Everything was great! The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about the food. The focaccia is a must if you go, pillowy soft with a nice crisp on the outside. The olive oil that it comes with tastes very high quality and the sweet balsamic vinegar tops it off. Both of the mains we got were very flavourful, well seasoned and well portioned. We also got a pistachio tiramisu that was pretty unique and very good. Well priced for what you get. Highly recommended.

A true gem! I had the carbonara which was outstanding, followed by the tiramisu which was one if the very best I've eaten anywhere. The staff were attentive without being irritating, friendly and genuinely cared. It was our first time here but it won't be our last. Thank you Kia's.

We booked a table for 9.00pm but were waiting for over an hour before we got seated at our tsbke. A waitress came over to take our order at 10 mins past 10pm to find out the focaccia was not available and when we asked for bread and olive oil instead we were told this was not possible even though bread was available with other starters. Although we ordered 2 main courses it was obvious we would be waiting some significant time as some people who had been waiting since we first walked in were just being served their main course. Although it was a fairly busy Saturday night bookings should not have been accepted for 9.00 pm when it was clear those costumers would not receive their orders until well past 10.30. As a result we cancelled our order. We were looking forward to a nice meal and the reviews were very good but the service meant we never actually ate there

Gorgeous little restaurant in a great location. Spacious, calm but cosy atmosphere, great service and lovely food and drinks. We had the best focaccia! They had 3 x starters and 3 x main specials options, as well as the main menu. It is cash only which is worth knowing in advance, as mains are approx £20 each. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely meal a few weeks ago at Kia’s to celebrate some good news. It was our first time here, we had beautifully made food and a lovely bottle of wine. We were served by Barbara who was very warm and welcoming, and had great advice when we asked as we couldn’t decide what to order. I can’t wait to eat here again.

Un entrante de burrata sublime, servido con una pera escalfada y refrigerada, desollada, la burrata cubierta con pacanas delicadamente tostadas, aderezadas con remolinos de miel aromática y vinagre balsámico. Un gran entrante, pero vale la pena. Tuve que parar para cerrar los ojos y saborear los contrastes de mi plato. ¡Casi asaltan a la camarera para la próxima fuera de la cocina! Plato principal fue 4 rodajas de sartén supremamente crujiente - lubina frita en una cama de espinacas marchitas, alcaparras y pesto, acompañado de judías verdes delicadamente cocidas, mantecado suavemente y hierbas. Un trípode de gambas reales vistió el plato, bellamente cocinado, y presentado, rezando - estilo mantis! Una perfección de papa delfinosa, que me mantenía deseando más, parecía mundana pero escondía un sabor multicapa, y una rebanada gigantesca de parmesano que usé como mi diversión después del plato principal: bouche. Contrastes de textura y sabor en todo. Y para redondear mi fantasía con la comida, un tarro de tamaño mediano con un giro en el tiramisú clásico, una pasta de pistacho alrededor de la parte exterior de la capa más baja, y cubierto con pistachos triturados. Cucharear a través de todas las capas a la vez trajo café, licor, esponja, crema golpeando la lengua bam - bam - bam, uno tras otro. La actual Sra. L. comió champiñones picantes en una salsa de queso mezclado con un acompañamiento de compota de trufa. ¡Setas crujientes, queso caliente y sabroso! Una carbonara clásica para la protagonista de Madame, en su comida de aniversario de boda, con panceta crujiente escondida bajo linguini recubierto con salsa carbonara. Afortunadamente la afortunada señora se estaba guardando para el postre así que guzzleguts tenía un montón de entrante y principal para probar además de la suya. Terminar la comida especial de la Signorina fue un helado de vainilla con un biscotti de cantucinni de almendra, quizás un poco ligero en vainilla, pero una forma muy agradable de redondear la mejor comida que he comido en años. La mayor decepción fue la limpieza de boca y paladar del helado, robándome la oportunidad de volver a saborear la perfección mientras mi lengua buscaba desesperadamente bocados entre mis dientes. ¿Cuándo podemos ir de nuevo por favor?

I'll be picky as I am Italian, so read only if you want an authentic Italian opinion. This is a lovely place, with decent but not exceptional Italian food, and a quite pricey. I had the past with granchio and tiramisù for dessert). The pasta was good, the sauce was way too soggy and salty but at least it was a generous portion. Also, they gave us no bread... if you are Italian, you give bread (included in the price). Dessert: The tiramisu (very expensive) was.. interesting... but it was more like a coffee with some cream than tiramisu. It is served with pistacchio on top, which is really interesting and I found really a good combination, but the mascarpone cream was very little and just on top, the biscuit (savoiardi) was completely sogged in in coffee, and the two (cream and biscuit) were not well combined, they were just one on top of the other, and the coffee flavour was overpowering. The one I make at home is better in terms of combination and balance of flavours and texture. So that was disappointing. Service was good, very friendly so ok. However it was quite slow on a packed night, they were not very attentive with water, which was exacerbated by the salty food, and the non Italian personnel could learn to pronounce the name of the dishes at least. But the servers were really nice and friendly. And yeah it is cash only. Overall I think overrated, overpriced, not authentic as they claim.

