• Italian • Helensburgh

Riva in Helensburgh is one of the finest Italian and Mediterranean restaurants in town. On West Clyde Street, the Riva dining space is stylish and comfortable which, in a way, reflects the food: traditional, wholesome recipes prepared and presented in a contemporary way. From both the Riva lunch menu and the a la carte, expect pizza, pasta, meat and fish, with each dish featuring only the freshest produce that’s local where possible or imported from Italy. Riva is just around the corner from Helensburgh main train station, meaning it’s pretty easy to get to from wherever you’re based in this glorious part of Scotland. Reservations are essential.

• British • East Kilbride

Visit the handsome restaurant at Crutherland House in East Kilbride and enjoy a wonderful selection of dishes, created with ingredients that are carefully sourced and treated with respect by our team of talented chefs. That’s why you’ll appreciate the quality of the steak cooked exactly the way you want it, whether you’re a ribeye lover, a sirloin fan or just crave the tastiest burger around. All our beef is hung for at least 21 days and our white fish is sustainable – so our Battered North Sea Haddock and hand cut chips is a favourite dish with great provenance, too. There’s something for everyone on the menu so leave the inspiration to us – simply sit back and enjoy a first-class dining experience. If you prefer something more casual, relax in the Lounge Bar and enjoy a drink and something lighter to eat. Both our dining areas are open to non-residents and the stunning countryside views are a bonus.

Very pleasant evening was had by all. We went early on a Saturday night so the place was quiet but still had a good atmosphere. The owner served us & was very informative about all the dishes. He even did 'a special' for one of us when we couldn't decide. Would certainly recommend & will definitely visit agaiin.
