Visited La Campana last night and ordered the Zuppa de pesce and I was not disappointed! One of the best dishes I’ve ever had! An absolute must try for any seafood lover! All the other diners in our party had incredible meals also . Service and atmosphere were second to none. Would 100% recommend .

Awful! Worst meal we’ve had in a long time! 30min wait to get order taken, starters were okay, didn’t get our main course until an hour after arriving, steak, which was ordered as Medium, was raw inside, no chips available, rice with the filet stroganoff was inedible, it looked reheated, no Prosecco available, no mini bottles and so wouldn’t open a bottle to pour a glass for me, staff were arguing amongst themselves, & refusing to clear our plates! Wouldn’t stay for desert as I couldn’t bare to wait any longer! Would rather get ice cream somewhere else! No atmosphere AND it was Mother’s Day and lots of empty tables! It definitely wasn’t ‘full’ as it had said on Facebook page!

I visited on Christmas Day along with my family and had a very poor experience. Wait time on both food and drinks was far too long, almost four hours from start to finish. Twice we ordered drinks that never arrived, but these still appeared on the bill. The food itself was reasonable, although the Turkey offering was bland. Not enough staff for the amount of people in attendance. Won’t be back next Christmas.

This restaurant is a gem, but inexplicably quiet! The portions were massive, every dish delicious, prices reasonable and the waiter was attentive, friendly and kept us topped up and happy, right down to a free drink at the end! First time I’ve been since the restaurant moved and I was delighted that it still has great food, from a very traditional menu. Shame it was so quiet, businesses like this need supported. It’s a friendly place and simply the best food in Livingston.

Admittedly very delicious food, but completely screwed up the bill and argued with me about what the charges were on it. Charged me £14 for a fresh fruit juice!!!!!!! Completely needless argument to resolve and get this sorted. I will not be back.

Had a wonderful time here celebrating our Ruby Anniversary. Food was fantastic and the servers were so helpful and friendly. Everyone loved their meals especially the steaks which were perfectly cooked & smothered with a very generous amount of creamy sauce. Our only small criticism was they had run out of quite a few desserts by the end of the night. Apart from that a perfect evening thanks.

Hadn’t been here for a while so decided we would give it a try and we were certainly not disappointed. The menu is huge and we struggled to decide what to have. I had prawns and apple in a yoghurt dressing which was delicious, however a bit too big and I couldn’t manage to eat all of my veal mains (asked for it to be put in a doggy bag which the waiter happily did). My husband had a platter of meats and mozzarella as his starter which was also enormous. His sirloin steak mains was cooked as asked for and he said it was lovely.. The staff were very pleasant. A litre of house wine was extremely pleasant and inexpensive compared to many restaurants.Only issue was the mains I ordered should have had maraschino cherries and grapes in it. The waitress came to tell me that unfortunately the cherries had not come in with their restaurant order, but never told me there would be no grapes either.We will definitely be back, and soon hopefully, depending how the current COVID situation progresses.

Came here as part of the 'eat out to help out' scheme. The food was absolutely to die for. I had the chicken sofia loren, which is honestly the nicest chicken I have ever had. So much flavour, and the sauce was so creamy. Was delicious. There was just a couple of tiny things that stopped this being the perfect dining experience for me, unfortunately. Firstly, our table was located pretty close to the bar area and kitchen door. The staff would gather and talk in this area, meaning that we could quite clearly hear everything, discussing orders/tables, complaining about other staff etc. Also this place would be really pretty expensive if it weren't for our discounted meal. Like, not worth the amount they were charging for some items on the menu. I would also point out that this place doesn't have disabled access. This wasn't as issue for us, as such. But it might be important for some patrons to consider. Overall we had an absolutely delicious meal. No complaints about the food whatsoever. Would make it a regular if not for the expense :(

