Avellino Italian restaurant in Herefordshire, County of

One of the most expensive 30 mins of my life. If you're looking for fast fast then forget McDonald's, Avellinos will have you in and out in no time. Bear in mind you'll be more crammed in than the drive through on a Saturday afternoon. We had 1 sip of our drink before our starters were severed and hardly had time to put our cutlery down before the main. Speaking of the food, if you like creamy pasta sauce with peas floating in it then go for the "minestrone" but don't order any fish dish after as it will be smothered in the same sauce. The spaghetti carbonara was just oil and over powering smoked ham. We expressed our disappointment throughout and after but no discount was offered. I'm not looking for a free meal, just a nice meal and a nice experience.

Staff attentive, great food good value , we went on what turned into a really busy Sunday evening but they still pulled out all the stop, being fully attentive to everyone, wish I lived closer

We had a lovely meal here for my dad’s 90th birthday. The food & the service were excellent. It was an enjoyable and relaxed evening.

Very very busy , looks booking essential however service was fast , Goats cheese mushrooms superb , and the Gorgonzola ravioli simply incredible, Quality beer and wine, Everyone loved the meal which is a feat in itself with us, Superb , top marks

Best Italian restaurant I've visited in over 5 years. The duck is fantastic, and the food in general superb!

Great food, reasonably priced. Friendly staff

Have passed this restaraunt many times and it always has people in so thought Id try it. Service and food were both excellent (main courses a little small, but quality 100% and piping hot), will definately be returning.

Booked for a large table for family including 2 children and a baby in a pram with 2 dietary requirements too ( Gluten free) .We were so well looked after! Nothing was too much trouble! Food was excellent! We had everything from fresh fish, pasta ,pizza,calzone and steak between us all ,it was very good . Good sized portions, freshly cooked ,nicely presented and tasted delicious!

Nice experience in Avellinos. Served quickly, and efficiently. 0 complaints on the food. Got good beer on tap. Toilets nice and private, lock in full working order. Do ask for the chilli oil as it is a very tasty extra. Great for large tables.

9 of us had lunch and we all thoroughly enjoyed

We didn’t book and were pleasantly surprised to see how busy it was mid week. The staff were super friendly , leaving just the amount of time before asking us re drinks food etc. We just ordered mains on this occasion and the portions were generous. My friend had the duck and when we were in our hotel having breakfast the following morning, we got chatting to some other guests who had also eaten at Avellino and they were raving about the duck too. Throughly recommend for a good value , really enjoyable meal with lovely service. Well done the Team Avellino

Really nice. My family has never been here before, but I think we'll be here again! If you're looking for an authentic Italian experience which is reasonably priced, than this is it. Best Italian restaurant in Herefordshire!

Really nice place to dine. I could have eaten a little more (I was hungry) but I'm not going to knock any stars off for that.

Had a wonderful lunch here with my husband. Amazing food and really good value for money. Staff very friendly

Great food and good value if I'm honest . Found it by chance for lunch and didn't fancy a Weatherspoons. A wee bit dearer but traditional fare and the most polite staff. Nice atmosphere. Would love to return if nearby again in the future.

We found the restaurant by chance and stopped for 3 course lunch. Friendly and helpful service, lovely food

Great food great friendly service

Arrived on a very wet monday evening suprised how busy it was but was shown to a lovely table, plenty of space but great atmosphere. great menu and service. food was great and very reasonably priced. would recommend.

Went here for are Ruby anniversary I had the pork and I can't tell u how good it was it melted in your mouth my wife had the sea bass with prawns and mussels and she loved it believe me the food here is top class

Wonderful experience and a delight to spend my birthday here . Everyone is friendly and accommodating through the restaurant . Food is amazing and you just have to order the Tiramasu . On observing the way the restaurant is run is just amazing. No one was turned away , if no booking was made they made space for you . Considering a Monday night it is clear the restaurant is well worth the visit , Will be back for sure

I must say that the food is good, the staff are very kind, excellent value for money, I highly recommend taking a look

Top for food service and atmosphere. But make sure you book always busy..

Amazing food, the nicest service I have had in uk for a while, big portions, nice atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Great, really good restaurant, great food and nice staff!

