O Sole Mio in Glasgow City

We are here during a multi-generational family get-together in Glasgow. Excellent food, and attentive staff. The atmosphere was a little quiet, but well worth a visit

great service,, very attentive people working at this establishment!

Just found on a walk in . What a little gem. Fresh food simple menu but was very good.

What can I say about this lovely little piece of Italy right in the heart of Glasgow … except the staff are fantastic the food is amazing and the value for money fabulous. We are here on the 4th of April 2024 and we’re looked after by Raine and Andrew the service was superb and the food also, would we go back? Yes in a heartbeat we really can’t recommend this restaurant enough. 5 stars all the way.

So disappointing, minestrone was like tomato purée with a couple of veg thrown in, lasagne was boiling hot outside but not warm enough in the middle, so dry. Was pretheatre menu.

V busy, but seaed ok. Pre theatre menu. Food and service were excellent

Love this place. The owner is usually around and always finds time to chat. Lovely staff and delicious food.

Attentive servers, food very good and the Italian Sav Blanc really enjoyable. Initially, some of the music was questionable however it soon became Italian mix.👍🏽

Had lunch today and it is the best meal out I have had in a while. The bruschetta was lovely, hot toasted bread and lots of tomatoes and red onion. My main course of chicken in sauce was absolutely delicious and my daughter's pasta dish was equally as good. Such good value for lunch and great service too. This was my mum's favourite restaurant so we have been going for many years and never disappointed.

Probably my favourite restaurant in Glasgow. I have been frequently the past few months and It's always a nice time there. The food is very delicious, well priced and they have a very good selection, the lunch menu too also has a good selection and you get very good portions for a good price. The staff are very welcoming, the restaurant itself has very nice, cosy atmosphere to it. Will definitely be going again when I'm out for lunch in Glasgow.

Nice small authentic Italian, decent food. Pleasant service, happily recommend.

We were here for dinner on 30/01/2024. Fabulous food in a lovely restaurant and the staff were polite and helpful. I have unusual allergies but, there were no problems and I wasn't made to feel like I was a nuisance. Definitely highly recommend this restaurant

Lovely restaurant. We love Italian food and food was excellent. I had veal that melted in your mouth. Two waiter lady and a man were excellent, can't fault them. Def be back. Always nice when the owner is there welcome you.

Great food, lovely atmosphere, warm welcome!

delicious food, wonderful time 😊

Went to this restaurant yesterday around 3pm for a late lunch having heard good things about it from friends and family. We were welcomed into the restaurant by a member of staff and told to select our own table which I thought was interesting start. We were then asked to order our drinks as the menus were placed down, which felt rushed and then left for about five minutes to look over menu, ordered our food and proceeded to wait about twenty minutes for our starters (bruschetta with parmaham) to be brought out which then had to be sent back as they were missing the parmaham, the second time they were brought out it was only bread with a single slice of ham and three small sundried tomatoes, which is not what would be expected, however we were very hungry after our wait so ate them regardless, (we were not approached to ask if it was more suitable anyway). Our mains came out and were slightly better in taste and expectation (margherita pizza and penne arrabiata). The overall service was below what would be expected considering there were three tables in restaurant (7,2,2) including myself and my date, with two servers and a manager in terms of front of house staff. Overall we left feeling disappointed and underwhelmed from the experience. As someone who has experience working in hospitality it was unfortunate to see how little the staff and management engaged with the guests, numerous times other guests had to approach the bar area in order to gain the attention of staff to ask for various items or queries.

Lovely family restaurant for a Pre-theatre meal

Excellent service, good food and great value 👌. Looking forward to next visit...⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Staff so friendly and food excellent

Booked a table before a show and waited so long to be served we couldn’t have a starter - excuse given was they were too busy - so why take my booking - so disappointed! The pizza looked like it was a frozen base not homemade ! We ordered a mixed salad at £5.50 it had lettuce tomato and red onion with no oil or dressing. Have been many times before but won’t rush back

Table for 3 Excellent Food Adequate Helpings Staff pleasant and Knowledgeable Cosy Atmosphere Reasonably Priced Would recommend Not far from Queen Street Station

Had lovely meal great atmosphere friendly staff

Bread was stale - 2 olives each seems rather mean for the price - veal Milanese was ok but breadcrumb coating was a bit thick and it was not seasoned- my wife had seafood linguine it was awful basically cooked linguine with some shellfish on top no sauce no seasoning- calamari had the consistency of a rubber ring - manager was apologetic and did not charge us for the stale bread and .two coffees- perhaps because it was a quiet Wednesday night it was not the normal chef

Been going here for years and the owner is such a nice friendly man who always greets us with a smile and chats. Food was amazing and warm atmosphere

I used to come here often, but this time on arrival no one came up to me even though 2 employees clearly saw me waiting for a table. They just proceeded to have a chit chat in the bar and laugh even though they could clearly see me waiting at the entrance. Really bad experience and don't think I'll be coming back.

