Bar Aldo's in Clackmannanshire

Lovely dinner. The meal was delicious . One of us is vegan and had a great pizza. The waitress was great, very helpful. Highly recommended!

Six months after our last visit, we returned (the same three customers) to this family run restaurant. Once again the staff were efficient without being fussy, the atmosphere for a Thursday evening was buzzing and the food was superb. I had the Burrata starter, then tagliatelle with steak/tomato/chilli sauce and Biscoff cheesecake. There’s not a huge choice of places in Alloa that aren’t pubs, so this is a wee jewel that I’d be more than happy to return to on a regular basis.

Amazing first-time experience with my girlfriend! Each of the staff was very chatty and lovely to talk to, their service was fantastic. The food was brilliant, truly authentic Italian food that made us feel like we were on holiday! Bar Aldo's was subject to a random power cut that night before we arrived, but it didn't stop them - the place being lit by candlelight made it feel so lovely! Respect goes to them for handling it so well, we will certainly be back :)

We arrived in town late without reservations on Valentine's Day yet they fit us in. The food was so tasty, the atmosphere was peaceful and the waiters were so friendly and helpful

Quite quiet when we went in but soon filled up. Food was delicious but a little short on veg - one and half baby potatoes, 2 heads of broccoli and 4 slices of carrots. A little more would have been appreciated

Lovely place to eat and excellent food

Lovely lunch recently as part of a celebration. Amazing food and great service as always 🙏

Friendly staff and good food. What more do you need. We were working in the area and fancied a night out of the hotel. A good little find. Will definitely return.

Come here tonight for a meal their was 8 of us! Not 1 of us had a bad thing to say every one enjoyed their meal and said they would return. The food was lovely. Great atmosphere and the staff were excellent.

Brilliant takeaway tonight. Such delicious pizza, delivery was quick and the food was fresh and hot (despite us being 5miles away). My dad said it was the best pizza he'd ever had :)

Lunch time date with five girlfriends. Staff were attentive and friendly. We shared three starters - focaccia, garlic bread, and cheese & garlic bread, which were all delicious and plenty for everyone. We each had different main courses, including vegetarian options with compliments from everyone on flavour and portion. Aldos is a reasonably priced gem.

Lovely little restaurant down one of Alloa's side streets. I was taken there for my birthday. The menu had plenty of choice, but I went for the fillet Stroganoff. Best I've ever tasted. Nice atmosphere. Waiters were attentive but not over bearing. I'll definitely be back. Only problem is I'll have to convince myself not to order the stroganoff again.

Been twice and I love it. The food is very good and the service from the staff is great. The staff are very friendly and joke around with you. The location is good because there is a car park around it so it’s easy to get parked.

First time visit and will be back. Lovely lunch, freshly cooked food and great friendly service. 2 x courses each, starter to share, bottle of wine and 2 x liquers for £63, great value!

A parte il mangiare ottimo, Aldo ed i suoi collaboratori sono persone squisite e gentilissime!! Quando veniamo in zona per lavoro da Aldo e’ tappa fissa!!

Super lovely dinner, drinks and dessert! Especially the tiramisu which was amazing!!!Service was perfect and everything was priced very fairly. A must if you are in the area for dinner!!!

Best Italian restaurant, Food delicious been going here for years Never had a bad meal in the place Service is fun always happy and remember people names great atmosphere

Great food (best scallops i have ever had), fantastic friendly service, wonderful atmosphere - thoroughly recommended.

Great evening, as always . Meal amazing, service first class. Thanks to all the staff. Lovely setting!!! ❤️ Another amazing evening in Aldo's . Highly recommendable. Starters and main course were first class. Thanks chef. . Love visiting this resteraunt.

Great authentic Italian food, served by attentive staff 😋

We've been coming here for years. Can't fault them. Family, romantic night out, girls night, they've done them all and will be doing them for our kids if they've anything to say about it.

Our server was good and the food was good i liked this restaurant 👍 thumbs up from me all around.

Had a Christmas Eve family meal here. Food was delicious and fresh. Really nice relaxed atmosphere 👌

Great atmosphere. Very clean and great food. The staff are very friendly.

