Celentano's

I had an amazing meal in the restaurant. The staff were all professional, welcoming and friendly. I was there on a Sunday when it is a set menu - choose from two starters and from four mains. I could quite happily have chosen any of the options as they all sounded fab. I also had one of their cocktails, a Seasonal Daiquiri which, on the day I was there, was a pickled apple and citrus daiquiri. It was sooo good I had to have a second!!!

The service was outstanding and the bartender/server was absolutely charming. The food was amazing! We have a vegetarian among us and the veg option was absolutely amazing. We also had the affogato (split between two people) for dessert as recommended by our server and it was wonderful. The sourdough bread was the best bread we’ve ever had.

This is a place I feel like I’ve been to before. I haven’t, but the decor has a feel of places I’ve been in LA, New York and Melbourne. It’s dark a dark and moody feel for a space with such high ceilings and multiple levels. It was raining outside, early in the evening, not all the lights were on and there were candles for ambiance. The food was great. The beer was lovely. The cocktails appreciated. But there was a gentleman who said he normally works in the kitchen that answered our questions and gave us insights on the food that made the dinner far more enjoyable and it is my mistake that I didn’t ask his name.

Amazing dinner at the bar. Lively, intimate room buzzing with warm energy and a friendly staff. Food was inventive and well executed. Cocktails were unique and made with house-infused liquors. A must try on your next visit to Glasgow.

**Restaurant Review: Outstanding Service** I recently dined at Celentano's, and I must say the service was exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive without being intrusive. They went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was perfect. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, offered excellent recommendations, and checked on us regularly to ensure we had everything we needed. The food arrived promptly and was presented beautifully. Overall, it was a delightful experience, and I can't recommend Celentano's highly enough for their fantastic service and hospitality. I'll definitely be returning soon!

Another fantastic meal at Celentano’s. We were there for dinner yesterday and it was phenomenal - amazing food, wine and service. I booked a table in the upstairs restaurant and we sat by the window. The ambience felt warm and cosy, with the room perfectly lit by candles. Sadly I can’t remember the name of our server (the wine really was that delicious) but he was welcoming, chatty and informed - and as a gluten-free diner this made me feel relaxed and comfortable. The food didn’t disappoint (it never does!) - gorgeous fresh pasta, beautiful seasonal ingredients and a varied menu that will wow a variety of dietary requirements and preferences. 10/10? More like 1000/10. Absolute perfection.

On Christmas Eve, we had the pleasure of dining at Celentano's in Glasgow, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we stepped through the doors, the warm and festive ambience set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The restaurant’s charm, coupled with attentive and friendly service, made it the perfect spot for our Christmas Eve celebration. We began our meal with an indulgent round of cocktails and champagne, which were expertly crafted and truly delightful. To accompany these, we sampled a selection of small bites that showcased the kitchen’s skill and creativity. The lasagne fritti were melt-in-the-mouth perfection, while the chicken liver mousse was silky smooth, complemented by a crunchy crumb and a tangy “ketchup” that elevated every bite. The house-made bread was a standout – fresh, warm, and utterly delicious – as was the house-made salumi sausage, which offered a depth of flavour that was truly memorable. For our next course, we each enjoyed the restaurant’s signature beef pappardelle as a small plate. This dish was pure comfort: the tender beef and perfectly cooked pasta were enveloped in a rich, flavorful sauce that left us wanting more. We then shared the rib of beef for the table, a centerpiece dish that was cooked to perfection. Each bite was juicy and flavourful, highlighting the quality of the ingredients and the skill of the chefs. Accompanying the beef were sides that were just as impressive. The salad was crisp and refreshing, while the potato strati stole the show – crispy on the outside, fluffy and light on the inside, and simply irresistible. To round off the meal, we treated ourselves to Celentano’s take on affogato. This playful and indulgent dessert was the perfect ending to a spectacular dinner, leaving us with smiles on our faces and already planning our next visit. Overall, Celentano’s is a gem in Glasgow’s dining scene. The ambience is perfect, the service is attentive without being overbearing, and the food is a masterclass in flavour and presentation. If you’re looking for a restaurant that delivers on every level, Celentano’s is a must-visit. Our Christmas Eve dinner was flawless, and we can’t wait to return.

When our original dinner plans fell through, we were left scrambling for a last-minute reservation. Thankfully, Celentano’s came to the rescue and graciously accommodated us at very short notice – a testament to their exceptional service, which continued throughout the evening. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. We began with a selection of their snacks, each one a delightful burst of flavour that set the tone for the meal. We then opted for the Pappardelle with Dexter Beef and Corra Linn, a dish so tender and flavourful it practically melted in the mouth. This was followed by the glazed Dexter beef and BBQ trout fillet served with strati potatoes, which were a perfect balance of crispy and fluffy, showcasing a level of precision and care that elevated the entire meal. To finish, we had their take on affogato – a beautifully crafted dessert that was both comforting and sophisticated. The wine selection was excellent and paired perfectly with our meal. The restaurant’s atmosphere was warm and lively, adding to the overall experience. I would wholeheartedly recommend Celentano's to anyone – it truly stands out as one of the best restaurants in Glasgow. From the exceptional service to the unforgettable food, this is a dining experience that stays with you.
