Best restaurant in Glasgow! Food, service and ambience and especially the amazing cakes!

Can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. Food is of the highest quality. The staff are attentive without being obtrusive. Coffee and cakes are magnificent. read more

I dropped in to this deli on a walk toward the Botanic Garden and was pleasantly surprised. It was buzzing with folks eating in but I was just there to see about grabbing something to go. The deli takeaway counter was pretty reasonably priced with an assortment of salads, pizza, sandwiches, lasagna, etc. I ended up getting a green bean and snow peas, orange, mozzarella, hazelnut salad with honey mustard dressing for £6 that was surprisingly delicious! Heavy on the beans, a bit light on the butter lettuce that was on the bottom. But it was flavorful and filling. Dessert and pastry display looked amazing with huge strawberry tarts and other treats starting at £5. Lasagna for takeaway was £8. Lots to choose from! read more

We had a selection of starter plates, everything was absolutely delicious! The service was fantastic too!

We've been to Eusebi a couple of times for brunch, but this was the first time we'd tried it for an evening meal. It's usually really busy, so I was surprised to get a 6pm slot on a Saturday at less than 24 hours notice. A little early, but hey..! As usual, it was the seafood items that attracted us, so we both started with the tuna carpaccio with shaved fennel and samphire salad. A delicious appetiser. For the main event, Herself chose the Gigha halibut, although we had to ask for it without the 'lardo' - I had a vague recollection that 'lardons' meant pork fat in French cuisine, and here they turned out to be bacon fat. Not for us, thank you! I went for the swordfish with roasted aubergines - with some reluctance I have to say as aubergines are probably my least favourite vegetable. However, they turned out to be fairly edible (that's about the best aubergine compliment you'll get from me!). On the side, we went for potato wedges and some white beans in horseradish gemolata. Both very tasty, although I was hard pushed to detect any hint of horseradish in the beans. The dessert menu was far too dairyfied for both of us; however we were allowed to chose something sticky from the upstairs counter, and Herself duly returned with some white and purple cheesecake-looking confection with pink chocolate and a wafer on top (don't ask me what it's called), and an almond crescent biscotti thing for me. All washed down with a nice white from Puglia, one of my favourite wine regions. Coming in at a 3-figure sum for the two of us, it wasn't the cheapest dinner, but we did have 3 courses and a bottle of wine, and a lovely evening to boot. Who's complaining? read more

Four stars for a Scottish-Italian style restaurant with a lot of instagram aesthetic. The marble tables, the checkered floors, the play on country and modern... pretty cutesy chic. I had the Languiano pizza, a water, and a cappuccino, and spent about £14, which is a little steep for quick service, but you are definitely paying for the location. The food was tasty. Interesting combination of Parmesan, potato, and pesto on a white pizza. The cappuccino was delicious. They even offer you chocolate flakes to top it off... Yes, please! I find that the device industry in Scotland is waaaay too lax and not nearly as attentive as in the states, which is why I can't give them 5 stars. The staff is nicer than in most restaurants I've visited in Glasgow, so it's definitely worth a try! read more

Stumbled upon this place on our walk through Glasgow near Kelvingrovr Park. Saw it was very busy and we knew it had to be good. We had the Eggs Energia and Pork Casarecce and we thought both were fantastic! Excellent choice of beverages as well! Will definitely be going back! read more

Continuing my poor day for culinary experiences on Easter Friday we went to Eusebi. Now our elder son says this is one of the best Italians in town, great food etc and we were really up for this Sadly it was not to be for me...struggled to find something on the menu to eat at all, had to have everything explained as the menu doesn't make a great deal of sense if you've never been before...and then Ended up with whitebait...lots of...soggy, nothing crisp about them...so not that appetising and they remained with me for longer than I really wanted Followed by a pizza...through lack of anything else...I don't really want to do pizza as a plan B On the other hand there are the most amazing desserts to look at and the Montepulciano was acceptable Those who knew what they wanted and were looking forward to it enjoyed their meals It wasn't expensive at £106 but that was hardly the point. Not a patch on Osteria Del Tempo Perso. Go there read more

