Andiamo Milngavie in East Dunbartonshire

Took my mother here for lunch. The lunch menu was really cheap considering the quality food and location of the restaurant. We were very satisfied. I had the chicken stroganoff which was delicious. The minestrone soup was the best I've ever had.

The best risotto I have ever tasted. Great to see a range of gluten free options, and the staff were super friendly and helpful along the way.

Love this place. Food is excellent. We came last year while on camping trip and made a plan for a whole day again this year around making sure we could eat here again. Highly recommend xx

An utter disappointment. At first it was a very nice, eclectic atmosphere. But after an hour, service was dreadful, the food overrated and expensive. Blunt, no taste, and it was served in a tinfoil on plate! Definitely not recommend it for it's service and prices.

Used our itison voucher that was a Christmas gift on Sunday afternoon. Organised a baby sitter and ended up running late for our booking, we phoned up in advance to check this was okay and the staff were very pleasant and accommodating to us which was appreciated. When we arrived the cleanliness wasn't up to scratch at the table. The drinks menu was covered in dried up pasta sauce which was very off putting. These should be easy to wipe down but had obviously sat for a while. The floor was also a disgrace. If you have white tiles and are serving pizzas and pastas, I'm afraid you are going to have to get a brush and shovel and agive the floor a spray/wipe after cleaning the tables. It was really grubby and very noticeable. The itison menu was fine with a varied choice, but felt that we got treated differently to those paying a la carte. Just simple things like my partner ordering pate and being served oatcakes rather than the bread that was on the menu without explanation. But the table next to us who order afterwards were given the lovely fresh bread. The staff also weren't particularly attentive. I sat with an empty glass from before my main meal arriving, and none of the waiting staff asked if we were okay or wanted more drinks at any point during the main or dessert course. They put down and cleared the plates without asking if we needed anything else or even rehung the clear the empty glasses. Only the waiter at the end end offered teas and coffees but by that point we just wanted out as the service felt completely off. Would maybe be helpful if you had the staff cover certain tables and they could give better customer service. We had 5 different waiting staff during a 3 course meal, so one or two to a section would probably run smoother and be better managed. I think that is the first time I've ever left a restaurant or licensed premises without tipping but the service was really not good at all. Which is a shame as the food and wine was lovely.

Always good service and food. However the prices have risen significantly x

Very good but I wasn't there today?!

Had the 3 course lunchtime menu, We weren't disappointed, and the staff were great and very attentive. Lovely decor. The food was excellent, was my first time visiting, and will definitely be back. 👌

Excellent food and great variety

Great service, lovely staff. Portions were excellent. Good wines. What more could you ask for? Left feeling satisfied and content.

Got this for a gift for Xmas did not disappoint the meal was lovely staff very friendly and helpful nothing was to much bother we had the 3 coarse lunch time menu it was well worth the money and the food was excellent.

Thank you Andiamo for a lovely lunch for our group today, good service ,wonderful hospitality and great food. You gave many elderly folk in Milngavie another special day. Thank you.

Second time at Andiamo's within 4 weeks with my partner. I phoned the booking a week in advance and requested a window seat which we where not given on the night despite noticing other empty ones and the fact a couple coming in after us got one which was slightly disappointing. I had breaded mushrooms to start with and offered one to my partner and on eating this he pulled out a fairly big piece of white plastic he called the waiter over and he said he would take it to the manager but no one got back to explain anything or apologise for this so therefore no mention or compensation which I found quite unbelievable. I couldn't fault the food or service but because of this incident I don't think I'd go back. On reading other reviews I have noticed the manager only seems to reply to the good ones. Pretty poor indeed.

Nice food, always a good standard of service and cleanliness. Worth a visit .

...Everything was delicious, super friendly staff...I can't wait to go back 😊

Food let you down…. Starters (soup and mushrooms) were quite nice. Main courses were awful, fish smelled badly, chips were not hand cut chips both cooked when the oil was not hot enough. Pizza was poor. We were asked at the start of the second course if everything was ok , my wife replied it’s ok and I stated no, an alternative was offered and declined. I paid the full amount for the meal with no discount asked for by me and not offered by the restaurant.

Wee bit hot but was a busy Sunday lunch so could be expected

Value for money, risotto was excellent

Don't recommend Andiamos,quality of food really less than average. Also have witnessed senior member staff bullying young member of staff. I have heard this is quite common practice in that place. Unpleasant to witness and very unprofessional, won't be back and certainly won't recommending it to anyone! Shame on you Andiamos!

