Review Borsalino Restaurant - Peterculter

Beautiful place with excellent service! Seafood pasta was my favourite! You can tell attention have been paid to detail of every aspect of the restaurant

We celebrated my mother’s 70th birthday there last week and it was absolutely fabulous. Great service. Great atmosphere. Even had personalised cake delivered and an in-house singer. Absolutely recommend this place!!!

Last night me and my partner treated ourselves to a midweek date night and we are glad we did. We moved to the area almost a year ago and are very disappointed we did not try Borsalino sooner, it was fantastic. The staff were extremely helpful when asked any questions by myself or my partner during our visit. Highly recommend the lamp chops, they were cooked to perfection and the mint sauce was lovely. We were very happy with our experience and we will be back soon.

Lovely atmosphere, service good and food was delicious. Highly recommend.

Wonderful gem of an Italian restaurant set in a absolutely beautiful location. The food was very authentic, each course was a delight, and the service was attentive without being over bearing. Thank you all so much for a great evening, and the Vin Santo is lovely :D

Absolutely fantastic meal served by lovely professional and friendly staff. Atmosphere is exceptional and the gentleman who sang was amazing and added to the dining experience. Would definitely recommend.

We often forget about Borsalino as it is in Peterculter and we live in town, but this is to our detriment as it is certainly one of the best Italian restaurants in the Aberdeen area. Long established, it is popular and you will usually have to book. The car park is a bit restricted but it is on the main road making walking to it inadvisable. The food is always fantastic. We both had starters and pasta for main course: all dishes were excellent. Dinner for two with a couple of beers and a coffee came to a little over £60, which we considered reasonable.

Lovely food. Staff are very attentive and polite. Very clean and a great atmosphere. Looking forward to going back! A great place to go for a top notch dinner or even in the afternoon for a bottle of wine and pizza!

Excellent food in a beautiful and cosy environment with kind, caring and professional staff.

This was the first time I’ve been to Borsalino for dinner - it won’t be the last. From the moment you step through the front door - in fact just before you step through - to the moment you leave, Borsalino is an excellent experience. We were greeted warmly and special attention to our daughter who revelled in the attention. Waiting staff were all very aware of the menu, specials and wine recommendations. The starters were excellent. We had Calamari and a Caprese salad. The quality of the ingredients speak for themselves. Mains were Meatsball, Saltimboca and a custom pizza. All were exceptional. The Afagatto, Tiramisu and Gelato for dessert were all excellent. The wine was also excellent and it was great that the wine was decanted. The singing from one of the team was a great addition and really made the night. There was nothing to fault about the evening at all. Had a nice chat with one of the owners (I think) when leaving. One of the best meals we’ve had in recent years and will definitely be back. Thanks Borsalino team

We discovered this place by accident and completely fell in love with it. Lovely interiors, friendly staff and the food... OMG the best risotto ever. All together amazing. My favourite restaurant at this moment ❤

Always good food, friendly staff with a Tenor who sings beautifully. Great atmosphere, comfortable and cozy. You won't be disappointed.

Just perfect service in a charming dining room. Delicious pizza and pasta and the tiramisu is 10/10. Fantastic for a family celebration.Will be top of my list for my next Italian craving.

Amazing lunch! We really enjoyed it and the children's pizzas are huge! Very good value for money. The interior is lovely and relaxing. Very clean and sanitary with lovely staff.

