They offer a delicious selection of Italian cuisine. We went for the À La Carte menu, but the set menu is very good value for the quality and quantity of food. It's a lovely, Instagram friendly space; bright, light and colourful inside. The decoration makes for an ideal brunch or lunch setting. The staff were friendly but busy. We started with olives, bread, and olive oil. I was very happy with my ravioli which we had with a side of Rocket and Parmesan Salad with Balsamic Dressing. The octopus was wonderful and fresh, an unusual ingredient choice for pizza but it worked well. Highly recommend, would eat here again!

C. H.

Food is absolutely top tier but the staff do make it. Friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable and attentive. If you want a great dinner out this is a winner.

This place has a great menu, lots of choice and the food is good quality. If they have specials of lobster they actually bring out a live lobster! That might not be for everyone. That aside, the service was great and the staff are friendly. Loved that we weren’t rushed. The wine menu is fantastic, with a great range. We loved the limoncello with our bill. I would highly recommend this place.

I came here for a quick lunch choosing from the different options of the lunch menu. The offer is absolutely great for the value of the dishes: in order we took Bruschetta and arancini and then Arrabbiata and Risotto and for dessert a Tiramisù. The starters were both great: the cherry tomatoes were well marinated, while the Arancini, even if they were not traditional, they were absolutely fantastic. Risotto perfect, and the penne in the Arrabbiata were cooked perfectly. Tiramisù was tasty with a strong taste of coffee (as it should be) but I must admit I don’t really like the choice to put it in a jar. The welcoming was not as inviting as I had expected but then I must admit that the staff were attentive and nice. I recommend this restaurant for a good Italian meal.

Update 2/4/22: 10+ months later and it’s still amazing! The high standard has not slipped and they also offer breakfast now!! Highly recommend the prawns and avocado toast! We’ve come a few times for breakfast now (serving til 12pm). Also - check out their lunch menu! You cannot beat the prices + quality + fantastic people that work here! (Pic below of the Pollo Milanese)… Do yourself a favor and come enjoy the chill awesome vibe here. You will feel like you are in Italy ❤️ - - - We had a fantastic brunch there today. Beautiful atmosphere, lovely staff and great Italian food. This is my go-to Italian place now - you can tell how much thought went into the decor, the menu and staff training; that’s what makes this an excellent place to dine.

Had an amazing lunch here. The terrace outside is cozy and beautiful. The food and service are outstanding. Would definitely recommend.

J. L.

Person who was at front of house was really sharp and condescending. Staff seemed to be bored and stood huddled in a corner chatting away. Meal was great. Good pizza and pasta dishes, lots of choices. Desserts were pretty tasty, though nothing if you can't have dairy.

R. J.

Amazing experience. I really like the new style and design of the restaurant after the refurbishment. This was my first visit to any restaurant after the lockdown and it couldn't have been better. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the food was so great it brought me back to my hometown in Italy. I was surprised by the great effort made by the staff to clean each table as soon as a customer left. Keeping everyone safe and delivering superb service, well done! I will certainly be back!

M. B.

My new favourite Italian place! The dishes are full of flavour and Italian authenticity. Lovely, attentive staff who make you feel welcome. Very nice, clean decor with plenty of greenery. Will be back!

T. R.

Loved this beautiful restaurant. Everything ordered was incredibly good, and the staff was attentive and welcoming. 100% will return.

Y. S.

Excellent service very good food. Hang out with friends or have a date.

l. m. d.

Beautiful little place, food was absolutely delicious and portion size was great, staff very friendly. Will definitely be back

W. N. P. P.

Perfect Italian restaurant! I would put 10 stars if possible. Had a lovely time. I would take a train from London to Glasgow just to have lunch here

G. S.

Booked this thinking it was still Qua but we’re certainly not disappointed. Amazing staff served excellent food. Good choice of reasonably priced wines. We had mussels with garlic chilli and lemoncello sauce which was outstanding. The pizzas were thin and really tasty. Will definitely be back

J. S.

Lovely food, service and staff. We shared the muscles and bruschetta for a starter and it was delicious. The pizza was one of the best I had, such a light crust, will definitely be back next time we are in the city!!

r. k.

Today I have really enjoyed my experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious and staff are so pleasant they just make you feel comfortable. Such a calm environment and very clean.

s. H.

Fantastic service. Definitely go all out to make you feel special. Beautiful food and very good wine selection. Prices are surprisingly good & reasonable for the quality. I'd recommend and will be back for a dinner instead of the brief snack and glass I had today.

