Laviano’s Italian Restaurant in Bath and North East Somerset

Staff lovely food brilliant on the expensive

Extremely attentive staff, very welcoming and friendly. Great selection of food, and delicious too! 😋

We came this evening for a 30th birthday celebration meal and it was so lovely, the staff are so friendly and welcoming The second they found out it was my birthday they came out with a dessert covered in candles and all sang which was very sweet. The food is delicious! The staff are wonderful! It’s a lovely atmosphere inside where you can see the chefs making the food. Located directly across from a car park so very easy to get too. Highly recommend if you’re in the area, 10 out of 10 restaurant, we’ll definitely go back!

Friendly staff, exceptional food and service. Highly recommend.

Service was fine, but the meal was bland; flavours had the equivalent depth of something from a work's canteen. Unlikely to return.

Just perfect! Great food and friendly, efficient service.

From the moment we entered, the staff were superb. Very attentive,polite, and nothing was an issue. Drinks ordered and served promptly ( lush Rose Pinot Blush, by the way). Food ordered, and again came fairly promptly. And I must say so glad it did, was lush. Will definitely recommend this place and plan another trip soon. Cannot believe this was our 1st time, definitely not the last..

Absolutely love lavianos! The pizzas and pastas are gorgeous! I’ve never tried something new there and been disappointed. The portions are very generous and we’ve never left there hungry. The staff are super friendly, we had the 2 women serve us and they’re so nice and accommodating. Everything is always very clean, and we can see the staff always keeping on top of it. The coffees and desserts are lush too. Will always recommend Laviano’s to anyone visiting the near by area!

Took my parents out for food here as me and my partner love it and they enjoyed it so much they already want to come back. Food is stunning but the service is incredible too which makes the whole thing!

Such a lovely friendly and welcoming restaurant.The food is amazing. If we ever come back this way we would definitely call in for another meal. 😃

Friendly Staff,Great food.We will be back.

Good food and always a good service would highly recommend

We have eaten here on many occasions,just myself & my husband or with a group of friends or family,always felt very welcome & relaxed,staff are hard working & very friendly,but mostly the food is excellent,so tasty & perfectly cooked,the chefs do a fantastic job! we’ve never had any complaints! We ate there last night & I had Pollo Spinaci,it was divine 😋 Also lovely to see little Angelo back there 🥰

I came across this place while working away. Highly Recommended, great quality food. Fast, friendly service. Very reasonable prices.

Food was very high quality and staff were very friendly. Went for our anniversary dinner and had a lovely time. We were next to a family with a loud baby but that isn't the restaurant's fault. The restaurant is family friendly.

This is quite possibly my favourite Italian restaurant in the Bristol area. I've eaten here twice now and it just gives proper Italian family vibes. We were greeted by name which was such a lovely touch. Order was taken in a timely fashion by the lovely staff members. The food was great as always. I cannot wait to go back. Top tip: if you like garlic, ask for their garlic oil. It comes in a little pot with actual garlic in it and it's amazing on top of pizza.

I really loved the restaurant. The welcome was pleasant and the food excellent and in large quantities.

Excellent food once again friendly staff great place to eat. Eaten here many times special occasions and just family meals never had a bad experience. Great restaurant in Keynsham

This is my local restaurant. The lunchtime deals are great. We always have the same thing so I can't truthfully comment on lots of dishes.

I don't normally seek out Italian restaurants, but I am very pleased that I did in this case. Very friendly and engaging staff. Really good food.

We visited on Saturday evening and were definitely not disappointed! The servers were all friendly, attentive (but not overbaring) with a great atmosphere all round. The decor was lovely, and the food absolutely delicious! Looking forward to returning again.

Had heard good things and do love Italian food. Reckon la famiglia is way better. Would not return .

Very enjoyable evening, thank you.

Checked menu when I arrived home. No clams, one king prawn head with no middle although plural shown. Thin tasteless sauce no sign of garlic. Lots of tagliatelle and prawns. Lovely meals here in the past so chose for birthday. Three of us had this meal other two meals were fine. Very disappointed.

Allways friendly efficient and lovely food , looooove the seafood 🍕

Traffic was a block on the M5 , so we found this restaurant, and we were very impressed. Shall return when we can.

This place was highly recommended to us so we’ve had a few takeaways, every time I’ve gone to collect the restaurant has been packed, the food and the service has been 10/10. We decided last week to book a table for this evening for a family meal, the staff are absolutely lovely, it honestly feels like you are having dinner at a family members home, the restaurant is spotless, the kitchen is in full view, the service is faultless with a smile and the food is amazing. There is free parking outside if you are lucky enough to find a space but failing that there is a big, well lit car park that is free and only a short walk away. If you haven’t tried this place before, definitely give it a go, you will not be disappointed 👏

Great service, friendly staff. Large selection of pasta and pizzas on menu. Lovely atmosphere.

