The best restaurants serving Italian food in Scotland

I love this wee authentic Italian cafe, great for grabbing a bite to eat and coffee and watching the world go by. Nice coffees, fantastic bakery food and the meals are tasty and proper homemade with fresh incredients.

Visited as three couples on a wet Saturday evening. It was busy when we arrived early but welcome was efficient and friendly. We ordered a couple of drinks while waiting for others to arrive. Though the place was very busy we were not rushed to place our orders, which was nice , giving us time to catch up with each other. Extensive menu with many typical Italian dishes and a few less common options. Prices normal for a good restaurant and will happily return in the future

Super yummy huge choice of flavours. We got 3 scoop tubs. Grapefruit, whisky & mango . Italian cherry, peach cobbler, strawberry. Absolutely delicious

Lovely place and amazing food, staff couldn't be more friendly or helpful especially jamie serving the drinks, definely will be going back and highly recommend.

Ristorante molto costoso, la pizza solo massa, con pomodoro crudo e mozzarella insipida. Fanno pagare addirittura il pane, cibo precotto, il baccalà dolce, la lasagna non c’entra proprio nulla con quella che cuciniamo italia. Servizio molto freddo da parte dellunica persona in sala.

Popped in last night for something to eat, really great place. Food was fresh and well presented. Nice bottle of house wine too. Loved the decor, brilliant staff.

Absolutely LOVE this restaurant!! Been 4 times now in the last 2 months and every meal has been absolutely perfect! Zachary & co are brilliant waiters and so lovely to myself and my toddler, blaine. Blaine even had a dance with them at the music night which was brilliant! Totally recommend booking your dinner that night especially! Service is always quick but we don’t feel rushed! There’s nothing I don’t like about this restaurant and I cannot wait to make my way through everything on the menu! See you soon Joanna, Ryan and Blaine

Although busy, we got shown to a table very quickly. There was a mouth-watering display of cakes available, however the scones we opted for were by far the best we’ve tasted in a long time. I’d a superb pot of tea, and thanks to the skill of the dedicated barista, my husband enjoyed a fabulous flat white. A row of dedicated tip bowls ensured that our lovely server, Susan, was acknowledged for offering us the wonderful option of having our scones toasted; delicious! A nice old-fashioned end to our Largs visit.

Review: Food: 5 stars The food was absolutely fantastic, deserving of every star. Full of flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly prepared with care. Service & FOH Team: -5 stars Unfortunately, the front-of-house team was a major disappointment. There were far too many staff members, most of whom spent more time chatting and making social media posts than attending to guests. The lack of attention to service was striking—maybe they should focus on matching the level of service with the quality of the food. While I’d happily return for the food alone, the poor service made it unlikely I’ll ever come back. Best of luck to the owner, who clearly needs a new manager to lead the front of house staff.

This is our favourite local restaurant. We eat here a lot usually on a Sunday when there is a very reasonably priced set lunch menu. The food is always good as in the service and the puddings are so good.

Disgusting, ordered a tasted sandwich,bread stale tasted of nothing.(sent back) Old leaking teapot, Dirty crokery was so old . Waitress nice,owner surly,young girl more interested on using her phone. My daughters steak sandwich nothing to write home about. Will never go back. Waste of money.

This is a great place for a quiet couples dinner. Lovely menu with some options for me as a vegan. We both had bruschetta to start, I had a lovely vegan pasta and my husband had a chicken pasta. Excellent spicy margarita made by the lovely barman Aiden. Service was really attentive, with friendly but not too intrusive staff. Aiden in particular was fantastic. Overall a great experience and good value for money, which is a rare find in St Andrews.

My wife and I visited this cosy Italian restaurant for dinner during a short stay in Kirkaldy. We enjoyed our meal immensely. The staff were both very friendly and attentive despite them being very busy. Prices for both food and drinks were very reasonable. When we are next in the area, we will definitely make a point of visiting again.

Booked this restaurant by email for my sons 24th birthday celebration on 4/10/16 I received 2 emails confirming the booking one received on the 3rd the second on the 4th confirming the date time and amount of people to be seated. We all turned up to a closed restaurant. I've emailed but no reply has been received as yet. Telephone number has message advising they can't take the call. Very disappointing. Bookings by email should not be taken when a place has closed down.

Quick visit on a busy Thursday night. Staff are good and decor is nice. Good menu and kids menu. Wide selection of drinks. Margherita pizza was simple and tasty. Pasta alla Puttenesca was very good but a measly portion, could have done with same amount of spaghetti again. Very expensive garlic bread with cheese: five thin slices of ciabatta priced and £5.50?! Very poor. Also both pizza and pasta were hot but served on very cold plates. Could be better with a few small touches. Pints of Peroni well pulled and good value.
