Bella Napoli in Glasgow City

I'm absolutely appalled by the fact they are using a machine to make you cappachino or flat white. Pressing a button that's that! Shocking!! Losing the Italian heritage straight away... I had to send my coffee's back 5times in 3 visits explaining coffee is cold or doesn't taste right. Why on God's earth wouldn't you use a member of staff to make coffee the traditional way?? This is supposed to be up market Italian restaurant... Why are they using machine to make coffee... Even l complain about my pizza saying its to thin.. Even for a thin pizza... The waiter said he'd ask the pizza guy to actually roll it out instead of "machine" yet again! I'm shocked that such a great place would even allow this kind of thing to go on. Please will you stop using machines and actually use staff to make coffee.. Science and skill behind everything. Customers like coffee done catered to their own needs and like... Dominic yiu are the owner and please keep things done the traditional way. Your losing respect by customers. This seems and lazy and uncaring way.. Customers like things done the normal way. Keeps the old ways! Robots are not in charge of the world yet! Keep things traditional please!!! 🙏🙏Your food is good.... Don't spoil your reputation!

I’m disappointed that my grandmother wasn’t allowed to make a booking on the telephone. She isn’t able to do internet due to poor eye sight. It was my grandfathers birthday and they wanted to surprise him on his big day. This company seem to have forgotten that our elderly are how we are all here today. We won’t be returning to this restaurant again.

We were looking forward to our visit but were very disappointed. Overcooked pasta at crazy expensive prices. Won't be back.

Amazing Italian - first time trying and highly recommend the spicy strawberry mojito! A must try if you are in the area..

Went here today for dinner. Could honestly be the best pasta and pizza I have had. I would say the first time I have had bolognese close to my nonnas. Will be back. All the servers were very attentive! I hope all tips given via the card machine are given to the staff. Keep up the good work!

We go here regularly, the food is fantastic &service is 10/10 the restaurant is beautiful & the staff are so friendly , lovely atmosphere too

On arrival, my husband and I and our friend were greeted by the scowling manageress who couldn’t see our booking and was sceptical that we had one….we showed her the confirmation email. The owner/manager bloke wasn’t very welcoming either. We felt as though they were irritated that had to deal with customers. After being told to ‘wait here’ eventually we were shown to our table. The waitresses were efficient but hardly interacted with us. Seemed disinterested. My ravioli was nice. My husband’s Puttanesca Milanese was weird. A perfectly round piece of chicken which exactly fitted the large plate….we reckon it was minced chicken flattened out, with some breadcrumbs on top….none underneath. Not a breast of chicken but minced. The sauce wasn’t very good. The ‘music’ was so loud and made it virtually impossible to hold a conversation without shouting. All in all - the ‘welcome’ was appalling, the servers efficient but seemingly just doing the job and no more, the food disappointing. We won’t be back.

Visited this restaurant with family . Very good dishes and a wide variety . drinks were good and service was very good would definitely recommend and be visiting again next time we visit Glasgow

Came here with my boyfriend for a late valentines dinner and was not disappointed, the food was amazing and all the staff were very friendly would definitely return. I had heard they done the best garlic bread but that's over rated it was okay but wouldn't order again but the rest of the food was 10/10

Went for a family meal as it looked very nice and someone recommended it. Food is ok nothing special, service is not to bad, prices are RIDICULOUS for what you get and location. £7 for a hand full of hand cut chips? Really! I dont mond paying for good food and service and there was none of that. The door was open the majority of the time so it was frezzing! The guy and woman that seem to run it, the guy was pleasant enough but the woman is shocking, if i worked there and she spoke to me like that when customers can clearly hear you should be ashamed of yourself. Wont be back unfortunately

Amazing service and amazing food, first time trying and will be back. We had our baby son with us and the staff helped us both in and out with the pram. Really can’t fault it

I’m so disappointed. Normally the food from Oro has been amazing and the pasta we ordered for takeaway has been. However we ordered chilli oil (1.95) and got given oil with some chilli flakes and paid £6.40 for the smallest cheesecake slice I’ve ever seen. Although an excellent takeaway normally, for £43.30 I’m absolutely gutted. Hope this is a one off.