A wonderful restaurant,staff are really lovely and friendly. A great menu with something for everyone. Highly recommend

Stopped off for dinner on a work trip, the staff were great and looked after me! Fantastic choice across the menu and a wide range of drinks to choose from. Home made tiramisu topped off the meal beautifully! 10/10 will defo return!

Lovely food, great service, excellent lunchtime prices. Couldn't ask for much more, to be honest.

We went to this beautiful restaurant last night 30/4/2024.There was 5 of us in our party, All 5 of us said it was the best food we have ever had eating out.The restaurant was full and you would have thought we was the only people in there as the staff were very attentive and very professional. The restaurant and toilet facilities were spotless everything was so clean,we can see why the restaurant was fully booked. The standard of the food was fantastic and absolutely delicious 🤤 This was our first visit and defo won’t be our last. Very impressed and glad we chose such a brilliant restaurant to come to,we will see you very soon.

Absolutely outstanding in every way; where to even start? Eight of us converged on Laviano’s from as far afield as the Isle of Wight, and we were not disappointed! The staff were genuinely charismatic and friendly, they were perfectly attentive without being overbearing and made us feel so welcome. The food was phenomenal, everything was delicious and had an authentic feel. The kids menu had a good balance of choice but the main menu, with its wide selection of dishes and top quality, stands out as being one of the best. Dinner at Laviano’s was an absolute pleasure and we’ll be making every effort to go again.

Been here twice, both times for lunchtime works outings. The food is definitely not cheap, but you do get very good quality, tasty food. I’ve enjoyed every single thing that I’ve eaten here and it all looks delicious. The staff are very friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble, The decor is clean and modern, and very appealing to the eyes. Lovely place to celebrate a special occasion.

Wonderful! Fantastic traditional menu Great atmosphere Friendly staff Extremely clean toilets

Fantastic food.very friendly staff

Was really looking forward to the evening but having sat down at 7:30 we were paying the bill at 8:30. Far far too quick with no break between courses. This could be explained the fact that a large portion of the food appears to be bought in or frozen (calamari is a particular example). Food was ok but nothing special. The one saving grace was the staff were lovely but sadly we won’t be back until some changes are made

The staff are all terrific and super helpful and the food was equally excellent. Good portions and not too expensive. The atmosphere is also good. I would say it was mostly larger parties when we were there (On a Saturday night) and less of a couples vibe. But that wasn’t an issue for us. Fully recommended

This was our first visit here but will certainly not be our last. Great welcome. We had a perfect table. Lovely busy atmosphere and an open kitchen. All of our food was excellent and the service could not be bettered. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. Fab Tiramisu! We thought the prices were pretty good. Always appreciate when the staff say goodbye and thanks for coming. LOVED IT !!

Speedy service, great pasta lunch. Will go again.

Great hosts nothing too much trouble. Fabulous pizza

Our food was good my husbands was tasty but small his veg of the day was new baby potatoes which consisted of one baby potatoe sliced a a few small slicesof corgette so not god value for his meal

Not the cheapest, but excellent food, friendly efficient staff and and a good atmosphere

Went as a party of 7 for a Birthday celebration. The service was excellent. Friendly, light-hearted and fast! The food was truly delicious and the wine choice perfect. We weren't rushed but we were well attended. A great place to visit and catch-up.

We are regulars at Lavianos but this was a special celebration lunch for 35 and Lavianos certainly did me proud. Everything was wonderfully organised and the food was absolutely delicious. Excellent service from Angelo and his team. I cannot praise them enough and all my guests were thrilled with the excellent food and service. So good that I’ll be back with a small group of friends on Friday!

Lovely restaurant! Food is exceptional. All the staff are lovely and welcoming. Excellent

13 of us ate there yesterday. The food was beautiful and the staff were brilliant - warm, engaging and patient.

Visited with a larger party for a birthday gathering. Lovely food & great service throughout.

One of the Best Spaghetti alla Carbonara I had

Absolutely brilliant. Nothing more to say other than we will be back.

Booked a table for dinner...the service was impeccable as was the food....portions are very generous and tasty

Good selection of traditional Italian pasta and pizza dishes. Friendly staff.

Busy but great atmosphere and lovely food

Lovely food, lovely staff, really quick service, especially considering they had a Christmas party in at the same time

Very average (non authentic) Italian food. I had a pasta dish, girlfriend had a pizza. Food was tasty but not authentic quality italian ingredients

Amazing place. First visit here and staff really friendly. Food and drink arrived really fast for how busy it was and my pizza was amazing

Great food and Great service. Will definitely come back.

Amazing as usual. Staff are mint. Nothing too much trouble for them..

Went for a lunch . Very good menu and prices reasonable . Staff very friendly

We love it here. The food is always good and the staff are nice. The veggie lasagna is lush!

Excellent service and food. Well worth a visit.

Great food, friendly team and good value for money!

Really lovely lunch. The food was excellent. I had the penne matriciana followed by a huge wedge of delicious lemon cheesecake. The staff are wonderful. Booking is advisable, especially on an evening.