Eusebi is a real Glasgow institution. They have been serving up traditional fresh homemade Italian cooking and produce for years. But, if you have ever been hesitant about visiting the original store in deepest Shettleston, fear not as the owners have opened this absolutely stunning new and shiny deli in the heart of Woodlands. The new shop doesn't fail to deliver either, continuing to sell great REAL homemade Italian food to go, such as rustic style pizzas, meatballs in ragu, roast chickens, grilled veggies and so on. It's a perfect stop if you are late in from work and fancy a quick, healthy take away. They also have a fantastic selection of Italian cakes and pastries but these are usually completely sold out by the evening, so get in quick! The new store now also doubles as a restaurant. It has a really great, laid back cafe feel, like somewhere straight out of Italy really. I popped in with a group of friends and not knowing what to eat and being my usual famished self, we opted for a pretty huge selection of dishes. Obviously on the cards was gonna be pasta, and I opted for a prawn Bavette which was tasty and powerfully garlicky, but it was quite a small portion for the (perhaps) hefty £14 price tag. My chums chose more wisely, for example the meatball maccheroni was sublime, was a more generous portion, packed a better flavour and was more fairly priced. Other dishes I tried were a Roman Style Pizza "Pinsa". The dough was fabulous, kinda like a squashed ciabatta, perfectly leavened and crispy. At £11 for the Pinsa Calabrese, (mozzarella, potato, onion and sausage) I thought again it was a little steep, after all you can get a whole pizza in places like Paesano for half that price!! Nonetheless it was delicious, even although it was slightly over cheesed for my liking. Being a self confessed Aubergineoholic I could not overlook a delicious Caponata side. Caponata is basically a stew of aubergine, tomato, olives, capers, pine nuts with a sweet and tangy vinegary hit. It was fantastic and reminiscent to what I've had in Sicily before. Our other side of Fritto Misto was again very small, and the batter wasn't quite right so probably not worthy its £6 price tag. I have absolutely no doubt that this place will go for strength to strength as they suss out exactly what the West End clientèle wants. I visited just a few days after opening, and if its this good now, I am certain its gonna be a 5 start joint really soon. This is a great addition to the Italian dining scene and once again its fantastic to see places selling REAL Italian food rather than your boring Spaghetti Carbonara's and the like. So its a big thumbs up from me and a grazie to Eusebi :) read more

I was in need of a hot drink and a little something extra after a long walk through the park. This was my first visit here and after placing my order I was offered a seat next to an open fridge, as if I wasn't cold enough, there wasn't a welcoming feel from most of the staff here apart from one guy who checked my table, and politely asked if l would like another coffee, Well done to Archie for that. I had the donut with a latte, it was all nice, I could see a real nice and tempting display of food in their fridges & a chef preparing fresh pasta. Overall 5 star service from Archie who was checking the tables, even though he hadn't served me at the counter, he made up for the other staff that where avoiding the customers. read more

Sooo I'm gonna give Eusebi Deli a 3 because my experience was just ... Erm ok? So Gian and I came here to warm up after some fun in the snow today. The place wasn't busy at the time so we got seated quickly and were given menus. As usual so no biggy. Pros 1) I ordered the Caprese pizza which was delightful and the caffe latte was really nice too! Gian had a soup with lamb broth which he really liked, especially to warm up the body. Loved the ingredients in all the food on the menu! They have really nice selections of cheese and sliced meat from Italy (pecorino is my fav from Tuscany!) Cons 1) coffee took like 15min to arrive to our table. Y'all weren't even that busy! 2) we were served by 3 different waiters = confusion of orders. 1st was a guy who came to check on us then disappeared without informing anyone to attend to us, 2nd woman came to us after I made an unimpressed expression directed to the staff members but she had her head in the clouds for sure, and the 3rd one, (the saviour) was the most attentive one who apologised for any confusion. 3) When we ordered the food, Gian originally only wanted the soup of the day which was between squash and Tuscan ham with beans. He ordered the Tuscan ham soup and we waited like 25 minutes for it. Why was soup taking so long? Apparently the 2nd waitress failed to tell us that the soup finished like 3 hours ago -.- so the 3rd waitress (that we had to approach and get attention from) finally informed us of what's available, which led to gian ordering the lamb broth (geez). 4) no sign or info stating that we cant order food from the counter which is annoying cause I wanted a focaccia that wasn't on the menu for table service! In conclusion, food wise, Eusebi Deli is great! The ingredients are good and they actually hve nice things from Italy! Staff-wise, y'all gotta manage it properly man. Why do you have 3 people serving a table of 2 customers? Why are half of your staff members clueless?? Why aren't you prompt with updating information about the availability of your food or the dynamics of your service? Other than that, it's just ok. Not gonna go rushing back or anything tho read more

