Quick info
About Caprese Don Costanzo
On Woodside Crescent in Glasgow, Caprese Don Costanzo is an Italian restaurant built around a pizza-free menu of classic Italian fare. The kitchen runs a full menu alongside daily specials, and gluten free options are available. Specials are not priced on the menu itself and can appear unitemised on the bill, worth confirming before ordering. The nougat dessert closes things out. Live music nights run alongside the regular service, giving the room another draw beyond the food. Seating works on a walk-in basis rather than reservations, so parties arrive and are seated as tables become free. The approach favours traditional dishes over the pizza most Italian spots lean on, with specials changing day to day.

“Went for birthday pregig meal as a party of 5. Food was excellent and as we ordered main course specials the price was unknown until the bill came (unitemised). Worked out on average £37 per main. Just a heads up to watch when ordering specials. Lesson learned but would definitely go back.”

“This place! 👌 through a recommendation we headed here before a gig. From start to finnish the experience was outstanding. A very authentic yet classic Italian, the food was outstanding, lots of it. Great full menu, lovely staff and a very impressive waitress who knew all the menu off my heart. It was very busy and we where there early. Inexpensive for all we had. Loved it 😍😋”

Close behind is the staff, called friendly, warm and attentive. One host cleaned a reviewer's kimono sleeve after it draped into the tomato sauce, and a waitress knew the whole menu by heart. Several mention the specials alongside the regular menu, one reviewer singles out the gluten free service as excellent, and another recommends the nougat dessert. Some come before a gig, and one notes it was very busy even early.