Absolutely perfect! We shared the mussels and calamari for starter and each had a pasta main! Food was 1st class delicious - staff were friendly and attentive and atmosphere lovely!

Lovely meal can’t fault anything

I know there is a "cost of living crisis" but for 02 January evening the restaurant was the quietest we have seen. Have been coming for over twenty years and even the staff looked new - change of management ? Talking of staff the service was very poor - I left no tip. The waitress made it plain she would rather be elsewhere and needs training that service with a smile ( however false ) enhances the customer experience. In terms of the food and drinks - no Rose wine was available, no sticky toffee pudding, and the gluten-free toast was so poor compared to previous visits - it looked like standard defrosted supermarket GF bread with a piece of cheese placed on top. We decided we will not return as there are plenty of alternatives. A real shame really.

Absolutely awful New Year Eve food was dreadful no vegatables or condiments on table £75 each. Avoid at all costs. DJ was a joke never opened his mouth to greet anyone, downloaded music !! One person was smoking vape disgraceful

Last Wednesday my son took me, my wife, his partner and his 2 young children for an early dinner at Andiamo. I ordered Lasagna. When it arrived, I found it served very hot in the dish (as they usually are in restaurants) but the mozzarella topping was so stringy that I found it almost impossible to separate and difficult to eat. The centre of the dish was solid lumps of pasta (which I left) with the only meat evident round the edges and that didn't taste very good. On reflection, I should have returned the dish but instead I left most of it rather than cause a fuss. The journey home involves a drive of an hour and a half. An hour into the journey I began to feel so unwell with excruciating stomach pain that I had to stop the car and ask my wife to drive the rest of the way. When I got home, I was shivering and feeling so unwell that I went to bed immediately. It got worse. After midnight, I was violently sick and vomited my stomach contents (Lasagna!). In the morning I suffered diarrhea and felt so unwell that most of Thursday was lost. When my son phoned to speak to the female manager to explain what had happened, she undertook to speak to the chef and phone him back. This she did explaining that the lasagna had been prepared on Monday and was a reheat in the pizza oven. Her response was to ask if I had a doctor's note to prove that I was unwell. There was no hint of an apology or any other gesture of goodwill. To me it was a dreadful experience and we will certainly not be returning.

Won’t be back. Food and service was very poor. We even had one family member with food poisoning after the dodgy lasagne. Despite calling to let the manager know there was no apology or offer of any gesture of goodwill. Quite unbelievable really. Do yourself a favour and go somewhere else who value their customers.

Great Italian food; friendly, speedy service. Exactly what you want for a family meal - would happily go back again.

Been 3 times, every time, the food absolutely amazing! And staff were all very pleasant. Please! Keep up the good work 👌

Thank you Andiamo for a lovely lunch for our group today, good service ,wonderful hospitality and great food. You gave many elderly folk in Milngavie another special day. Thank you.

A quiet Monday lunch - delicious food with efficient service. The restaurant is large but diners were seated close enough to create a bit of atmosphere.

This is our second visit here. We had enjoyed the first visit, so returned. We were a party of 4 for lunch. The servers were all dressed in Halloween costumes so that was fun. The restaurant is large inside but I reckon there were only 10-12 tables occupied throughout our stay. The service wasn’t great from the start, however it became non-existent after a while. We had finished our main courses and they had been cleared. We continued sitting chatting then realised that we hadn’t seen a server in quite a while (20 minutes or more - and we were in a section with 6 occupied tables). One of us went and collected dessert menus from a server at the door, stating that we were a bit short of time. Regardless, we were ignored on the one further occasion that a server passed our table. We decided to skip dessert and coffee and just went and asked for the bill. The food - which had been very good last time - was very disappointing. 2 of us had fried mushrooms and 2 had soup - these all were ok. However the mains (chicken burger, 2 pizzas and risotto) were pretty lacking in taste although they were large servings. I left a lot on my plate yet no-one asked if everything was ok with the food. The bill for the above - plus 8 soft drinks - was £31 each which wasn’t great value considering the quality of food and service. To be fair to the servers, there appeared to be only 3 of them doing serving, greeting at the door and working the bar - but it was not busy and they were posted missing for an extended period of time. I hate doing a review like this - the vast majority of my 1500 reviews are in the “Very good” category- but I thought it only proper to flag this.