The staff were exceptional. From the moment we arrived until we left, they were faultless. The food ordered was to very high standard. Our second visit and cannot wait to return. The ambience in this very busy restaurant w as outstanding. I felt as if I was in Italy. Congratulations to all staff. They made our night. Well Done 👍

After being let down by another restaurant last night we called Oro and were delighted when they could squeeze us in on a very busy Saturday night. Food and service were top notch as always. Should have gone there in the first place!

There’s really not a bad word to say. Delicious authentic Italian food, pleasant staff and a lovely interior. Will look forward to returning again.

The food was outstanding - especially the Arancini starter. We had a variety of pizzas and pastas (our visitor described hers as the best pasta dish she has ever had). The Nutella cheesecake is insane! We also had some lovely cocktails.

Writing this in disbelief but after reading some reviews below maybe it doesn’t come as a surprise what just happened to me and my family. Phoned around Glasgow for a restaurant this afternoon all fully booked but managed to get a table for 5 in...

Absolutely appalled at what I witnessed tonight!!! I was having dinner with my husband when the owner/manager approached a family, whom had just complained about their food which to be honest quite rightly so as the man’s fish was raw!!! The owner told the table...

Recommended by a friend as her favourite Italian & the closest to all the food she's had in Italy. I couldn't agree with her more!! The place is spotless, warm & welcoming and the gorgeous smells hit you as soon as you walk in! The...

This was the nicest meal we have had in a while. Exceptional portion sizes and very attentive staff. Cocktails were outstanding. We will be back :)

Terrible customer service. Manager has an awful attitude. We had been regular customers. We won't return. Don't expect them to be interested in serving you or dealing with requests. Food is average at best.

What a fabulous restaurant, great menu, great service and the most delicious pizza I’ve had in a long time. The Tiramisu was to die for. Sorry there aren’t any photos but I was loving it so much I forgot.

Been many times before and it has always been nice, went with the family to celebrate my son’s birthday.We had to wait an hour for our main courses to arrive.The waiter apologised and explained one of the chefs hadn’t turned up.When they did arrive, my...

Oro is absolutely fantastic, we dined on a Saturday evening. Great food, great ambiance and great service. No hesitation in recommending, you will not be disappointed. Looking forward to dining here again , soon!!

Just spoke to a horrifically unhelpful member of staff on the phone with a 'computer says no' attitude. Passive aggressive tone from the start of the conversation, repeatedly calling me 'madam'. Oro's website wasn't working when I tried to book for Christmas eve, so I...

First time at ORO. Went with a group of friends to celebrate one of their special birthdays. When we arrived the owner did not greet us warmly and put us to a side table. Once the table was ready we went down and ordered our...

Restaurant was recommended to us and because it’s near where we live we thought we’d try it out. We hadn’t booked a table on a busy Friday evening but luckily they were able to accommodate us. Despite having to vacate the table by 7 pm...

Booked this for my mum's 85th birthday and we were not disappointed! Staff were lovely. The restaurant is fancier than I expected and when we first went in, a waiter offered to take our coats. The choice on the menu was incredible but, initially, I...

Nice atmosphere to enjoy the freshly prepared, flavoursome extensive food they have to offer, staff are friendly and pleasant snd nothing is ever to much trouble. Always accommodating and food is absolutely lovely, so much so we are going back this evening.

The food was lovely but the portions are so small.Its very expensive as well £16 for a pasta.The staff are lovely and so attentive and a lovely atmosphere.I ordered a spicy chicken dish with penne pasta it was lovely but I still hungry after it.

First trip to Oro in a good while, popped in for a post nursery quick bite to eat. Place is busy and nice buzz and decor lovely, shame about the non existent welcome at front desk and greeting of you’ll need to be out in...

Visited for the first time on a Saturday night with another couple , the restaurant itself was really beautiful stunning decor and warm atmosphere me and my partner chose the Italian sausage pasta.and the other couple chose the chicken risotto,the description of the pasta on...

Yesterday my wife and I attended this restaurant as we received a birthday voucher from a friend. Staff were attentive and the interior was very welcoming and very nice! For starters we had the Mozzarella and Arrancini balls, very tasty! I opted for the Calzone...

We were in on Friday night. 28th July Food was delicious as always and service was great! Such a nice place to go. Highly recommend.

