Discover Glasgow Restaurants C hris Martinolli runs Glasgow’s oldest family owned restaurant, La Lanterna on Hope Street. Established over 40 years ago, winner of numerous awards and considered one of Glasgow’s finest Italian restaurants, there is no better person to guide you as Chris reflects on his home city of Glasgow. What really makes Glasgow different from anywhere else in Scotland is the cosmopolitan make up of the city, and because of this there are a whole host of different food types to try when dining. Whether its Indian, Chinese, French, Japanese, traditional British or indeed our own Italian specialities, there is a variety in Glasgow that is just not found in other cities.

Over the last few years this diversity has grown, putting Glasgow on a par with London in terms of the rich dining experiences the city has to offer Glasgow city centre itself is a great place to go for sophisticated shopping during the day but even more special for evening dining experiences with restaurants and bars mostly staying open until quite late which allows you plenty of time to enjoy the city.. Our own restaurant, La Lanterna on Hope Street is just across from Central Station, meaning that we frequently welcome visitors to the city, popping in to enjoy our traditional Italian cuisine after a busy day of sightseeing, shopping or following a hectic day at a conference. Because Glasgow is also host to so many fabulous concerts, shows and exhibitions, every hospitality business in the city must showcase what the city has to offer and deliver it to you with the style, quality and service that you would expect from a world leading city destination. Having been established for forty years, we are the oldest family-run restaurant in Glasgow and we hope to continue to serve visitors to our magnificent city for many more years to come.
