Went to La Banca for dinner on Sunday, and we had an amazing experience. Felt very welcomed and the inside atmosphere was very nice. The restaurant is very spacious with excellent ambience. The service was prompt, and food came quickly. We opted for the Sunday menu, which had some brilliant offers, and selected a few dishes from their traditional menu. Everything tasted delicious, and we would go to La Banca again! The waiters were extremely friendly and never rushed our decisions, would recommend to others.

Today La Banca held my baby shower, and what an outstanding job the team did! For a large group of people the timing of the food, the quality and the service was just THE BEST! I want to thank you all for hosting and is by far the best Italian food, can’t thank you all enough for how kind and helpful you were.

As you arrive, they’ll always be a warm welcome. The choice of food is excellent, price is very reasonable. Whether you choose from the lunchtime menu, or main menu, you won’t be disappointed. Staff are friendly and so willing to make sure that your experience is special. I can’t recommend La Banca enough…. Go try it for yourself!

First time we have eaten here. It was my wife's birthday and she fancied an Italian meal. From the moment we arrived the staff were very attentive to our needs. The food was excellent and as a family we will definitely be returning in the future as the restaurant is less than a mile from where we live and in this area a little gem. Well done to the staff in the front of house, and also the chefs in the kitchen for producing outstanding food. We will be returning in the future and would thoroughly recommend to everyone. Five stars*****

We ordered a takeaway pizza and pasta. Pizza arrived cold, not cooked and underdone. We had to reheat the pizza in the oven. When the delivery guy brought the food to us, he didn’t have a pouch to prevent the heat escaping from the food. Maybe that’s why? Still very underwhelmed. Pasta was mediocre. A huge disappointment as i ordered after seeing good reviews.

What a great atmosphere. We have never eaten here before but so glad we did. Thankfully we booked as it was full. (Friday night.) The staff were all lovely and gave us plenty of time between courses. Cocktails to start with, around £10 each. Our starters were the Salmon & Mackerel mousse and Gameberoni which were both great. We ordered extra veg to go with our main courses as thought we would need it, but we didn't! We had liver which came with lots of potatoes and swordfish which came with a large salad. No puds as too full, the coffee was just right. We will definitely come back again, a great place to celebrate our wedding anniversary.

We had made a reservation for 6pm for four of us (2 adults and 2 children). Initially the service the swift and attentive, staff seating us quickly and taking our drink, starters and mains order. Both my steak and my wife's pasta alla marinara were delicious and we all enjoyed the starter calimari. Everything was excellent, however as the night progressed and the restaurant got busier, the service disproportionately slowed. When it came time for dessert, we opted for some ice cream cream for the kids and a lemon tart for me. It took roughly 20minutes for these to be brought out which then mean the kids began to get restless. This was a shame as otherwise the food had been superb, the staff generally excellent and the atmosphere pleasant. We will return and I would recommend it others.

Good choice of dishes with some old favourites plus new additions. Portions were huge so make sure you’re hungry! Pizzas aren’t from a wood-fired oven but were very good. Tiramisu for dessert was excellent. Overall very happy and will certainly be back.

A group of friends went to La Banca last night for dinner. We had a very delicious and enjoyable meal with very efficient and delightful staff adding to the evening. We had not mentioned it was a birthday celebration so were very surprised and delighted when the staff (who must have overheard some of our conversation) gathered round and sung Happy Birthday and presented the birthday girl with dessert complete with candle. A great end to a great meal and such a thoughtful gesture. We will be back!

Dining at some of the very best restaurant in the World - has taught me that the very best establishments take being the best personally, service and food. And this is my experience with "La Banca" I made many last minute and very difficult request of them - and not only was I responded to immediately and politely - I was made to feel my request was important to them. They worked what I would consider a miracle and satisfied my request.Dan & Pushpa thank you so much. Your restaurant outstanding reputation is well-deserved. Just love it !!!! and my favourite, peaceful place to go...

The evening was a let down, after a positive previous experience. Here are the issues with tonight's meal... - We booked a week ago, not realising there was a set menu for Valentines Day. No pizza, no risotto, no pasta. Disappointing. The presentation of the slow-cooked beef was bad, and the ricotta omelette thing made me unwell hours after. It was barely warm when served. I would have complained but no one came to ask us how our food was (which is standard practise in waiting, as I used to work in a restaurant.) - we got served the wrong starter. - the limoncello wasn't chilled. - there was an Italian couple seated next to us and our waiter was so distracted with trying to please them, that he forgot about us after serving the (wrong) starter. The whole experience could have been better if we had staff checking along the way. And the variety of food wasn't great.
