  “Lovely food, lovely service and a stunning atmosphere. You're often felt too rushed in these sort of restaurants, it simply has never been the case in the few times I've visited Gloriosa. Staff are so accommodating and make you feel very comfortable. The food is always superb, introducing exciting seasonal flavours that you would never think to combine at home. Truly is one of the gems in Glasgow. Class personified.”

  “We had a fabulous family lunch at Gloriosa. The food is truly outstanding. It is best to share dishes much like tapas. Unlike many restaurants, Gloriosa provides really good quality children's food. Children are made welcome too. Cheese pasta is simple and often boring, but here it ticks all the boxes. For adults, the roast half chicken is a great main. The fish dishes are great too.”

  “Had lunch here twice during rainy Glasgow season. Food are really light and fresh (feel so satisfying for my asian stomach), good vibe, and close to Kelvin hall, art musuem and University of Glasgow.”

  “Brilliant food and service was first class. I understand why everyone raves about the focaccia”

  “I went there because of the lovely reviews the place had, but the lovely name “Gloriosa” has nothing to do with the experience I had. I really do not recommend it at all. As soon as you walk in, you can see there is very little effort put into the decoration, and the chairs and tables are not comfortable. The menu is very small, and the dishes come without any sides, which is disappointing considering the price. We paid £20 for four sardines the size of a finger, and the pork chops cost £36 but arrived lukewarm were salty and had more fat than meat, without even a salad or a piece of potato on the side. The focaccia was also very salty, and the amount of olive oil served with it was barely a teaspoon. The service was average, nothing special. For a £76 bill, I was expecting much better quality and more generous portions.”

  “Hands down the best lunch we had in 2 weeks in Scotland. The best artichoke I’ve had in my entire life! Led Zeppelin playing on the stereo for bonus points. 15 pound for pasta and salad lunch special. Yum yum yum yum yum.”

  “The atmosphere is lovely and the staff are incredibly friendly. The food was amazing, though the seafood portions were a bit small. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I’d love to return and try more dishes.”

  “Delicious Mediterranean food and wonderful staff. However, in spite of food being Mediterranean focused, my vegan dining companion didn't have a lot of choice and the menu definitely needs a vegan pudding that isn't just a sorbet.”

  “My experience at gloriosa was great! Our server was very welcoming and knowledgable, me and my friends had a great time. We started with some oysters which were phenomenal. Also had artichoke for the first time! Overall the food was very decent, however, some dishes lacked a little flavour. The pudding was underwhelming. The atmosphere and ambience in the restaurant was very enjoyable. Special mention to the spicy margaritas we had, they were the highlight of my meal. Definitely make a reservation here.”