Food was surprisingly bland and flavourless, portions were well sized but expected better for the price we paid. Waiters were nice

We visited for a family meal, the food was fantastic, good portions, fresh, hot and super tasty but my word the staff were atrocious. Not a smile between any of them, sullen, avoided eye contact at all costs to the point each of us was trying to catch someone’s eye for 10/15 mins at a time to order drinks. One blond female server managed to take a drinks order from us without uttering one word or making any eye contact. On the way out we said goodbye to her and she just shot us a look and carried on walking by. She was the worst but the others were similar although managed a word or nod here or there. Something has to be wrong for everyone we encounter to be so withdrawn. On the basis of the awkward, verging on unpleasant service, we probably won’t return despite the fantastic food.

Had a lovely family meal. All our food tasted lovely,nice and hot and well presented. Both our servers were very friendly with great customer service. Would recommend a lovely place for a day/night out!

overpriced and not very authentic

The food is great, tastes amazing and the amount of food is just right. It is a bit on the pricey side, but I think it is worth it because every meal I've had is lovely. The staff are polite, helpful and welcoming. When we were there they were setting up for someone's 70th so it seems they do go above and beyond if asked. The only thing I can say bad is the menu could have more on it to select from, but that's only because I want to try something different there.

There was a good selection of mains, we didn’t order starters, just as well as the portion sizes were large. The mains arrived in a timely fashion. 3 of us ordered the after eight dessert, but they were out of after eights which was disappointing. My husband ordered a coffee to come with the dessert and it never came, the desserts took a while too. Overall however the meal was delicious, apparently Alan made my risotto, well done Alan it was lush. Everyone enjoyed their meals if you hadn’t have run out of after eights and forgot the coffee I would have given 5 stars (and a bigger tip) still a solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ will come again

This is the best experience Italian experience we ever had in Glasgow! We have been served by Hannah, who was lovely and very attentive. Amazing decor and fab atmosphere. We will definitely be back again! J&A

Heel lekker gegeten en heel vriendelijke bediening. Top

Always excellent, staff are lovely. Will be going back over the weekend

Semi regular visitors at Andiamo. The food is nice and the staff pleasant.

Very good food and the staff were very attentive without being pushy.

Lovely family meal.good service despite place being busy

Lovely food...Nice service...would recommend 👌

Food was surprisingly delicious and great portions. Quite expensive but then most eating establishments are at present. Service was slow to remove empty plates but otherwise all good. Just one thing could be improved - put soft socks on the base legs of chairs. The scraping noise on the floor when other guests moved chairs was horrendous. Easily remedied

Wnet to this place with my hen party in June 2023 and we all loved it! Great decor and range of food, including vegan and gluten free menus. I had a great Aperol Spritz and a delicious lobster ravioli. 💯 Recommend

We went for a family celebration and was unfortunately let down by service. Food is ok, though nothing special, but their service is really lacking. Long wait times and lack of attentiveness to customers. Some staff walk around emotionless and like zombies. Not good value for money. Was unfortunate as we were looking forward to this celebration- won’t be back

Poor service- overpriced food. Disappointed. Italian restaurants need to try hard to stand out- this was pretty ordinary at expensive prices. Service awkward and patchy. All in all a cringy experience, not enjoyable.

Shocking. Food average and overpriced. Service slow. Went there for daughters 21st and embarrassed us by challenging age AT THE TABLE in front of the group. This was AFTER already serving us all several drinks! Will not be back and I wouldn’t go either unless you want a special occasion ruined.

Great selection of wines. The salmon dish and aticky toffee pud were to die for. 😃

We dined here as a family of 3 (2 adults + one 3 year old). Dedicated kids menu and gluten-free menu, and dealt very well with my husband's gluten and dairy allergies. Delicious Italian food - the mussels were super fresh! Lovely bright and spacious seating area. Would recommend, if you're in the area.

Great day in Andiamo with fantastic frends had lunch in the sunshine and great wine and beers. Was good is see the staff are all still working with Pauline.

2nd time we have been. This time we took our 2 year old grand daughter. The service and food are excellent. 100% will return.

Lovely looking restaurant and we were seated quickly. Attentive staff and served in good time. We ordered the Andiamo combo, a calzone and mushroom ravioli. Thoroughly enjoyed each dish. Will gladly visit again.