It’s so rare to discover a restaurant serving great food without a hint of pretension. We have just enjoyed a faultless meal out at Kia’s for our 8 year anniversary and will be finding any excuse to return. We opted to share the focaccia with balsamic and oil from the special board to start - this was almost brioche like in texture and absolutely delicious, sprinkled with flakes of sea salt and rosemary to finish. For mains we had a slow braised beef cheek ragu and a carbonara. Not to get too soppy about a pasta dish, but the carbonara genuinely made me feel like I was sat around my grandmother’s kitchen table again, which was a beautifully nostalgic experience. For puddings we had homemade vanilla gelato and a warm indulgent brownie. This is homely, comforting, honest Italian food cooked to absolute perfection. To top it off, service was faultless, there are crooner hits in the background and the coffee was great - cannot remember the last time we left a restaurant this satisfied. If it’s raining outside and you’re craving the perfect bowl of pasta, get yourself a table.

A 10/10 meal last night after FINALLY visiting Kia’s, despite living 1 minute away from it for the last 4 years! There are so many choices on the menu, it took me ages to decide. I went with the Pesto Al Verde, which was fettuccine pasta with pesto, garlic, white wine and cream: topped with pine nuts, rocket leaves and fresh Parmesan. It was the creamiest pasta I’ve ever had, and it was divine. Great portions too. The staff were all so lovely and welcoming too. They couldn’t do enough. Excited to go back and try some more of the menu. Thanks for a lovely evening Kia’s!

I think this is my 3rd 5 star review for kia’s. Once again we are back and once again they did not disappoint. I went to celebrate my birthday with my boyfriend and it was incredible again. I had the crab pasta and he had the Calabrese. We loved them both equally so we kept swapping throughout the meal, we couldn’t choose a favourite. We had the focaccia to start as usual and it was gorgeous, probably the best i’ve had. we had the rocola salad to accompany our pasta and even that was worthy of the 5 star. The waitress was clearly new and young but was doing a fantastic job, very attentive and friendly. Already can’t wait to return.

Firstly the Food is unreal, I’ve been to Kias twice now despite living at the opposite side of Sheffield and it’s worth the trip. We went more recently to celebrate my wife’s birthday as a party of 5 including a picky 11 year old eater who was catered for brilliantly. We went off the back of a trip to Puglia and the food and vibe in the restaurant took us right back there it’s great I’d suggest booking at least a week in advance as there was never an empty seat in the place, people literally waiting at the door for a spot. There was never a hint of been rushed out despite the waiting people. Top marks will be returning.

The main reason that I am leaving this review is because the chef made the very best rissoto marinara that I've ever had, I'm 53 years old and travelled around Europe a lot. Chef kept it simple with perfectly seared scallops and king prawns, not just some random seafood mix. The al dente arborrio rice was spot on. It's not easy to get right but tonight's meal for me was magnifico 10/10 😋

First time I've been here and although I'm loathe to write this it was disappointing. We arrived to be told there was a staff shortage in the kitchen and staff training was being undertaken ( on a Friday night?) So expect delays. OK but perhaps a drink on the house or some complimentary bread and dipping oil would have been appropriate in the circumstances. Starters £7 for a small single portion of foccacia, not cheap at all. Pasta dishes served without anything else for the best part of 20 quid even in today's world is just too pricey I'm afraid. The lead waitress was excellent and doing her best in difficult circumstances. Another waitress actually questioned whether I should have parmesan on my pasta ( with seabass) which our table found amusing. The pasta was very tasty. Cash only? Sorry to be critical

This is a really cute pastaria with a great selection of freshly made pasta. The food was great. We booked in advance - would recommend as we went on a weekend and so was quite busy. We found that the service was quite slow unfortunately, we only ordered a main course and drinks and we were there for around an hour and a half. There was a lot of waiting for food and the bill as well. We had to ask twice for this. Would recommend and would go again but probably a better experience midweek. Cash only.

This place only has 20-25 meals on the menu, and 3 or 4 specials on the blackboard, but it's all the better for it. The focaccia is superb!!! In fact it's too good. Be careful ordering this as a starter as you may find yourself full up before you even start. I had the calamari for starter (with the focaccia of course) and it was juicy and tasty. For main I had the crab linguine. Beautiful. The pasta melts in your mouth. The crab wasn't over powering but just on point. Smart move on my behalf was leaving some focaccia to mop up the sauce afterwards. I could say it was planned but the reality is I stopped eating the focaccia earlier worried about being able to eat the main meal 😲 The amarone they serve is one of the best at £63 a bottle. Be wary as it's 16% and can creep up on you quite fast Thoroughly recommend this place. It's superb!