A fantastic meal with good friends

That was the most nicest place we’ve been lovely lovely waitress honestly I believe her name is aurora I believe honeslty give her a raise!!!! She was great lovely women I cannot even tell you enough amazing at her job just a bubbly person we had an amazing time but please give her a raise !

Fantastic food for a very reasonable price, lovely staff and a great atmosphere. A perfect dining experience from start to finish.

Six of us had an absolutely lovely meal here. The food was delicious and authentic and the staff were exceptional. Next time we are in Glasgow we will be visiting again. Thanks again. The buckie gang

Great food. Friendly and fast service. Nice decor.

Really good food and reasonably priced

I absolutely love this restaurant. The staff are amazing, it's a true pleasure to eat here. The food is always out of this world and every time I am in Glasgow I make sure to have a meal here.

First time in this established Italian. Food was lovely, and reasonably priced for a 2 course lunch.

This was the second we had eaten here. This time we booked a table and were very happy they had given us one at the window. The food (both had pasta) was excellent and the front of house staff very friendly and helpful. Would thoroughly recommend.

6 of us here tonight and everyone gave 10 out of 10. The staff were amazing. We're all looking forward to coming back soon.

Ok, I like Italian food, I am picky about what I eat and can be very critical, but I found nothing wrong and everything right about O Solo Mio . The service and attention from the waitstaff and the owner were much appreciated. The lunch special I had (a small pizza and a bucket of mussels in an awesome cream sauce) was a bargain ! And my wife's bruschetta was as fresh and tasty as could be. I enjoyed talking to the owner, he is devoted to his restaurant and his customers. When I complimented him about how clean his restrooms were he told me he cleaned them himself to make sure they were perfect ! That never happens, that job usually goes to the lowest paid, least service person on the staff. Next time we are in Glasgow we will be back. Graci

Found this place by accident. I like the atmosphere there, interior design. Also very nice staff. The food, I must say, I didn't expect that I would like the soup since combining mushrooms with fish is not something I would do or like, but it appears to be lovely. The pollo marsala - also good.

I stumbled upon this place while looking for somewhere that wasn't a chain restaurant. In short, this was some of the best Italian food I have had outside Italy. Excellent service, flavours, atmosphere. I hope to come back soon!

Popped in for lunch. First time in this established Glasgow Italian. It was a Monday and quite quiet. Opted for their 2 course and took their take on minestrone soup and the fudh dish of the day. The soup was really tasty and I was pleased to have chosen this as a starter. The fish was haddock with capers and potatoes but was a bit too bland for my taste. Decent portion though. Service was excellent and my wife loved her pasta starter and chicken main. Happy to try again if in Glasgow.

Nice little restaurant, relaxed yet efficient service and good food, exactly what you need for a good meal out.

Very nice self-made food, very good service, acceptable prices

What a surprise! We stopped in for a drink (they even made me a limoncello spritz), and ended up staying for dinner. And it was very good! From the hostess with the mostest to our waiter, Jeffrey, we had a wonderful time. We started with Arancini and it was very nice. One of our group wanted a special entree, just shrimp in the seafood linguini, and she was accommodated and treated to a wonderful dish. Two of us had Saltimbocca, and it was good, but not great. Salads were good, wine offerings are great! Really I would totally recommend this place to anyone looking for Italian food in the neighborhood.

siamo capitati per caso ed è stata una fortuna. Abbiamo mangiato lasagne di magro, pasta alla carbonara SENZA panna! Solo il puré era un po' insipido. il servizio rapido e professionale, la spesa nella media

First time eating here for lunch and we thought the price and choice on the menu was absolutely fantastic. We had Two courses each, one pint of beer and a really decent bottle of wine all for £60. Can't wait to go back next time I'm in Town.

Booked pre theatre dinner at O Sole Mio, which I’m sad to say did was not up to their previous standard. It would appear the kitchen staff lack imagination when it comes to presentation as the garnish on my starter consisted of three limp chard leaves, accompanied by two SMALL pieces of bread. The pizza, which was presented on this occasion really did require the steak knife,as the pizza base was brick hard and a dental challenge ! The portion sizes of other main courses were small and could have been placed between two slice of bread. The standards at this establishment really have declined and although the location is handy for the theatre, I’ll be looking elsewhere for pre theatre dinner, as O Solo Mio no longer represents good value !

This is the 4th visit. So know the place . Friendly staff and great food 😋 . Not over expensive and very reasonable. We will be back.

