Last minute decision to go for dinner after work with a friend and we booked a deal through . We got two courses and a drink/cocktail for £14.50ish which was awesome. Neither of us had been so checked out the reviews on here first and gave it a go. I recall going here many years ago but it was called something else, must have been at least 15 years ago. The décor is pretty with an Italian cozy feel and string lights all over the place. It was quite busy but we got an option of tables. The waiter was so friendly and nice, recommended some dishes and was very chirpy. My friends started of with black pudding and apple which got great praise but my chicken liver pâté was very disappointing. My pâté tasted like the horrible cheap shop bought stuff and I love a good homemade pâté. The Italian sausage pasta I had was nice although not enough actual sausage pieces, more of a mince type consistency but ate the lot. My friend got a pizza with black pudding and the waiter recommended adding a fried egg which he did and loved, he said he would get all of his meal again. We also ordered fries which couldn’t be faulted, you’d be surprised how hard it is to find a good chip. We asked the waiter if we could have some garlic mayo which he told us he actually just made up himself as they didn’t have any, it was delicious but I stunk of garlic for days lol. The waiter also told us he was on come dine with me and won, he got a high five for that and I look forward to seeing it in September. I have given three stars as the food was nothing to write home about but service was good and restaurant was cozy. Would go back some day but not rushing back. Worth a try!

In here today for a networking lunch. The networking was nice. The food and service were not. My starter(pâté) was fine — it’s hard to go wrong with a slice of pâté & oatcakes — but the lettuce was limp, the underside of the plate was dirty(had to wipe the grease from my fingers with the napkin) and the service perfunctory. Oatcakes weren’t anything special. Balsamic drizzle was fine, if a little dated, and the fruit jelly was nice. My main was really incredibly disappointing, and I left most of it. Mushroom linguine should taste of something other than grease. Scratch that, it should taste of *something*. I piled on the parmesan to see if it would make it any better, but no. Bland, tasteless. Sigh. Oh, and another dirty plate. We were a large group — 14 or so — and having worked in bars & restaurants I get it, large groups on a lunchtime can be difficult. But the place wasn’t that busy, and there’s no excuse for being dismissive and grumpy, or kicking up a fuss when a couple of people needed to pay by card. It’s not that big a deal. Wiping the table between courses and clearing away glasses might be a plan too. Won’t be going back, won’t be recommending it.

The 2 course and a cocktail deal is excellent value and I have taken advantage of it several times. I find this place a bit of a mixed bag; sometimes I’ve had a really nice meal, but on occasion the pasta has been over cooked and/or a bit dry, as if it has been microwaved. However, it’s good value for the money and I do keep going back. This place used to be Fixx II which was one of my favourite bars, mainly because of the great atmosphere and this place seems to have kept that vibe going. It is chilled out and lively all at the same time. Because it’s usually busy it can be a bit noisy, so I wouldn’t recommend it for a quiet, romantic meal, but I like the atmosphere a lot. The cocktails are good– I think I’ve probably tried the entire range now– and the bar staff are always friendly. Have never tried the a la carte menu but the 2 course deal is well worth trying.

As a first time visitor I really liked it here. The place was bursting at the seams and I’ve never been so glad that I’d had the foresight to book ahead! I don’t usually bother but with a show to see later we were time sensitive and didn’t want to hang about. We opted for the pre-theatre menu which was excellent value for money, and by booking via 5pm we bagged a free glass of whisky. Whats not to love about free anything! I had the arancini italian rice balls with dip and salad to start. The spicy dip added some welcome zing to the dish. I’d happily have them again. My pizza was a wee bit doughy in the middle, but the flavours were good. They offered parmesan for the pizza which is a nice touch, but obviously one to watch out for it you’re strictly vegetarian. Soho is a really upbeat kinda place with oodles of character and some great music. Our waiters kept everything running smoothly and were a friendly bunch who clearly knew what they were doing. A real credit to Soho. Would I go back? Certainly.

Really nice ambience. Staff are extremely helpful. Food is rather average. Price is very reasonable.