We have a service dog with us and the guy in charge said "we have a table available, but don't accept service dogs" when we pointed out the fact that it's illegal he said "yes" and refused us a table!!!

Delicious food, comes out piping hot. Steak and peppercorn sauce were amazing, highly recommended!!

Just visited this restaurant and was served by Matthew and Liv. Also a sweet girl behind the bar. The food was magnificent. I haven’t had such good Italian food in a long time. Will definitely be returning for special occasions.

Vary rarely there's a place that does everything well. The Avellino team does. It's difficult if you have special dietary requirements, like allergies. I have an allergy and two intolerances & my Mrs has an intolerance and an allergy, we feel very comfortable eating here. I spoke with Loni, (apologies for incorrect spelling). He can advise against dishes containing allergens. The cutlery is clean. The glassware is clean and not chipped or cracked. The crockery is also immaculate. The tables are always clean. The draught's are properly chilled and don't taste like the lines haven't been cleaned in a long time. The front of house staff are always immaculately presented and service is of the highest quality. The cocktails are exquisite and if you fancy one but don't want alcohol, there is a mocktail menu also. They cater for veggie and gluten free. They have a lovely, large open space dining room. I dropped my fork, the cutlery is back end heavy. By the time I had picked it up he had come over with a replacement. It's almost silver service and Michelin cuisine but for a very reasonable price. The menu is a mixture of Italian and Greek influences. But the product is purely indulgent. Which brings me to, desert. If you can permit the calories the desert menu is a sweet tooth paradise. Excellent coffee. Most of my reviews are 1 star, I acknowledge I'm difficult to please and often heavily critical. This time, if there was a 6th star I would have awarded that.

Upon arrival we were asked to wait a few minutes before being seated. Whilst waiting I noticed that there was a dish of Parmesan cheese on a shelf right next to a bottle of anti bac spray with a cloth balancing on top. Once seated our order was taken and our meals arrived quickly. I really enjoyed my linguine primavera, and my husband enjoyed his pizza. Once again whilst sitting eating my meal I noticed yet.another dish with Parmesan cheese in it right next to a bottle of anti bac spray with a cloth balancing on top. All in all I have to say that the service was very good and our meals were delicious but please make sure that the Parmesan is kept covered and away from cleaning products

Great food. Super quick. Offered us a table even though they were mad busy.

Excellent service and delicious food. A group of five on a Monday night, always a bit of a risk!!! Excellent, authentic Italian.

Enjoyed a delicious meal here while on holiday with family. A young crew working front of house were superb, polite and attentive. Food was delicious. Would definitely go back for more. Gluten free options were very welcome.

Excellent , typical Italian restaurant with good atmosphere , very good food and charming , efficient service. In centre of town . Sensibly priced

Superb food , good value , plenty of choice, really good service .. 4 of us all had different starters and mains and nothing was left at the end .. the anti-pasty was especially good… really strongly recommend this place

Very friendly staff and great service!

Very nice place! Food is lovely and fresh. The team is super friendly and efficient. There's a nice relaxing atmosphere. We'll come back!

Very tasty and fresh food, that’s good value. A relaxing atmosphere with friendly service.

Excellent meal this evening. Wonderful, attentive, sociable staff. Superb, well cooked tasty food.

Three courses, wine, and shots - did not miss

Food was top draw, jam donut shooters were banging. Would definitely recommend.

Great food and service good value for money

Excellent food and excellent service 👌

Very busy but staff were extremely friendly and efficient. Recommend booking in advance

Excellent restaurant. Family group of eight and we had a superb meal.

Service prompt and friendly, food a delight.

Excellent food. Always return when I visit Ross-on-Wye

There were very few restaurants to choose from on a Sunday afternoon in Ross-on-Wye. We lucked out and settled on this Italian spot after searching for too long. Rapid, attentive service and the use of very good ingredients. Prices were on the higher side, and the pizza slightly salty, but the flavours hit the spot. A success.