I heard mixed reviews about this place, but as a fellow Italian I felt it was my duty to come try this place. It is a lovely restaurant to look at with all it's Italian décor, and a lot of thought has been put into the style of the restaurant. It looks and feels special. For a Monday night it was also quite busy, so the restaurant had a nice atmosphere to it. Now, I've heard that the service can be a bit temperamental, and would have to agree with those reviews, but I found the staff extremely friendly, and they knew everything about the specials and were enthusiastic about it. Initially, I found the service a tad slow as I was standing for ages waiting for a table I booked only to find it was the empty table I had been standing next to the entire time. But after that it was grand. So, the food. I found the menu relatively easy to understand, but I can see why a lot of people would struggle to understand what the ingredients were. I ordered the spaghetti with walnuts and cavolo nero (kale) pesto, with a side of rosemary potatoes. They were cooked really well and the rosemary dressing was really fresh, and very strong! The spaghetti was lovely and al dente, and the pasta sauce was delicious, but I found it a bit too salty for my liking, which made it a bit more difficult to eat. Especially when it came to the end with leftover sauce - it just had to be left! My friend had ordered one of the special pastas with pork, and he too found his dish very salty. The bill equated to £15 each, which for a plate of pasta, potatoes and a diet coke I found dear but not over the top expensive. Probably slightly more expensive than a lot of places, but it is genuine Italian food with dishes you won't find in most restaurants. Overall, I had a really pleasant experience and would happily come here again as there is another pasta dish on the menu I would love to try. I would recommend this place for a nice special dinner, but not somewhere you could come all the time if watching the bank! read more

Very hip Italian deli with a collage of Sofia Loren on the wall. My friend works across the street at the University and he said it is his favorite lunch spot. We tried two of their Roman style pizzas, the Primavera which had artichokes and beans and we also got the sausage and Italian broccoli. Very fresh and quality ingredients! The crust was rustic, a little burnt on ends but it didn't bother me. I liked that the pizza wasn't too salty, it let you taste the flavors of the ingredients. The calamari was also very light and delish. We brought some desserts home for later. The cheesecake was light and lemony, not like thick New York cheesecake. I also liked the eclaire, strawberry tart and cake. Yummy! Very good lunch spot. read more

Came in here the other night after walking past it countless times. Did arrive with a little bit of trepidation after reading some mixed reviews but have to say I left quite impressed. Inside the decor is pretty cool, there's a nice looking deli counter at the front where they sell a lot of fresh breads and pizza. You can tell you're in an Italian restaurant! As this is a deli, you can sit in or take away. The take away options did look tasty and I'll be sure to give them a try at some point soon. The sit in menu is fairly traditional Italian stuff, pizza, pasta and some nice mains. One plus is the menu isn't laden with options, which I always find a good thing and an indicatior of quality. I opted for the lasagne to find they had ran out! But there was a tasty sounding special I had instead; maccheroni gigante with a pork ragu. The pasta was great, nice and al dente, the way I like. The pork was very tasty if a touch on the salty side. The service I fount to be very pleasant and friendly. I see a few people here have had some mixed experiences, I'm guessing this may have been around when it opened, classic teething problems and all. Overall the bill was £15 which is a touch on the steep side, though you do get quality for the money. I'll definitely be back here to try more on the menu, just as often as the bank account lets me! read more

