Belluno in Torridge

Absolutely lovely ,delicious food, friendly staff . Really enjoyed it

A restaurant for many occasions, the food was very tasty and offered alternatives for specific diet requirements. A*

Lovely ambience, lovely staff, an absolute pleasure

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere. Never let's us down.

Really lovely food, service & great atmosphere, with a good buzz.

We popped in on the off chance of getting a table at 7.00pm on a Saturday night. As expected they were unable to find us a table but did offer us eating at the bar which we gladly accepted. The front of house staff were friendly, courteous, attentive and helpful throughout our visit and their pleasant demeanor really added to our experience. The food, well it was simply beautiful, fresh, tasty and beautifully presented by the guys in the kitchen, hats off to them. Having only recently moved to the Bideford area this was our first visit to Belluno but it certainly won't be our last in fact although it's only September we have already booked for a Christmas Eve family meal.

Lovely food, too many cow paintings

Pleasant staff, great food and a beautiful location. ❤️

We had an exceptional dining experience at Belluno in Bideford! The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was just perfect for a wonderful night out. We tried the Sofia pizza, which was topped with a delightful combination of tomato sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, chicken breast, and rosemary—it was cooked to perfection. The Risotto al Frutti di Mare was a true standout, with succulent king prawns, mussels, and squid in a beautifully balanced saffron white wine sauce. Each bite was a burst of flavor, with the perfect blend of garlic, chilli, and fresh herbs. To top it all off, we indulged in their Tiramisu for dessert, and it truly blew our minds—one of the best we've ever had! The staff were incredibly nice and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. We were more than happy to leave a tip for such excellent service. Belluno is a gem in Bideford, and we can't wait to come back again soon. Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine with a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

We had a delightful meal at Belluno. The restaurant was very nice - it is a converted bank and the staff were very attentive without being overly persistent. Food was excellent. Every dish we had was delicious. Highly recommended.

Great lunch menu, had the sea bass excellent.

I had an amazing experience at this Italian restaurant. The staff were incredibly nice and welcoming, creating a calm and comfortable atmosphere. We tried the Margherita pizza and Beef Lasagna—both dishes were uniquely flavorful and absolutely delicious. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant. No booking is needed on weekdays.

The evening couldn't of been better. Lovely food, excellent service and a great atmosphere. Couldn't fault anything! Thank you!

Great place. Lovely friendly staff. The kids menu is great. The food was fantastic and very tasty. Cannot fault the place.

Good restaurant, with delicious Italian dishes. No reservations, they were full, but a solution was still sought and created. Friendly and hospitable service. Dishes, fresh and tasty. Beautiful plates / presentation of the dish. Enjoyed 3 courses. Everything was great. RECOMMENDED when visiting Bideford.

Fantastic food and location. Lovely atmosphere and good menu selection.

Great Italian Resturant and bar. Staff very pleasant. food fantastic quality and taste cooked to perfection on our visit. then when bill arrived was shocked how good the price was. will be calling again this holiday.

Another visit for us, this time for my daughter’s birthday. As always the food was great and the service is attentive without being pushy. Won’t be long before we’re back again

Very good Italian restaurant. Very good dishes, very good cuisine

Great food, quick service but unfortunately the table wasn’t available on arrival even though we had a booking. Also, don’t expect a nice quiet meal. It was loud!

I would like to say a huge thank you to all the team at Belluno for a special celebratory lunch for my brothers 30th wedding anniversary The food was outstanding. Coming from London (experiencing an array of good quality eateries) Belluno is at the top of the list with the best. Thank you chef. The service was prompt, though not fussy, the ambience perfect (not to loud, even though the restaurant was fairly busy) and there was a sense of unhurried - be here for as long as you like - take your time I will definitely return. Highly recommended to all, from singles to couples, to family's

Lovely restaurant. Our first ever visit to Bideford and noticed that the restaurant was really quiet, we were the only people there to begin with. We hadn't made reservations, just walked in as they opened. Really lovely, clean restaurant, helpful staff, quick service. Everything we ordered was freshly made with high-quality ingredients for a very reasonable price. Would recommend a visit if you're in the area.

Very lovely food, very rich but very tasty. Restaurant was quite full, so it was very noisy and got quite hot in there. Lovely staff.

