Both had pizzas, very simple, excellent crust, fresh toppings, attentive staff, can sit outside- beautiful weather today so we did. Very reasonably priced.
place is brilliant went for night with friends birthday, had pizza and pasta. the service was great staff so friendly and helpful and funny, we had fantastic night would definitely go back again. the foods was delicious and I've had pizza in Italy and this was good one of my new places to go for Italian
Walking around beautiful Glasgow we came across this place which is in a great location and looked busy so we thought we would give it a try. What an amazing menu. Staff were so friendly and polite. Service was prompt and the servings were very generous. The lobster ravioli was just amazing. Fantastic place with a great atmosphere. A must visit.
Went to La Vita for a farewell dinner. Really nice Italian food , good ambience with close chair seating, must try are Mia Casa and Tira Misu
Went to Glasgow with family and went here for tea before heading home. Great wee place we love it . Food and service was great would go again.....
Tried the pollo fritto with chips, pollo cardinal, Mia casa pasta, mixed meat pizza loads cracking wee place for lunch or a midweek dinner. Very Tasty and reasonably priced. Only gripe they like to sit you too close to other diners.
Natty says Amazing!. Had never really thought about going here until I was taken on a date. The Raviolli Rafaello and Tagliatelle Mia Casa was ordered and it was suggested we share it "Italian" style. I was intrigued, thinking maybe getting side plates ect. Not the case. Forking off each others plates, how romantic :-). The atmosphere was electric and it was very busy. Absoloutley loved it, the food was outstanding, service was so so friendly and very prompt, we were even brought christmas crackers! Had a great night.
Great Food. For Italian food this place cannot be touched with great staff also, with first class service
Love the food, good that you can use the type of pasta you want. Staff very friendly, reasonably priced
Excellent Italian food, the pasta dishes are fantastic
Fantastic restaurant, been her about 10 times because the food/location is so good that we keep coming back. It's the right amount of Italian and the right amount of Glaswegian and the food again is superb. Advice: look out for la vita on the 5pm deal. 3 courses and glass of prosecco for £14
Went in for the first time for dinner, the food was amazing, very quick service and the staff were pretty friendly.
The prices were great for what we were given, and the portion sizes were huge. We ordered carbonara, lobster ravioli, and 2 frozen strawberry daiquiris, which tasted amazing.
We didn't have a desert, but they all looked amazing. Every single one is freshly made by the chef.
I enjoyed my experience here. The food was 10/10 so good so yummy. The staff are AH-mazing! So friendly and so helpful. Would definitely recommend and would definitely come back.
I came here to have breakfast and loved the food. We came here after walking a lot to find a place to get some classy breakfast, and it was definitely worth it. The waiters were very friendly and the food arrived pretty quickly. Next time I will be here to get some nice lunch or dinner.
Italian Restaurant - pizza, pasta. Seemed quite authentic to us ; like it's run by a multi-generation Italian family. There are several floors and steep stairs. I thought the food was very good at lunchtime.
Authentic Italian vibes with the flags and cakes in glass tins. Downstairs and first floor seating. Loved the appetisers and main course dishes. Reasonable pricing. It has a dumbwaiter lift which was interesting to watch as the dishes came from upper floor and there would a loud tring sound!
Not a 5-star because
- As soon as we were seated, the waitress came to take our drinks order and when we said we require 2 mins, she came in again twice and we had to explicitly state we need more time to order. There were plenty empty tables, so didn’t understand the need for the rush.
- The Tiramisu (which I would expect to be impeccable since it is an Italian restaurant) had too much whipped cream/foam and we couldn’t taste any biscuity parts.
Have come here every time I've been through Glasgow to go hiking, exclusively for that wonderful dish that is breakfast.
£12 (ish) and you'll be greeted with orange juice, tea, and an absolutely fantastic selection of delicious breakfast treats from Lorne and Black Pudding, to some esoteric fried potato scone topped with beans- I don't know what that thing is full of beans, but whatever it is, it's without a doubt delicious. Honestly you can't beat it- it's magical.
Definitely come here if you have a train to catch and want a quick feast- you won't be disappointed. My only regret is my fear to ask for more than one breakfast- I'd feel a bit shameful for my weight though if I started buying more than one when I pass through.
Manager was very kind in accommodating us just half n hour before closing time! All very reasonably priced for a central location, the sharing half n half dish was superb for me and my girlfriend. We even managed to squeeze some brilliant desserts in can’t recommend this place enough for a genuine, authentic high quality Italian meal in the heart of Glasgow
We went for our daughters graduation meal we had our very fussy 5 year old & baby sister . Our 5 year old gave the pizza 12000 out of 10. Now any where we go it's normally a 1Start she gives so this speaks wonders. The staff were fantastic with both adults & the girls. We shall definitely come again when down Glasgow & have recommended for others xxx
Good value with nice food and excellent service. Nice atmosphere, slightly cramped but still ok.
Portions are large and food quality is decent. Would recommend!
La vita is a phenomenal little restaurant, great menu, fantastic food/drink and its such a relaxing place. One thing i thought was lacking was the service, took a while to be served, never received drinks and it took a while to get the bill.
• Judging on how highly this place is reviewed we probably caught them on an off day.
will be back ✅
Really enjoyed La Vita! Beautifully decorated and very polite staff. I ordered the Mia Casa and it was gorgeous. Only down fall was that me and my partner reserved our table, we were sat next to a walk in table and they received their food, bill and drinks way before us even though we were seated about 20 minutes before them. But it was a busy Saturday night so understandable! Will definitely be back to try it again
Traveling alone for the first time in over 20 years, a colleague recommended this restaurant to me and I was not disappointed.
I was offered a central table on the balcony, the vibe is bustling, welcoming and warm. I was dining alone, there was no rush, the waitress was friendly and attentive
The food is outstanding, go for the set menu, plenty of choice for vegetarians.
My only piece of advice is to book your table in advance as it gets busy. And remember, Life Is Beautiful 😍
