There’s a “wonderful buzz” around Sugo owner Paul Stevenson’s city-centre pizza joint – also with a West End spin-off; cooked in artisan-built, wood-fired ovens imported from Naples, the pizzas are “exceptional”, while a “limited menu ensures quality” – and is rounded out, in any case, by “always amazing specials” (e.g. pancetta, roasted violet potatoes and fior di latte).

“You don’t have to go to Naples” to find “great, reasonably priced pizza and excellent ice cream”. This “very buzzy place in the centre of Glasgow” is “setting the standard for great, no-frills pizza”. There is a second branch in the city’s West End, and owner Paul Stevenson also runs pasta specialist Sugo.

Dough proved for up to 48 hours to satisfy those Neapolitan pie puritans are the draw to this “very cheap” and accordingly “very busy” pizza pitstop with city-centre and West End branches; they also run a pasta-centric three-year-old sibling, Sugo, in the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Herald Building.

“I’ve been back more than 40 times, which says it all!”. These “truly excellent” and “really buzzy” pizza-stops in Glasgow’s city centre and West End are “really hard to beat” – the dough uses both yeast and sourdough and is proved for 48 hours for maximum Neapolitan-style authenticity. In August 2019 they announced a new sibling, Sugo, to launch in the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Herald Building, specialising in fresh homemade pasta.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