Lovely restaurant, it had a really nice atmosphere and the staff were helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend

Food is legitimately the worst I have ever tasted. Pizza was inedible as it was burnt black, lasagna was like baby food - clearly reheated and had a weird mushy texture and the chicken and potatoes was served with lettuce and some Luke warm watery sauce that was bland? The plate edges had food all over it when sat down. How can they even serve this…is there no pride? I see the owner likes to make rude replies to paying customers that are unhappy, but save it - put the effort into making a decent meal. Won’t be back.

Great get together with friends. Lovely staff and great food very tasty 😋

2nd time here, and it was disappointing,food took a while and wasn't that good atmosphere was terrible, wouldn't return

Great food and a very friendly service! Every question regarding allergies was met with a helpful response. The best gluten-free pizza I've ever had: crispy crust and a light dough, tasted just like a normal pizza would taste. Definitely would go again!

Garlic bread had to be redone with actual garlic. First time it was just buttered toast. Pizza needs more toppings usually proper Italian pizza has more toppings.

First time trying this restaurant out and very pleased. I had the lobster ravioli and the pollo marsala. Will be back,

Buenas pizzas, buen trato. Local bonito y agradable. Bien situado

Lovely little Italian restaurant! Food was amazing and staff were very attentive and polite. Cocktails were good too. Would recommend the black ink spaghetti with the scallops, absolutely delicious! Will definitely be back here next time I visit Glasgow!

My friend and I had a lovely time here yesterday. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly and very helpful. Nothing was too much bother for them. They didn't rush us out even though we had finished eating and were only drinking tap water. Music was soft and relaxing and very unobtrusive. Many thanks to all the staff for making our visit so nice.

Lovely pre theatre menu good selection and quality. Nice small restaurant and staff were welcoming the mussels were delious. Wine selection by glass or bottle

We ordered two (same) spicy Italian pizzas without mushrooms, but with some red onions and a bit garlic, added with some black olives. But we got one default with mushrooms, but without special ordered toppings. And one with red onions and unbaked/raw pieces of garlic and without mushrooms. But both without black olives. But finally the mozzarella-garlic bread was very good! Next time we wanna try the lasagne. And the waitress apologized and it was okay. In sum: Pizza is not their thing, but the garlic bread is nice.

My daughter and I visited today and the food, service, staff, wine and ambience were fab. Reasonable prices too. Would definitely recommend.

A wee late lunch yesterday in this fantastic restaurant. Food, service and atmosphere was amazing! Thank you Djamel

Probably the worst carbonara we have ever tried, and the chef came out and asked what was wrong and if it needed more salt.

Fantastic meal last night before we went to see Shalamar, staff so friendly and welcoming. First time there. Defo be back …was a night to remember lol

First family meal out in a little while. Food was subpar at best- mum’s arancini was bland and her main was very poor, resulting in her not being able to eat it. Chips are obviously very cheap oven quality. The other meals were edible but not anything special. The older lady was lovely but the younger girl with the blonde hair was very impatient and slow taking the order. Wasn’t very welcoming or smiley.

Had lunch here today and it was really delicious. Great value at £14.95 for two courses. Good choice and ample portions on the lunch menu. Nicest meal out I have had recently and no pressure to give up the table as is the case in many Glasgow restaurants these days. Definitely worth a visit.

Phenomenal. We made an online booking that flew under the radar but the owner fit us in regardless. The food was amazing, the service incredible, and the perfect portion sizes ahead of going to see the orchestra.

Very friendly staff. Tasty food that gave a really Italian feeling. As a pasta lover I enjoyed the food so much!

Een heerlijke plaats om even heerlijk te eten. O Sole Mio bestond uit een prachtig team dat ons goed kwam vragen achter onze wensen. De gerechten waren heerlijk. Het voorgerecht was redelijk zwaar (pizza-bread). Maar het hoofdgerecht werd ook iets later gebracht. Dus er werd wel een beetje rekening gehouden hiermee. De pasta's zijn geweldig lekker. Mooi op smaak gebracht. Heel vers ook! En ook de desserten waren af. Super lekker gegeten voor een schappelijke prijs.

The restaurant was very busy on a Saturday night so best to book a table ,The service was a bit slow ,The staff were pleasant The pizzas were delicious .I Would go back

Absolutely amazing, the prices are amazing considering the quality, the service, the atmosphere. It’s everything you could ever want from Glasgow, homely, friendly, kid friendly with lovely staff with amazing food! Making an effort to every week now. Thank you!

Haven’t visited here for a while. Very disappointed with the service, wrong food brought out, which meant we didn’t eat together, portions were a bit small. Think they are trading on the historical name of what was once a fabulous Italian restaurant. Won’t be back.

Serveur très professionnel, repas très bon également 👍

The Mrs and I had a great night lnight the food and staff were top notch 👌

Lovely Italian meal here last weekend.