We went on a Saturday for evening meal. The staff and service was good, very friendly and not too much of a wait at all to say it was full. The food and drinks were lovely, averagely priced but good value for money/good portion sizes. Only thing I'd have to say is that is was absolutely roasting hot in there.. that was the only little thing that I kinda found a bit hard to deal with. Other than that, very very nice food

Had a lovely meal here last Saturday night. Great atmosphere and the staff were really attentive. Enjoyed all my food - delicious and good value for money. I especially enjoyed the antipasto starter. Nice affogato for dessert - with biscotti sprinkled on top :) Would definitely recommend. Can't wait to go back.

An excellent restaurant with good food and service at reasonable prices. The Saltimbocca is heartily recommended.

The meal was delicious, true and authentic Italian cuisine. The restaurant was beautifully decorated. The team were very efficient. We will definitely be returning. Thank you.

Super Italian restaurant reasonably priced and excellent quality and service

Excellent food, drink and service. Meals were very tasty with great portion size.

Amazing fresh food at a good price. I would highly recommend this restaurant .

Staying in the area and arrived as a walk in. Gorgeous food with wonderful service in a lovely atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

Lovely clean tables, great service, smart waiting staff, superb food tasty and colourful beautifully presented and it didnt cost the earth either.

Good Italian food.Service is excellent. A young trainee waitress ( Amelie) was so good…sure she will make a good addition to the already very professional staff.

Great little Italian restaurant, reasonable price, very slick on the service

Good ambience and menu. We had the duck for main course. But whatever you choose, leave room for the tiramisu.

Enjoyed a lovely evening with family and friends

My wife and I had food here and I must say the sirloin steak was the nicest i ever had. It was so soft like Butter. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the Pollo Funghi too. Thank you for your wonderful service, Lon and Ruby. Not forgetting young chap who's name we don't know. Next time we're back in Ross On Wye we will definately return. Paul and Julia. Swansea x

Brilliant food and a great atmosphere. The walnut and gorgonzola ravioli was exceptionally good. The wine lovely too.

Three adults, for lunch time menu, we had the 2 courses for £14.95. Food was fantastic and great value for money. Service was great and a nice friendly atmosphere.

Delicious starters and main courses. Staff were awesome. Nice evening spent here with family and friends. Definitely recommend.

Can’t believe we’ve not eaten here before, but feel sure we will eat here again Lovely food, (who doesn’t like Italian food?) great service, and local (booking was very easy too, via their website) The star for me was the banoffee pie (see photo)

Satisfying in every way. My wife's Risotto surpassed her expectations, and my sirloin was perfect! Service at this wonderful family owned restaurant was friendly, efficient and informative. Overall, an excellent dining experience, which we hope to repeat next time we are in Ross on Wye.

We would highly recommend this fabulous Italian restaurant. Warm and welcoming staff and great atmosphere. Our food, Avellino risotto and sirloin steak were cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. We'll be back.

We were staying in Ross overnight and booked at this restaurant a few hours in advance. So glad we did. Authentic Italian with a great atmosphere. It was really busy but we were made to feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Fantastic food with great service and a good range of items on the menu as well as a specials board. We will definitely return when next in the area.

Great place for a lovely meal, staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly! The Gnocchi was superb.

Taste sensation! Delicious food and great service. Highly recommend. Thanks

Lovely small restaurant with a wide range of food on offer. All looked amazing. There were no complaints from our table at all!

We called in unexpectedly, we went there 2 years ago. The food is just as we remembered. Delicious 😋 We were made welcomed and had a really lovely meal. We recommend people go. Such a very nice Italian. The staff were very friendly and helpful to.

Birthday meal with my wife and daughter. Excellent service, well priced and beautiful food. Authentic and great portions. Thanks so much!

This is an authentic Italian restaurant with food that is cooked to perfection. The pizza was delicious. This is our fourth time here and every time avellino do not fail to deliver an enjoyable meal.

Food was delicious and the service excellent. Friendly staff. Would definitely come again if in the area. Well worth a visit.

As soon as you enter the restaurant you are met with delightful faces beaming to make sure you have a great time so that is a wonderful start. The menu is extensive and that is saying something cause I am a vegetarian and even I am spoilt for choices. Taste hits the right note and it is always on point no matter when you visit. Even when they are running a full house there has never been long waits in between courses and neither do you have to jump in your seat to catch their attention. Must visit!!

