The upcoming Milngavie Road project will replace the much-loved Raffaele's Restaurant, which closed last month, and aims to make dining out fun and exciting. The new Oi Mamma restaurant, which is set to open on February 8th, will feature a flamboyant design infused with friendly Italian hospitality while honoring the strong, extroverted, and passionate nature of the much-loved Italians.
The Instagram-friendly eatery will be affordable while reinventing Italian cuisine in Glasgow's sought-after area with a vibrant space designed to impress guests, with the goal of creating stylish Italian hospitality and connecting with a younger neighbourhood customer. The design will be bold and glamorous, creating a celebratory space that reflects the fun cuisine, signature cocktails, and lively atmosphere of Oi Mamma.
Mixing classic Italian recipes with a modern Mediterranean twist, the menu will take centre stage at Oi Mamma and offer playful, generous and authentic food. Dishes include Nduja Hummus, Sourdough flatbread; Whole Lemon Sole on the bone served with Brown Butter, Shrimps, Samphire, Amalfi lemon and Tagliolini with Pecorino Basil & Creamy Burrata. Every day, Oi Mamma's kitchen will make fresh pasta, and a variety of pizzas will be available, all made with dough that has been proofed for 72 hours to maximize flavour and ensure a light and distinct crust.
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.”
The team behind the new concept 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.
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.”
Oi Mamma 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.
Oi Mamma will open on February 8th 2023 at 151-155 Milngavie Rd, Bearsden, G61 3D Scotland. The restaurant will be open daily from 12pm - late.