Top-quality Italian cooking and a chilled but stylish ambience. We've not been here before but will definitely be coming again on the evidence of our meal yesterday evening. Two specials to share to start with - some exceptionally good sea-salt and rosemary foccacia with oil and balsamic, and 3 very tasty arancini's with tomato salsa. And then Jenny moved on to another special for her main - "Cozze", billed as a starter, but huge - a giant bowl of mussels in a fragrant and spicy 'nduja flavoured broth with white beans (& more foccacia). She looked very happy.... And I had a delicious dolcellate and wilted spinach pasta dish, with distinctively chewy pasta - a real treat. The parmesan is freshly grated onto the dishes at the table, the waitress was a delight, and it was fun being able to watch the chefs at work in the kitchen at the back of the restaurant. Just one thing to be aware of - the restaurant doesn't take cards, only cash, and because we had just walked in rather than booking we only discovered at the end of the meal. Not a problem as it turned out, as we could set up an immediate online transfer via our bank, but be aware. A great evening, and just what we needed after a very busy 36 hours and a lot of driving.

Every dish is clearly made with love and care, and it's one of the few places in Sheffield where you can really taste the difference. Im still disappointed to see that they've taken the spinach mascarpone pasta off the menu, but with so many other great options, it's hard to be too saddened.

From the moment we arrived on the door step we were so warmly welcomed, enthusiastically talked through the specials and even given an early peak at the desserts! Staff were attentive but not at all overbearing The food was absolutely out of this world, I had the seafood linguine and my partner a pesto pasta dish… both absolutely phenomenal.

The pasta I had was absolutely gorgeous and a really generous portion! The service was friendly too. However, I had the tiramasu for pudding and it was TINY for £8.50, it was tasty don't get me wrong, but maybe 5 mouthfuls. This meant that the meal was quite expensive for what we got, and then I find it bizzarre that it's 2023 and it's a cash only restaurant (nobody carries cash, upgrade to card machines!).

We had a lovely evening, it started with a warm welcome and the atmosphere was relaxed. We were given time to browse the drinks menu and to my pleasure was informed they sold a variety of gins! Unfortunately I can’t drink wine but my husband enjoyed his glass of house red! Once receiving our drinks the specials board was explained in full detail! I chose the Focaccia with sea salt and oil, I was so pleased I did as this was so fresh and was the best I have ever had! My husband had the meatballs and his face said it all! He loved them and said he wished these were available as a main as well as a starter! To follow I had the Ragu Stracciato which was slow braised beef cheek, all I can say is wow! Lots of meat which melted in mouth! My husband chose the Branzino which was Seabass and Prawns, he said that it was the best thing he had eaten in a very long time! We were pretty full but couldn’t leave without sharing a Tiramisu- again very good and yummy! To summarise the food is absolutely amazing, In our opinion the best in Sheffield! We will be back in the next few weeks! Thank you to the Chef! Only advice I can offer is make sure the Focaccia is a regular on the menu :-)

In Sheffield for work, I had dinner at this Italian restaurant. I ate a very good carbonara, better than many Italian restaurants, I also tried the pasta alla norma, another delicious surprise, you can really feel the atmosphere of home. Well-kept and clean place with friendly and trained staff, a mention to the owner Kia, a true culinary artist who pays attention to detail.

This is our third visit to Kias. brought friends along this time. Service was excellent. Staff very knowledgeable about the menu and were very attentive without being in your face. My partner has to have a Gluten Free diet, this was no problem at all. Thank you fora lovely evening. Rob

Been to Kia’s several times and have never had anything other than an excellent meal. Rainbow trout special was amazing. Not only is the food superb but the service is equally great. All the staff are extremely friendly as well as providing a great service....

Quality food - a definite cut or two above the norm - for an important meal for us. But really friendly service and a nice atmosphere. We had young kids (7 & 5) in our group and the staff handled them really well. Lots of other kids there too. Felt like a real family place. But still with excellent food.

Once again ,we had an absolutely beautiful meal at Kias Pasteria. Make no mistake, this is Sheffield's premier Italian pasta restaurant. Whilst you won't find pizzas here, the pasta more than makes up for it. We will be back as soon as we can.

Had a good meal at Rosmarino on Abbeydale Road, and while there were a few little misses, overall, it was a solid experience. The pasta dishes were definitely the highlight - well-cooked and tasty. I went for the seabass with lobster & crab ravioli, and while the flavours were great, the ravioli itself was a bit underwhelming. The filling was quite soft and minced up, so it didn’t pack as much punch as I’d hoped. That said, the sauce and seabass were absolutely ace - I’d happily just have those together and call it a win! The starters were fine, but nothing particularly special or memorable. Service was okay- lacked a bit of warmth and enthusiasm, which would have elevated the experience. That said, it was still a good meal overall, and I’d definitely come back to try other dishes. Looking forward to seeing what else they have to offer.

Absolutely amazing!!!! I had arancini (tomato/mozzarella and truffles ones) and they were cooked to perfection. Also, my pizza was insanely perfect! I am extremely fussy and it was just the best. Very authentic ingredients used & cooked just right - you can just tell. Thank you. I'll definitely be back ❤️

Food was good but 5 dishes on the menu was not available and it was my luck that those 5 dishes were the only ones I really wanted to try. They were understaffed that night as they had a huge group booking hence service was a bit slow. The pasta dish was amazing and was the best dish out of the dishes that we got to try. Steak was also very good and I could’ve just kept ordering that all night. Mussles are a must try especially the sauce was amazing. Calamari was also very good! They also have an option gor half pint beers in cute glasses Paella was not good jusy tasted oily really
