Harden's survey result
Summary
A 1914 landmark (a scenic-looking former tram stop) houses this “homely Italian” on the Southside. That it’s “a bit cramped when busy” is the worst anyone has to say of it – it’s consistently praised as a “cheap ’n’ cheerful” local favourite. On the menu, pizza, pasta and gelati alongside a few nourishing mains (pork Milano, beef cheek pie, risotto…)
Summary
“A family-type Italian restaurant” on the Southside with “good food and nice atmosphere”. It’s easy to spot, as it inhabits a striking-looking 1914 building, once described as Scotland’s most glamorous tram stop.
Summary
It is as a family-friendly option that Marco Giannasi’s quirky Southside landmark – occupying a 1914 building once described as Scotland’s most glamorous tram stop – attracts most nominations; on the large Italian menu: pizza, pasta and a variety of affordable dishes.

For 32 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