Went with my son and ordered of the Christmas menu. I had minestrone soup then Tacchino ( Turkey,pigs in blankets, potatoes, Brussel sprouts in a cheese sauce with bacon, roasted carrots and parsnips). Son had pâté then Tacchino. Absolutely gorgeous meal and reasonable prices. Washed down with a lovely Chardonnay. Great service from the waiter's. Good atmosphere.

Fantastic 60th Birthday party last night.Staff were very polite & friendly.Food arrived quickly.Large portions.Excellent food choice .Tasty dishes..We had a room to ourselves! Great venue!!

Great food, fantastic company and marvellous wine.... Aldo was magnificent... I'd love to go back whenever I'm in the area, such a fabulous atmosphere

Excellent meal with friends. We'll definitely be back.

Never tire of this place. Food is amazing, staff excellent and surroundings stunning Calzone to die for as is the tiramassu

An excellent meal, wonderful service and a very relaxing atmosphere. Will be back soon.

Very great food staff very friendly

Fantastic food, warm and friendly atmosphere and amazing food. My family all had a wonderful time at Bar Aldo's!

Been to Bar Aldo's many times but tonight was such a special night and "Dino" and Unriquise (sorry for spelling) made it EXTra special. Thank you. Food amazing and special to accommodate food intolerance. Love you guys. X

Love this.ristorante.food.fantastic.

There is no way to explain just how great this place is. The Staff is beyond amazing and friendly and kept the whole night (or nights as we came here multiple times in just our one trip!) fun. They had the best recommendations and the food was some of the best any of the 8 of us have ever had. If we could get one of everything on the menu without needing to be rolled home we would. If you’re in the area, or even if your not, go out of your way and get to Bar Aldo’s!

First time at Bar Aldo's, very good indeed. Excellent food and service lovely wee restaurant. I'll definitely be back.

We had our table booked for 7.45p.m and got a bottle of wine and our starter quite quickly. We had ordered our main course at the same time as our starter. We sat and sat waiting and my husband asked about 9p.m. what was happening? We eventually got our main course about 9.15p.m. We didn't have time for a sweet as we had a taxi booked for 10p.m. Only a coffee. I know it was busy with bigger tables than two of us but it was like the old couple at the window were ignored. It's difficult to see four people at the next table who were ordering their drinks when we arrived to being brought the sweet menu when you hadn't had anything but your starter.

The food was okay, very much suited to the British palette. However it's understandable that it's difficult to get an authentic Italian in a small town. The aranchini was really good, unfortunately the pasta was not homemade but at least the pizza is cooked in a wood fired oven! The Tiramisu was delicious though and was devoured immediately. I would go here again if I am with picky eaters and am desperate for another Italian very close to where I live.

What an amazing restaurant! The food is impeccable, the staff are welcoming, helpful and friendly. They make every visit feel like a special occasion!

I would highly recommend this place I've never had a bad experience and the food is always amazing. I took my wife and kids there and the food was impeccable , even the takeaway options were amazing.

The food is delicious, the staff attentive and efficient, the ambience relaxed and friendly. We ordered a variety of main courses and desserts: all were delicious

Lovley dining area. Toilet a different story more like a cleaning cupboard but serves it purpose if you are bursting.

food was lovely but service wasn't to nice felt rushed us

What a great wee find in the Alloa side streets. Friendly staff and a great menu- real depth of flavour in the pasta sauces. Lovely variety. Will certainly be back.

What a wonderful fine. The staff is amazing and the food is wonderful. A very pleasant surprise. Make sure to make reservations you won’t be disappointed. Don’t forget the Lemoncello Flight. Plenty of parking across the street.

We booked a table for early evening, and already the restaurant was busy - a good sign.. The menu was extensive, with a lovely selection of authentic pasta dishes, especially fish. The food was lovely. The starters were massive, and the mains were all enjoyed by everyone. Lovely family meal.

Loved the food and service. Will definitely be back.