C. K.

This restaurant was called so.ething else previously and has recently came under new management and staff with a change of the menu leaning more toward nepolitana italian style. My partner and I had the 2 course pre theatre menu for £15 which wasn't bad! The gorgonxola gnocchi was really good, very moreish!! We had the dessert of the day which was a kind if chocolate cake which in all honesty wasn't very good. The staff were really nice and quite attentive and the location is good aswell. Not sure if I'd be back in a rush but there is definitely some dishes that I saw on the menu that I would like to try and maybe another dessert!

R. S.

Best pizza and lasagna! Also enjoyed our appetizers. Their lemon cheesecake went well with our lunch - was so good! The staff were all friendly and accommodating! Will definitely go back. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

m. e.

A really busy night, but the staff were attentive and the food was excellent. A great evening, two courses and wine & drinks for five for less than £200, great value!

S. H.

Wonderful food and wonderful staff ! After a horrible experience at another restaurant waiting over 1hr and a half and still weren’t served we went to Santa Lucia and were treated like kings . Food served within 10 mins and Ricardo looked after us ! Definitely recommend this gem

J. C.

Was in for dinner last night and my first experience of this restaurant. Food was great and staff were very friendly. Will be back.

S. B. J.

We felt very welcomed. Staff was nice and professional. We ordered spaghetti with king prawns and margarita. They were beyond delicious 👌

S. M.

Had a very lovely dinner as soon as we arrived in Glasgow after a very long day of travelling. We chose Qua Italian Restaurant as it was only a few doors down from our accommodation. The staff were wonderful and welcoming, the food absolutely delicious and generous, and the atmosphere buzzing. We loved Qua soooo much we went back the very next evening for dinner!! We loved Qua soooo much we went back for a third and final time for dinner!! We only had 5 nights in Glasgow and had plans for elsewhere, but the staff were wonderful and welcoming, the food absolutely delicious and generous, and the atmosphere buzzing that we couldn't resist. We toasted our brilliant holiday and bade a fond farewell to this fabulous city with the most friendliest of people with homemade limoncello - as someone who is teetotal, I found myself rather enjoying it! Do visit Qua if you're in the area!!!

K. H.

Nice ambiance, delicious food, impeccable service & the best tiramisù I’ve enjoyed anywhere (including Italy).

D. A. G.

This restaurant is a real find! The food was all completely fresh, and everything was delicious. The bread is baked in-house and is light and tasty, and the mushroom pizza is probably the best I’ve ever had. The lemon cheesecake wasn’t made with any half-measures, either: it wouldn’t be a bad idea to try and half it with someone. The staff were really friendly, and a cut above normal service. I’ll be back!

V. D.

The food was reasonable, well prepared and presented. The risotto was done just right, vegetables not over done. Food was delivered promptly. Service was fair, waiter jovial but seemed preoccupied with a table of young females. I can see being flirtatious from time to time but he spent most of his time with them. Maybe they were his granddaughters?

H. B.

No atmosphere as we were the only customers in the restaurant. Food was average. Pizzas were not very hot and base was rather heavy. Waiter attentive. Would probably not return.

M. H.

Wow. Excellent restaurant. Loved the food, drink and the ambience. We received such a warm welcome from Tony and the Irish coffee was amazing. I would have no hesitation in recommending Qua Italian to families or couples alike. Great service and amazing atmosphere. Thanks guys and keep up the good work! Can't wait to go back!

g. g.

Is ok, but please don't call Italian restaurant. Italians can get offended. We have been on 25/09/2020 for dinner. We've got a risotto ai funghi and rice was raw. My friend has penne al filetto, and penne were overcooked. I had tagliatelle with chorizo and prawns, good teste but you definitely don't feel the prawns taste. Or I was unlucky with the chef or if the quality is so, then definitely not Italian.

B. B. H.

Very good, well worth going. Food very much up to scratch, exactly what you'd expect. Staff very eager to please, if only to turn over the table for the next customer. But apart from that great.

J. P.

We walked past this place because it had changed it's name from Qua when we had last visited! Once we established that we were in the correct restaurant we weren't disappointed! We chose from the set evening menu and the food was delicious. The food was flavoursome and the portions were generous. The house wine was very good as well. The waiting staff were very attentive and very pleasant. We will return on a future visit to Glasgow.

P. M.

Was in lastnight for dinner first time we have been to the restaurant and we will definitely be back the service, food and value for money was excellent we got a lovely table at the window which suited us great. The girl who was serving us was called Ariana and she was so lovely and nothing was too much for her even with restaurant being very busy she still had time to talk to us and make us feel very welcome and special. Loved the whole experience my husband and I will definitely be back.

