La Famiglia in Liverpool

Great Italian with Sardinian specials.

Impromptu visit, using a voucher. Arrived after 2pm,so missed lunch crowd so very quiet. Regardless, we felt welcomed and enjoyed a fabulous meal, each cooked to perfection. Indulged in desserts, the tiramisu fabulous! Coffee was strong, punchy and fab. Authentic feel at this Italian and good menu. Offers very decent 2 course lunches for £15, as well as paninnis for £6. Certainly enjoyed our first visit here and won't be the last!!

En gömd pärla. Ligger på en tvärgata, men det är absolut värt att leta reda på denna italienska familjerestarang. En varierad meny, som erbjuder äkta italienska smaker. Deras luncherbjudande är ypperligt! Två rätter till förnämligt pris. Rekommenderas starkt!

The food were awesome and fantastic. The most popular cuisine were a must try! And the service is superb. We enjoy the night!

Really lovely staff and great grappa!

Amazing pasta, pizza, good service, good ambience and the pricing is reasonable. What else could you ask for?

Great place staff really friendly food was lovely we had the special lunch menu which was really good value for money been a few times now can't fault it

Excelente atención y mucha empatía. Los platos exquisitos todo muy representativo de Italia. Los precios muy razonables

Had a lovely meal after seeing the Vivaldi immersive light sho w. Excellent range of food and specials. I liked it the first time and this was a 2nd visit well worth it. I will go back at some point soon.

Amazing as always great food and amazing service. Unlike any other restaurant in Liverpool Definitely a must try 😉😉😉😊😊😊😊

Very good food. I ordered some Paccheri Mare and Tiramisu and everything was on point. Good product and well made. Great value for the price.

Excellent and good quality food. A very nice restaurant.

I will start on a positive note. The service was great, the waitress was attentive and friendly. and there was no waiting for our meal or drinks It was lunchtime and the schools were off, but we were the only two in the restaurant for most of our stay. We ordered from the specials menu @ 2 courses for £14.99. I ordered the Meatballs followed by the Lasagne. The portions were a good size unfortunately! I was warned to be careful as both dishes were piping hot. They were both lukewarm to almost cold. The meatballs were bland, unseasoned and a weird mushy texture. The Lasagne looked hot as the sauce was bubbling, but the actual Lasagne was again, lukewarm. I have had better from a supermarket own label tbh. My friend ordered the Calamari, they looked like they were bought from a supermarket, pale and microwaved. The bass was ok, but again lukewarm and the accompanying potatoes were almost inedible. We usually go to Casa Italia a few doors down, but thought we would try something new. i am not sure where these other 5* reviewers were eating, but I can't recognise it. We won't be going back. Sad.

Was excited to take my friend here after reading glowing reviews…she loves Italian. She ordered meatballs to start, they were cold, but she let that go. She then had the lasagna that she thought looked like and tasted like a supermarket one plopped in a bowl….I had the seabass that came with what looked like roast potatoes, but they were cold and tasted strange, like leftovers. no we didn’t complain as we were just so disappointed. Maybe when there is an offer on the food is a bit inferior..it was a quiet Tuesday…who knows.

Delicious pasta, but the sauce had no taste.

Very friendly as soon as we arrived,attentive,great food,lovely ambience,highly recommend,a must if you are in Liverpool

I wish I could give more stars to this fantastic restaurant 🤩 so friendly & welcoming from start to finish. Food is so delicious that words doesn’t give it justice but most important it is really authentic Sardinia cuisine. Every dish was creative and comes with different and nice presentations, full of flavour and nice taste combinations. The wine list is great and the service was very kind and attentive. My new favourite spot in Liverpool, highly recommended 🙌🏽💯🙌🏽

Lovely restaurant, the lunch special two course menu is very good value. Been a few times with my husband and mother and alway had a great meal, lovely friendly service would highly recommend.

Excellent Italian food reasonable price, good host , would visit again cosy atmosphere. Tucked away off Victoria Street

I would first just love to say a big massive thank you to the La familia team you made my daughter’s birthday night so special. Nothing was too much trouble, your service was impeccable, food was fresh and very tasty everyone enjoyed it so much. Also I have to say your wine was beautiful too. We will definitely be back very soon ! Once again a big massive thank you 😍x

Very nice service. Great, delicious food prepared by the best chef in town! I RECOMMEND!

Another amazing visit to our favourite Italian in Liverpool. We love it here. 👌🏼

There was not much left on the menu and the food disappointing

Felt like at home! I enjoyed the dinner at La Famiglia. The service, the food and the atmosphere are incredible. Next time I’ll be in Liverpool I will definitely go back there.

