The best restaurants serving Italian food in South Lanarkshire South West Scotland

I have to say, aesthetically the restaurant was faultless. It was nice, clean, the staff polite. The issue was simply the food and the value vs quality. So starting with the starters, my partner had a great starter, hers was the melon and prosciutto ham. That was fine, it was nice and the salty ham vs sweet melon was great. My starter was terrible, I ordered the battered scallops. The scallops were virtually flavourless and whilst scallops are mild, this was just dull. As for the batter, it was very bready. I’ve no idea how else to describe it, but it was heavy, flavourless, and the dish was simply awful. As for our mains, the sea food linguine was in my opinion overly spicy. My partner enjoyed the spice but found the overall dish bland. The sea food was comparatively better than the starter, but only marginally. The scallops was much better than the starters but that’s again only comparatively, and there wasn’t a perception of good value for money with it. It was also disappointing that the langoustine came with in tact claws and no claw crackers to open them. As for the veal, it was like old leather in gravy. The veal I’m used to is tender, soft and flavourful. This was not like that. The meat was tough like week old leather soaked in a gravy. We did find that the young server forgot about us a couple of times but he was sweet enough and tried. But overall the food and drinks came to nearly £90. We didn’t feel it was worth the price tag. Pretty restaurant that’s tucked out the way, and clearly a lot of thought put into the place. Just wish as much effort went into the food.

Service first class, food great

Really delicious food in nice, lovely atmosphere. This was our first time visiting Zucca and it won’t be our last. Staff were both knowledgeable and pleasant and looked after us very well. Food was freshly prepared and really enjoyable. Will definitely be back.

First time here sorry to say was not good hubby had the thinnest smallest sirloin I went for the monkish hard as rubber so loud couldn’t have a conversation really overpriced for what u get good thing was the coffee

Great experience with tasting menu & wine, food excellent as was wine. Staff so friendly & helpful. Definitely will be back

Coffee was good although disappointed there is no full breakfast despite it being advertised online. Overall, very overpriced in general. If they bring back the full breakfast, I would maybe give this place another chance. The pancakes and syrup were great though. We got two cappacicounos, one roll sausage and egg and pancakes and it was £28. This is robbery.

Visited for lunch met by a very friendly member of staff who showed us to our pre booked table had read a few reviews that were not too complimentary so was unsure what we would find no need great service and food was lovely the four of us shared a platter for a starter and it was more than enough main meals were all enjoyed too full for desserts finished with coffees will.certainly return

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.

A gem! Penne con Salsiccia, simple, fresh and brilliantly executed.

OK restaurant not the best service a bit slow and lacking atmosphere .food was a nit tasteless dessert and wine was good m.

Food was delicious we had the lunnch time menu and service were first class. Staff are so friendly polite and attentive they make you feel very special

Been to Di Maggios multiple times over years both the resturant and takeaway. Tonight we ordered two takeaway pizzas. One was salami. There was five small pieces of salami not even one piece per slice. Very poor.

Lovely place the fish was fresh as where the chips lovely wee place to visit if your looking for somewhere to sit in staff are brilliant nothing is a bother for them will definitely be back again and the ice cream is beautiful as well

Visited this establishment recently and even allowing for COVID the place lacked any atmosphere and the food was bland and uninviting to look at. Poor quality all round

We visited here as a party of six for dinner, none of us could fault any part of all three courses. A permanent addition to what will be one of our favourite restaurants. Great job.
