The best restaurants serving Italian food in Scotland

Amazing food as always! Absolutely unreal!

Rubbish, got to front of Q, to be told 10 minute wait. After 15 mins, was then told another 15 before taking any orders. Asked him why the couldn’t have been truthful, he just told me “I’m telling you now, if you don’t like it leave.” So; terrible service and customer relations. Now; I design apps for takeouts and they have had a flood of takeaway orders so have taken a dump on the folk waiting and prioritised the online business.

What a place! An Edinburgh institution that has great food, delightful staff and a wonderful atmosphere. Pizzas, pastas, salads and loads more made a Monday evening meal one to remember.

Went for lunch. Very cute and clean place. Service was great and price was acceptable. Food was deliciouses.

First time visiting here with my dad before a Scissor Sisters concert. Had a lovely Margherita pizza and dad had a minestrone soup, he liked it. Busy on a Sunday later afternoon and friendly staff.

Love the art deco touches ! I hired the whole restaurant for a function and brought a jazz singer in ! Staff were outstanding ! Just needed to dim the lights a bit more for jazzy vibes ! Love it !

Party of eight dealt with smoothly and efficiently from the start with a warm welcome. Decor was nice as was the atmosphere Food excellent as were the staff

Esca has been closed for years !

Brilliant server, really helpful and friendly. Good food as usual. Really enjoyable mid-week impromptu dinner.

My son and I visited for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed our meal, we both had the veal saltimbocca which was excellent. The service from the two gentlemen however was not, it was rude, impersonal and impatient and only got worse after we paid our bill, which we had not asked for and which included a 10% service charge. This place would be greatly improved if they employed front of house staff with hospitality skills. We will not be back.

We ate here on our second evening in Ayr following a recommendation by the owner of the guest house where we were staying. Seating is very comfortable and the restaurant is quite spacious. There’s a full menu of primarily Italian dishes with a good selection of pasta dishes and pizzas. The lasagne and pasta carbonara were very tasty along with a risotto dish. Service was very good…friendly and professional and despite being busy, staff were very observant. There’s a very large bar serving a particular good selection of cocktails. We thought prices were about average for the area and we enjoyed the experience of eating here.

Have stopped doing gluten free fish and chips. A backward step at a time when most places are increasing their gf offerings. Very disappointing.

The bistro is in the shopping center on the first floor. Were here for breakfast. Condition totally friendly. The food came super quickly. We really enjoyed it. Prices rather cheap. Clear recommendation.

Very tasty, large portions, enough choice, very friendly service

Have been going to Nonna's in kirkintilloch since it opened. First time we've been disappointed !! Ordered a Share. Pizza arrived without the two extra toppings ordered. Pretty sure it came back reheated 🤪 although they insisted it wasn't. Soggy and slimmy got to be the worse Pizza we've eaten. as for the meatballs least said the better. Have spoken to friends who were there the same night three if the six were equally disappointed. Certainly not the usual standard at Nonna's although to be fair they reduced our bill but would rather have paid full amount and received a first class meal. Hoping there was an unforeseen problem in the Kitchen but certainly way short of expectations.