Fantastic neighborhood Italian, delicious pizza and pasta. We had a lovely time and would highly recommend. Staff were very friendly. Also, they were very helpful in telling my friend which options were vegan. They could do starters, pastas and any pizza vegan.

Avellino Itailian Restaurant; it is a great place for a meal out, with plenty of choices, and has very freindly, welcoming staff, recommended.

For the price food is very good. We had the special of the day and lasagne. Lasagne was microwaved but still very nice. Service was impeccable.

Best Italian food anywhere in the UK. Amazing value for money with the lunch set menu. Very high quality cooking but remains homely.

Highly recommended restaurant, fantastic friendly and professional service. Great choices on the menu and excellent food.

Ate at this Italian restaurant while we were in Ross On Wye,lovely little place staff friendly made you welcome food very good .Would defo recomend,will go again if go to Ross On Wye again.

Great Italian restaurant. Food is incredible and the service is excellent. Good range of options on the menu and reasonable prices. Staff were very welcoming and attentive. We highly recommend this restaurant

Good restauarnt, centrally located. We visited early on Saturday evening and the restaurant was busy but service was good and the staff friendly. Good choice on the menu and also a specials boord. Would definitle visit again if in the area

Good selection on the menu. The food was delicious and was served with a warm welcome. Surroundings were clean and smart. When I visit Ross again, I will definitely go back.

A really great authentic Italian restaurant with a warm welcome. My friend and I shared a pizza vegetariana and vegetarian ravioli. Both were cooked to perfection with generous toppings on the pizza and delicious rich sauce on the ravioli. The service was impeccable and the...

Had a lovely meal here tonight but was so full from just mains that we had to forego desserts. I mentioned to our lovely waitress that the only thing I could probably have would be a limoncello and the next thing she’d brought over 3...

Very friendly and efficient staff. Food is well prepared and served hot. Very tasty. Pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant. Excellent value for money with the lunch menu.

Shocked by the quality of this restaurant. It was full on a Monday night! Our first visit but it won't be the last. Great food and amazing value.

Extremely good service and food. Very efficient, so much so that it was a breath of fresh air. Everything asked for, including the bill, came instantly. No waiting around. Prompt staff. Whoever runs the restaurant deserves applause. You don't find service like this much anywhere...

Bigger inside than it looks from the outside but still small enough to be cosy. The staff were pleasantly attentive, quick to take drinks and meal orders, and knowledgeable about products on the menu. We had such a lovely time there, we went back the...

After reading the encouraging reviews of this restaurant, I was very much looking forward to our visit this evening. Although the food was good, and there was no piped music, noisy fellow diners spoilt the experience.Two large groups, not misbehaving in any way, but loud,...

Been to this restaurant multiple times and it never disappoints! Food is top class, service was excellent, and the price is on point. This is by far the best restaurant in Ross on wye.

We had a lovely three course meal here with the house white wine. Everything was delicious and we left feeling very satisfied. The service was friendly and quick. It was quite busy too for a Wednesday evening so I would advise booking.

Went for our anniversary dinner, Fabulous food, and wine. Although it was very busy on Monday evening the staff could not do enough to help. The lovely young lady server was happy and friendly and {along with the food} helped make our evening so enjoyable....

Unfortunately we hadn’t realised the two course deal was unavailable at weekends Husband had spaghetti and meatballs whuch he said was ok but at £14 a bit steep Main thing though other than taking our order waiter made no attempt at conversation We were only...

We had a lovely evening here - although do book ahead as it was busy all evening! Service was excellent, and the food was really tasty.

Cosy atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food. Me and my family had an wonderful evening there. Highly recommend it 🥰 The tiramisu was not what I expected. Not enough marsala and the cream was just normal double cream. Everything else was perfect 👍

Monday night and packed. Great atmosphere, lively with background music and not too loud, place was buzzing. Lucky to get a table without a reservation. Two guys running the show doing everything efficiently and friendly but professional. So nice to go to an italian that...

Carol at Benhall Farm, where my wife and I were staying for the weekend, suggested Avellino to us. We dropped in for a meal on the Sunday evening. Amber and the other members of the team looked after us extremely well. We shared a couple...
