A new Italian restaurant, Oi Mamma, is set to open in Bearsden on 8 February replacing Raffaele’s Restaurant, which closed last month. It is the first Italian focused restaurant brand from entrepreneurs Amalia Colaluca and Joe Lazzerini – the team behind The Loveable Rogue. Since 2020, they have opened three restaurant concepts in Glasgow and the surrounding areas.
The new restaurant has re-imagined a new interior concept for Italian cooking in Bearsden, and work is currently underway to completely transform the 80-seat restaurant with bar space.
Oi Mamma Director, Amalia Colaluca said, “Oi Mamma, a loud and bold Italian eatery that serves a ‘new look’ for the neighborhood, will open this month. Our family-friendly restaurant will be vibrant from the inside out, providing local residents with a new place to eat and drink”
Head chef Giovanni Di Camillo said, “We aim to honor the team’s traditional family roots and warm Italian hospitality while also celebrating the much-loved neighborhood’s personality. Our menu will be simple and flavourful, with classic Italian crowd-pleasers and a celebration of Italian produce”.