Good range of dishes, catering for all needs. Good bar and drinks menu. Subtle interior decor. Attentive and polite staff, seen when needed but not overly chatty. Eaten here a few times now and food is good quality, sauces usually a bit too salty, but flavourful. Some room for improvements. Unsure who wrote the dessert menu, but X2 dishes spelt incorrectly. Overall, good and worth visiting. We have booked once but visited three times and they always find us a seat.

This place accommodated large party at short notice, providing good service. Food was delicious.

Pollo and fungi...tasteless, sauce thin but excessive amount of olive oil over everything. The duck meal was chewy bordering on tough, jus thin and tasteless. Not worth the amount charged.

Lovely meal, staff were very accommodating to our large family group. The food was piping hot and fresh when it arrived at the table, and tasted brilliant! Very good portions which made the bill slightly more reasonable in my opinion. This was our second time dining at Belluno and won’t be the last!

Great find for me. Staff extremely helpful and courteous. Food absolutely great, don't scrimp on the portions and an Italian Restaurant that has a good selection of wines and sells aged Grappa, excellent!

Ate here a month ago. Rosemary and garlic flatbread was delicious and ragu bolognese fantastic.

Food was amazing. The staff were wonderful, very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.

This has to be one of the best Italian meals I have ever had! The food was absolutely delicious, it was all delivered very promptly and all at the same time. It was very evident it was freshly made. The service was also very good and the restaurant is really lovely. We are down here on holiday and unfortunately heading home tomorrow otherwise we would definitely have been back.

Great service, tasty food, clean environment. Friendly staff. We had calzone and a pasta chicken brocoli and blue cheese meal. It was lovely

Very good restaurant and lovely food. Only marking 1 star down as my meal was quite small compared to my companions, and other meals being served.

Although the vibe in the restaurant is good, and the service was friendly and pleasant, the food choices of our party were found to be lacking in quality. My sword fish was lacking in flavour, mainly due to no perceived seasoning. The same comments were made about my wife’s lasagne. This was our first visit and I think it will be our last.

We went as a large family group. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The good was lovely. Would recommend no trouble at all.

Lovely Italian restaurant. So nice we went twice!

First time at Belluno, delicious food great value for money. Martini expresso was excellent.

Always lovely food and welcoming

Food was amazing and service great. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely food, great choice on the menu, plus specials. 2 courses for £6.95 for children. Good prices, including drinks. Huge pizzas, and tasty pasta. We didn’t have room for pudding but they looked lovely too.

Overall the experience was good, food was nice and it had a great atmosphere. However the service was border line appalling. There was a lady with a black and white striped t-shirt who was great however one of the male waiters was utterly useless, we asked what flavour of ice cream there was (took 20 mins to find out) asked for water (never got it) asked for the bill (we had to ask for another member of staff for it). Its such a shame because I really liked the restaurant its just the service was a major let down.

Very nice place Waitress was lovely and so attentive without being over bearing. Food was lovely and plenty of it would give more stars if I could

Great food and friendly service

General opinion is that it's a really very nice Italian restaurant for a good meal. The food is good with plenty of pasta and pizza options. The service was really good with no pressure or delays, we all received our meals together and (where appropriate) they were all hot. Several lagers on tap and a good wine selection, the cokes were from glass bottles. Staying near for a holiday and the children brought me here for Father's Day having reserved a table well in advance, towards the end of the holiday we came back with a last minute reservation. It looked to be a popular place and it filled up nicely both visits. The decor was pleasant with animal art (a modern take) on all the walls, some were for sale. There's a little parking available on the road but there's a car park on the main road next to the river (free after 6 pm I recall) which is only a few minutes walk.

Generally good. Prawns excellent , service and atmosphere a bit lacking in side toom.

The SERVICE is the best I've had in Bideford! The bread could have been warmed but it was still so good. The margharita pizza was awesome as the crust was perfect. The other two dishes were unique but outstanding. Again, amazing service, great food, and mixed drinks to die for. You won't be disappointed!

Despite having booked a table for 8, several weeks beforehand, they hadn't reserved space for us. They offered us a table for 6 which they then added a couple of places to. After a half hour, they came and took our order but that was only because we caught the eye of a waitress. I have to say that the food was excellent, once it finally arrived... All in all, disappointed

Only three other tables but we still waited as people who came in after us were looked after first, other than that food was good and the service good.

