Lovely food, best garlic bread in the area. Always lovely staff and very accommodating. Little bit cramped but worth it for the food quality

We visit St. Albans very frequently - mainly to take visitors to the fantastic cathedral in this delightful Roman town. As we wanted a bite to eat we decided to try L'Italiana. It looked very busy (a good sign) and more appealing than the chain Zizzi. The name of the restaurant makes it very clear what kind of food you can expect and the menu is indeed hugely derivative. Nothing wrong with that as everyone loves Italian food. As it turned out their pizzas and pastas were good although they lacked the wow factor that you probably need to go to central London for. The service was courteous and efficient.

Stopped in for a birthday meal. Lovely food and very clean restaurant, however one staff member who served us was very rude and it took an excessively long time to be able to get anyone's attention to actually order our food. Were going to order dessert but didn't because by the time we got someone's attention it was very late and we had to get home. The other staff member on was lovely but seemed very rushed off her feet.

The restaurant was busy and extremely noisy but as it was a Saturday night i guess expected. However, they just did not have enough staff and hence the service was terrible. One main meal arrived 10 minutes after everyone else's on our table. This was not the problem though, the problem was the way the staff dealt with it. Just a simple tap on the shoulder and a free glass of wine would have made everything ok but all we got was a scowl. Their pizza special was the worst pizza I have ever had. We left early.

The menu was full and impressive, My pasta dish was one of the best I have ever tasted and just enough although too much to have a sweet as well, there were three of us and we all had something different and were all delighted with our choices.

Disappointing. Table 20 minutes late, staff unconcerned and left us stood by door. Didn’t improve much as they didn’t seem that bothered by our custom. Parents, who rarely complain about anything equally not impressed. Food was good apart from undercooked pizza which was ‘due to the oil’. Probably my last visit. I prefer restaurants like this to chains but this experience may change my mind.

Visited on Saturday afternoon and it was very busy but we were given a table and we had about 90mins before the next booking which was plenty of time for our meal. The service was efficient and friendly with the children being welcomed.

The food was absolutley delicious and portions were generous without being over facing. Would 100% visit next time we are in St Albans

My granddaughter absolutely loves this restaurant and we’ve been coming to Italiana in Shenley for years, and more recently, because of logistics St Albans. She wanted to bring her parents, so they could share the love that she has for their mussels, prawns and clams in spaghetti with white wine and garlic sauce. She chose to bring them on her fifth birthday! It was a last-minute decision and my daughter sent me a picture to say how much she was enjoying herself, I called the restaurant and arranged for her to have an ice cream with a candle at the end of her meal. The staff all came to sing happy birthday to her, and this was such a lovely gesture considering it was last minute and I wasn’t even there., it was arranged on the phone, as I wanted to make something special to her for her birthday memories. Thank you, Italiana, It may have been a small everyday thing for you, but she will remember this, and we really appreciate that you made it special for her 🩷.

Poor start as we had a confirmed booking for 7.30 but were told there was no table available until 7.45 and to come back then. After a bit of discussion as to why, waiters moved another couple to a different table and got us seated. Very embarrassing for all parties. Still didn't actually take drinks order till 7.45. The food from specials menu was excellent. Very busy restaurant and maybe not enough waiting staff.

We visited knowing our time was limited, but a late-arriving guest delayed our order. The food took nearly 40 minutes, and before we could finish, we were rudely told to leave. The waiter was condescending and as we were leaving he was speaking about us to another table. To management: Customers come for a good meal, not trouble. Kindness matters, especially for a local restaurant. With rude staff, people will turn to the internet to express their frustrations. Terrible service, would not recommend!!

Food was terrible I asked for Margherita and I got a pizza with only mozzarella on top no tomato. Extremely low quality ingredients , tomato had no taste at all, oil the lowest type available, mozzarella was not mozzarella but a disgusting cheese, even the mushrooms were disgusting ! You can see the picture of the bill. A total rip off. 10 pounds for Two Small bottles of Peoni! Not to Mention the awful “pizza” Which is not pizza but cheese on toast. And I paid 87 pounds for getting a tummy ache. Steer clear of this place, much better heading to Mc Donald’s. And obviously none of the staff is Italian or has any clue about Italian food. Total waste of time and money.

Went for late lunch Sunday at 5pm. My friend and i were not very hungry so we ordered 1 main to share, large glass of wine and a soft drink. The waiter that served us was annoyed we only ordered 1 main and treated us with distain. The restaurant was not busy at that time. We would never return to the restaurant because of his attitude. The dish we ordered was delicious and very flavoursome. I really enjoyed my glass of wine and would have ordered dessert if we were treated better. Our experience was ruined because of the waiters behaviour towards us. We are fortunate St Albans has other good Italian restaurants for us to eat in.

I have been going here for years but on my visit last week with a friend I noticed there were a few changes particularly in the pricing and the quality of the food, it wasn’t up to the usual standard ( a distinct lack of tomatoes in the tomato (Napoli) sauce and smaller portions. However my biggest bug bear was when the bill arrived, we were asked if we wanted to split the bill, which we did, I even told the waitress what the split was, unfortunately she decided that she would make up her own pricing and rounded it up by 90p each we were not offered a receipt and only on checking our bank statements were aware of what she had done. Please check your bill carefully and ask to look at hand held card machine.

Lovely Hotel restaurant which I have never visited before. Although our visit was a sombre occasion the restaurant was beautiful and the meals and staff were exceptional. I would recommend The Belvedere for any special occasion!

★★★★★ We had an absolutely fantastic dining experience at this Italian restaurant! The food was authentic, full of flavour, and truly felt like real, proper Italian cuisine. Every dish was cooked to perfection, and you could tell that high-quality ingredients were used. The service was excellent—attentive, friendly, and efficient. The staff made us feel welcome and ensured we had everything we needed. On top of that, the value for money was outstanding, especially considering the quality of the food and the overall experience. If you’re looking for a genuine Italian meal that ticks all the boxes—amazing food, great service, and fair prices—this is the place to go. We’ll definitely be returning!

Food fantastic, service fantastic, all staff fantastic but the star draw is Eddie who should be on a stage. Worth going just to meet him!