R. B.

First time eating here and would highly recommend! Food delicious especially the 'Tiramisu' can't rate that highly enough!! Waiters and waitress very friendly and welcoming. Can't wait to eat here again soon!!!

m. m.

Stunning three course meal with the kids on Tuesday night, every dish was really nice and tasty food. Friendly staff highly recommend if in the area. Also worth popping over the road to check out the breathtaking street art in the car park.

P. B.

I stopped into Qua in the early afternoon because I desperately needed change for the parking lot across the street. I was immediately struck by the atmosphere and the wonderful aromas of the food, as well as the friendliness of the manager, Edmond, and the rest of the staff. As a result we went back for dinner in the evening and were delighted with the food and the entire experience. A special starter that evening was Gnocchi Vesuvio, which featured the house recipe Italian sausage. It was a delicious mildly spicy dish. My wife's Penne Amatriciana was outstanding, and the other dishes we ordered were delicious as well. I highly recommend this restaurant for their food, service, atmosphere and value.

I. G.

Good food and atmosphere The live entertainment was a bit too loud

K. C.

Food was ok but also because we had a large table and a good time talking joking and in conversation. Staff were friendly but not all over us.

M. S.

Friendly and family like atmosphere. Food was OK, pizza was really good. Pasta not so much

O. G.

The food was lovely and the service very good. The starter specials A bit pricey for what it was and the portionson the smaller side but overall nice. For my taste the food was a bit salty.

S. o. A.

Fantastic place, tasty food, gorgeous cocktails, super friendly staff. Spoilt the kids and made them feel super special which was much appreciated. Toni especially was lovely

N. P.

Absolutely brilliant place. The service was amazing, more than nice with our toddler and the food was to die for, probably one of the best pizza I ever had

P. G.

The best Italian place in town, and there are other fantastic ones. Santa Lucia stands out, for the food, for the staff, for the choice of wines, even for the price.

T. D.

Amazing food and service!! Can’t hesitate to recommend!! Just go!

M. S.

Had a great time at this restaurant, lovely food and a happy atmosphere.

E. T.

Popped in for an early dinner with a friend and her 4 month old baby. Not only is the food, wine and service amazing the staff are just the most friendly, genuine and helpful you could ever wish to encounter. They helped my friend with the doors when she went to use the baby changing facilities and we never felt rushed to order or eat courses when she was feeding the bambino in between. Couldn't recommend it more - the best Italian we've eaten in the city centre! ❤️

F. M.

Fantastic night out at Santa Lucia.Had a short wait while a table became available in this busy restaurant. Maitre'd could not be more apologetic. Complimentary drink and coffee totally unnecessary but greatly appreciated. Food was excellent, staff attentive and polite. This is definitely a restaurant that I will return to and will recommend to friends and family.

M. R.

Delicious food, diligent service, and delightful decor. Definitely recommend.

G. G.

Very pleasant experience with attentive waitors and delicious food served!

M. E.

Fantastic night. Great service and lovely meal. Im not a fan of Italian food so got the steak and it was incredible.

E. W.

Wonderful set lunch, which was also offered at dinner time. Very well priced, generous portions and good quality food and service. Two of us had three courses for 31 quid including a couple of supplements, no drinks. Really good

R. G.

We have been traveling past 2 weeks and having great food. Qua has exceeded all by far. Service excellence!

M. A.

Lunch yesterday was absolutely delicious, fantastic choice on the menu, staff go above and beyond to create a superb atmosphere. Great to be back after lockdown missed the warm friendly welcome. Truly No1 Italian in Glasgow, highly recommend.

R. M.

We had an amazing first post lockdown meal on the first night of opening . All of our food was fantastic and the service was the usual top class that we always received in the west end location. Beautiful decor and I cannot wait to return to make a start on the wine library after the 17th.

A. D.

Delicious food. Really quick service and friendly staff. Will be back!

G. T.

Great Italian restaurant. The food is beautiful and had a lovely birthday lunch with my sister here. Service is excellent

J. S.

Food was amazing with a great atmosphere and great service

Q. P.

Really nice restaurant with a good atmosphere. Good for dates and meeting with friends. Good house white wine and interesting desserts. Large portions too!