We love eating at Belluno, which does super-tasty authentic Italian food along with great service and a warm, welcoming vibe. We've eaten at the smaller premises up the hill and at the newer one on the riverfront, and the food has been exceptional every time.

Belluno is top quality, delicious food made with love. Generous portions with undoubtedly home made pastas and doughs. I live so far away but would come across the country again just to eat here. Great Italian food that speaks to my heart ❤️

I had the seabass from the lunch menu with the tiramisu, it was delicious! The food was very good, and the lunch menu was reasonable. 2 courses set menu for £16.95. They had mocktails, cocktails, pasta, pizza, risotto and from the grill dishes as well as starters and desserts. They also had a kids menu with some good options on there. Parking was a pay and display 2 minutes walk away, which for me as a disabled person meant I didn't have to get the electric wheelchair out, and could just use my walking sticks. Would highly recommend if you're in the Bideford area or North Devon and fancy Italian!

Lovely little restaurant, good value and lovely food . Clean, charming facilities (not always to expect or take for granted lately) this is a very clean and nice place to eat hence all the stars I've given.

Great food, good sized portions in a lovely setting. Prices are very good too.

Delicious food with affordable prices.

The most amazing food and the staff were wonderful. Tha k you James and the team for a lovely evening x

We went here for the first recently and it's such a lovely place we'll definitely come back. Staff were friendly, the place was lovely and the art work was beautiful. The pizzas were amazing.

Very tasty pizza! Highly recommended!

Belluno is amazing with the most delicious food. I can't wait to come back again. A great experience

What a wonderful evening at Belluno. The food and service were both excellent. I cannot rate this place highly enough. Thank you for a lovely meal.

Slow Service, Overpriced won't be back

visit for lunch, had the lunch menu which is excellent value for money. It was all wonderful however I can recommend the calamari, sea bass & tirramasu

Make sure you go to high Street belluno as they've moved but still lush food and do their best to accommodate allergies

Really good experience and a delightful evening

We had prebooked a party of 17 for an adult's birthday. The staff worked very hard to make sure everything was great and the food was amazing.

Excellent food and a nice experience. Vegan options.

Food is fantastic,the Lasagne is to die for as are the arancini. Service was polite and friendly. We make regular visits,booked and unbooked and can't wait to go very soon.

We love Belluno and visit whenever we're in the area. We've had pizza, calzone, risotto, pasta, it's all delicious. Children's menu is great, the sauce is well seasoned, not too bland and not too much for the little pallet. Great choice of cocktails.

First time visiting food service price very good would definitely go again

Great food little slow on service

Lunch yesterday was awful. Pre-ordered food, paid £5.00 deposit, table booked for one o’clock. Food served over an hour late. Sat by door and was really cold and draughty. My duck breast was served with bright pink glace cherries in sweet syrup. Service was very slow and off-hand. Not up to usual standard

A restaurant I'd heard a lot of good things about, so it was booked for my son's 18th celebration on the strength of those. The ordering process was straightforward, and drinks arrived promptly. However, whilst two main courses came out a while later, the remaining four did not. Indeed, they did not until the first two were all but finished, lest they go cold. My ravioli was good but for the price light on quantity, certainly for a main course. I was disappointed and not sure I will return.

Very good food and happy smiley waitress'. No complains here,we'll be back.

Very enjoyable until presented with card reader…. Then an option of 10, 15 or 20% tip. This sort of emotional obligation is awkward

Gr8 place to eat, highly recommended 👌

This restaurant is now in centre of Bideford, opposite lloyds bank in Old Barclay Bank House. Very nice meal, staff very good.

A fun bustling restaurant in the centre of Bideford. Food was ok, a little mix up on starters but was dealt with well by attentive staff.

Had lunch with friends here today - 4 of us. We had a warm welcome in a relaxed atmosphere and well presented, delicious food from a very reasonably priced 2/3 course lunch menu. Excellent friendly service too. We will definitely be back and will recommend to others. Thank you.

Had a wonderful meal and time for my birthday

Have been twice in the last six weeks and came away disappointed both times. The food is good, maybe a bit pricey though. The restaurant is very noisy and almost impossible to have a conversation, not sure how they overcome that but it needs to be sorted as neither time was the restaurant full. The biggest issue was that it was very cold and drafty. Both times when I mentioned it, I was told the heating was broken and nothing they could do. Won't be going a third time, the manager just didn't seem to care and just kept asking if the food was OK!