Zeer aangenaam restaurant, vriendelijke bediening, goed gegeten, leuke sfeer

All I can say is "molto bene". We attended on a Tuesday around 6.30pm and the restaurant was busy but not too noisy. The staff were chatty but not intrusive and the food/drink was delivered quickly. Every dish the three of received was well presented and we offered extras like Parmesan and pepper. The restaurant was clean and tidy plus I can vouch for the cleanliness of the gents toilet too. This was the first time my wife and I had been (our friend was a returnee) and both of us will be happy to book again. Thank you for a lovely meal folks.

Everything with our visit was amazing. The food was beautiful. Highly recommend eating here. The staff were so friendly also

Only ordered takeaway in the past and its been excellent. However when I called to check whether they were open today the person who answered immediately hung up. If you were busy or not open to takeaway you at least explain that, hanging up immediately is just extremely rude and a turn off for customers

Phoned for delivery. Usually never have any issues. Ordered 2 starters and 2 burgers, one with cheese. Man on the phone asked when we wanted it. I said as soon as possible and he said they had to cook it first. Obviously…. I then asked to pay by card (which 9/10 isn’t like me) & he asked why I couldn’t pay in cash and told me I had nearly an hour to go get cash… if I wanted to pay cash I would have said I’d pay cash. Bit rude. Told delivery would be around 40 mins. That was fine. After an hour waiting I called to ask to be told they were just waiting on the driver. Took 1hr 45 mins to come. Honestly usually never have any issues with this place at all. But last order and this time have really put us off ordering again. Had a mouldy burger bun last time but the girl was so great at fixing the issue I looked past it and thought to order tonight. Burger bun was burnt, chips undercooked. Every other time the foods always great, hot on arrival, the delivery is always quick, on time etc but it seems like standards are slipping.

Lovely staff, good service and delicious food.

Friendly service and delicious lasagna. Definitely one of the best restaurants we ate at during our time in Alloa!

Good food and service. Proper table cloth and napkin. Outside a bit downbeat.

The food was great and the service is excellent. What a fun place to visit

Travelled through from bishopbriggs just for something different probably the best Italian we've ate at food was mouthwatering will 100% be returning

First class food & great service

Such great service with proper, genuine smiles and character. Food very good and sensibly priced with good portion sizes and - thank goodness - a place with a decent amount of proper bread with the soup!

Great local Italian restaurant. Lovely Pizza , good Morretti beer.

Great food as always …… but a disappointing 90 min wait for our main course. It was a busy Friday night and we weren’t the only table to have this problem so some communication from the kitchen would have been welcome.

From an italian to italians: Amazing Restaurant , great attending and REAL ITALIAN ambient, food, people.. pizza.. A-MA-ZING! YOU MUST VISIT!

Great food , it had excellent flavor cooked into it, not just on it. Fabulous service from the whole staff . Friendly atmosphere, treated like family . What more can be said , besides highly recommended.

Best food I've ever had in my life. Came here from Canada and the waiter was very nice. I would highly recommend the Tagliatelle Lobster. I would pay any amount of money for that dish.

Comida italiana buenísima. Postres deliciosos. Ambiente y servicio encantador. Volveremos sin dudarlo.

Had a fantastic night at Bar Aldos, the staff were so friendly and welcoming. Food was lovely and we were not rushed, excellent all round.

From the moment we walked into the restaurant we received a warm welcome from very friendly staff. The food was first class as was the service and the whole atmosphere was very relaxed. Could highly recommend a visit.

We were recommended Aldo's by our B&B. We had a lovely meal and the parmigiana di Melanazane was delicious. I would like to put out a personal thanks to Sabrina (our waitress). I left my handbag in the restaurant and I rang the restaurant the...

I've been using this restaurant for 5 years or more, sometimes 3 or 4 times a month but after the way I've just been spoken to after waiting an hour and a half for am order that they forgot and then tried to blame me I will NEVER be back

Always a great meal and fun night

Came in late on Wednesday evening and weren't rushed, food was fantastic and waiter very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be returning. Thanks for a relaxing time when it had been a bit of a stressful evening before hand.