Am sitting here looking at a few of these reviews and cant quite believe we went to the same restaurant! Visited here for lunch on Wednesday lunchtime- 19/2. My friend and I were the only customers when we arrived, we were seated at a dirty table, crumbs and greasy smudge on the table cloth, the man that took our drink order couldn't quite grasp that my friend didnt like coke. As he wrote it down after she had already told him and his reply "well what do you want then!". We had £12.95 lunch menu - heard it was good and seen reviews, was disappointed with little choice on said menu - we both had garlic mushrooms and the ricotta and spinach tortellini. Disaster! Mushrooms were swimming in butter and the pasta was the stuff you find in the vacuum pack at tesco with a thick gloop poured over it! No presentation- not even a bit of bread to mop things up! The lady who took our dishes away didnt bother to find out why we hadn't cleared our plates or eaten the food, just asked" are you finished?". When we went to pay the bill, we asked for 2 separate Bill's and were told she had already rung it through the till and "we would have to sort it out ourselves!". I commented that we were disappointed with our lunch AFTER I had paid, so not looking for a free lunch, but pointing out we didnt enjoy the food, and the waitress let out a torrent of abuse on us! She said - and I quote - " what do you expect for £12.95?" Unbelievable! She even said that my friends face "was tripping her and she looked depressed!!!". This woman didnt know us from Adam, so could not possibly guess as to any personal problems my friend is going through, not everyone is happy and cheery all the time. My friend walked out and I told the woman she was very harsh and rude and she told us to get out and not come back!!! I was polite all the way through, never raised my voice to her but she was just awful to us!! I actually burst into tears when we got back into the car as I was so upset by the woman's attitude. I think this woman has serious issues with customer service!

We have been here many times over the years however hadn’t visited for a while. A ten minute walk from home and about half way between us and the in laws.Six of us were dining as the Mother in Law wanted to have the their pre Christmas 3 course fixed priced menu. The head waiter was reluctant to give us the pre Christmas and only reluctantly did so when we said we were leaving. With two kids in our party they wanted only a main course and maybe a desert afterwards from their main a la carte menu. We were told that we couldn’t order off both menus as it would muck up the bill????? I then said I was happy with two bills if it wasn’t too much bother for them. All it required was one more sigh and we were off.Ordered the drinks and the wine came fairly sharpish however we asked four times for the kids drinks which eventually arrived after the starters. Young waitress had difficulty understanding our requests as it seemed English wasn’t here first language.One of the main courses was not available and we were offered a substitute from the main menu....... Kids pasta was nice, steak eaters enjoyed theirs, however the spinach and ricotta pasta was boil in the bag which you can pick up from the supermarket for around £1.50. Not very good and some of the pasta was undercooked.Mains were served by a different waitress who was attentive and couldn’t do enough for us. Head Waiter’s attitude towards us also changed and he joked with the kids.All in all a surreal experience from being a nuisance at the start to be waved off as we left through the door (maybe delighted to see us go, lol).Doubt if we will be back in a hurry

First of all I'd say that the restaurant is actually much nicer than the pictures online. Good feel to the place and cosy. Downside is some of the tables are close together but that didn't bother me.Staff absolutely know what they are doing and the main waiter is assured and pretty funny.Food was good. Properly Italian and good ingredients. Big portion sizes and you'd certainly not leave hungry. The sweets were phenomenal. Little bit pricey but I'd suggest it's worth it and they know their value. Alcohol was possibly a little too expensive but may depend on what you drink.Starters were lovely but you could possibly share based on portion sizes. Mains were tasty and not overly seasoned or drowning in creams. Really pleased with quality. Somewhere I'd go again and happily recommend. Was fairly busy so I'd book in advance at weekends.

Similar to a recent reviewer, we also must have visited on the friendly staffs night off.!!When asked about the kind of red wine, the young waitress insisted it was " the house red" it took a few attempts to actually find the answer to our question.When asked for a bowl of sun dried tomatoes to go along with our starter,the more senior lady stated that " we dont do them here"!!For a party of 10 no wine list was offered, no attempt was made to find out if the food was ok, or indeed was everything ok.By the way, the food was ok, all 10 main meal plates were cleared.Sorry, in summary, we felt an inconvenience,to the waiting staff, and for that reason we will find another restaurant to cater for our next get together.Thank you as always for your service.Alistair..

We were seated quickly and out drinks were brought just as quick . We ordered and the starters were on our table within 20 minutes and very fresh and very tasty !