Food is amazing, staff are fantastic. I would say its slightly higher priced than other Italian restaurants but you don't mind paying the money when it's good quality. Only downfall which I'm really disappointed about is we tried to book a large table for a...

This is one of the best Italian restaurants I have been to hence why I keep returning fantastic food

We dined last week as a family of 4. It was a quiet lunchtime in the restaurant. We were welcomed into our seats that I have to say we’re not very clean with crumbs on them & a sticky table. Anyway the food was good...

Food was absolutely amazing! Cannot fault any part of the meal. All staff were very attentive and courteous. A family birthday with very young children and we were very well looked after. Thank you, and can't wait to go back! Crispy prawn starter - OMG!!

Food was great, everything we ordered tasted fantastic however service was a bit slow and no one came over to check if we wanted anything like the bill or desserts after the meal and we had to try and attract the attention of someone, maybe...

Been here a few times over the years, and watched it become more and more popular. Food is very good, prices have skyrocketed recently but most things have. Makes it more of a special occasion place than a regular weekend meal. Last visit did put...

As we were down in the Central Belt on family business, we went out with our son and daughter-in-law for an evening meal. This was my first visit to this restaurant and I would have no hesitation in going back The food and service were...

Pizza prices are very high. The standard of food and service was excellent. Nice decor and atmosphere.

The food was excellent and the service was excellent too. The restaurant was beautiful inside and the seating was comfortable. There was a wide choice of Italian food. I chose one of the pizzas. It was cooked to perfection and was delicious. The dessert was...

This place has obviously been here for years but this was our first visit after being recommended by a friend and we weren't disappointed. It's got a buzzy atmosphere and the staff were great - especially then waiter who showed me how the really cool...

Got to be the best Italian restaurant we have ate in that’s why we keep going back Service top notch so attentive food out of this world

Refused to take a table booking over the phone - hung up twice - refused to give me his name, told to use the website - my internet browser told me isn’t not a safe site to use yet you ask me for bank details...

We visited Oro to catch up with friends and we were not disappointed. The restaurant itself is very nice and had a lovely atmosphere. The food was fantastic and everyone enjoyed what they had. We will definitely visit again. We were that keen to get...

There's no point in waxing lyrical about all the facets at which this restaurant excels in as all I need say is, you just need to go and experience it. everything you can think of with regards to rating e.g: staff, food, decor etc. All...

Felice anniversario! We come here often. So do our kids. And our friends. That’s not incidental! We’ve brought them here and they come back. Often. From as far away as Motherwell! How many Italian restaurants do you need to pass to get here from there?🤔...

This was such a lovely find. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, impeccable service. The food was so good. One of us is coeliac, so finding a safe gluten free place meant a lot, especially understanding cross contamination. Wonderful places and we will be...

Been to the restaurant many times before and once again was not disappointed. The food was of course amazing but what really made our visit was the outstanding service provided by Leyla! She was helpful, bubbly and genuine! Many nice restaurants can be let down...

My partner and I came on an Thursday night for an impromptu dinner, we have eaten in Oro before and have always loved it but I felt compelled to write a review after this experience. the ambience was so great, although really busy, it felt...

£15 for an average pizza! It’s cheaper in Venice on the Grand Canal. Good atmosphere in Oro but rip off prices. £18 for spaghetti with prawns! No way….

Service is fantastic Food is fantastic, Especially the donuts! I loved my evening at this restaurant. It's very authentic italian food with great service. If you're in Glasgow then eat here, you will not be disappointed.

Ok been a while since I reviewed any restaurant and honestly soooo disappointed with this place Looks lovely on outside 4/5 Interior 4/5 Cleanliness 5/5 including toilets Food always subjective but would say 3/5 Service 2/5 only reason not 1/5 is because they actually served...

My husband and I visit Oro regularly the Food is first class but the portion size is half the size it used to be for the same money. We had 2 linguine with 4 king prawns a bottle of wine a pint of morreti and...

Unable to go with full family as daughter came down with Covid and this was her choice. Managed to get street parking outside - suspect would have found a place for the car fairly quickly. Was busy on a Monday evening so this would seem...

Poor response from the owner when complaining about staff and service when requesting drinks. Watered down - Without writing too much detail we have never experienced this level of poor service before when visiting. Very embarrassing situation for the owner who didn’t even have the...