My trip to Eusebi was for a post work meal with a special few. My colleague had decided on Eusebi, so we took a stroll from the BBC over to the Deli with a few beer pit stops on the way. When we arrived we were taken to the basement in which there is more evening dinning friendly seating, as oppose to the sit in cafe upstairs. The menu was quite complicated and didn't offer up any descriptions. This meant that the waitress was having to explain in detail what everything on the menu is, which I didn't really like. I wan't it to be clear from the menu what everything is - isn't that the whole point of them? Anyway - when we did figure out what everything was - their certainly is a lovely selection. For the starter we decided to share, between the 4 of us, the Parma selection which was a trio of prosciutto (aged, cured in red wine, preserved with balsamic) with foccacia and a melon jam. This was delicious, no doubt about that. We had to order more foccacia as despite knowing it was being shared between 4 of us - they only gave us 3 slices. But a fresh basket soon arrived and it was wonderful. We also shared the Octopus salad upon the recommendation of the waitress. It was my first time trying octopus and certainly not my last! The tomato and olive gave a sharp taste and went fantastically well with the octopus. For main I decided on the Toscano pizza pinsa. A flat bread with Italian sausage, potato, onion, chilli and mozzarella. I hadn't realised this was a 'tomato-less' pizza until it arrived - and man it really could have done with some tomato sauce. The flavour combination was delicious, no doubt about that. But it was dry, really dry. I struggled to finish it and offered it up to my colleagues. They too said it was crying out for a tomato sauce base. The italian sausage was pretty much none existent also. Don't get me wrong though it was nice and not lacking in flavour. The cake selection is fantastic. They all look amazing! I decided to take a cannoli home with me and I was really glad I did. I devoured it with my other half the next day and it was smashing. The best crunch, filled to the brim with vanilla cream, finished with a dusting of chopped pistachios, bitter chocolate pieces, and candied cherries. Lavely! The bill came to £135 - that was for 2 starters, 4 mains, 3 bottles of wine and 2 deserts. The best thing about this place was our waitress, Roselyn. She was attentive, patient and impressively knowledgable. She is a real credit to this place. Everything else was good and nice but it was really missing that wow factor for me. Therefore I struggle to rate any higher than a 3. But I certainly think I will be back for coffee and cake! I need to have more from the impressive cake cabinet. read more

I really like this place. The staff are lovely, very friendly and helpful - every time I've been in I've had my son with me and they chat away to him, put up with the odd toy being thrown across the room(!) or offer to pop his buggy or trike in a store room out the way. The food on display is nothing short of a feast for your eyes! Fresh meatballs, lasagne, sandwiches, stuffed bread (AMAZING!!) and a cake counter to satisfy the sweetest tooth. So far we've been in for coffee and cake, a quick sandwich lunch and takeaway treats from the deli. I enjoyed every mouthful. The deli prices are also very reasonable at £3 for a chunk of lasagne & £2 for a stuffed bread. I can't wait to go for a sit down meal and try the hot food. I don't think they've got any highchairs yet so I'm afraid they're losing a star from me. read more

I haven't eaten much Pizza since the epic Yelp Pizza Battle but this was something else entirely! I love this place :D It only uses and serves geniune Italian food. The staff were all really helpful and friendly. Yes the place was bustling but we got a table with no issues. It was a lovely, sunny day and our table by the big window gave the place a wonderful summer feel...despite it being March. We ordered our drinks, it's table service, then deliberated over the extensive menu. There are some really unusual, but pricey, options; like squid ink pasta! I decided on the Calabrese pizza with some Rose Lemonade. It came out quite promptly and I was far from disappointed. It looked amazing! Tomato, Mozarella, Spicey salami and burrata. Everything was fresh and delicious. The bread they use for the pizza is unlike any I've had before, and I think I've found my favorite pizza! It was light and crispy, yet doughy like a Focaccia bread. I managed to finish the whole thing but it was a push. It's too small to share without any other dishes. We then decided to push the boat out and get a selection of pastries. I tried their Gluten-Free coffee muffin. It was a plain muffin, with the perfect amount of icing and just a hint of coffee. I would have been happy just with that, but I sampled a few bites of others too! The mini doughnut filled with nutella was actually divine. Seriously. The only reason this place is getting 4 rather than 5 stars is the price. It is a little dearer for the individual meals than you'd normally expect for the food, but the quality really does make up for it. Their deli looks very interesting too! The pizza, sandwiches, chicken meals, meats, and cakes are all for take out. It might not be somewhere to make regular, but as a treat every so often, count me in! read more