Food is absolutely delicious, would recommend to anyone to try it

Had a lovely meal at Andiamos Milngavie Staff were fantastic service was very good for a busy Saturday night Food was excellent, would highly recommend Had a lovely evening 10/10

Best food out and staff amazing

They mistakenly forgot about us! but the waitress did offer to compensate for our wait!! And we noticed later that our bill had been reduced!! We will go back it was handled well by the staff & the food was fantastic..

With 22 of us celebrating a special event, we went to Andiamo's last night. I've passed it many times when visiting Milngavie, and wondered what it was like. Now I know! Excellent. The service was great and very efficient. The food did not disappoint, and we all had different things. There was a nice ambience to the place. I will certainly go again and I recommend it highly.

Tasty Italian cuisine, prices that won't break that bank. The staff handled our party of 20 admirably. Misunderstanding over an extra dish that wasn't ordered being billed to us was easily cleared up. Parking close might be an issue at busy times, as there's only a small car park attached to the restaurant.

Fantastic meal for both of us. Great slection on menu and service excellent. Have been previously and would certainly come again.

Very nice place went for lunch food was good staff very nice would go again

Food was sensational, very busy for a Tuesday night

Fabulous food & great ambience.

Services on the slow side. This may be due to staff shortages. Overall a very good experience.

Great location and the food and the service was amazing. Would highly recommend a visit and would recommend Penne Barisi, really tasty and the best pasta dish I've had in a while

Lovely meal. Restaurant was busy. Garlic bread wasn’t best but lasagne and chicken pasta with spinach was very tasty. Key staff who welcome and thank on arrival/ exit not around part lacking.Waiters looked as if they had been busy for hours.. could do with a bit of a smarten up. Good food though!

Really nice inside, staff all professional, the food hit the spot! Minestrone and chicken strips to start, and then a pizza and carbonara. Really enjoyed everything! First time here and would return.

My nephew and I have just left Andiamo this evening. I had purchased an Itison for the food and he was payng for the coke, sparkling water, and fries. As he is only 21 when he looked at the bill he did not want to tell me how much. We went outside and I asked to see the receipt. Instead of £11 he had been charged £45. I was shocked. The staff had taken all the Itison details. I use iItison all the time and have never experienced this. They were not bothered by this and muttered and then refunded the £34 and we were told you should have looked at the bill. I did not wish any more embarrassment so I phoned the manager when I got home. Her attitude was appalling She started.... some of the staff are new and are learning... You got your money back.... What else do you want me to say...and more. I said I would review it on Tripadvisor and she said. That's fine. Well this is one restaurant we will ever return to.

Great food excellent staff will defo be back

Booked for 13.30 but as Art Gallery was closed till 14.00 arrived early, no problem . Table for 2 ordered Fish and chips for one and smaller portion of Spaghetti Carbonara, both dishes arrived within 10 mins, both delicious washed down with a pint of Menebrea, also delicious. Service attentive and efficient atmosphere as you would expect in a busy Italian family restaurant. Toilets very clean an tidy

Very impressed with food and service

We have visited the restaurant a few times, including once a few weeks ago. We decided to get a takeaway instead and were throughly disappointed. We ordered a bruschetta and an Andiamo Combo. The bruschetta came with one small slice of garlic bread and a huge tub of topping. The topping seemed to be missing any dressing (no olive oil or balsamic) and the bread itself wasn’t very tasty. One slice also was nowhere near enough for the amount of topping or for the price (£6.95). What made this even more odd was my wife had this recently in the restaurant and it was very tasty. The Andiamo combo was pretty disappointing too. It came with two tiny portions of dipping sauce, which were nowhere near enough. The chicken in the box was extremely dry, which makes sense as the individual pieces were tiny. Overall this was quite different from our other experiences when we have eaten in. Takeaway food won’t always be the same as the restaurant experience, but prices should be adjusted to reflect that, as Andiamo seems to still charge dining-in prices.

Lots of choice. Food lovely. Staff are friendly and helpful. Tables are too close together though so it's pretty noisy.

Celebrated a family birthday, fantastic menu and service and the food was delicious! Looking for an excuse to return 😁

Family meal for approx 20 off a set menu. Good food and service. Restaurant staff very helpful from start to finish helping with menu options and large area for us to be seated.

