Amalfi Glasgow is a family run Italian restaurant and bar at 148 West Nile Street in the city centre. The business traces its history to 1943, when it was known as the Lido Cafe, giving this relaxed trattoria unusually deep roots in Glasgow dining.
The kitchen draws inspiration from the rustic cooking of the Amalfi Coast. Minestrone, bruschetta and Caprese salad offer familiar openings, while king prawns cooked with garlic, chilli, tomato and basil bring a brighter coastal note.
Pasta is available in classic preparations such as Bolognese, Napoli and carbonara, alongside a wider choice of Italian mains. Scottish steaks from the grill connect local produce with the trattoria format, served with vegetables, potatoes or chips according to preference.
The central location makes Amalfi useful after shopping, before an evening out or for a leisurely family meal. Wine and drinks from the bar complement the food, while takeaway service provides an alternative for diners who want the same Italian flavours at home.
Address: 148 West Nile Street, Glasgow G1 2RQ, Scotland
