We chose Bella Italia for the gluten free choices on the menu. We didn't have to wait long for the starters were excellent and followed up by the mains, only one of which was a bit disappointing. With hindsight the pepperoni pizza should have been...

Can’t fault the restaurant at all, surprised to see dave’s review below as anyone with common sense would know that as it’s a chain restaurant the menu isn’t going to be extravagant is it! What sets this restaurant apart was the service received, a warm...

Nothing special about this big chain restaurant. Only go if you have a good discount voucher. Food is OK but similar average quality to other big chains

Matt was fantastic with us all. We brought along 2 toddlers and he was such a great help with the kids and made us all feel extra special. Five star service.

Fab customer service by Mat. Engaging with the kids and attentive. Super gluten free options. Delicious food and quick service.

Although we had booked on line for 6pm they at very short notice on the day fitted our party of 6 in at 5pm. Food & service were excellent. Restaurant not far from the Shambles.

Amazing atmosphere and amazing staff, especially Matteo! Going above and beyond to make the whole experience perfect! The food was delicious and great value for money! Will definitely come back (not just for the food!)

What an amazing service by Matt, from start to finish nothing was to much trouble. My 2 boys both have additional needs and we always worry when we go out for food, so we don't go out much, it was a pleasure. Thankyou so much...

Served by Mat on an impromptu visit to the York restaurant he was knowledgeable and helpful advising on food and especially the gelato. While there he entertained a family of 5 younger children making them feel.happy and really engaged. It was a joy to watch....

Matt was fantastic he let my 6 year old daughter put on a waitress apron and serve our tables desserts which made her night. Excellent service very friendly and personable

Lovely atmosphere. Food arrived very quick, was hot and delicious. Had a great server named Mat, he was very busy but always made time to check in and get more drinks etc.

Fabulous food and fabulous friendly service. Couldn't do enough for us and made the night so enjoyable. They had over 20 of us to look after and they delivered!

Mat was great all night despite big group of us, order arrived on time and great attention to details.

Absolutely delicious vegan options and appreciated the little flag in the food for reassurance. Would recommend the cookie dough!! Matt was a brilliant server and I look forward to returning.
