Roberta's St. Vincent Street: Newest city centre Italian announces opening date

A brand new Italian restaurant and cocktail bar is opening next week in Glasgow's city centre.

Far from your typical ristorante, Roberta's Glasgow will open on Thursday September 9 and plans to 'confidently take unfussy, authentic Italian cooking and bring it to life in new uber stylish city centre surroundings'.

The venue will specialise in Neapolitan pizzas made in a bespoke wood fired oven, with pasta dishes, grill-inspired plates, Italian desserts and a New York inspired cocktail bar.

Pizzaiolo brothers Ciro and Massimo Potenza have joined the team in the kitchen. The Naples natives, who both now live in Glasgow, will showcase their craft, unique skills and techniques to create authentic Neapolitan pizza - served directly from Roberta's wood-fired oven with a characteristic charred, smokey crust.

A large wine list featuring legendary Italian labels as well as interesting new names will also complement the restaurant's focus on the Italian lifestyle and cuisine.

A range of tables, from intimate tables of two through to the restaurant’s generous window booths with seating for up to eight, cater for a wide range of dining requirements as well as a stunning private dining area that can seat up to eighteen guests.

The venue boasts a long bar for late night cocktails and aperitif.

Roberta's will be open daily for lunch and dinner set within a stunning 100 plus cover space that manages to feel very intimate, spread across the bar, main dining room and private dining.

Soft- opening is from Thursday 9 to Sunday 1 September and the restaurant will officially open with full capacity from Monday 13 September 2021.

Toni Carbajosa, Director at C&C Restaurant Group, said: "Roberta's is Glasgow's newest playground. An extensive cocktail menu, wood-fired pizzas, energizing pasta dishes and sharing platters, the freshest seafood and shellfish, and a special aperitivo bar will be available.

"Our restaurant will be upbeat and vibrant and will offer a new style of Italian dining in the city".

Roberta's Glasgow is located at 140 St Vincent Street Glasgow, G2 5LA. Open daily from 12pm - late.