Lovely dinner at this this restaurant which we have been to on several occasions. I have added some comments at the end of the review that I would hope the owner would take on board.We had king prawns to start and I had the salmon with prawns both were very good. Also had a garlic pizza bread which was nice but a bit burnt and crispy on part.Main course we had the fillet steak with rocket and I had the lamb chops. Main course are served with sautéed potatoes or chips, but no veg. Again both were very good.I had dessert which was just greedy on my part, but this was poor. I had toffee apple pie. It had been in the micro wave too long and there only about two bits of apple.We had glass of Prosecco, which comes from two 200ml bottles, two glasses wine and one gin and tonic.Total price was £113, which we consider to be expensive and is higher than a lot of Edinburgh prices. Nice decor and not too big as as a restaurant above a local pub. Always in the main good food and good service. Frank the waiter (who is I think originally from Spain) is very good and also can be very funny.The restaurant is known for serving huge portions and that is confirmed in past reviews. We feel that the portions are just too big, hence the prices. Many starters are over £10 and would be a meal in themselves. The plates are huge and the restaurant must waste a lot of food, which customers have paid for.As a result this is a restaurant we go to once maybe twice per year, even though it is a few minutes from our house.If portions were reduced by a third or more and prices by say 20% I would go more often. For example my salmon and prawn cornets had three portions on a large plate. Three slices of smoked salmon rolled up with lots of prawns inside, plus salad. It was very nice served with side order of sauce and half a lemon. But one or maximum two portions would have been enough. The menu is huge which must make it hard to keep many types of food freash.Overall nice resultant great service, good food, just bit expensive.

Saturday night booking for 2 at 7:30. This is a proper restaurant, not a ‘get in and out as fast as you can place’ For Garlic king prawns with chilli for starter for me, it was superb, enough chilli to make your lips tingle, but not enough to spoil the prawns and garlic. My wife had salmon cornets, again they were delicious.

Whether we want a nice relaxed meal just the 2 of us or, like last night, to take the kids and other members of the family, La Campana is our go to restaurant. Love the food, such SUCH lovely staff who are fantastic with our kids and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Like a traditional Italian.

First visit here although don't live too far away. Excellent quality food. Hearty helpings. Friendly staff and owner seemed to know all his customers. Very cosy nice place to sit and chat with friends over your food. Was very warm as on top floor but they have fans and I took my hand fan and wore light clothes. It was one of the warmest days of the year but it didn't appear to phase the staff at all. Will return

Great Italian restaurant, a hidden gem in Livingston. We’ve been here for a number of family occasions and it never disappoints. Excellent food, friendly and helpful staff. Very accommodating when required, helping to arrange birthday surprises etc.

I think the last time I was there must have been 4 years ago. When I stepped in the other night with three people that had never been I was gambling that it was still as good.

I do like it here. Dry witted Spanish waiter. He makes the visit a unique experience. Pizza for me and carbonara for my colleague. We shared the home made walnut ice cream. Do try here.

2 couples....4 fantastic meals. Lovely little Italian with a varied menu....something to suit most people. Waiting staff attentive and friendly. The men folk chose starters which were both lovely...i.m so glad i went without as my main....a very generous portion of pollo Sophia Loren was divine. My partner had lamb which just fell of the bone. Very good wine choices. Our first visit here but it won.t be our last....highly recommend a visit here

This is a lovely restaurant to spend an evening in. The food is first class, I would rate it one of the best Italian Restaurants I have visited, even the wine is reasonably priced. The decor is tastefully done and adds to the lovely atmosphere to dine in, the toilets are very clean as well. Although it was our first visit we plan to make it a regular evening out. I would recommend it to anyone who likes good food taken in a lovely atmosphere. The staff are more than friendly, and service was excellent.

£25 for a fillet steak & lettuce.........but the chef didn’t like cooking medium to well done! Thought the waiter was only joking when we ordered, but he wasn’t. For that price I should get it cooked how I want it cooked.

We try and get to Lacampana once a month as the food is amazing. My partner loves the mixed meat ravioli with the garlic pizza bread. I always get something different each time.

Warm and welcoming atmosphere with attentive and pleasant staff. The restaurant is well set out to allow diners to have conversation without distraction from others. There is a good atmosphere and a lot of smiling faces around by both staff and customers.

Visited this restaurant recently and it was a delight, the decor was lovely and the food and service and choice of wines was first class. We shared a starter which was really delicious but our main courses were fantastic. I like the way their menu was set out as it gave a choice i if various pastas then sauces and then a huge choice of what ingredients you would like to add. I would only say and this is not a criticism, the portions are very large so be careful not to eat too much at the beginning or even ask for a smaller portion but we thoroughly enjoyed whole experience. Well worth a visit.

This restaurant is run by Giani. He is also the chef. My wife and I have been ding at his various restaurants since the late 90s. The fillet steaks with Giani's pepper sauce was something to die for. However, the steaks during our last three visit have not been up to that standard. The pepper sauce is still excellent. We now go less often.