Gluten free Pizza was tip top ! Service great and reminded me of Italy....... Not too expensive and just what we needed !

Went to ORO tonight for the first time for my wife,s birthday dinner was very happy with the speedy service and attention we had from all the staff who were all pleasant and professional the food was amazing so overall very happy to recommend this...

Oro on Kilmarnock Rd was fabulous.Fresh, tasty food and great value.Staff were very friendly and attentive- a special mention for Alfredo. Will definitely be back-a must visit if you are in the South side.

We were stuck for somewhere to eat while in Glasgow to sightsee. Google sent us on a wild goose chase but ultimately we landed up at Oro. Both the service and food were excellent. Superb menu selection, efficient and top notch service. We were two...

Yet again another scrumptious meal at ORO. Staff very attentive and noticed my walking disability and discreetly came over to advise if I was to revisit I could enter via back car park to avoid their stairs, which was extremely nice of them. The food...

Wow. The food was so fresh. Absolutely amazing. There is something for everybody and the quality is amazing as well as the cocktails as well. My full family loved it! Also, we had donuts for dessert! Warm and amazing perfect to share! The staff were...

From first walking through the doors right through to walking back out our experience was fantastic. The decor, the ambiance, the food, the presentation, the service was all to such a high standard. This is the first time we have been out as a family...

From start to finish everything was excellent. Started with a call this afternoon advising as we had two guests with mobility issues we could use the downstairs entrance. How kind was that? It was a family birthday meal. The food was delicious and service 1st...

This was our first time dining at ORO and we were all very impressed. All staff members were extremely professional and made the night an incredibly enjoyable and memorable one. The food was superb, great choice of wine and the service was fantastic. We will...

First time visiting this restaurant. Was very impressed with the decor. Food was amazing , Staff very sufficient and friendly. Would 100% highly recommend .this restaurant and will certainly be returning

We visited on a Tuesday evening, the place was relatively quiet and we were seated upstairs. The restaurant was a bit cold probably from being close to the door. The waitress we had was very switched on and attentive. The starters and mains were spot...

Bad customer service . Booked a table for sister’s wedding for 6 adults specifying we would bring my 4 year old nephew who’d sit with my other sister . Booking was confirmed . But on the day of the birthday they called and said table...

The decor in the restaurant is amazing and really sets a great atmosphere. The food is top notch, with servive equally as excellrnt. Only negative would be the waiting times...our starters arrived before our drinks, and our desserts seemed to have been forgotton about. Overall...

Hadn't been here before. Walked in and was immediately impressed by the atmosphere and decor. Ordered from the "vegetarian starters" menu. When it came, it was covered in parmesan, which the waiter admitted was coated in "pork fat". When I asked for the Arancini without...

Love going here. The set up, staff, food, it’s all good. They never seem to sit still always improving the place and menu. Gutted to see no burger on the menu but also loved the pizza that I tried and the coffee is brilliant. The...

Absolutely outstanding. The food is on another level. The restaurant was packed on a busy Saturday night yet the service was absolutely impeccable. I will absolutely be back. Think this maybe my new favourite restaurant

Outstanding service from start to finish. Food was absolutely delicious! We were celebrating my brother completing his cabin crew training and the waiter was lovely- wishing him many congratulations. We brought helium balloons and asked if it would be ok to put them on the...

Great service, authentic Italian cuisine, delicious Sauvignon blanc and seat to enjoy people watching on Kilmarnock road. The bruschetta - tomato and onion - is the best you can get; carbonara No. 2 was inspiring. Dining companions thoroughly enjoyed chicken risotto and spicy sausage mezze....

Having been here a few times and always a hit thought I’d leave a wee review. Food is gorgeous! Wide range on the menu- the normal Italian dishes but with extra deliciousness. The pizza is out of this world and the calamari was perfectly cooked!...

On the 23rd of december,at 2046 hours i received a call from a mobile number.I had been in hospital,just got out and answered to an angry man,who calls himself the manager by the way (disgusting) .He starts shouting this is oro,why have you not been...

We recently visited oro for a family meal all seemed well to start until our 2 year old got upset due to him being in hospital that day having scans and blood tests done for a health issue so as can imagine he was a...

