong), Catch 22 shares the confident, efficient house style of the G1 Group. From the waiters' sharp black suits and gelled hair to the all-lower-case typography of the…
Dine
205 Fenwick Road, Southside,
Glasgow,
G46 6JD
Like a pearl in a bowl of marbles, Dine lights up an area of local businesses and takeaways. Its narrow wedge of an interior - teetering between cosy and cramped when busy - has gleaming white walls and tablecloths broken up by little more than rows of…
Maggie May's
50 Trongate Merchant City, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 5EP
What a difference a year makes. Now under the same management as Òran Mór, Maggie May (formerly Bluu) feels like a properly thought-out operation. The pursuit of cool is replaced by warmth, with reds and browns, muted lighting and a mix of dining chairs…
Salsa
63 Carlton Place, Southside,
Glasgow,
G5 9TW
Slowly, in the candle-lit space, all becomes clear: a sombrero, cowhide patches, earthy walls with photographs of poised Mexicans checking that tortillas are properly folded. This cosy basement venture near the Clyde is an easy walk from the city centre…
Arta
The Old Cheesemarket, 62 Albion Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1PA
A club, bar, restaurant and VIP lounge in one, Arta is a jewel in the crown of Stefan King's G1 empire. The vast, remodelled interior of the Merchant City's old cheesemarket recalls the set of some particularly lush Fellini epic - a phantasmagoria of…
Barbarossa
3-5 Clarkston Road, Southside,
Glasgow,
G44 4EF
This Southside favourite, a regular on our hitlist, has mastered a winning recipe of exceptional food served in stylish, welcoming surroundings by conscientious staff. The menu is a fusion of Italian and Scottish cooking, with lasagne and antipasti…
Mono
12 King's Court King Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 5RB
Scotland
Tucked beneath a largely neglected railway line, Mono is a well-used junction of food and music, where diners can browse in the indie record shop Monorail before tucking into down-to-earth vegetarian and dairy-free food. With its cream brick walls and…
Arisaig
140 St Vincent Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 5LA
Arisaig's co-owners, Stephen Bonomi and Naveed Rashid, have an admirable commitment to 'local food for local people', as it were, putting well-sourced produce into contemporary new forms for an understated take on Scotland with style. Elegant…
Bistro at One Devonshire Gardens
1 Devonshire Gardens, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 OUX
The Bistro at One Devonshire Gardens dares to ditch Glasgow's famed gallus vigour for Gallic elegance - symbolically, pitch-black blinds block out busy Great Western Road. Inside, a fastidiously polite head waiter and a helpfully ruminative sommelier…
The Living Room
150 St Vincent Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 5NE
Approaching the reception desk here, you'd be forgiven for thinking you were about to be vetted for admission into a snooty hotel. However, once you've been ushered through the doors by a member of the Living Room's genial staff, the welcome murmur of…