Hello friends family,travellers world ha i like saying that as i hope people are seeing the reviews of great places ive dined at and Borsalinos in the village of Peterculter is no exception step on in dinner is served! There is something so special about a place that's family run and been there for over fourty years this is the case with Borsalinos Italian restaurant started by papa Franco in 1976 and now run by the lovely Lucca and his amazing team with the excellent Lewis as manager and front of house, the great Hamish on the bar and the lady's serving the food, its a family affair here and you really get that feeling when you enter the place. Tonight i was here on my own and was given a warm welcome by Lucca, Lewis and the crew and was seated at my lovely table well fillet steak decorated in a quiet part of the restaurant to peruse the menu, i was hungry and ready for some good food and good food is exactly what i received! Looking over the menu all the dishes all stood out in their own way with traditional favourites to other dishes you might not have had before, it all looked very tasty! So i opted for the buffalo mozzarella caprese starter and to follow not a choice i would often make when dining out italian but i went for the filetto al chianti fillet steak with a red wine sauce and mixed vegetables i was ready to eat and sat back in the lovely surroundings and waited for my food to arrive. The caprese salad arrived lovely pieces of beef tomatoe, served on a great plate, large pieces of delicious creamy buffalo mozzarella with fresh basil atop and aa lovely balsamic glaze at the side, a really wonderful fresh flavoursome start to my meal and i enjoyed it very much excellant! Onto my main the beef fillet and what a plate was placed before me folks big pieces of absolutely perfectly cooked fillet of beef medium rare exactly as id asked with the creamiest crispy on top super soft in the middle potatoe fondante with a side of roasted vegetables was my mission and to be honest everything complimented everything on the plate the sauce was so rich with a delicate taste of chianti wine and the fondante and vegetables just added a lovely myriad of flavours on my palate yet again from the Borsalinos chefs this was careful, thoughtful cooking and i enjoyed it to the very last bite the sauce just enlightening everything else that was there for me excellant cooking a most enjoyable main course bravo! Sitting back stuffed the lovely Lewis came to my table and offered the dessert menu oh i was full but how could i refuse! so i opted for the panacotta with raspberry coulis mmmm i love panacotta and Lewis sat down for a wee chat and told me that Borsalinos moto was still the same, serving authentic Italian food to regulars and newcomers alike! all the food produce they serve is locally sourced and they cater for all food intolerances adding to that the fully stocked bar the seperate area which is stunning for private functions and the fact they are now serving brunch from 11 till 2 you really get the vibe that the folks at Borsalinos are really making the effort to give their customers a great and varied experience i cannot reccomend Borsalinos enough and would like to thank Lucca and Lewis and the brilliant staff for a really great night, so if your in the village of Peterculter stop by for genuine Italian hospitality and a true taste of Italy a restaurant that is really moving with the times best wishes Barry Allan MCG

Wonderful & authentic Italian restaurant with excellent food and top notch friendly & attentive service. Upmarket and stylish atmosphere. Visited on the weekend for a special occasion and will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

Our first time eating at Borsalino in Culter and they exceeded our expectations on every level. The service was superb, from the moment we walked in until the moment we left and the food was amazing. Looking forward to our next visit.

Really wonderful Italian restaurant. Staff were incredibly polite, we didn't have a booking but they found us a nice spot. Food was lovely with a great range of choice. We couldn't manage desert as the portion sizes were very generous!

This is the best Italian I've visited for a while. The daily specials of chickpea and bacon soup and lobster ravioli were absolutely delicious accompanied with great wine, efficient & friendly staff and the surprise of an Italian tenor with a fantastic voice. Can't wait to return!

Reasonable food however has gone downhill so much since Franco had it. Extremely rude manager and as a result will not return.

A fantastic restaurant with amazing food. Beautiful interior and lovely staff. Can't wait to go back �

We had an absolutely fantastic meal last night for my dad's 65th. The service was fantastic and the food, exquisite! Thank you for a lovely evening. Can't recommend highly enough!

Lovely restaurant great food and staff very attentive will definitely go back 🥂

Amazing food, especially the risotto! And a brilliant atmosphere, including a wee song 😊♥️ Would definitely recommend and will certainly be back!

Have been going to the Borsalino for decades now and always find the staff very pleasant and friendly! It's been a family restaurant from the beginning and has now passed down to the next generation! Good luck, Luca and family!

Just eaten a phenomenal take away pizza. Fresh & delicious toppings, beautiful dough and reasonably priced too. We will be back soon!

Had a fantastic meal here, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was brilliant. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Can't wait to come back
