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 visited for family tea as we were staying nearby - thoroughly deserved its 5.0 rating - the food was fresh and full of flavour and service very welcoming. The chicken milanese and pasta pancetta were both delicious. Look forward to returning next time we’re in the area.

This is a very very special place. We’ve been a few times now whenever we’re in Dunkeld and have been blown away by the food and how consistently amazing it is. Morgwn the owner is so kind and hospitable and the atmosphere he’s created is just beautiful. I often am disappointed by places with higher reviews but Redwood Wines deserves all the praise, trust me try it!!

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

Staff are very friendly and efficient. Lovely decor, and the food was very tasty with a good menu, and care and detail were taken in the presentation of the dishes . Would highly recommend a visit

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!

Fantastic lunch yesterday at Kaoglen restaurant. Food was excellent, staff were fantastic. Started with Brushetta followed by the Piri Piri chicken burger which was delicious, my wife had the carbonara and said it was one of the best she’s eaten. Fantastic views from the restaurant and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be back and can highly recommend

I’ll be honest, we went here because Kilted Donut next door was closed for Christmas/ Hogmanay! We ordered 2 x millefoglie - chocolate and pistachio. They were nice but expensive at £3.50 each. We were in and out in about 10 minutes but it looked like a popular place.

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.

Excelente experiencia de club de cena! Ocho excelentes platos con una amplia gama de platos sardos. Gran experiencia con amigos, gracias!

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.

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.

Another excellent meal at Ravenscourt House. Delicious homemade soup and couldn’t resist having the Carbonara again. The Bruschetta, Seafood Tagliatelle and Duck Ragu also looked very good and all were generous portions. The service was very welcoming and friendly so it was a great evening.

On cold and very wet December days, this cafe was a great place to warm up. I suspect it would be a great 'slice of Italy' at any time of the year. Excellent hot and tasty panini, homemade scones and hot coffee...very welcome and much needed. Great attentive and friendly staff. We will ready return (and have) to this great cafe. For us, a bonus is that it is nowhere near the city centre.

Tuvimos una gran experiencia (otra vez) con nuestra familia y nieto pequeño. Recibimos una bienvenida muy cálida, un menú enorme para elegir, tubería caliente comida deliciosa y un gran servicio. Muy recomendable...