Great looking deli that is still packed out, almost a year after it has opened. The food looks excellent and is very tempting, in particular the pizza and, of course, the cake selection. Sometimes cakes look a lot better than they taste, but not at Eusebi. Cakes were amazing! The staff in Eusebi are so friendly and genuine, the owner always has a few words to say and remembers you on each occasion, which makes you feel like a really valued customer. Well done Eusebi, keep it up! read more

Early evening meal on a Saturday before heading to a gig in Kelvingrove Park. Great ambience inside and lovely service from the young waitress who couldn't do enough to help. Meat sharing platter was beautiful to look at and was a joy to dive in to. Burrata mozzarella was as fresh as it gets, Roman style Toscano pizza base was light and toppings tremendously tasty, and the gelato affogato was an epic ending to an enjoyable meal. I'll definitely be rushing back. read more

This restaurant has been on my 'places to eat' list for some time now and I finally had the pleasure of dining there last night. I had looked up the menu the day before and had done the necessary googling of ingredients as the menu is quite hard to understand, however the food did not disappoint. I order the Napolitano pizza with creamy mozzarella and cherry tomatoes and my comrades order a variety of dishes from the pizza and pasta selections...all were very impressed. The layout of this places is slightly deceiving as it seems much smaller than it actually is. We had booked ahead (which I would suggest doing) and were seated downstairs at a big round table and had a constant stream of water from the friendly waiters. I can definitely understand the queues Eusebi deli attracts and would highly suggest adding it to your own restaurant bucket list! read more

Atmosphere was warm and comfortable as well as a most hospitable wait staff. We came from all over the globe to celebrate our holiday vacation. This is a must stop even the desserts were delicious.

Sightseeing in Glasgow and stopped a stranger on the street to ask for a good place to eat in the area. She got excited to tell us about Eusebi (deli) Italian restaurant. Authentic Italian food. We were given history and background on the family and restaurant which was fun to hear. We were both thrilled with the appetizer and pizza and wine. The servings are generous and the food delicious. I saw pasta dishes coming out that looked yummy. I brought a dessert home and enjoyed with coffee later in the evening. Great outdoor patio seating if the weather is nice. read more

I don't know why but I was a bit skeptical of Eusebi when it first opened up (maybe cause I used to work in Sonny and Vito's and suffer from natural suspicion of their competitors) but I have to say I really like it! One of my best pals and I have made a habit of breakfast dates, since as soon as I'm in the library for the day it's pretty impossible to get me out again til bedtime, so I have to be forcibly wrenched from my bed an hour early to keep any sort of social commitment! We had some americanos which were small, but actually really nice! It's Italian style coffee so it doesn't have that nuttiness that you find with other independent coffee shops (papercup, pena, the steamie, artisan etc). Usually I find this kind of coffee either too watery or too acidic, but these were just perfect, a nice strong cup with good balance. We liked them so much that we ordered another two! We were planning on just having a coffee, but with the americano you get served a teeny square of custard filled pastry, and it was so good that we decided to order one and share! It was absolutely delicious. I don't think I've ever had a custard filled croissant before, and boy have I been missing out! Lovely, authentic flaky pastry and a beautifully creamy creme patissiere inside, topped with icing sugar. It was totally divine. I'm not sure if they make their pastry from scratch but I think they must do, as this tastes totally fresh and flaky in a way you just don't get with frozen stuff. Our 4 coffees and pastry came to 10.55 which i thought was pretty damn reasonable for a West End joint! They had lots of reaaallly nice looking salads, breads, pastries, tarts, and all the lovely things you'd expect from an authentic Italian deli. They really do have an impressive array of homemade goodies! The staff were lovely, very smiley and helpful and made us feel really comfortable. I'd say the standard of service here beats anywhere else for coffee on Gibson St. My only complaint was that when it comes to paying it's not really clear where you should go- I went up to the counter and then a waitress came and asked if we wanted the bill after I had paid. It's not terribly clear whether or not it's table service or you order at the bar. But that's a minor wee niggle and I'm sure if I had asked they would have made it clear, I'm just shy haha. All in all I'd say Eusebi is a fantastic addition to the area, and we've decided to make it a regular spot for our breakfast dates! read more

