The BEST two meals we had while touring Scotland. Two, you ask? It was so good the first night we…read morewent back for seconds. AND it just so happened that our taxi driver, Jim and his wife have date night at dal Patino every Thursday night. Between 5 of us the first night and 7 of us the second night (we invited Jim and Barbara to join us) we definitely tried the majority of the dishes. Click on the following link for the full menu http://dalpatino.co.uk/menu/a-la-carte/. Massimo, the maitre'd and server was amazing. They actually recognized our voice when we called for reservations the second night. Reservations are recommended as this place is small and quite busy. The food is fantastic! Quite possibly the best Italian I've had to date. We tried appetizers, main dishes and desserts. These three are at the top of my list: Crostini Calabrese Pacherri Gamberi, Asparagi E Pancetta Gnocchi Al Trionfo di Bosco If you go because of this review tell them the 5 Americans from Hawaii say Hi!

Amazing pasta too and the chef was stellar. Strongly suggested

The kitchen actually allow you to split entrées; my friend and I had 50-50 where we actually took an entrée and he had half a plate of one thing have to put another and I had half a plate of one thing and half a plate of another because we couldn't decide and so they split the plates (it's just pasta sauce easy) but who else does that?

I imagine there's more on the menu that we would like. The pizza bases were thin and crispy. The tomato base was tasty but I think that might have been where they lost a bit of an edge. If you ask me it could have done with a little bit more of a tang. The cheese and toppings rounded it off for a great tasting pizza. I've read reviews about their delivery taking terribly long but we literally live over the bridge from them so decided to collect. So maybe I would hesitate if you're planning on a delivery and suck it up and go and pick them up :)