I had dinner at La Famiglia, it has been a very nice experience, all dishes are delicious, I highly recommend the Porceddu and the Culurgiones! Pure Sardinian experience! The 2 waitresses have been very professional and coming constantly with a big smile to make sure that we had a great moment! It has to be highlighted! The place is very cosy and makes you feel in Italy. I highly recommend this place! Thank you all

This wonderful place is not part of a chain. There is a real chef. The food is all real. There is a charming waitress. A proper welcome. The menu has a Sardinian influence (which appears to be more than a design choice). The wine list although limited has the classics with a fabulous Bovale (from Sardinia of course). They do a full range of food from salads through sucking pig fabulous Tagliata steaks, good fresh fish to delightful pasta. Faultless in its understatement

Picked at random for a quick and quiet family dinner while visiting family at the municipal hotel. Turned out to be amazing food at great value. Will absolutely be back next time we're in Liverpool! Please visit La Famiglia if you are close by, you won't be disappointed.

Loved it gorgeous authentic Italian food will return

Went here for the first time and will certainly be back. The food was amazing. The service outstanding.

wonderful little family restaurant near top of Stanley St award winning sardinian Italian food at reasonable prices really nice staff and gorgeous food reccomend

Gorgeous food and the best staff! Love Sardinian food 🤤 Went back after 2 yrs, chef Nino is brilliant and Claudia who served us was so lovely. This is a place you have to go back and try everything!

Went for a family birthday, great night and Service would definitely visit again 😎

The staff were brilliant, extremely friendly and helpful. My wife and myself meal was descent enough untill we were recommended the tiramisu for sweet. unfortunately it turned up in a tiny little jar with literally only half a dozen little spoonfuls, we were both very disappointed as it wasn't even that good apart from the cost of such a minute helping. I wouldn't say the portions were vague for money, so I don't think we'll be recommending this restaurant.

My friend and I came across La Famiglia while looking for somewhere to have dinner after a theatre trip. Lovely restaurant with lovely friendly staff. Good choice of dishes on the menu. I chose homemade lasagna which was absolutely delicious. My friend had soup to start then Gnocchetti Sardi al Ragu as his main. He highly recommends it. We shared a garlic bread too. Very reasonably priced. Lovely food and a lovely atmosphere. Will absolutely be returning.

Friendly staff. Clean and tidy.

Cheap and good quality Italian cuisine for Liverpool

My girlfriend and I went to this place two weeks ago. We had a great time, truly run by Italians, not like many who only have an Italian name. Excellent pasta, we also had the roast chicken which was cooked really well. We found ourselves just as the name says in FAMILY. We will happily return.

The great service made our first visit to this hidden away gem.

A wonderful little restaurant just off a busy street. We're so glad we found this as it was the best meal of our city break. The stuffed pasta options that we got, ravioli and tortelloni, were amazing. Service was polite and attentive. Brilliant little spot.

Sadly we didn’t particularly enjoy the food. It was alright but a bit basic and lacked taste across most of the dishes we ordered (seafood pasta, burrata pasta, pizza, lasagne). The pasta was also too hard, more than what you’d call ‘al dente’. The burger and tiramisu were nice so no complaints there. I’d recommend Cucina di Vincenzo instead for Italian food in Liverpool.

Lovely meal. We will be back. 🙂

A charming restaurant. We visited on a Monday evening and were warmly welcomed. There is a good choice of food and drink, supplemented by the specials board. We enjoyed our meals, all freshly made and of good quality. We ended the meal with espresso martinis - one of the best I've ever tried! Highly recommend- if I was local, I'd be a regular!

It's underground so the signal is a bit poor, but Wi-Fi is available. I had pasta for the meal, but there are many types of noodles such as flat noodles and gnocchi depending on the menu ✨ The owner was also friendly and nice.

The food was great. The service at the end left a little to be desired, as we wanted to pay the bill and the waiters pretended they didn't see us or said they would bring the bill but they didn't.

Great meal and service, from Georgia.

Talk about judging a book by its cover…….we went in tonight for a family dinner 2 adults and 2 teenage boys with no booking. There was 2 free tables and we were told the only table they had was a high top breakfast bench with 4 stools. After 20 mins we had to ask for menus and basically beg to be served. We then asked could we avail of the empty tables which was denied even though they were suddenly available when a table of 4 people also ‘walk ins’ arrived. They were automatically served before us also. Throughout the night the ‘manager/owner’ behind the bar continuously looked down his nose at us and dismissed our requests until it came to us paying our £200 bill which obviously shocked him. At this point he then apologised for the ‘table mishap’ and wished us a good night. He obviously thought we were a waste of a table for him but I guess he thought wrong. Poor service food was ok definitely would not recommend or would not return. Would advise said man to work on his people skills.