Delicious Italian food. Very good value and service.

Delicious food and lovely inside. Very clean, nice staff too. A little slow for food but worth the wait.

Food delicious and very good value. Service excellent. We will definitely return. Parking available nearby at Lily Art Gallery.

A Milngavie classic. Friendly staff and delicious pasta.

Super friendly staff, an extensive menu and delicious cooking! Plenty of space, yet a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The portion sizes are very generous. We've been here for birthdays and family anniversaries and we're never disappointed.

A lovely meal again at this fabulous restaurant. Staff are so friendly and attentive. Never disappoints, even if visits are several years apart (from Australia). If you're visiting Milngavie, treat yourself to a lovely night out here.

Food, service, ambience all excellent as usual. Staff so attentive on such a busy Christmas Eve . Had a brilliant evening . Thank you Pauline and staff.

Always amazing food and good sized portions. Staff are very friendly and it's a place we will visit over and over again.

Great place,food was delicious, staff very friendly (that does make a difference) ,temperature of place was very warm and cosy.

Had two course Xmas menu plus garlic bread for starter served by pleasant staff promptly very good

£60 for 2 mains. 2 sides and 2 soft drinks . Tomato salad was one tomato sliced with a couple of bits of red onion. Mozarella garlic bread luke warm. Given dessert menu and no one came back . Only 3 tables going aswell ! So dissapointed . Won’t be back .

Enjoyed a nice meal here and good choice on the menu. However where we were sitting was absolutely roasting! 1 out of the 3 people who served us was polite, others were indifferent. Not sure we will return as a little bit pricey for the...

Warm welcome seated quickly.Great food and service which reflected on the restaurant being busy on a Sunday night.Extensive range of drinks .We we’re able to relax and enjoy our food without being rushed on. Will definitely return.

Tonight friday 17.12.2022 myself my wife and son decided to try andiamo , myself and son ordered the calamari . It was awful how it came out the kitchen , poor presentation and tastless it was a cheap frozen Iceland like dish ,to be honest I would be embarrassed serving them .After looking at it trying one bit each we sent the dish back. I would have expected a manager to come over and apologise, later in the evening a lady did come across to say we would not be charged for it . The pizza was my choice of main ham and mushroom I ate half it was at best average could have been more cooked, my son had pasta with Italian sausage again was around 6 out of ten .my wife had a burger which she enjoyed bar the caramelised onions that were cheap. The chips were very good. The deserts were OK although the waffle was not heater so again only half was consumed, we had a couple of coffees my latte was cold but I could not bring myself to complain the young girl who looked after our. Table was trying to apologise and help but the evening was not more than a 4 out of 10 . The quality of food is not good enough and would not recomend it.

Thank you to Pauline, Amy , Sophie and team for a great night on Saturday. Delicious food and great atmosphere plus some lovely Prosecco. I had sea bream which was the best and vegetables cooked to,perfection. Friends had turkey with all the trimmings which they...

Attended 80th birthday party lunch. 12 attendees and food and service were very good

We all had a wonderful evening, thanks to the great waitresses, so helpful, friendly and cheerful. They even sang happy birthday to me! Food delicious too.

Das Restaurant selbst ist sehr modern und sauber. Die Atmosphäre wirkt aber sehr kühl. Sehr wohl habe ich mich nicht...

Service was slow even on a quiet night. Food was average IMHO although others enjoyed their meal. Chicken was dry and tough in places.

A serendipity discovery in Milngavie. Excellent Italian food. Very reasonable Christmas menu, slightly limited for vegetarians. Service became slower as it got busier, and was still good. Near the station. Worth a visit. (7 miles from Glasgow).

Always loved Andiamos in the past but it’s not the same now. Had mussels for starter which were tiny and poor quality and despite asking for my pasta to be not too spicy I received the spiciest pasta ever! It seems the sauces are pre...

Minestrone soup was more like a thick broth Mince in lasagne and bolognase was horrible Sticky toffee pudding had a wierd aftertaste Stupid wee bottle of coke from the 70s

Very generous portions of food which all tasted amazing.

Had a great meal to celebrate Granddaughters Masters Degree Graduation. All the food was excellent and reasonably priced. The staff is were friendly and helpful. Bit surprised how empty the place was.

We had a delicious lunch on Sunday after a weekend of celebrations for my Uncle's 90th. Birthday. Thank you!
