My favourite restaurant in the area for both takeaway and sit in! We’ve been going to LL Italiano for years now and the food is always great - beef stroganoff and profiteroles are my favourites, I also love the garlic bread. The service is also excellent!!

Went there for dinner with friends. The food was rather uninspiring and of average quality - I had a tomato/sausage dish which was very heavily spiced and lacking any finesse, while my wife had a dairy free seafood pasta dish which was basically tasteless. Service was really slow - people on an adjacent table who came in after us were served before us - no hint of an apology from the staff; the proprietor seemed more interested in socialising with his friends than in managing the restaurant. Decent atmosphere in a compact space downstairs. Overall - rather disappointing.

Fabulous restaurant, friendly relaxed atmosphere, excellent service and incredible food. I can highly recommend the fillet steak! Can’t wait to go back.

The food was good, the service was excellent but it seems to be for older people. I’m going to go back and hopefully it’ll be livelier the next time.

Indulging in a dining experience at Lello's is nothing short of a treat for the senses. The suave, sophisticated and impeccably dressed owner, Lello himself, has mastered the art of making every patron feel like royalty from the moment they cross the threshold. His attention to detail and impeccable taste is evident in every inch of the restaurant, from the carefully curated decor to the immaculately presented dishes.And let's not forget about the delightful Donya, the Russian waitress who graces the tables with her ethereal presence. She moves with such poise and grace that one could easily mistake her for a swan gliding effortlessly across a frozen lake. Her attentive service and charming demeanor are just the cherry on top of an already delectable dining experience.Speaking of delectable, the food at Lello's is simply divine. The flavors are rich and robust, and the portion sizes are generous without being overwhelming. It's no wonder that the prices are so reasonable; the restaurant truly delivers exceptional value for money. And with a plethora of glowing reviews from satisfied customers in Newton Mearns and beyond, it's clear that Lello's is a standout in the world of fine dining.In summary, if you're in search of an elegant and sophisticated dining experience that won't break the bank, look no further than Lello's. With its exquisite food, impeccable service, and charming ambiance, it's sure to leave you feeling like a million dollars.

Lovely wee restaurant, food is good but a bit expensive. A restaurant for an occasional visit for something special.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!I took my girlfriend and my mum here for dinner last night , to start with a positive the girl serving us was very nice and helpful couldn't fault her she is definitely wasted working in a place like that , starters where bad its very obvious they buy in frozen nothing fresh even the salad garnish on the side of the plate looked days old , then we got our mains very little sauce tasteless horrendous considering it was £16 and to top it off my girlfriends main had a short black hair in her food the three of us seen it so we spoke to the owner and he then decided to call the three of us liar's and say it was string from the parmesan ? he was also very rude and dismissive probably one of the worst restaurant experiences I have ever hadVegetarian options: Terrible
This is the worse Italian restaurant a have ever been in starters where average main was terrible then a found a small black hair in my pasta sent it back with the manger he took it to the kitchen customers can see into the kitchen from the restaurant all the staff mixed the pasta manger came out and said it was Parmesan a black hair was Parmesan the manger was so rude I felt so bad for the waitress she was so nice she deserves to be treated better!! Paid £90 for nothing we eat nothing he made us pay full price for chicken pasta dishes but we only had broccoli as we are vegetarians this is the worse customer service I have ever witness DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!Vegetarian options: Horrendous!!!!!!

Visited on Christmas Eve for a Birthday meal. The restaurant itself was very busy, which made it uncomfortable. There seemed to be more patrons than was safe and not just from a covid perspective. The service was slow and the food was awful. Those who had pasta were served with dry pasta straight out of the pot with a hint of whatever the sauce should have been plonked on the top. The seabass was served with no accompaniments, other than a tiny slice of lemon, a side plate of veg was delivered to the table half way through the meal. The seabass was swimming in a butter sauce and left the diner with an upset stomach. Overall an appalling experience. The quality of food was disgraceful and it was overpriced.