Fantastic food and fantastic price

This pizza is not worth money... and very not friendly personel For me one star

Cant wait to come back, beautiful food and surroundings! Couldn't have been any better service too! Thanks again, see you next time!

Late afternoon meet up for a family meal. We were very well looked after. Veal stew was delicious and a bargain on the set menu.

A lovely time, this was our after-party when we won the trophy at Basketball -go Gladiators! The food was lovely.

Wouldn’t feed this to the homeless.. when I walked in was dealt with rude staff and once ordered food took ages. The lasagne I ordered was rock solid in the middle probably reheated junk and tasted like it had been lying for a few years atleast. Pizza was mid but defo wouldn’t recommend. Place has lost its good food don’t know if there was been new ownership or new chefs but I have visited in the past but would not go back after this experience. The place is outdated leave with your dignity and shut down please.

Lovely as always. Great food and staff.

Small place but nice and just what we needed.

We found this restaurant by accident today and we're so glad we did. Went in today for an impromptu Mother's Day lunch and were accommodated at no notice. For starters, my husband had the minestrone soup and I had the stuffee mushrooms, for mains he had pepperoni pizza and I had the pollo Milano (I think that's right). My oldest child had a pizza and my 2 year old had Bolognese. The staff were so friendly and accommodating and the food was simply incredible. Beautifully fresh ingredients, the depth of flavour was unparalleled. We will certainly be back for an adults only date night minus the kids so we can have some vino with our meal 😉. All in our bill came to £78, which was a fair price, given the quality of the food and the experience provided to the diners. If you're questioning whether or not you should visit, stop questioning and do it. I promise you won't be disappointed.

The food was really good and the staff where all lovely but the place was freezing. Actually had to use my scarf as a wee blanket for my daughter.

Delicious food. Small friendly restaurant. Good value for money.

Absolutely delicious meal. Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Next time in Glasgow I will be visiting this great restaurant.

Lively atmosphere obviously many folk enjoying a night out. Returning to Glasgow after many years away I wanted Italian food but not a standard pizzaria, Disappointed. the antipasto I do better at home , unimaginative . 3meats 3cheese 4 olives. The bread was dry . Saltimbocca overdone dry salty and strangely “fishy” flavour. Not what I remember of Glasgow /Italy

Wonderful service and excellent food

Lovely place we had our first date 26 years ago in the former original restaurant. The owner was very attentive and staff excellent a nice atmosphere and good food. A wee Glasgow gem.

Was in this restaurant last night and what an experience staff are really friendly owner made us more than welcome and food was top notch will certainly be back very soon thanks again sole mio team for making the birthday celebration special

Amazing restraunt, food is absolutely excellent, would definitely recommend!

Fabulous food. Outstanding service from Minka, Gillian and the "boss" Djamel. Incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Lovely wine, crackin grub. We will definitely be back. BEST ITALIAN IN GLASGOW 100% Hutch.

Enjoyable lunch. However, we were left waiting for at least 10 minutes upon arrival and had to ask a server to take our order, which is not ideal during the working day.

Lovely meal before going to see a show in the concert hall. Food was delicious. Great staff, nice relaxed atmosphere, looking forward to the next time.

We had a great experience at O Sole Mio. Didn't eat from the pre theatre menu. Didn't have a starter but our main meals were superb (spag bol) Very good portion. We asked for a side of bread without butter or garlic and they gave us it. The bread was delicious. The dessert was great too. Home made tiramisu and profiteroles . £50 for two mains with a side and two desserts and drinks. Great price. Found the staff attentive and polite. It was very busy but the staff seemed to cope well. Loved the atmosphere and loved that the music was just at a background level and you could have an intimate conversation. Will definitely return and would highly recommend.

Went here for dinner before the theatre and the food was excellent. We all had different dishes altogether and every single one was amazing staff fantastic service fantastic hope to return shortly… well done

The best steak I have in a long time. Seafood spot on. Staff put there selves out on a concert night. Playing Kate Rusby in the restaurant. First time I have heard folk music in an Italian

After 8 yrs still bad! 8yrs ago or smth I went to this restaurant and it was horrible, so never been there ever after until today. Once again I regretted it. Bruschetta: the bread it was super dry, and there were more onions than tomatoes,...

My second review for my wife’s favourite restaurant for meeting her friends in Glasgow for their regular catch-ups. I was “allowed” 😉 to visit, as we were just round the corner at the Pavilion Theatre for their excellent Pantomine. Thankfully we had booked as the...

Wonderful Christmas experience - great food paired with incredible service and atmosphere. A must try for anyone who loves genuine Italian cuisine.

Great service and food was excellent . We hadn’t booked but they found us a table for 5 people. Would recommend for a really good plate of pasta .