Amazing restaurant, super clean with a very nice staff. The food was excellent. I hope I could come back again but I hadn't the opportunity. If you like (actual) italian food, that is for sure the place to go !

This place could be so much better, the staff are brilliant and very welcoming, it is a Sardinian Italian welcome that is really warm. The lasagne was really good, the risotto was a bit bland.

Very very very good!!! Perfect!!!

Came for my birthday, and was not disappointed with our recommendation from the hotel. The staff were professional and friendly. Good as authentic and very tasty, atmosphere was terrific, my sister in law is Italian, so I got happy birthday sang to me in Italian, a truly wonderful evening, the wine was good also 🍷need to return asap

We visited here for a family birthday on recommendation from an Italian friend and it did not disappoint. Superb home cooked Italian food using top quality ingredients. We all had starters, main and dessert with Wine and it was special. Thank very much we will definitely visit again.

A proper authentic Italian restaurant. Real food cooked by a real chef. Excellent value for money too. Highly recommended.

Really good food serving its purpose and the service itself made it even better. It was quite late, but they didn’t rush us through the dinner, and we even squeezed down a dessert. A really delicious tiramisu.

A brilliant Italian, great food at a very reasonable price! The best cannoli I've had in a long time!

Very busy family run Italian.Food was very tasty the pork meatballs for starters were very nice😋

Bedienung sehr freundlich, das Essen hat gut geschmeckt.

Lovely restaurant great food good value. Easy to walk past on the way to the shopping centre.... Don't ! Go in even though it doesn't look busy. Lots of families and couples of all ages were in and out throughout our visit. Looking forward to going again .

It took more than 20 minutes to order our food and we had to ask for our drinks to be served after 1 hour! Then we had only had bread to eat and half of it was so hard it was inedible. Then the food came and only the ravioli was tasty. The gambas had no taste at all, just the serano ham they were wrapped in. The waitress apologised and said we would not be charged for the service. As if we were going to give them a tip! The least they could have done was offer us the drinks for free! Will NEVER visit again!

Food took a long while and half of it had already gone cold. Not much meat on the lamb, chicken was dry and hard like stale bread.

Really enjoyed the roast piglet, well cooked with a delicious sauce and a rare dish to find. Service was very warm and friendly too.

Lovely food in a traditional environment. Great staff and good service…

Couldn't fault great staff and fabulous food

A lovely first time experience! Amazing food and wine!

Terrific authentic Sardinian dishes at reasonable prices. Very much a family restaurant with some great menu options. Service is very friendly, if a little slow on a busy weekend. Nice setting, although nothing special. Overall great food, friendly service, decent prices. Well worth a visit, you won't be disappointed.

Enjoyed my meal but the restaurant was too hot so I didn't have a sweet or a coffee and left early. It came recommended and was happy to have a meal here

Stunning food Gorgeous atmosphere Superb staff Amazing

Wow. How I have I not been here before :) Saw this family run Sardinian restaurant mentioned in the local newspaper as being highly rated so decided to visit. The paper was not wrong! Fantastic little independent restaurant with a lovely feel; interesting menu and some classic Sardinian flavours. Beautiful bruschetta with mushrooms, sarda and truffle cheese to start, followed by ravioli tartufo - with mushrooms and truffle butter 😻 Perfect flavours and portions. Dessert was a delicate apple tart. So many choices on the menu that I wanted. I must come here again and again in future! The beer was Ichnusa. As it should be in a Sardinian restaurant. As it should be. Definitely recommended. I’d say you should book. Could have walked in tonight but get the impression it’s popular later in the week. Yum.

Excellent quality food and service. The menu options were refreshingly different from most Italian restaurants.

Everything in this place was tasty and well designed, Nice service aswel.

The food was amazing, really authentic and tasty, staff was lovely too

I love this place! The food is delicious and the staff is super friendly

We called in for lunch. Food excellent. House wine a bit dry for our taste but drinkable. Our waiter was efficient and friendly. There were only a few other people in there so the atmosphere was quiet. But that's fine with us but may not suit everyone. Will go again definitely.

serveuse sympathique italienne MAIS 1h d’attente pour recevoir un verre et l’antipasto. 2h après, toujours pas reçu le plat ! la cuisine et le service n’arrivent pas à suivre avec les tables qu’ils proposent. la serveuse ne s’excuse pas vers nous, nous sommes invisibles, jusqu’à ce qu’elle capte notre signe de main. Cerise sur le gâteau, leur "fameux lasagnes" n'étaient que épilation de pâtes sans "ragù" après 2h d'attente !

