Basta Pizza Bar — Restaurant in Scotland

Lovely little pizzeria in Glasgow's West End. We had a great evening with friends, enjoying the wonderfully fresh food. Our party had two vegetarians and we were all satisfied with the variety of food available.

I always like to support local businesses and will...
