An absolutely great place! We went in to have coffee and ice-cream and were delighted. The staff is very efficient and friendly, and the ice-cream is the absolute best in Glasgow (I had double cream, scottish tablet and toffee. Outstanding!). We definitely plan to come back. The only drawback is the very loud music. Everything is just great. There is a takeaway counter with cheese, pastries, deli,..
Celino's is the best Italian food in town, ordered their traditional breakfast full Scottish and it was yummy and delicious spaghetti aloo scoglio and celino's margrehta pizza was soo awesome
U know sometimes you enter a restaurant and you get good vibes, nothing to do with lavish interiors or grand entrance or an attractive attendant flashing that smile, nothing of all sorts but just plain good vibe that food is going to be good here, that's what i felt when i stepped in Celino's
We started with Macroni with a Mascarpone and red cheddar sauce baked in the oven - Classic Mac and cheese what we call it here, the cheese was still bubbling when the dish was brought,i seldom judge a dish by the looks but man this was something different. Must try a definite must try
For pizzas we decided to go with Ortolana but replaced aubergine with mushrooms.
The pizza was great, the toppings were generous but then again excess marinara sauce made the pizza soggy... well so be it !
After much debate we zeroed in on Nocciaola sundae and we were not disappointed with the outcome
Celino's is one of the places which i am yearning to visit again as there were so many dishes i wanted to try but my appetite gave in, would have loved to try their cold rolls and panini
Beautiful food, lovely service and great atmosphere. Highly recommend the lasagna and muscles. Good choice of wines and sumptuous fresh bread.
Celino's is a lovely little place.
Have been here for dinner a few times and tried some of the pasta dishes they have always been really nice. Service has always been really good and staff are always happy to recommend a wine to go with your dish.
Also, this is one of my favourite places to go for breakfast, the full fry up is Very good, it will hold you off till dinner time!
If only they were a little bigger and had more tables!
Simply the best Bolognaise. Mrs Guidi AKA Lena of the Vale Cafe Tollcross lives on in the spaghetti bolognaise here all I can say is give it a try.. A plate of Tuscany in Alexandra Parade I can honestly say better than anywhere in Glasgow or Italy. If Mrs Guidi were here today it is the only way there would be any competition. X
Staff Lunch 23rd February. Ordered take away from Celinos for our staff lunch today (35 guests). Food/Service was fab - in addition to the great food a big thanks to the staff in Celinos who kindly replaced a whole tray of Lasagne at no extra cost which was spilled by accident! How kind was that!
GREAT FOOD!. Just want to thank Celino's for the great food they provided for our staff lunch today 23/02/12, it was delicious and would definately recommend to my friends and family.
Amazing authentic Italian Deli/Cafe & Restaurant. We initially just went in for a coffee, that turned into having a full breakfast which was absolutely superb especially the Stornaway Black Pudding! After being shown the Evening Menu we decided to come back for dinner and I can honestly say that it was one of the best Italian meals that my wife and I have had. The staff were really helpful and this added to the overall experience. Not only is this an authentic Italian deli, but also a welcoming daytime cafe and a first class restaurant in the evening! I would recommend this to anyone who is fed up with the Italian chain restaurants that are all over the city centre and not very good....fantastic. Give it a try you won't be disappointed.
Dukan Diet at Celino. This place is simply amazing. I normally get frustrated at eating out as I am on a strict no fat diet. Celino is living proof that even if you are on the DUKAN diet which is tough, you can still enjoy good food and delicious flavours.
I'm going to recommend it to all that are on the Dukan as in this respect it's absolutely with no rivals. The staff is most helpful and will take care of your dietary needs. Not even Jamies does it that well.
I've eaten at Celino's thrice this month and it's one of the most authentic Italian foods that I have ever eaten! Each experience has been amazing and the portion size, food and service has been on point. Definitely recommend!
Lovely place. Excellent food. Very busy and loud so good for large parties. Not a fan of the lasagna, but when you've had the best (italian mama) nothing comes close. Think you can sit outside too. Deli part delish but expensive!! Worth it tho.
Great atmosphere and fantastic food. Both the Gamborini & Lasagne were fantastic.
Cosy Italian spot in east glasgow with not only nice dine-in and take away, but also the perfect place to buy some yummy Italian goods. We got a ciabatta and a panini and they were so good! Defined would recommend, and i’ve we had longer in Glasgow, we would defined have visited more often.
have been a customer for over 23years and have previously written a review regarding your fab scrambled eggs which were the best !
However in Monday my son got us a take away and my eggs and toast were more like a battered up omelette I just assumed the chef had taken their eyes off and forgot to stir until it had set causing them to break it up. However on Wednesday I sat in for a full vegetarian breakfast with scrambled
eggs and again it was greasy and like a omelette broken up not your usually fab quality at all the waiter who removed my plate didn’t ask if I enjoyed the breakfast nor did the waitress who took my payment or I would have informed them no and the reason why.
Needless to say it has put me off returning

A very delicious stop on our tour of Scotland! We were too early for lunch, so we had breakfast! So delicious! Very impressed with the food, coffee, and service!
Nice Italian place with freshly cooked food. It has delie on site so you can stick up on italian cheese, olives cold meats or drinks. Menue is big with pasta , pizza , meats and two fish choices.
All starters and mains are freshly cooked. It does lack some seasoning, salad on the plate was dry with no dressing which is disappointing. Pizza base is fantastic, freshly maid, thin and so soft but crispy , very authentic. The toppings can be refined but generous. All drinks available and great vine selection from Italy. Tables are small and good, not a fine dining. Toilets definitely need some attention. They were converted into storage room with paper all over the place and not a pleasant site. Service is attentive and fast, and fair. If they make a mistake they will rectify it. Prices are on the higher end for the overall experience and area, but food is good . It can improve on presentation and some attention to detail
We booked for a 21st, party of 25 (ended up 19 due to last minute cancellations -sorry).
We arrived at 7.30 and the tabled was set and reserved waiting for us. Our table waiter was spot on (fantastic humour and very attentive) - told us he got a promotion - to 'chairperson', which he then insisted on helping some of the party in to their seats. His humour and many other jokes was spot on and made us laugh lots. This set the tone for the night. The food tasted great, portion sizes fab and we received amazing service - outstanding. The staff went above and beyond and nothing was a hassle. Children in the party were kept amused with plenty of drawing and colouring activities so no any wee moans or groans about being bored. Celino's allowed us to bring our own cookie birthday cake to 'toast' the celebration and they even went above and beyond by cutting it up and serving it out without purchasing desserts. Thank you for giving us a wonderful evening x We certainly will be back x x
Excellent pasta and super lovely service. The place was recently refurbished and looks great! The Gamberoni pasta is delicious. We have been a few times and always have the best time, fantastic Italian restaurant in Glasgow.
Great restaurant, food, service, attention and value for money. Relaxed atmosphere. We return often. Thanks again for a great night especially as it was my son's 18th birthday. See you soon.