Been to Eusebi before and was really excited to come back last Wednesday for a dinner with few friends. Sad to say but what a disappointment! I have always been a fan and enjoyed every single visit, but last night few things went wrong, service was very slow and also the food wasn't at its best. And most of all people, their portions are so small! Probably i didnt realise about this before because i only had their Pinsa before, or popped in for a coffee and cake, but yesterday it was impossible not to notice it. Now, I understand it is quite a classy place, presentation of the food need to eye-catching and stuff, but honestly, apart from their Pinsa which i find enough filling, the rest is just too little on the plate. Come on guys, it is still an Italian restaurant, you guys should know we like to eat and we want our plates full!! And also, been a classy wee place, their prices are quite high, so at least I expect a little bit more, that's all. For starters, we ordered two boards of Parma Selection and one of Cheese - nothing wrong with this, all really tasty and fresh and accompanied by a delicious melon jam and focaccia. As main course, most of my friends wanted Salsiccia and Friarelli Pinsa, but they had run out of friarelli at that point, so they couldn't make it, so with the disappointment of my friends, they had to order another kind of Pinsa. Other orders were Squid ink Tagliatelle, Chicken Valdostano and I had the Malfatti with sage butter. Now, my plate was delicious, but my god, 5 dumplings are just not enough! I was sooo disappointed (and so hungry even after my main course!). Same comments from my friends, food was nice but the portions were not satisfying at all. Still hungry, we decided to order a dessert - I was excited as i basically tried almost all of them before! I went for the Black Forest Cake, and the other orders from my friends were tiramisu, cannolo, black forest and eclair. The waiter also brought us two slices of brownies to compensate to the small portions of the mains (yes, we did complain about it!). Unfortunately, apart from the Tiramisu which was nice, everything else was just dry, hard, and probably from the day before. Such a disappointment. In conclusion, i hope last night was just an hiccup and hopefully this is not a standard dinner at Eusebi now, will surely give them another chance, but also in terms of staff i think they should get more experienced people - when we were looking to order desserts we wanted to ask few information about one of two of them which we were not sure what they had inside, and we stood in front of the glass for 10 minutes with at least 3 staff not able to help us because "that was not their section" (!!!). read more

We'd seen Eusebi materialising on Park Road for months and finally decided to pay a visit for lunch today. We were slightly late for our booking and as usual it was my fault - but they were still waiting on us and seated us without any issues. We were asked for our drinks order as soon as we sat down - the waiter floated around while we sat down - I would have preferred if he had left us to get settled and then came to take our order. We ordered an americano and a cappuccino. The coffee is great - usually when I drink coffee I feel a bit sluggish after it, but I felt fine after this one. I had the Calabrese Pizza and Ewan had the Maccheroni with N'duja. My pizza was probably the best pizza I have ever tasted. The salami was great and I somehow managed to finish all of it off. The base was beautifully crispy and the ingredients went well together. Similarly, you could taste how fresh Ewan's pasta was and the portions were plentiful. We got some more coffee after our lunch - although the cakes looked absolutely delicious, we were way too stuffed to eat any more. There were a few things I didn't like about Eusebi - I didn't really know what some of the items on the menu were and it would be good if there was just a little explanation on the menu as to what they are. They could also put the coffee on the menu too but those were minor and didn't ruin the experience. Eusebi is a little pricy - at over £30 for two main meals and four coffees - but it's worth it for a treat. read more

