The best restaurants serving Italian food in Scotland

Was cery tasty me and my family love this place

great food and wonderful service too!!

The food served is of good quality, but it's the same old menu time after time. The restaurant also lacks atmosphere, which is a shame because it used to be the best restaurant in Helensburgh under previous owners.

Rubbish expensive Thought id try here at night after a few pints. Delivery service. Pizza way way to expensive for all it is.. the price i paid for 2 pizzas is obscence. Didnt even taste that good for the price paid. Next time if i want a pizza I will go to my Chest freezer and stick on a pizza from there. Much cheaper and tastes better.

This Cafe is no longer here, permanently Closed

Great food king prawn piccante is the best ever plus great friendly service

I'd been meaning to visit this place for years, and now I finally got the chance. Sadly, it appears to be closing, so I probably won't get another chance. The food was excellent, and the service was even better. The kind of friendly family-style place that's rare in Edinburgh these days.

Not really sure if I'm missing something here but recent reviews are raving about this "little gem" "fresh family pasta" and we just didn't get it. Sadly sat between an 8 and 4 top which both ordered slightly before us, push our 2 top of starters out first was my thinking..... nope we sat and watched the 8 top get starters and the 4 top get starters and mains!! Thankfully we got moved as our starters arrived (40 mins after sitting down), away from the middle of the two tables. Mediocre brushetta and seafood salad.l, something that I could do at home tbh. An hour and 15 after sitting we get two plates, not bowls, of penne pasta clearly not freshly made, with a trickling of wet sauce that barely coated the pasta. Maybe we got them on a bad night but for me it's a no return. Staff licking fingers behind the deli, chefs serving food with hand towels, door open IN OCTOBER and just no real atmosphere or attention to guests or food for that matter. £43 for 2 starters 2 mains, 1 beer 1 juice and 1 pudding, really good price but for sure it's not value for money if you know what I mean. Defo had a snack when we got home as portions are small.

A warm, friendly welcome walking into a tastefully decorated hotel was nice. The room was spacious, well decorated and immaculate, as was the rest of the hotel. Evening meal was plentiful and well cooked in a pleasant dining room. Breakfast had plenty of options and very tasty. The staff really make sure you are well looked after in this lovely hotel. Mansfield house certainly lives up to its 4 star rating and we would happily stay here again.

First time there and was great food. Definitely going again

When Bar Vini opened, it was great. However, the last few times I have been there, the staff have been rude, and after the last time, I can say I will never be back. I suggested we went there with friends who hadn’t been there before, but the service was slow and unfriendly. When we finally got our meal - ten minutes later, we were asked to hurry up and finish as they needed the table back; they offered to package up our food for us and explained we had agreed to their time slot when booking; however, it was hectic, and the service was slow, so not our fault we couldn’t keep to the time slot. Rather than causing a fuss, we left. The staff were insulting and laughed as we went. I noticed another table getting the same treatment. I really do not recommend.

Brilliant atmosphere. excellent service. I am honestly shocked how this place is not spread all over the world. everything was amazing!

Loved it. It's just near Morrisons and the train station and serves exciting dishes and good Italian coffee. Others we spoke to have been coming here for years. It was a real find for us as we like going to Largs. Lovely decor. We shared a tray of meats and cheeses.

Staff very welcoming, friendly and polite. If you have any questions about the menu they are all extremely knowledgeable and confident when explaining the ingredients to you. Fantastic experience and atmosphere will definitely be back. Keep up the good work.

Really disappointing. Had gone has had great reviews, but service was flat and not special. Restaurant was chilly, basic set up, paper nspkins, no candles for dinner. Cold bisque which I sent back but no further check all was good. Felt it was expensive and wouldn't return.