I popped in here for lunch last week with the awesome Bex M to try out their food which I’d heard so much about. The restaurant is a pretty nice space with large comfy booths so you might forget there’s even people sitting behind you(as I did a couple of times!). There is an express lunch menu of 2 courses for £7.95 which is hard to resist, but I actually didn’t really fancy anything on it so ordered the gnocchi from the full menu. The waitress explained they’ve actually changed their menu and don’t offer that anymore, so back to the express menu it was. I ordered the antipasti and the rigatoni alla matriciana(gluten free is an extra £1 I believe). I asked for them to come out together as I was super hungry. The food arrived after a short wait and the pasta was a super generous portion — so I probably didn’t even need the starter. The antipasti had a large portion of olives and a fresh chunk of bread but I wasn’t overly excited by the meats which were a bit bland. I did really enjoy the pasta though so that was nice — and the waitress happily lathered on the parmesan for me. The flavours were really nice and there was plenty of bacon and a good coating of sauce. The gluten free pasta was really tasty too and you’d never know it was GF. Service was helpful and friendly, and our waitress was really chatty and made sure we were well looked after. I’d definitely head back as the express menu is a really good price and you also have the option of ordering a baguette if you fancy something a little different from ususal Italian dishes.

Just go… It is a laid back phenomenal phenomenon for all ages or peoples. The mix is broad and yet the staff and layout and ambiance seem to make it work … So bring your stressed dads with babies, your cocktailing girl groups, your family gatherings, your hipsters, your business lunchers and launchers, your ladies who lunch, your men before the football, your leaving doers, your(classy) hen– partiers, your poor(it is a very affordable menu), your huddled masses(there is room for groups). This restaurant delivers(and not just takeaway), consistent good set menus, a wine list, cocktails and specials… Come for the cooling in the warm summer months, come in winter for the candlelight warming. You won’t be disappointed.

A great little italian place. Cosy with really great food and good veggie options. 5 of us went for the 2 courses at a superb price of £9.95 and ordered a bottle of Pinot Grigio plus a couple of beers. Wine and food were brilliant value. I had the wonderfully named Haggis Bön Bons as a starter and a to die for Spaghetti Carbonara as my main. Both were delish! Unfortunately the service was not so good which is why there are only three stars. We asked for water three times before it came and despite booking ahead we were still left waiting for our table for well over half an hour. We also had a pleasant enough but rather talkative and bossy waitress who seemed annoyed that we didnt know what we wanted right away. Had we been given menus to look at while we waited for 40 mins we may have been more prepared! Will be going back however, I’ll just be sure to have plenty of time to spare.

Popped in here for lunch with colleagues as they said the pizza was amazing. We decided to split 2 pizzas, chips and cheesy garlic bread between the three of us. All of the food came at once(would have been nice for bread to come first as we didn’t end up eating it!) and the pizza was good. We polished off all of it but it was more than enough for lunch for us three and we probably over ate! They do have lunch specials and daily specials and we were in and out in under a hour.

I’d walked past this restaurant so many times before, but last week Colin and I decided to go in for the first time to grab some dinner and I was pleasantly surprised. It’s very quaint Italian inside, with candlelight and a rustic interior, and we had a lovely meal. They do a meal deal but there wasn’t much choice on it so we went for the a la carte menu. After ordering my mushrooms on toast to begin with and struggling over ordering pizza or pasta, but eventually settling with pasta, our food was brought out to us swiftly and the staff were attentive to a good level without being annoying. The carbonara was rich and creamy like it should be and went down a treat! They have a good choice of wines as well to suit whatever it is you have to eat. Would definitely come back in here for dinner, a great place for dinner on a budget if you go for the dinner deal they have on. Lovely place!

A cool little old school Italian setting! 2 courses and a cocktail for £13.95? Bargain. I love the idea of going out for Italian food, I love pasta, pizza more pasta and more pizza all with a side of garlic bread but its hard to find a real good one! It restaurant it’s self is tucked away down on Miller Street and the setting of the restaurant was cool as well. So on to the food, for starters I had oven baked black pudding which was nice but just served with rocket! Main meal I went for bolognese(maybe this was just a bad choice I keep making) it was bland! I wasn’t awful but neither fantastic! It such a shame as I love all pasta dishes. The service wasn’t that great either, I asked for a glass of tap water 3 times and it never appeared I eventually gave up and asked for a coca cola! This thankfully turned up! Nice restaurant but next time I will be going for pizza!

Yummy pizza and quite interesting options for toppings. I had a Margherita — though I’d really just describe it as a cheese pizza — and my husband had the Flaming Scotsman(haggis & jalapeño). We both enjoyed our pizzas and the starters we chose. We were there as part of a large group and the service was very polite and responsive. Being in a location that is essentially a basement level means there is little phone coverage, but the restaurant offers free wifi so that’s nice if you need to stay connected. Definitely a place to keep on my list for next time we find ourselves in Glasgow.