I felt it was fitting that for my first review, I should choose somewhere new to the west end - so please welcome Eusebi Deli as a west end newbie, recently opened at 154 Park Road in the Woodlands area of the West End. We arrived at 1 pm and the place was heaving. There was no clear system for queuing for tables vs queuing for the deli and unfortunately this led to some confusion with people who came in after us getting seated first. The owner was extremely apologetic about this when the mistake was pointed out, and did offer us free prosecco (damn it was a work day) and we were seated at a makeshift table, which was a little cramped but fine. The menu was attractively written in part-english, part-italian, which brought an air of authenticity but did mean I wasn't entirely sure of exactly what was on offer in some cases. I am sure, though, that if needed the attentive staff would have explained it to us. We plumped for the Parma Selection Platter and the Classic Artisan Cheese Selection Platter, and shared them. These were described as either a starter for two or a main for one, which I would agree with. The Parma Selection included three different types of parma ham, served with a melon jam, which was fresh, unusual and delicious. The Cheese Selection had three different cheeses and was served with the most amazing tuscan, fig and nut torte which was crunchy and soooo yummy. Both were served with focaccia and side salad. We really enjoyed sharing these as a lunch but I would say that if you were not sharing two different platters between you it would be quite samey- you would either be eating just a plate of cheese or a plate of parmaham. What I felt was missing off the menu was a mixed platter where you could get a wee taste of everything. We were sitting near the deli counter and the food displayed there was mouthwatering. Offers for take-away lunch included rolls with porchetta and roasted peppers, and focaccia topped with fresh mozerella and tomatoes. They also do take-home meals for you to heat up for your dinner, such as stuffed peppers or yesterdays lasanga (we all know it tastes best the next day). The pasta is made fresh on the premises everyday and by peeking at other tables the pasta dishes being served looked simple, traditional and delicious. As we were on a work lunch break we got coffee and cake to take-away. My latte would have been better if a little stronger, and unfortunately Colin's cappuccino was a little burnt. Colin took our cakes home and we had them as an after dinner treat and what can I say they were amazing!!!!! The cannoli was crunchy on the outside with a dusting of pistachio. Unfortunately, we didn't get the name of the other cake but it basically looked like a bagel but tasted like a blend of croissant and donut, filled with coffee icing, topped with almond flakes-we really did fight over that one. Overall it scored a 4/5. For a more detailed scoring please see my full review on www.westenddaze.com read more

This has been on my list to try ever since Glasgow Food Geek posted pics. I was not disappointed one bit. We did book and it was a good thing we did. The upstairs is beautifully decorated and the deli counter and cake counter looks amazing. I'm a sucker for a lush good display and this place had it. Our greeting was warm and friendly. We were seated promptly all the while the gentleman (one of the owners?) was chatting away to us. He was attentive and explained how things worked. Also being a new mum my first thought was feed the baby! The gentleman got me a pot of hot water and our order was taken quickly. I went a bit overboard. We ordered two platters for the table: the cheese one and the classic one. Both were visually stunning and delicious. My mum had the cream of mushroom soup - creamy and thick served with focaccia. My sister went for the duck, Hubby went for a spaghetti done with chilli and I had the ravioli. As well as a pizza calabrese to share. We all loved the food. The pizza had a crunchy base and the tomato sauce was lush. Hubby barely shared his spaghetti as it was that good. My sister loved her duck and the ravioli disappeared. Service was attentive and so friendly. A bonus is that all the waitresses kept cooing over our little one too. Which kept him amused no end. Hubby and sis went for the lemon and raspberry tiramisu. It was bursting with fresh lemon flavours but it lacked the raspberries. Didn't ruin it but we were wondering what happened to the raspberries. It's not a cheap meal but so worth it. For 4 adults it was over £30 per head however we did asp order cakes to go so prob £25 per head without alcohol. Had to be sensible - can't drink like I used to pre baby. read more

See all

This is the place of my dreams!! Driving through Woodlands I decided on a quick pit stop to check the place out. It's pretty small inside but the selection of fresh foods is huge and I could literally order one of everything. There are huge selections of breads, slices, pizzas and pastries and a seperate section full of delicious looking sweet treats. I opted for a takeaway slice of the 'Pizza'. It's more like a thick slice of ciabatta style bread with toppings served cold. I chose the Parma ham and buffalo mozzarella and it was honestly one of the nicest thing I've eaten in a long time. Crispy, chewy ciabatta with a gorgeous tomato sauce, crispy baked on cheese, dressed leaves and then topped with the Parma ham and mozzarella it was soooooo nice!! And at £3 for a huge wedge, I wished I'd got 2!! I had it with a latte which was gorgeous and really reasonably priced at £2.50, proper strong Italian coffee which wasn't masked by all the milk and foam. I can't give 5 stars as I stood for a long time waiting to be served. The lady at the counter clearly seen me waiting as she smiled, but then went on to serve the customer behind me who she obviously knew personally as they had a long conversation. I eventually had to ask where I go to get served and she said 'oh, here!'. Felt a bit in the way whilst waiting as the place is so cramped.... wasn't great service and for that I have left out a star. Hopefully I'll be able to give 5 stars if I go back! read more

