A family Italian, the way the Merchant City has loved since 2008.

A Family Run Restaurant

Three generations,
one table.

Amore opened in September 2008, in the heart of Glasgow's Merchant City. Eufemio Perella and his son Romano have been the driving force ever since, building it the only way they knew how. Proper Italian cooking, in a room you are meant to linger in.

Eufemio's wife Iolanda and daughters Santina and Daniela shaped the early years. Today Romano runs Amore day to day, holding the same standard the family set on the first night.

Amore. The Italian word for love, and the idea behind the kitchen ever since.
