The 2013 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £5.95 (+p&p).
This review is taken from the current (2013) edition.
This lively Italian family-run bar/bistro takes its name from the street running through the heart of New York’s Little Italy. It’s not themed, but subtle shots of Manhattan break up otherwise minimalist décor. The venue is split, one half casual bar that spills over to a south-facing outdoor space – the ideal hotspot to muse over great continental beers on tap. Flipside you can enjoy outstanding globally inspired dishes whether for brunch, lunch or dinner. Worth setting the Sunday alarm for are the light crêpe-style pancakes with yummy caramelised banana. Vegetable tempura is a hit – airy crisp outer, al dente crunch inner, with home-made sweet chilli dip, while a main of tender roast chicken breast is stuffed with tasty chorizo bites and served on subtly spiced five beans. Eggs Benedict doesn’t disappoint either – generous bacon strips, a sunshine yellow soft poached egg and silky smooth hollandaise trigger a smiling nod of satisfaction.

Down under - Glasgow's South Side
10 Sep 2009
The West End might shout louder and jangle its designer bracelets more ostentatiously, but for its many residents, the gigantic, sprawling mass of the South Side is the true heart of Glasgow. As many local historians and geographers have observed…

Very disappointing. Rude manageress and cold main courses made sure it was an evening to forget.
Can't stress enough how awful our meal was. The first meal out I've had with my husband in over 6 months and to have it ruined by someone who can't accept when a mistake has been made (she argued that the food was hot). Would strongly recommend one of the other, better alternatives in the area.

Brilliant bar, have eaten there loads of times. Service, although it can be a bit slow occasionally, is always very pleasant and thoroughly professional. Food is well presented and always really nice. Reasonably priced too. Would definitely recommend.

Visited Mulberry Street with my wife for a romantic meal after reading the List's review above.
The meal started well with a pleasant starter and the waitress was very friendly. However, the mood soon turned sour when I had to send my steak back for further cooking. The clearly frustrated manageress brought the steak back and banged the plate down in front of me with no apology.
From this point on, it was clear that we were being rushed by her. We were further stunned at the speed with which she presented the check to us; no sooner had we finished our mains than the tray with the bill was again banged down in front of me with not a word spoken. There was no question of whether we wanted dessert or not.
Our night was unquestionably ruined by this incident, and therefore I would urge seeking an alternative venue for a meal in the Shawlands area.
