My family visited Glasgow for one week. After a long international flight, we checked in to our nearby hotel and then started walking the neighborhood looking for a place to eat.We noticed Mora and thought it seemed like a good choice. We were wrong about it being a âgoodâ choice - it was actually an EXCELLENT choice! Despite wanting to sample many different restaurants during our visit, we wound up returning to Mora for a second meal. One night we wanted takeaway for a quiet night in our hotel, so we came back a third time but learned they do not offer takeaway ( carry out). Itâs in an old building but is beautiful decorated and maintained. It has a very clean and modern feel, superb service, very fair prices, and fantastic food. I particularly liked the pizza and the lobster ravioli was exceptional! If I ever return to Scotland I will eat here!

Reviewed By macedonboy
Came here with friends for dinner. We'd already make a reservation, so had no problems getting a table. It was a Tuesday evening and it was busy. Inside, there's a pleasant Andalusian theme that would not be out of place in the real city of Malaga itself. The specials board had about five items, all written in Spanish. Which I thought was a little strange given that the average Glaswegian isn't known for their linguistic skills. Since no one could read Spanish, we just ordered off the menu and settled on fritters, patatas, vegetarian paella, a mixed vegetable stew and mushrooms. The mushrooms were pretty awful, which no one could finish off. It tasted of brine, like it had come out of a tin. But everything else was really nice especially the paella, flavoursome, and well cooked rice, thoroughly cooked, soft and slightly firm like paella should be. The patata with a spicy sauce was so nice we ordered another portion.After the food, for some reason the waitress apologised for the slow service, which was absolutely not the case. The service was good especially considering how busy it was.

Had yet another brunch at celinos and as usual it was tasty. Even with a kitchen let down happening, the staff handled it well and left us informed of what was going on! My partner had the full breakfast with tea and I had the mozzarella French toast and latte. All lovely, I'm sure we will be back again!

Good value quality food nicely served. Fresh bread on the table and reasonably priced house wine. Its located in a basement, not the most stylish of places but then its not intended to be. Service is good, the front of house Lady works impressively hard. I hope the establshment is doing well. I'd certainly go again.

Dinner on Saturday night was the biggest anti-climax ever having looked forward to it all week.Unfortunately it was me who picked this restaurant for our Saturday night dinner, something Iâll probably never be allowed to live down now.My partner and I arrived, both male - but not like that should matter in this day and age - made ourselves known as we weren't greeted, to then be looked at with confusion as if we shouldn't have been there. Seated and left to our own devices (for a good while), without anyone to take an order for drinks and in the meantime whilst we waited patiently, 3 other tables all of whom arrived after we did, were seated and served with drinks on their tables too. Not a good start to the evening and certainly not giving that good first impression which we were expecting (shop front appears to be a perfect facade - masking what's really hiding inside).Finally someone came to serve us, asking what we would like to eat; reminding them we would like a drink first however yes we have waited so long we now know what we are ordering to eat too. Probably best to order whilst we have the opportunity because who knows if they would've came back? Furthermore, with impatience profoundly growing on us, we werenât prepared to wait any longerâ¦Starters arrived, nothing spectacular, still no drinks on the table. Starters finished and still no drinks to be seen - adding to the disappointment, and thirst.Eventually our first drink arrived followed by the main course. Very bland and lacking flavour, could honestly pick up a better pasta dish in ready meal form at the local supermarket.Didn't finish the meal, with no one approaching us during the course asking how the food was. Although, once the forks were put down and napkins strewn over the plates, I think the member of staff who took our dishes away could see the look of dismay on our faces after what had been - lightly put - a terrible experience. Offered a free cocktail each, I assume because of how blatantly obvious it was that we had been neglected throughout the meal? We were keen to leave however "no its fine" said several times over, wasn't convincing enough or accepted as an answer and we were egged on to stay for that one last drink. Still payed the full price for the bill though with the amount emphasising how not worth it the meal really was. Seriously grudged it and felt cheated, with Glasgow having an abundance of beautiful Italian eateries that actually are worth the money. Named Scotland's best Italian restaurant 2016? It is clear to see why that award hasn't been upheld to date. Seems like this restaurant is more style than substance?Ultimately I won't be back and certainly wouldn't recommend to anyone, maybe would to my worst enemy though.Thanks :)We're incredibly concerned and saddened to read your review and learn just how disappointed you were during your visit. We truly pride ourselves on giving our guests the most authentic, comfortable and enjoyable Italian experience here in the West End, so we couldn't be more disheartened that we let you down so drastically on this occasion. We're incredibly sorry for the continued delays in service you experienced during your meal - this is absolutely not reflective of our service so we'll be investigating this fully with the staff working that night to identify why this could have happened and why so many things slipped through the net. You absolutely shouldn't have had to chase up on drinks or remind our staff of anything, and for this we apologise. When you informed us that you did not enjoy your meals, we did try to address this with you both on the evening with the offer of the complimentary drinks, which at the time seemed to be received positively, so we're further sorry that we picked this up completely incorrectly. No other issues were mentioned to us at this time, so we are disappointed to now learn that this wasn't the case, as we would have appreciated the chance to be able to address this while you were still at the restaurant.We realise that the whole experience has left a very bad taste in your mouths, but we do hope we can stress that this is not indicative of the true La Lanterna experience you should have had. After winning our first award in 2017 (Best Newcomer), just after opening we've been lucky enough to be nominated once again for other awards in 2018, and this year have been nominated for Best Restaurant and Best Pasta at the upcoming Italian Awards, which we feel truly reflects out high standards.Please do not hesitate to email us on [email protected] if there's any further feedback you'd like to provide, we'd be very appreciative of it.Thank you once again for sharing, and sincere apologies for your unsatisfactory visit.Best wishes,La Lanterna

I visited today and wanted to come on straight away and write a review. Fab from start to finish, staff were very attentive, helpful and always smiling. The food was really fresh, you can tell the pasta is homemade and staff were happy to accommodate any changes to things. Nothing was too much trouble to any of them. The king prawns were amazing and definetly worth a try if you like seafood! My son loved his spaghetti! Iâll be back definitely and Iâve already said to friends and family. Coffee at the end was fab too. Best Italians in Glasgow. Thanks again, Carla & Luca
