This is a little gem of a find which most students from Glasgow uni would tell you. However, got a shock when I walked in today. The place had a complete make over. There's now seating upstairs - bonus! Come here any time of the day or night. Everything on the menu is tasty. And I'd recommend the mini Nutella calzone. Divine!
A Tight Fit. This compact café has character the big chains can only dream of. Every square inch seems to be spoken for with either shelves of Italian produce or some decor of the homeland. I squeezed into a little booth and awaited my pizza. It's a busy place and the queue at the counter seems endless. My pepperoni pizza was delightful. Nice and crispy and not at all oily. There is a good selection of cakes and snacks for the sweet toothed as well as salads. Well worth a visit but avoid the busy times if possible.
Pizza's time!. I'm Italian and, this is really crazy, I can assure you that there's no a place in Europe where it's so difficoult to find a decent pizza like here in Glasgow. I should import some pizza makers in this city for sure!
The Little Italy's pizza it's not properly a really good pizza, but in the glaswegian-pizza-desert is a gem!
(the espresso is just perfect)
Good pizza. Nice although pizza is somewhat expensive
Always enjoy LE... A must do..
Best calzones ever. Excellent service. Brilliant place to eat out.
Lovely fresh pizza. Very busy but worth the wait.
Love it!. This place serves the best pizza and is in a great location. Highly recommended - well worth a try!
A fantastic place to relax and enjoy the best coffee in Glasgow. Friendly staff add to the overall experience which makes this a great place to watch the world go by.
A busy vibrant cafe with excellent food, coffee & staff. A place where everyone who is anyone frequents & loves. So, if in the neighbourhood come in and enjoy, you won't regret it!
As I write this review I'm sitting in Little Italy about to devour a pizza and having a coffee while I wait. As some people have previously said the coffee isn't the best on offer in Byres Rd but on a cold winters night in late December I don't have any qualms. The pizza's are excellent and over the many years they have been established they still produce a high standard... Also good to people watch.
Good buzzing atmosphere, affordable, food not bad. Coffee is NOT the best this side of Rome! An extra shot is always required, better than the competition across the road though.
I love this cafe. I know it's famous for the pizza but everything I've tried has been excellent. The chicken pesto pasta is a personal favourite! Very cheap with great service. Highly recommend it.
My first lunch in Glasgow and it was totally amazing, I loved it. The atmosphere, the staff and especially the food were all fantastic. I was unsure what to order at first and I was recommended to try the pollo piccante by one of the staff. It was awesome😋
Then we got a 16" pizza to share and I have to admit, I didn't expect the portions to be so big, it was almost intimidating 🤣
Unfortunately, there wasn't enough storage in my stomach to try anything else but I will definitely be back to try out more of the foods on the menu 🥲
Besides the food, I really enjoyed the ambience of this place, it's the kind of place where you just want to sit down and chill and talk to your friends for hours. Definitely a place to come back to again😁
Everything is good atmosphere, service and food. Worth trying.
The 16” pizza is big, two are sufficient for 3 persons.
I first visited here on the first day they opened and loved it. Now many years later I always try and visit whenever I am back in Scotland and it's still fantastic
Friendly staff , reasonably priced in West End , aubergine is soft with tasty cheesy tomato sauce , pasta perfectly cooked , 16” pizza 💯 , too full to try the desserts!
the atmosphere here is wonderful. food tastes fresh and yummm but i think the portion could be increased slightly.
they have vegan options too ✨
very well maintained place and all the seats and tables are properly sanitised..
service is too good ❤️ overall really great place to have a comfy outing 🦭
The shop was cozy and temperature was good ! Serving was really great!
Especially, iced latte was the best ever
And pizze and lasagna were good and affordable price!!!
It's one of the best Italian shops I've been, the cheese pizza was so so good! And the pasta is so well done as well, really enjoyed the service too. Overall, I would recommend the cheese pizza and the penne napoli.
I really like this place. The lunch deal has a great value and is very convenient for anyone working nearby. Sitting in is nice as the place is very well kept and staff is very friendly. I didn't come across a dish I don't like so far. Their pizza is great and there's an ever changing selection of cake.
Amazing food and service, cute little pizzeria off the street. Had the Melanzane alla Parmigiana, it was amazing. Would highly recommend!
Best meal in Glasgow! The pizza was incredible. Very authentic Italian dough. The pastas were incredible. Chicken carbo and salmon penne are not to be missed.
