Some of the best pizza you will ever taste anywhere, period. Bursting with flavour with tasty toppings underpinned with a deliciously rich pizza sauce and mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese. The pizza sauce is the best around and really gives the pizza its authentic flavour. Tandoori chicken topping is incredibly tasty and goes brilliantly with the flavour of the pizza. Consistently high quality too. Really cannot recommend highly enough. Outstanding!

Overview
Armando's Pizza at 10 Merryvale Place, Giffnock G46 6AT was a long-running independent pizza takeaway established in 1989, known for homemade pizza sauce and a signature freshly grated blend of 100% mozzarella and 100% Scottish cheddar. It offered delivery and collection (phone 0141 633 1510), weekday meal deals, and late-night trading from 4pm till late seven days a week. As of late November 2025, The Herald and The Scottish Sun report the shop appears permanently closed after ~36 years: Google and Yell marked it permanently closed, the premises were advertised to let as a vacant hot-food takeaway, and no formal owner statement had been issued. Diners should treat it as closed until an official reopening is confirmed; the website may still show pre-closure hours and offers.

Pizza was horrible. Spicy chicken looks like it’s out a packet or frozen. Wasn’t spicy either. The pizza base was terrible and the overload of cheap cheese never helped either. Went down hill. Probably won’t order again after this. Pizza is horrible.
Read on Google MapsGot a magharita pizza they guy tells u to wait in car and they bring it out to u now i know why so u drive away my advice try it before you drive off the base was hard and chewy not nice at all couldn't take it back because we live a wee bit away it wasn't worth going back with it waste of money 😕
Read on Google MapsFirst class cheese pizza and chips again serving a happy family of 6 for years! 10/10 at Armando's!
Read on Google MapsI've been an Armando's customer for many, many years, yet it's still always a treat to place an order for delivery. The Armando's pizza base and homemade tomato sauce is unique to this Merrylee takeaway. If you've not tried an Armando's yet, or want something a bit different, give them a call. (May I recommend the margarita or Mexican pizza and sides of jalapeno poppers and fries).
