It's hard to judge the atmosphere as we arrived right at the opening time of 3pm and we were mostly alone apart from another couple who came in for pizza. Helensburgh can be quiet in the colder months anyway.We were able to chat with the owner and our meal was really good. We both had a minestrone soup starter and lasagne main. Both were excellent. I'd go as far as saying the lasagne was the best I have ever had. Not too heavy, just perfect and really tasty.Not ridiculous prices either.Definitely recommended

Ate here tonight with my mum. Food was amazing. I had risotto primavera, arborio rice with roasted vegetables and my mum had the calzone padrina which was stuffed with ground beef, pepperoni , onions, chilli, rice and cheese. We also shared a garlic focaccia which was cooked perfectly, light and crispy with plenty garlic on top. My mum had a panacotta for dessert and she said it was beautiful. This will definitely be our new favourite place when we stay at our caravan. Can't wait to try more of the menu. They also had a specials board with a good selection of specials. We had 2 soft drinks and the bill came to £43.40 which I think was excellent value for money as the portions were definitely not an average size. Thank you to the lovely wee waitress who served us with a smile and knew the menu inside out without having to ask chef about dishes. Great addition to your staff. Definitely be back soon ?

I had the absolute pleasure in eating in this little gem of a restaurant on Saturday 29/7/23. When we first walked in I wasn't sure we'd made the right decision in booking the Mira Mare - how wrong I was. The staff were amazing. I requested something slightly different to what was on the menu. After checking with the chef this was no problem at all.The food was amazing and the can do attitude of the staff was great, nothing was too much trouble. Their interaction with other diners was lovely to see too, especially the elderly single diners.Keep up the good work!

Disappointed. But ticked the box. I had the lobster ravioli, based on comments in another review. Quite forgettable tbh. My partner had the beef stroganoff, a strange dish and possibly the same sauce my ravioli was in. Their pizzas are excellent, possibly pipping Padrone by a fractionbut that's whwre we'll go in future. Good service by the one waiting staff but then only 3 or 4 tables were occupied, odd then that a couple of smart guys who arrived at 8.30 were turned away. On a Saturday night in Summer??!! We are local and hoped to make this a regular dining option but that also happened to us, around 8 pm one weekend evening. They obviously just don't need the business.

Absolutely stunning food for 4 adults. All 4 of us were delighted by what we ordered. The best takeaway meal I've ever had.

Shared Mozzarella frizza with rosemary focaccia, excellent. Ravioli with lobster really good. Strawberry desert great. Sangiovesi red and rose very pleasant in carafes. Just don't be in a hurry but you wouldn't want to be.

Lovely staff, they were pretty busy but the waitress was quick to serve us and the food came fairly quick as well even though the restaurant was full
Lovely restuarant, great food. Friendly, entertaining staff. A must if you like good food

Excellent restaurant, great service and amazing food, cannot recommend highly enough, far superior to some of the larger ‘chain’ restaurants in Helensburgh, can’t wait to return!

Hands down the best pizza in Helensburgh, make this one of your stops if you're visiting!!It was so good that we ended up coming back a second time in the same day and will absolutely be making Helensburgh a future holiday destination JUST FOR THE PIZZA HERE!!!Try the Mira Mare pizza, it absolutely will not disappoint, such an amazing tangy flavour; it might be my favourite pizza in the UK!

I'd consider myself a bit of a pizza connoisseur and these guys make top notch pizza's. Will definitely recommend, I'm sure the other food options are fantastic too. Great service too!

I had been here before and found it quite friendly and the food was really good, this visit didn’t match up. Despite only 1 other table having diners it seemed a hassle to accommodate us, service was slow and didn’t seem that friendly, food was ok but very small portion sizes. Just wasn’t a fan on this visit
