Over 40 years experience serving Cardiff! From one restaurant to three ! It’s in an amazing spot opposite the opera house ! With amazing seating outside overlooking a beautiful fountain ! The food is Italian cooked to tradition with traditional products! Nothing better than an Italian chef ! The staff are amazing giving a service to perfection! Enjoy the pictures & just think while your in Cardiff why not ! The food just falls off the fork & flavours explode in your mouth leaving you full !
Difficult one to review. When actually dealing with any staff they were great but when you wanted to get their attention/speed of service it was a challenge. Very disappointed to find that the menu online was not matching the menu provided. We were particularly keen on some pasta dishes that weren't there. Even more disappointed to find there was no mention of alcoholic milkshakes even though online this was a big selling point for us... Starter was very nice and drinks were good. Main meal was average and quite pricey all round personally. We had a nice time but wouldn't return.
Amazing! Food was excellent and served in decent portions; service was superb - the staff were very attentive, polite, and friendly; the restaurant was beautiful. Bit weird at first as the front door is by the kitchen but there are stairs and a lift up to the dining area. Definitely recommended if you want a decent Italian.
Seated outside under an orange parasol, excellent, friendly service.
Delicious meals, so fresh and full of flavour.
We'll definitely be back!
My family and I went for dinner as a New Year’s Eve Eve meal. The restaurant had around 5 tables all evening so the restaurant was not busy at all. Our waiter, an older chap, took our order and seemed very impatient as my father hadn’t decided what he wanted. Instead of giving us extra time he decided to wait there and stare forcing my father’s decision to be rushed. We ordered olives to start and while we were still eating them they got taken away. We had bruschetta as a side with the maid meal and while we were in the middle of eating this it got taken away. I had to ask 5 times for water and when we called another waiter over to complain he said it’s just because he is Italian and also new. As my parents travel regularly to Italy several times a year they explained it can’t be because he is Italian because they have never experienced this bad of service there before. The waiter proceeded to respond without an apology to us and said we are insulting him.
Now the food was very good and we enjoyed every meal we had but I wouldn’t go back nor would I recommend this place to any one because of the service being so bad.
Great service and fab food, had a small problem with the wine and that was sorted with no fuss and everything else was perfect. 👍🏻😊
Delicious food, fantastic atmosphere, first class service. Supports the children’s requests. Supplied little colouring books and pens for the children to play. First class venue,
This restaurant was beautiful, as was the food. The staff were lovely and very helpful. It was my partner's birthday and I'd mentioned it to a waitress, but didn't ask for any special requests. At the end of the night, we asked for our bill. 5 members of staff came over with two limoncello's and sang happy birthday. It was a lovely touch and really made our night special! Highly recommended!