I have been a Bar Aldo customer for many years and enjoyed the food there. On my last Visit the food appeared not cooked from scratch, the Pollo Valdostano, was the same as Scallopine Milanese with tomato sauce and cheese plastered on top.I think the...

Great food, service and family atmosphere

Absolute mouth watering meal again tonight We’ve stopped taking starters as the portions are way more than we are able to eat . Staff are excellent and always cater for our every need 10/10 again bar Aldo’s 👍👍👍☘️

Stumbled upon this little gem. Best pasta I have ever eaten! Highly recommend! Atmosphere was lovely and relaxing Staff are some of the friendliest people I’ve met 10/10 all round

Only complaint is we waited 2 hours for the mains to come out. It was busy though. Starter mushrooms were fantastic. Chips were also particularly nice. Oh and best espresso martinis! Blonde female server was great.

Just love this place, so friendly. What a lovely night we had. First class.

Possibly the WORST dinning out I'v ever experienced! May I fisrt say this USED to be the "go to" place in Alloa. Our haven from the kids. Or sanctuary with friends. As of tonight, this is all gone. Tonight. The food was inedible. Microwave defrosted...

Great food all freshly prepared ,service was good too

Quite possibly the WORST dinning out I'v ever experienced! May I fisrt say this USED to be the "go to" place in Alloa. Our haven from the kids. Or sanctuary with friends. As of tonight, this is all gone. Tonight. The food was inedible. Cheap cuts, and very poor quality. And as for the service? Never before have I met such indiffernce from the old waiter to the boss Aldo. TERRIBLE! Arrived at a booked table to used cutlery and dirty table cloth and signage for a previous retirement party? When I asked for a cocktail menu (others were having) I was told "this is a restaurant, not a bar. We don't have a drinks menu"???? 50 min wait for starters (which were good to be fair) Another 45 mins for mains. £28 for fillet Stroganoff with near raw rice. Sent back with much to the discust of the owner. 30mins later once my fiance had finished her tiny piece of Sea Bass (the special) with burnt "Gateax of patato" (no veg - paid extra for it after served) Returned with now cooked watery rice but with same, now cold, stroganoff on the top. Just UTTER GARBAGE! When leaving, Julio (going there that long we know their names) complained about why I didnt eat it as it was new rice! Didn't wait for dessert/ coffee as usual and went to pay and was told, even before asking, by Aldo, the owner "We're no takin' nothin' off yer fuc**n bill" Paid £120 for quite possibly the WORST meal I've ever experienced. Never again. JUST AWFUL. Having come there with my family of all generations for years since they have opened, this is one customer that will never return.

Delicious meals first time there will be back reasonable prices lovely service

Waiters as always make the experience so worth it. Good banter and great service. Always love bar Aldo's for food. I always recommend to anyone.

Best pizza av had in years....deeeeeelious..Will be back for sure.

Had a great night . Excellent food as always

Very disappointing meal last night. The sauce on my Vesl dish was congealed, the potatoes were burnt to a crisp and the broccoli was overcooked!! Nothing on the menu for Vegans my friend had to make do with a vegetable pizza and she couldn’t have coffee as only had cows milk!! Also it should be pointed out that it’s Xmas and maybe a cracker or candle on the table might have cheered a very dreary evening up a bit. I used to frequent Aldo’s regularly but don’t think I would hurry back.

A really excellent lunch with perfect service. Lovely family owned restaurant. Easy parking too. Oh and excellent value at £11.95 for 2 course lunch. In this day and age! We will be back soon.

Fantastic quality and tasty Italian food served by friendly and attentive staff! The restaurant is very clean and classy! I highly recommend their pizza and lasagna!

Lovely lunch with friends, a good choice on the menu and staff very friendly

Really enjoyed having a meal as a woman alone here, felt cared for and enjoyed the meal a lot

I was visiting the area with some friends and so glad we went here. The food and the service was amazing and the ice cream was out of this world. Lots of locals in the restaurant which says everything. Would definitely return when I’m next...

Always a pleasure to visit here. Staff great and food excellent as usual

Best place in Alloa and the food is amazing.
