Hidden in plain sight on one of Glasgow's busiest streets, many would walk past this Italian institution situated right opposite Central Station. The warm and unpretentious setting, together with a few glamorous touches, invites diners to indulge themselves, and with the arrival of the table nibbles you know you're in good hands - the house-made focaccia is so moreish it would satisfy as a starter by itself.
Aged prosciutto and 'seasonal fruit' is beautifully presented as a parcel of the freshest mixed berries, rich in colour, enveloped in a bed of the finest, thickly sliced prosciutto ham. It's a simple but mouthwateringly sweet and salty delight - testament to the quality of their ingredients. Risotto mari e monti is among the best risottos you'll try in Glasgow.

Wine & Drinks List
Report
The vineyards are planted mainly on poor glacial soils that force the vines to dig deep for nutrients. The resulting wines are complex, intense and fine. Lively, freshly cut pear and baked bread character with a touch of sherbet and a nutty note. There are diverse wines on offer here with aromatic styles from the mountainous areas of Piemonte and long, minerally almost Chablis-like Gavi which nods towards the Genovese coast.

The restaurant has a very modern Italian feel, and all the staff were very pleasant and helpful and welcoming. Inside is not the biggest of restaurants, so if you want to visit maybe advanced booking is best so your not disappointed. So having both meant that there was no pate left! which is a BIG pet hate of mine more so when its really nice Pate.
