Small friendly restaurant food was terrific and the boss looked after us and listened to our needs, mustard with the chicken, well done fries and our wishes were actioned quickly as requested, lovely hidden gem highly recommend it but booking is needed especially at weekends

LL Italiano promises an ‘authentic taste of Italy that will transport you to a sunny day’. The restaurant has been serving the local Newton Mearns community for many years and gets great reviews. Inside, the decor is relaxed and rustic, with old black & white photos of Hollywood movie stars on the walls. The menu features a range of Italian favourites as well as unique dishes that you won’t find anywhere else.
You will find plenty of crowd-pleasers on the LL Italiano menu, from lasagne al forno to chicken Milanese to pizza margherita. Veggie dishes include spinach & ricotta ravioli and penne arrabiata.
But you’ll also find more decadent fare, including lobster pasta with aurora sauce; sliced fillet steak & Italian sausage rigatoni, and pan-fried veal with parma ham, sage & white wine. Or, if you’re feeling daring, why not try the Pizza Inferno with spicy chicken, pepperoni & chilli?
You can also tuck into a fillet or sirloin steak served with a range of sauces and sides. Seafood offerings include king prawns pan-fried in white wine or lemon sole with parsley.
Based on Ayr Road, LL Italiano is right across from The Whitecraigs Golf Club. Rouken Glen Park is a short car journey away, so you could enjoy a hearty Italian meal after a ramble around the greenery. The restaurant is about a 20-minute drive from Glasgow city centre.
