The best restaurants serving Italian food in Scotland

Brilliant time… the food was amazing as always! Only to be outdone by the unforgettable welcome and service provided by Lello and his team! We have just found our new go to family restaurant for years to come 🥰👏🏽

We've been here many times and always received a friendly welcome. It was recommended to us by neighbours who themselves have been going here for around years. The hand cut triple cooked chips are amazing, as are the properly thin and authentic pizzas, and my husband loved his spag bol the last time we were there. Even if we just fancy a takeway pizza, this is our first choice. Good value too!

Great lunch, customer service was excellent.

This is a really great little cafe, people are friendly and helpful but most of all it has great food and coffee with a genuine continental atmosphere . Love it

Restaurant was pretty full, but still managed to squeeze us in, amazing food and service, definitely will be back soon!

What a wonderful venue, warm and cozy, excellent decor. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, the food was first class, plenty of it and was hot. I would say that the venue is very reasonably priced. If I’m ever back in that area, I’ll book a table in advance and return to this wonderful Bistro. Thank you.

Amazing pizza with friendly fast service. Just grabbed some take out slices to go, really friendly staff and have been dreaming of that pizza ever since. Need to go back to try more!

Cannot fault the pizza - it’s delicious! Nice staff and a good service. Loses a few stars as it’s not dependable. Don’t get yourself excited for a pizza takeaway in Crieff as good chance it’ll be closed. Devastating. Closed more than it’s open.

We all enjoyed a delicious meal in an attractive setting, with friendly and efficient service. Afterwards we enjoyed very good coffee and malt whisky on the outdoor terrace while taking in the beautiful view. Highly recommend.

Surprise find . Lovely friendly service . Good pizza and amazing Tiramisu. Went with my daughter as a quick stop to break up a long drive and would not hesitate to come back .

Fantastic cafe, great breakfast rolls, delicious coffee, fabulous freshly squeezed OJ. But particularly lovely service - really friendly and fantastically efficient - can’t recommend highly enough 👌👌 🤩

Excellent supper club experience! Eight great courses showcasing a range of Sardinian dishes. Great experience with friends, thank you!

Came here with my partner and the Outlaws. Pizza was great, nicely cooked and the sugo was amazing, so flavourful and delicious. The pizza was a bit thinner and crispier than I personally consider Neapolitan, but that’s really splitting hairs because it was very tasty. I opted for pepperoni. The chips were astonishingly good. I don’t need a pizza AND chips, but I would order the chips again without hesitation. Service was personal and professional and the restaurant ambience and environment was a pleasure to sit in.

Super warm welcome and truly DELICIOUS food!! We will definitely be back. It truly is a hidden gem not to be missed in Stirling.

Bittersweet is glorious. Absolutely exquisite cocktails, delicious small plates of Italian food and detailed and attentive service. The venue is beautiful and the staff were passionate and expressive in their shared mission to ensure we had a wonderful time and experienced a sensory explosion of flavour in everything we drank and ate. Visiting from London I was pleasantly shocked that the bill was so reasonable for such a feast in flavour. I honestly can’t think of a meal I’ve enjoyed more and am already looking forward to returning when back in Edinburgh for the festival. Leith has a new jewel in its culinary crown and it’s Bittersweet.