Lovely food, it was NYE so everyone and everywhere was very busy, it meant we felt a bit rushed in light of later sittings but the food was incredible! Would go back for sure

Really enjoyed our afternoon meal. Very attentive and personal service, tasty food, massive portions. Our children were made to feel special.. a great choice in Bideford

Delightful Italuan e ending Great food. Service. Atmosphere. Highly recommended

Nice atmosphere, great service unfortunately one of the guest being pescartarian had ham on her fish no biggie as normally its replaced no drama but unfortunately they only preceeded to rare if the meat and tried to re searve the same fish ??? Minus the bacon. They did re=cook one in the end a little dissapointjng.

A great evening out with a large group and even an appearance from Santa!

Garlic bread was tasty. Mushroom risotto wasn’t . Service was good. Bright light from the kitchen isn’t ideal Mains slightly overpriced

Lovely Italian food, excellent service. Would highly recommend.

Excellent food and service. New wine list very good. Simply the only place to go in Bideford for a meal out without breaking the bank.

This was an amazing dining experience with the service and food being on point, the steak was cook perfectly to my liking and the cheesy garlic bread was amazing. The banoffee pie was delicious and very flavourful, highly recommend! The cocktails were outstanding as well would definitely recommend to come down and try it for yourself!

Aside from the amazing food, great drinks, brilliant atmosphere and wonderful service what makes this such a special restaurant is this wonderful lady who is the heart and soul of Belluno. She and her team make every visit special especially for our little boy who loves to go whenever we get the chance. We have never had a disappointing experience at Belluno which is an exceptional achievement. Thank you to the wonderful Belluno team.

Real Italian food very delicious the mussels very delicious

Food was great staff were great smiling and happy great customer service.

Our first visit to the new venue. Although very different to the old venue, I think it is nicer. The food was nice as usual, although I would have preferred more vegetarian options. The service was very good, with great staff. Looking forward to our next visit.

Best restaurant in Bideford! Visited for an evening meal with kids. Food came out within 15mins. Pizzas we had were all great. Puddings also good. Very impressive to see how the restaurant has scaled up in terms of the kitchen and staff. New interior decor also very well designed. Spacious but also buzzing. Wife loved her November rain cocktail. Staff friendly and attentive.

4th time here and yet to have a bad thing to say. Food and atmosphere is excellent, the waitress with curly brown hair has been consistently great. Looking forward to next time.

Ate here 12 months ago, good so booked again when back in the area. Food still tasty so why only 2 stars ? Couples get 1 of 7 tables against wall with bench seat, to reach the seat you have to squeeze between one of the tables, so you spend the evening listening to every word of the conversations to your left & right, and they to yours. Larger parties accommodated by shoving other tables together, so loo trip entails asking them to allow you to squeeze through. 50 mins after arriving main course completed, but 35 mins more before 3 scoops of icecream and a slice of banoffee pie appear, although ordered swiftly. Checking on your food "Everything OK? Yes, yes, yes", immediately same to next table. Is the point of a question not to give the person asked the opportunity to answer, rather than answer for them? No green vegetables to be seen - perhaps Italians are dying in droves from scurvy? Chefs in working clothes just outside of loo corridor smoking - just shut the door to keep smell outside, and us in ignorance of hygiene practices. Our 2nd visit will be our last.

Amazing all round. Can't wait to go again!!

Great food, decent portions, great service, friendly staff and comfortable setting. Highly recommended!

Excellent Italian food. They have moved premises. New restaurant is lovely. The food portions are generous and good value for money. Service with a smile. Very comfortable place. Will be back on a regular basis.

I love this place for food but unfortunately I live right beside this restaurant - we are regularly kept awake till 11pm by their noisy STAFF in their outside break area. I respect the fact you are working, that’s why I’ve never complained or kicked up any fuss but I’m fed up now. I understand this can be the perils of living in a town centre but this used to be a small quiet tucked away residential area in the heart of Bideford town and our peace and quiet as been RUINED by your staff. Please acknowledge the fact you are surrounded by flats and houses. Have some respect for the nearby neighbours and please keep it down!

Fantastic meal as always. Even on a Monday night out of season the atmosphere was lively and food was excellent. We have tried the pizza, pasta and risotto, as well as most of the starters and all are very tasty, come out quickly and are great value. Highly recommend 👍
