A gem of an Italian restaurant tucked in an alley. This place serves great food and wine! Such a huge variety that we ate here every night during the Open LOL! Great service too. Reservations highly recommended as regulars know this is one of the best place to eat in St Andrews!

I love Italian food and have tried many restaurants in the UK, some fantastic and some not so much, however, Little Italy is up there near the top.

It’s lovely being greeted with a friendly face and attitude from the staff, before munching on your complimentary bread and sauces, choosing a drink from the extensive menu all while soaking in the great atmosphere.

Sure there may be a few people around you talking about golf, but once you are tucking into your lovely food, you’ll soon forget all about that and imagine you are in the Italian version of St Andrews instead.

Our chosen meal was ravioli and we loved it. The sauce was amazing, probably the best I’ve had in a restaurant and the garlic bread, it’s so tasty and cooked to perfection.

Tbh we booked again in the same week just to make sure how good it was the first time wasn’t a fluke. It’s wasn’t. This place is perfect and is topped off by the limoncello shot at the end of the night.

I had probably the best pasta of my life here! The smoked haddock mixed with creamy tomato sauce was to die for. The portion sizes are very generous, but I definitely finished it all 🤤

We stopped here for a lovely lunch, the service was exceptional and the food was delicious. We enjoyed a starter to share, mains were lasagne (amazing), Rob had chicken with salmon and prawns and he said that was a combo he hadn’t had before - thoroughly w joyed it. Washed down with a couple of rose wines and bottles of beer. Hope to dine here again soon. X

The lovely restaurant looks low key from the alley but is full of energy inside. We did not have a reservation but were lucky to be seated at the seats near the bar.

The decor is full of taste, same as the food! The service was tentative. Will definitely come back again.