Proprietario scortese e maleducato. Ci ha cacciato in malo modo perché avevamo un cagnolino al seguito, trattando male anche la cameriera alla quale stavamo chiedendo informazioni. Non posso valutare il cibo, ma non mangerei mai in un posto in cui il proprietario è così antipatico. Lo sconsiglio.

Great venue - co-owner is excellent, the food is brilliant and the atmosphere is superb. Will definitely return.

We dined here around a month ago, and I still think about the quality of the food here! The setting inside was beautiful and felt very homely. The service was brilliant and they were very pleasant and kind to us. The pappardelle burrata was amazing and was my first time trying a burrata and would definitely recommend the restaurant for its family style home made food!

To describe a visit to this wonderful family restaurant, you can't, you have to experience it yourself. Great food, atmosphere and people. A little bit of Italy in a big city

If you like real italian pizza, go somewhere else. It is not often that I nly give ONE start, but all in all the food experience was one star. With an average of 4,7 they must be fantastic at all other italian meals, so go for that. Here I had the second worst pizza in my life. The worst thing is, that they thought it was good. Give the chefs a free holiday in Italy to study pizzamaking

Authentic Italian restaurant with home-like atmosphere and reasonable price. I had Fettuccine pistachio; it was boss, the sauce was perfectly creamy with the mix of pancetta, which makes this dish go perfectly well. Recommended for all pasta lovers😁

Hidden gem of a place! Avoid the fancy Italian places go here. Totally enjoyed staff, food and wine! Priced right great casual Italian!

The food was really delicious here. The staff are also kind and friendly. They even help you in recommending. The service was also fast. I would really like to visit it again.

Great food but a very hot night.......air con needs improving. Not a bad complaint for UK weather.

The food was delicious and great value. Claudia provided Brilliant service - cannot recommend La Famiglia enough.

Homemade pasta, fresh ingredients, and a relaxed atmosphere. Can't recommend highly enough.

They ask if you have any Special Occasions, and then don’t bother to do anything when you let them know it’s someone’s birthday. The staff take the mick out of you if you order something and then take a few things off the top of the dish. Not a great atmosphere at all.

Food was excellent and the service was very good.

Wonderful restaurant outstanding food and the staff are amazing. Enjoyed every bite and very reasonably priced. Will definitely return and can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough. Every aspect first class.

Wszystko pyszne, świeże i bardzo miła obsluga :)

Was recommended by a family member so we decided to give it a try. Lovely fresh food, wine was delicious, reasonably priced, would definitely recommend you give this place a try.

The foot was amazing. Portions don’t seem excessive on the eye but they fill you up! The quality of the food was great and for the price on the meals is reasonable, drinks were expensive though.

Friendly staff and wonderful food. Very nice!

Feels like l just got the best food in Liverpool. The freshness, flavour and texture of the food was perfect. The staff is the loveliest and they want to make sure you are having a great experience. I can't describe my happiness right now, words are not enough at all.

Good Italian vibes. The menu is quite authentic. We had the burrata with caponata as a starter which was really good. As mains we had the pasta with pistachio and pancetta, good but not as good as we expected, the sauce was a bit bland and the pancetta was slightly burnt. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Lovely independent Italian with a straightforward menu and enjoyable specials

Thank you for a great night...Food authentic and sooo good, ravioli was delicious and highly recommended.. nice friendly atmosphere and very reasonably priced

The resturant was so relaxing and cute, it's such a perfect setting for a date. I had the house white wine and it was so smooth and sweet. The portions were very big, I wasn't expecting it to be honest but was very happy with how much we were offered. The owner was lovely and very hospitable. The bread was too good not to eat as soon as it came to the table, I promise you there was more before the picture was taken haha.

I'm trying to eat more fish at the moment so though where better to try than my favourite restaurant in Liverpool. The seabass dish was absolutely delicious and as always the service was fabulous. I can't reccomend this place enough!

Brilliant service, really delicious food (best Italian food I’ve had in a long time) and a lovely atmosphere. Hidden gem. Highly recommend.

Authentic Italian cuisine. So delicious. Atmosphere was calm and relaxing.

Our 3rd visit!! Love this place… Always fantastic and friendly welcome ! Amazing food and great prices too👌👌
