  “Lovely food. Seafood linguine was a delight. They fitted us in, booking just an hour before. Service was a bit of an issue. Wine recommendation was to 'go to tesco', the subsequent secret 'better wine' was not as nice as the Merlot originally chosen, plus overcharged us for it and 2 side orders were overcooked and inedible. We were told service charge wasn't optional (as we wanted to reflect our feeling on service) but were again quite rudely dealt with when we didn't pay the 20% Such a shame as so much potential to be incredible with the amazing food. Just the oddball waiter just changed the entire vibe of the place.”

  “Celebration menu. We had just bought our new house and booked table to celebrate. Food was good as usual but was slapped down on table. Waiting staff seemed disinterested and bored. Barely talked to us nor acknowledged our presence for most of time there. Tried to order a second bottle of wine to celebrate but told surily that they were closing early and no time. So much for us trying to celebrate! Why take bookings at 7.30 for the celebration menu if you're closing at 9.30? We felt the staff were pulling an early night despite lots of people still in restaurant. Very sad and disappointed as we used to be loyal and regular customers.”

  “Went with a group of 30 from work and service was perfect from meal to drinks. Couldn't fault anything from food to friendliness of staff who couldn't be anymore helpful and pleasant”

  “Came here for lunch, it was great. Food was tasty. I had the haggis bonbon starter and lasagne main. Lasagne came right after I finished the starter so it's well timed in that regard. Average wait time, I think it was around 15-20 minutes. Was asked for a drinks order a minute or so after sitting down. I know other reviewers didn't like the service recently but I greatly enjoyed how little I was talked to. It let me just eat my lunch and read a book in peace. -1 star for the atmosphere since the room felt kinda cramped yet exposed. No other issues though, and it was nice and quiet.”

  “Nice decor inside and friendly front desk. The service was very slow, from waiting to place an order, to receiving food, to asking for the check, to paying the bill (so be aware). Recommend avoiding the seafood special dish. The rice was hard and crusty. The “special” is basically the mussels appetizer and sea bass filet, with 1 shrimp, 1 scallop, and 1 bite of monk fish. The cooking appears to just heat the food, and then the sauce is placed separately on the bottom of the plate below the food.”

  “Having been a regular customer, a number of years ago, when I worked nearby, I was looking forward to taking my wife for a pre-theatre dinner. Sadly, first impressions were not good. There was no warmth in the welcome from the manager, there was a perfunctory showing us to a table, from which we were then moved. A drinks order was taken but the manager refused to take an order for the meal (we were looking to save a bit of time). The food when it arrived was excellent, and we enjoyed it (steak and linguine) and the wine. But when it came time to pay, the manager tried to charge us for a two-course order. No apology was offered when this was pointed out. It was clear that there was no desire to welcome us back to the restaurant. And we won’t be returning. Most disappointed”

  “Great italian spot. Unfortunately the experience was tarnished by the hostess who interrupted us mid bite of our dessert to settle the bill 20 min before closing. When I requested the we may be allowed to finish our meal, this clearly annoyed her resulting in customer service dropping to a zero out of 10. She was extremely rude and left me with a bad taste in my mouth, regardless of the quality of the meal. I should probably have requested the forced gratuity be removed, but let’s not be petty… like her.”

  “Went there twice within a week when I was in Glasgow ! Authentic Italian restaurant. Great ambience. Would be good if there's an indication of the Chef's special for the day as the server was not sure. Otherwise, pleased with the place.”

  “Revisited on 06Dec2024 Disappointed this time round. Confusing menus, unhelpful staff during order taking. It wasn’t a welcoming experience comparing last visits. Food was good but overall experience could have been better. Previously Absolutely fabulous Authentic Italian restaurant in Glasgow! From the settings to the service, the quality of food to the culinary skill. Love it! ❤️”