Eusebi Deli - Pizza slice (Cold) - Delicatessen Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

Best Italian food in Scotland by a country mile reminds me of Home , authentic Italian not basterdised as per the norm . Fresh pasta great so was dessert read more

Pretty average fare, pizza was nothing special and a little expensive. Italian sausage was very bland which was disappointing. Service was good, but menu could be a bit more descriptive. I wouldn't hurry back, it was just all right. read more

One word OUTSTANDING !! A real Italian , Fresh pasta was outstanding , I had Ragu with fresh egg pappardelle . My wife had the roman pizza , brilliant crisp and non soggy , apparently really healthy and the first Gluten Free product made by the Romans . We followed by tiramisu and gelato .I also have to say Service was outstanding ,waitress knowledge really good at explaining each course. I read some previous reviews and could not fault apart from having no Music , but atmosphere was made up of noise and bustle . I think its the one true Italian out of Rome , and not your usual Italian food made for the British who have no culinary idea ......Brilliant cant wait to go back read more

The owners are incredibly friendly and the food is amazing. The best Italian food I have ever had in Scotland, sensational! I'll be back again and again. read more

Amazing food, great prices (for what you get) Francesco is a bit of a jewel. I live in Sweden and wasn't convinced about having Italian in Scotland, oh man am I happy I got forced into the place! read more

Have only been here once but was impressed by the atmosphere, the decor and most of all the really helpful friendly staff. I'll definitely be back. read more

Giovanna and her brothers have recently opened up this delicatessen in Gibson Street adding to the one in shettleston road where nona Gina still works and is still the best barista in the east. What do you get when you go here? Apart from a hug and a smile as you walk in through the ever busy door you get authentic Italian meats, breads homemade pastas and there own take on a pizza. You will want to try everything and you can but you will need more than one visit. Great food and great staff all well trained. Why not finish off with a coffee and a homemade donught. Just make sure Giovanna doesn't over feed you read more

As a first time reviewer I have to agree and disagree with some comments below. I frequent loads of places in Glasgow and the West End for many years now and this place has raised the bar BIG time in all aspects of whether you want coffee and cake, or Gelato from their home made counter, down to taking food home from their deli counter ( What a choice!) The Eusebi's have not held back in this venture, you can see loads of detail and they are years ahead of their time with the food they have on their menu, all made on site, thats why the place is rammed with so many staff. I can see why the others have commented on chaos, I too have experienced this when trying to get in, but Italy and the Italians are chaotic in any case, so to me it adds some value and entertainment. Plus, they are new and it does not go like clockwork from day one. I was just in this afternoon and already seen three TV presenters and two footballers that everyone will recognise. I hope they hurry up and do they delivery menu soon which was spoken about today by Pauline the waitress who was lovely and Boyd who was managing the front door. I hate to mention to staff, but there was a weird waitress there called Suzie Robertson, I mean weird, kept on talking about Vegan foods, what are you doing there silly girl! Im glad she moved on, waste of time...... If you want to see all kinds of food, places in London, Milan and New York would be hard to match this place when it comes to display of freshness. Not everything you eat will be your cup of tea, but after being here so many times, the one policy I like is that if you dont like something, they will change it and give you something else, excellent service from the new comers. read more

Very disappointed, after coming in on a Saturday afternoon to pick up a takeaway lunch, to find out that an Italian deli has no pastas to offer. What is more, the counter was almost empty and a roll i decided to buy was old. I was left with no food after all. No doubt really nice food but not sure I will be coming back. read more

An unexpected delight tonight. First time visit on spur of moment and my wife and I had outstanding meal. Good and service were exceptional.....we will be back read more