Went for a birthday dinner with my partner on a Sunday evening. We were sat near the bar and couldn’t fault it at all. Service was superb, food was fantastic. Would highly recommend.

Lovely food, pizzas were amazing! The service was brilliant, from the young guys who brought our food to the servers, very professional and couldn’t do enough for us. Can’t wait to come back

The food was just ok. Nothing amazing. Staff very friendly but overall nothing wowed. Overpriced for what we got also. First time I have ever had a salad caprese with no basil! Not helped by the fact the tomatoes were like the unripened cheap ones...

I frequent Oro regularly with my partner & family & can honestly say it cannot be beaten. Warm welcome from the owners every visit, excellent drink selection & the food is second to none. The service is consistently wonderful, attentive without being intrusive. Special mention...

I haven't visited recently but always meant to leave a review. The food here is simply outstanding, the best carbonara in Glasgow, best pizzas. Even the takeaway service is so good. Has been this good for years, never changes.

Excellent food! My favorite Italian restaurant by far! I had the Napoli pizza which was delicious and the skillet cookie for dessert. 10/10

The food was absolutely amazing, probably one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever tried which was the mushroom tagliatelle, I am gluten free and this was no problem. The service was 10/10 from all those who helped cater, they are very attentive when it...

Me and my partner had booked a table about a month in advance for our anniversary meal. When we got to the restaurant we were quickly seated, however we were very disappointed with the seating arrangement. A make shift table had been quickly set up...

I came here on Sunday with a friend for the first time - pasta wine and atmosphere 10/10 can’t wait to come back. A fantastic family run establishment.

First of all, my nephew found a hair in his pizza. Although not great we understand these things can happen and our waitress couldn’t have been any nicer which was much appreciated. She removed the pizza from the table before asking if he would like...

Rushed in rushed out, I’ve spent more time in a McDonalds. This might sound strange but food arrived too quickly for my liking obviously not fresh prepared and tabled cleared quicker than an Ali bongo magic trick. Defo won’t be back. Oh and special mention...

Visited the restaurant tonight for the first time, herd good reviews so decided to try for myself. Absolutely outraged to have found not one but two hairs in two different meals. After the second hair that was found the waitress (who did her best through...

One of the best pizzas I've had! Me and my partner ordered two pizzas from the 'choose your own toppings' section. They were so good! The base, the sauce and the toppings were just delicious. I was stuffed after the pizza and we'd only stopped...

They have 2 versions of spaghetti carbonara no1 and no2 which is described as the Italian favorite. Don't think anyone from the corolla family who run this place have ever been to Rome to eat this dish. and at 12.95 for a pasta the must...

Came for our 2nd anniversary tonight and were absolutely blown away by the food, the service and the music! Our food was unbelievablely good, we went for the Aroma pizza and chicken Alfredo penne, arancini for starter and finished with donughts. I cannot stress how...

Glad to say everyone was wearing a mask on our arrival . Good to see people respect others rather than the selfish behaviour displayed by some guests. If requested to wear a mask just do it or stay at home its quite simple. We had...

Visited Oro last night with my partner after going a few times with my family before lockdown. We drove 30 minutes from home to this restaurant. We were met at the door by the front of house who immediately asked where our masks were. My...

I turned up and I am exempt from wearing a mask. I was asked where it was and why I wasn’t wearing it I was then asked to prove I was except, prove I had a Disibility, which was humiliating to say the least. I was then told I was being refused unless I put one on to get to the table. I have sensory issues and have a neurological condition so I am exempt! If I came in sitting in a wheelchair or if I had a clear Disibility that showed my brain didn’t work properly would they have asked then? I was furious, embarrassed and humiliated. If I say I’m exempt none is allowed to challenge me on it and that’s exactly what they done. Take note oro l, have a look at my photos.

First for the food, the food is very good although £15 for a Pizza in Shawlands is a bit OTT. The service was good and staff friendly. Unfortunately we were sat through the back with a view to the back courtyard which is where the...

It was alright. We ordered a pasta/pizza combo to takeaway, and it was quite expensive for what you get - and unfortunately very bland. It's a shame, the staff were excellent and the interior of this place is truly stunning. I've heard good things about...

Excelent food and service !!!! Friendly staff. We will recommend to our friends.We will come back soon, for sure !!
