First Look: Inside Sugo's second Glasgow restaurant just opened in the West End

The new restaurant, which hosts 160 covers, will serve Sugo’s classic menu; 10 pasta dishes, inspired by regions across Italy, made fresh each day with the finest produce.

Located at 8 Cresswell Lane - the old Zizzi’s site just a short walk from the famous Ashton Lane – Sugo’s aesthetic and offering fit seamlessly into the West End landscape. A restaurant that boasts a buzzy ambiance, keeps the hustle and bustle hassle-free and smoothly transitions from day to night. Walk-ins only means the always attentive floor staff keep service as efficient as anywhere; but ultimately, it’s always worth the wait.

With the new opening, however, brings something extra special. Renowned for their regular schedule of pasta specials, Sugo will be introducing specials exclusive to each restaurant. For the team, that means more opportunity to showcase their skill and palette, and for pasta lovers it means more pasta to try.

The opening has been in the plans for a long time now, with fans and locals alike wondering when the day would finally come. With progress kicking into action over the past few months, it wasn’t until very recently that the pasta purveyor announced on social media the opening date as Thursday 5th March to an overwhelmingly positive response.

“This opening represents an important milestone in Sugo’s journey. “says Tony Conetta, Director at DRG.

“What started as a single restaurant with a very clear vision, to serve exceptional fresh pasta, has grown into something much bigger, thanks to the support of Glasgow.

“The West End is vibrant and proudly independent, so it was important that this restaurant felt authentic to both the area and our brand. We’re proud to be continuing to invest in the city’s hospitality scene and excited for what this next chapter brings.”