Delicious as always! Never had a bad meal in the 8 years we've been going to Laviano's! Amazing customer service. Thank you for always being fabulous!

I’ve been to Lavianos about 30 times now and I’m never disappointed with the quality of their food. Not to mention their outstanding customer service and making you feel welcome. Absolutely brilliant as always!

Absolutely lovely Italian restaurant, staff are friendly, restaurant is beautifully decorated and the food is outstanding!!

Very enjoyable experience. Will return again very soon

Fantastic atmosphere and great food

Lovely food, staff and service. Will definitely be back. It would be good to see more vegan options on the menu. The food we had was delicious though!

First time here and loved it Lovely place bigger than expected Service fantastic reasonable prices with plenty of choice Quite busy on a Friday but perfect atmosphere Definitely be visiting again

Lovely restaurant , lasagna was Outstanding!!! So clean and Lovely place , only give 4 stars as I didn't enjoy the Pizza, the pizza base wasn't very nice it ruined the pizza , shame they don't do just a standard tomato base . But I will be back again :)

Lavianos is a lovely restaurant with amazing food. I went with my friends for a birthday and we all enjoyed it. You definitely get what you pay for here so I do appreciate the prices

Beautiful charming Italian with real positive vibes from staff you get served THE best food. We are regulars now as pizzas just don't come tastier anywhere else 😍😍

Very good in all areas! Highly recommended!

Amazing food, great service, fantastic

Well served homemade dishes. Good value.

Just had another excellent meal here, yes prices have increased a bit but where hasn’t it, worth every penny, food, staff, service and cleanliness were fantastic and nice to see almost all the staff have been here for years which is always a good sign, we will continue to return so nice to receive good service thank you.

Great place, excellent food. Will return.

Excellent service and the most authentic Italian I've been to in Bristol felt like I was Italy again

Delicious food, great service. I visit often as it's well worth the money! Special thanks to Angelo, Chiara and Amir!

Excellent service, accommodated us with a party of 14. Excellent food hot and plentiful, could take left overs home. Happy staff. Will eat here again Thank You

Came for my birthday. Lovely staff. Great food. Treated very well. Food delicious. Definitely return.

Excellent service food absolutely delicious staff superb will definitely be going back

good servce great prices took my wife there on saturday 25 march for her birthday the only thing that could have better was it wasnt very warm where we were seated at back of restaurant not far from large windows i think in winter months they should have thick curtains to pull across i will still go back there nice place food very good

Fantastic food and service will be back

Great place great food and great staff

It was my brother's birthday and I had been invited out to Laviano's for a meal. What a lovely place, food was great and it was quite reasonably priced. The only reason the service was 4star was because nobody came up to us during our meal and asked how everything was. Service charge was also added at 10%. I disagree with this and it shouldn't be added. Allow us to tip you. Food was amazing and it is definitely worth having a meal here to try Italian food. Will see you again.

Food was lovely, but prices have gone up a lot, and for a pint of Morreti £6.95, understand the cost of living gone up and watch out for the service charge as well.

Fantastic pizzas and service ! Very reasonably priced

Great food and great prices. Child friendly too

Excellent food and service, and great lunchtime offer.

Lovely food. Great service. A lovely evening enjoyed.

Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere, just lacking Italian food. The service was impeccable and the vibe is really warm and welcoming. But the wine list has no Italian reds on it, which is weird for an Italian restaurant. The breaded mozzarella and mushrooms were clearly out of a pack and the salad dressing that went with them was the least Italian dressing you could imagine. The carbonara was made with danish ham rather than pancetta and all the tomatoes were unripe. Some more seasonal produce on the menu and perhaps the chefs should visit Italy. Saying all that, it’s a lovely spot for a bite to eat.

Loud, food was good, and service excellent.

Great meal celebration for my Son's Birthday. Evening was spot on, made it a special day.

We have visited several times with family and friends since moving to the area and always had great meals with fantastic hospitality. Our young teen daughter decided for her birthday that she wanted a bit of independence and to have a meal with a couple of good school friends without parents tonight, and as a big Italian food fan decided this was where they’d like to go. They were all made to feel extremely welcome from the time they arrived to the time they paid the bill and left, and had a great evening and meal. The staff were very helpful and friendly toward them, which helped three 14 year old girls who were initially very apprehensive about being out in a restaurant by themselves, feel very much at ease and have a fantastic time. They said the food was excellent, as we have always found it and came back home buzzing and feeling very grown up! Thank you to the team at Laviano’s for not only a fantastic meal but also for making this such a positive experience for them all.

Had a lovely meal here with a friend, food and service excellent thank you!

Food was good but the drinks menu is suspect, how can a pint of lager shandy cost 50p more than a pint of larger and when I pointed it out to the waitress I was told 'the manager likes to price it like that', I've included the menu and receipt, shame on you. PS that dash should be 50% of the pint a dash could cost someone their license.

Always great here, love the place & the staff

Always excellent pizzas, service good and attentive