For me, this place is all about the takeaway deal. For a measly £5 you can choose from a selection of pizzas, pastas and salads + a drink of your choice. It’s great for when I’m craving a delish ‘real’ pizza, and not a generic dominos or something similar. The pizzas here used to be my favourite, and I would come at least once a week! Unfortunately about a year or so ago they changed kitchen staff and for some reason the pizzas arent as good as they once were, but it is still a great deal and I would definitely recommend trying them out(my favourite is the cajun chicken pizza — very tasty) I have also eaten in before, the place is always great and the staff really friendly. The cocktails are awesome and it’s a great place to go for a relaxed meal with friends, for some great italian grub. Great location right near the centre of town, if you live nearby I would urge you to check out their take-away options as they are a steal!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I may have found my new nibble zone. Just around the corner from the extortionate Corinthian Bar is an unassuming ultra cool place called Soho. And unlike the actual Soho, it’s far less full of Transvestities, nippleclamp wearing bankers and people who work in Television. As soon as you walk in you are greeted with a lovely smell, a rather handsome and charming Matre’ D and a large menu of scrummy cocktails. CHEAPCOCKTAILS — an utter god send for the merchant city. They catered for a Party of ten of us and it was a lovely set mix and match menu. The food on the REAL menu looked even better. Tip for this place, REDWINE. They have a nice and not too extortionate selection. Also, make sure if it’s a toss up between pizz and pasta. Go for PIZZA. You get alot more. The pasta is lovely, but massive tubes mean it tasts like your eating air. So if you have the appitite of a sparrow Pasta. If you’re a manly man, Pizza. If you’re Chuck Norris — get the stake. Warm, intimate, cosy but trendy venue. Great for close friends — or close friends who want to get closer — giggedy. More dining wisdom next time. xxx

Went for lunch last week with some colleagues. Not overly impressed. The ‘bruschetta’ was about the most tasteless I’ve had and the main course was average but not large portions. It’s not a good sign when you finish lunch feeling hungry and a bit disappointed. Probably wouldn’t go back.

This is one of my favourite restaurants in the city. It’s not overly fancy, the sort of place I can go after work and feel comfortable. The food and service are both great and it’s excellent value for money. What more can I ask?

I’ve been back here many times for cheap food and great cocktails The main reason why I returned was one night it was lashing it down and we ran in to the first drinkerie we saw — sat up at the bar and had a beautiful cocktail — a raspberry mule. Came back a few days later for a meal and had a pre-meal drink at the bar. I wanted the cocktail I had the night before but couldn’t remember what it was called and couldn’t see a menu. The barman remembered me and the drink I ordered. I was very impressed and SoHo has never dissapointed since

I don’t buy it… given the number of stoopidly good reviews being bandied around about this place, i was expecting almost gourmet pizza to be served in a sexy like way… possibly with dancing horses, juggling aliens and midgets on stilts in the background… what i/we got was average pizza served in a pleasant, but nowt much going on really, type way. Yip two courses for a shade under £9 quid is a tempting offer and if i’m being entirely honest, then the grub was alright. It’s just that there was nothing there that made me think ‘wow’ that place really rocks. Grub– Average Service– Not bad, guy behind the bar had some good banter, but waiter left us for 15 mins at the end with nobody coming to offer final bill or drinks Location– Distinctly average… kinda lacking in any real identity. Will i be back… eh, probably not. There are better places in town to grab a quick bit of italian grub.

I would never have really noticed SoHo if someone hadn’t told me about it. It’s hidden away underneath Miller Street, only given away by a small sandwich board advertising it outside. The ambience inside the bar/restaurant is great. It’s quite dark, with authentic music playing and the waiter told us to sit where we wanted as it was quite empty. We chose a booth, and perused the menu. The set menu is pretty good, 2 courses for £8.95, but the main menu was hard to resist. I stuck to the pre-theatre, and ordered the roasted sweet peppers on crusty bread, and my other half had the goats cheese. He totally raved about his, and mine was honestly one of the nicest starters I have ever had. There were loads of sweet red peppers, my absolute favourite, dressed in a tomato and herb sauce on top of crusty bread. Heavenly! I decided to order one of the pizzas from the menu, as I had heard they were fantastic. I am more of a deep pan girl, but it was nice, just not to my taste, but probably incredibly authentic. My boyfriend had a haggis and jalapeño pizza which I wasn’t keen on at all! He loved it though. The bill was reasonable, and the meal was fab. I would try something other than the pizza next time, but overall, gorgeous wee place, and fantastic food.

SoHo is an Italian restaurant in Glagow, not Soho London as the name would have you believe. Among friends, SoHo has been recounted to me as great for pizza and ok for pasta dishes. That was a bit vague for me, so I decided to have a look for myself. When I made an appearance at SoHo I had a pizza, nicely done. But most importantly I was pleased with the selection of cocktails that could accompany my thin crust. A major plus is that there are gluten-free options, this is the only place I have seen this before, ever.
