La Parmigiana is, without a doubt, one of the finest eateries in Swansea. Whether one is looking for a snack, a treat, or a hearty meal, they will be able to find it here; and, in my experience, it is all delicious. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, as is the owner, and the entire establishment has a distinctive and charming character. If you are visiting Swansea, or are a local who has yet to discover it, I highly recommend passing by La Parmigiana.

Absolutely delighted with a delivery of a Birthday dinner to my Auntie, who we have not been able to see since last year and we miss her so very much! We can't go out to eat with her, but we could have delicious food sent to her, so we did with La Parmigiana! We were not disappointed, she totally loved her Antipasti platter, with Mozzarella and Tomato, Chocolate Cannelloni and San Pellegrino, saying it was delicious and looked beautiful! Thanks so much to the restaurant and delivery staff, who also sang Happy Birthday to her on our behalf!! Lush! Highly recommending this very lovely Italian!

Birthday Meal today and a visit to La Parmigiana would have been on the cards , But its lockdown. So its an online order which is their way of coping in this situation.The website is easy to manage and it has the option to order days in advance and to select a timespot for home delivery - brilliant. Good selection of food ,we had a starter of Antipasto for 2 -absolutely amazing.For Mains we had Lasagne and Bolognese, these are not your run of the mill presentations but are in a class of their own and the best we have ever tasted. Then dessert which included Tiramisu - we couldn't go wrong it was fabulous. A restaurant you could easily ignore if you passed it but don't be deceived it is fantastic and well worth a visit. You will have to book though. Don't wait for the lockdown to end log on to the website and book a meal, deliver service is great, selection is good and the meal will be fabulous don't miss it.

My 84 year old Mum was wasting away in hospital and living on the other side of the country I was flummoxed how I could help get her a decent meal. I called the restaurant and the most delightful lady called Francesca said she would help me out. She provided a beautifully presented meal of garlic bread, lasagne, salad and a coffee latte. It arrived hot and Mum said it was as tasty as the meal she had sitting under the Rialto Bridge in Venice!!!! So take a bow Francesca you are an angel and I cannot thank you enough for going that extra mile. I shall definitely be coming to your place when I am next down in Swansea!!! Extremely good value for money too!!!!!!

This restaurant came highly recommended and did not disappoint. The staff and decor were friendly from the outset and the food choices excellent. Fixed price 3 course multiple menu option is a great style of eating and the fact it has no alcohol licence only adds to it as you are able to take your own wine etc with no corkage charge. The food was very tasty and had a great fresh feel about it. Would highly recommend the sea bass cooked in foil as a main course as it is superb. Have heard great things about their lunchtime menu also, so will be giving that a try next. Well worth a visit and you can top up on your Italian foodstuff shopping while you are there.

A small rustic restaurant where you bring your own alcohol and there’s no charge for corkage. A set menu that changes very regularly. There is a choice of four meals for starters and mains. We both had swordfish starters cooked in pecorino cheese with raisins and a helping of salad. We had olives and garlic bread as an aperitif. For mains we had veal on the bone with salad roast potatoes and onions. Our desserts were a raspberry sorbet and a trifle. Service was good and there was no rushing courses. Recommend it if you want good quality food at a reasonable price too.

Well where to start first of all the food I received was nothing like the photos online. My starter consisted of 3 small prawns with bits of chilli on the plate on a bed of rocket with 1 small tomatoe cut in half!!main course was veal thinly sliced 2 roast potatoes few green beans and desert of lemoncello that was the best part all in all set meal £25. I am gobsmacked to think they can possibly charge that much for such small portions it was nothing like an Italian restaurant nothing short of daylight or night time robbery should have been half that price admittedly you could bring your own alcohol or not but that is beside the point. I shall definitely not go back there.

We brought our own drinks and there's no corkage charge as found in other places. We all had different meals for each of the three courses and were all pleased with our choices. Wonderful food in a relaxed place. We will certainly be returning again but make sure you book ahead since it is so popular.

I hesitate to share this review but (out of sheer altruism) I must say that this restaurant is just brilliant. My hesitation comes from the fact that it's small and if I recommend it, I might not get a table here. We were a small family party and made our restaurant booking just at the beginning of the evening, so we were lucky to get a table. When we arrived, it was buzzing. The food was sublime - I'm used to good food as I live in France. What made this restaurant special was not only the excellent food but the friendliness of the staff and the lovely atmosphere. Very highly recommended.

Visited this lovely Italian restaurant for an evening meal in late August just after they had reopened after a refurbishment. The new decor hasn’t spoilt the very relaxed atmosphere. The quirky idea of not having a written menu on the table, with Francesca reading from her hand written aide memoire, and expanding on the recipes as only an Italian could do, makes the anticipation of what is to arrive at your table all the more exciting.

This is a hidden gem in the Swansea back-streets. Don't expect to read a menu, because you don't get one. The dishes available on the day are read out to you and you take your own wine with no corkage charge. At £25 a head for three courses it's a real bargain. The couvert is lovely with great quality olives and wonderful bread. I started with stuffed baby squid cooked to perfection and followed with a veal cutlet in a great sauce. There are some pasta favourites on offer as you would expect because this is real Italian food. Only open for limited hours so check it out and get your name down for a table you won't regret it.