G. H.

This place was great! Fabulous food and fantastic atmosphere. Twenty two of us went for my husbands 40th birthday and they were so friendly and accommodating. Waiter took our five year old daughter into kitchen to make her own pizza, and she was just thrilled. Staff gave our 1 year old so much attention too, singing to her and bringing her fruit and ice-cream. Really enjoyed our night and would definitely recommend it.

A. S.

The owners and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They could not have made us feel more welcome. It was a 40th birthday meal with 20 people, and nothing was too much bother for them. The service was brilliant, and the food was classic Italian fare, beautifully presented. They went the extra mile with everything. When my 3 year old granddaughter told the waiter she didn't like sweet food, he made her up a special fruit salad without us asking. which she loved.

B. M.

My 2nd time at this restaurant first for my daughter birthday and then my wife's birthday and our anniversary food is excellent and the staff are friendly and attend to your every need will definitely be going back very enjoyable night thank you to all the staff cheers

J. R.

Absolutely brilliant restaurant. We use it for family get togethers. Last year they were brilliant after small car disaster made us very late. This year staff were amazing again. Super family friendly as you would expect from a family run Italian restaurant. Made us as parents and the kids feel very welcome. Food was superb. Fresh and traditional Italian flavours. Couldn't recommend this place enough.

k. S.

Fresh food, sunny outside, lovely gin and tonic and the staff so friendly and helpful what I can ask more. Congratulations to all in Qua ♥👏👏food: girasoli pasta with prawns🦐🦐🦐

K. M.

Good food, friendly service. We went in as a fairly large group and you absolutely could not fault the speed of service - it was almost too fast! The drinks. Are quickly and we were offered appetisers before the starters, which were all very nice. The food is generally of good quality and the atmosphere is nice. I’d happily go back, although maybe I’d actually ask for them to slow down service a little next time!

D. B.

This restaurant came up on a search for gluten free options in Glasgow. We had no prior experience of the venue but were absolutely delighted with it. The staff are friendly and helpful, the restaurant was buzzing and the food was extremely good. My wife said it was the best gluten free pasta she had ever tasted. The complimentary mallows for her at the end was the cherry on top.

E. R.

First-class customer service in a relaxing environment and the food is absolutely delicious. The lite bite evening menu is exceptionally good value for money (3 courses for £11.95) and portions very generous. All staff very friendly and attentive and clearly enjoy working in this lovely Italian restaurant. We will recommend Qua to our family and friends and will return next time we are in the city. Thanks for a great evening Qua!

P. M.

This place is our new favourite restaurant in Glasgow. The food is excellent and the lite bite menu is outstanding value for money and the portion sizes are really generous. As well as excellent food the service is spot on. You can tell everybody takes a real pride in their work and it really shows. Highly recommended.

J. M.

What a great place, we were in at the weekend with the kids and the managerial and waiting staff couldn't do enough to make a big deal of the kids. They were welcoming and attentive again especially with the kids. Food was brilliant and the portions so generous that we couldn't finish the mains. There was a range of covers in, kids, couples, young and old so I'd recommended it for whatever the occasion. Thanks for looking out for us Qua, we'll definitely visit you if we're up that way again.

D. M.

Lovely food and good service, the place was busy and the staff were still attentive and polite. Highly recommended

A.

Very friendly staff, portions are massive (but I'm not complaining), food was delicious. Just make sure you're hungry. Had the three course meal for £19.95 and drinks were a reasonable price. We had a table of 16 and everyone enjoyed the food and had good banter with the staff.

X. v. E.

Excellent restaurant! We were welcomed very pleasantly. There is a great choice of dishes to choose from and they are all prepared in Italian style! Nice choice of wines. If you're looking for a restaurant in Glasgow and like Italian, I would highly recommend this one.

M. C.

Fantastic meal. Great wine. Superb stuff. All round great tasty experience

S. P.

Went here for my birthday dinner and had a fabulous time. It was the first time for all of us and the staff are amazing and the food was so TASTY. Our waiter, who looked like Johnny Depp, was honestly one of the best parts of the night. He had a great personality and just loved to chat. Definitely recommend to everyone to visit.

H. B.

Great restaurant, food was lovely and staff were very welcoming. To start we had Bruschetta and for our main course a Pizza. Pizza was on point 👌 When we are back in Glasgow again, we will definitely revisit!

S. G.

Superb food, great service and overall a lovely dining experience. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back soon.

L. L.

Nice atmosphere, friendly personal, generous portions, good wine. But... something wrong with kitchen, we ordered three dishes: risotto was not cooked enough, one pasta dish was overcooked, pasta dish prawns & chorizzo had only taste of chorizzo.
