Moltobuono in Bristol, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Well, actually it’s Sardinian, but don’t let that put you off! The menu is quite limited with main courses of pizza and only one sort of pasta but go on, indulge yourself, this place is marvellous and the linguine is wonderful and cooked to perfection- it’s probably the best I’ve ever tasted (and, believe me, I’ve eaten a lot of linguine) To finish your meal off, try the Sardinian digestif mirta, you’ll be glad you did. Thanks, guys, for a wonderful meal.

I came here for an evening meal with four friends. We hadn't booked and they were very busy (a queue formed outside shortly after we arrived) but luckily they managed to squeeze us in. I'd suggest booking to avoid bitter disappointment. We shared some white wine which was very nice and then some foccacia which was delicious, particularly the garlic one. For my main dish I had a mushroom and garlic pasta which was gorgeous. Really really tasty. Everyone else was satisfied with their food apart from one friend who complained about the portion sizes. Fantastic atmosphere and friendly service.

Such a great atmosphere at this restaurant. Delicious food- recommend the focaccia. We were sat upstairs with the fairy lights and hops adorning the ceiling. Great view of the street and the Saturday evening activity and service was fast even though they had a couple of big tables. Staff were friendly, accommodating and attentive. Will definitely return next time we are in Bristol l. Food was too good to wait and take pictures!

Delicious food. The pizzas were stunning. In reflection we should have had the pasta which looked even nicer. Anyway, this place is heaving and we had a reservation. The buzy, buzzing atmosphere is something you just need to relax into and let it charm you. We had Greco di tufo wine - our favourite - absolutely delicious and one of the better grecos we’ve had in the U.K. a really delicious antipasto to share (large portions) were followed by wonderful pillowy pizzas. We didn’t have room for dessert but the couple next to us demolished very tasty looking desserts with glee. This place attracts all ages especially younger people and students. The menu includes those delicious, favourite but simple dishes you rarely see outside Italy like tagliatelle with butter and sage and cacio E pepe which when it’s good is a rare find

Very nice place full of atmosphere and the host Simone and staff amazing . Only in Naples I can find a pizza like that simply the best.

Went for an early pre theatre supper before we went to see Hamilton. Couldn’t have had a better experience. Lovely, happy staff many of whom are Italian and a buzzing atmosphere. Feels like you’ve walked into an authentic Italian restaurant. Excellent friendly service. And the pizzas we chose were superb. We will be back!

Although they were very busy here and it was good of them to fit us in, I had the most unpleasant pasta meal. I went for the mushroom and parmesan pasta with butter. What came was as though someone had melted a whole pack of butter over some pasta and then served it. It tasted of basically nothing, and left me feeling sick for the rest of the evening due to how greasy it was. At the end, the bowl was left with a huge pool of butter in it. I could have made the same thing at home for about one pound rather than sixteen...not that I would have wanted to. My wife had pizza, which was okay, though not as good as other pizza places. At £7 a glass, even the cheapest wine here is also overpriced. They seemed like a nice bunch, but we probably won't be coming back

Best pizza in Bristol, if you want to feel like you’re in italy , should definitely visit molto buono, very good atmosphere, food is magic, and the whole staff is very funny and will look after you , in another words this place is something else :)

OUTSTANDING ! Fantastic experience. We ate alot! I visited with 2 friends both learning Italian and this was an exceptional meal and atmosphere. Many Thanks

Not generally the spot for a quiet romantic dinner - it's crowded, noisy and casual - mostly a young crowd. Popular for something to eat before a concert at St George's round the corner. Better book otherwise you might have to queue. Really good pizzas and pasta dishes and a page devoted to vegan meals. Excellent tagliatelle with truffle/pesto etc. Simple dessert offerings - gelato, tiramisu, cannoli etc. Service isn't bad but could be swifter - we would have had dessert/coffee if they had been quicker off the mark but as it was, we ran out of time. Reckon on about £25 a head

Friends had raved about this place so had high expectations but they were far exceeded. From the welcome from Simone and his brilliant comedy having us chuckling almost constantly, the lively atmosphere even early evening, excellent service and then the food .. I've had a memory of a calzone I ate in Italy 20 years ago which is finally matched, and in Bristol. This place feels like a tiny piece of Italy in every way and I'll be back a lot. Simone and his team make you feel like the most important customers in a full restaurant and serve delicious food.

My son and his girlfriend booked to celebrate an event and I thought I'd get in there early and pay for them as a treat. The team at Moltobuono went above and beyond! They gave them such a wonderful evening they were absolutely buzzing afterward. The ristorante made it very special indeed and, whilst I sadly didn't get to try the food, they said it was delicious, filling (they took dessert home with them) and that the staff were wonderful and attentive. Thank you Moltobuono..Grazie mille

Heel vriendelijk en lekker eten..., de kleine Italiaanse vergetelheden namen we er graag bij. Daar ga ik zeker nog terug.

My friends and I went for dinner here. It was our first time. It’s a lovely warm ambience. Simone, the owner, is welcoming and friendly. Kept us laughing through the night. The rest of the staff is responsive and friendly as well. The food was good, flavourful and fresh. You can definitely feel and taste the passion put into this place. Food was served in a timely manner with no compromise on quality for either the pastas or pizzas. The price of the food is quite affordable with the dishes below 20 pounds. I highly recommend Moltobuono and will be returning to try the famous tiramisu!

So child friendly - staff here made my 2 year old’s day - food is excellent as well - I had the Naples pizza - my child had the pasta and ice cream for his dessert - good value and a lovely experience

Right in town to grab a quick bite after running errands. There's also parking spots all around if you are planning on going there. The pasta is fresh and absolutely amazing. The manager is always going above and beyond with everyone and you can see it. Been multiple times for different occasions and they've never disappointed.

Excellent service and the food is AMAZING. Traditional Italian food and service. Staff are amazing and I love the touch of Italian language tips! Highly recommend!

We were lucky to get a table on a Friday evening. This seems like a popular date spot, and caters for a range of people, families seem welcome as well. The pizza was excellent and food arrived quickly. The team of young servers did a very good job working together to serve in a crowded restaurant.

Simone santo subito! We always love come back to MoltoBuono. We just visited on Saturday for our daughter’s eighth birthday. The food, the atmosphere and the staff are just great. Thank you guys for being the best. Valerio

Moltobuono es la pizzería más italiana que puedes encontrar en Bristol. Desde que entras en el local ya se respira ese ambiente familiar y cercano. El establecimiento como tal no dice gran cosa pero tiene un encanto especial. El personal es muy atento y dinámico. La comida 100% Italia. Las pizzas buenísimas. Agradecer a Mauricio por su gentileza y buen hacer. Para repetir y repetir!!!!!

Amazing place for a family. They treated my family like their own and my baby loved it. Definitely coming back soon with friends

This cozy family run restaurant is like a piece of southern Italy hidden in the streets for f Bristol. Zio Simone will give you a warm welcome. Best pizza ever in England!!! I might even dare to say that it feels like you are in Naples. The pasta was also tasty! Don’t miss out on the tiramisu!

Incredible food, happy and friendly staff. Both the pizza and pasta is out of this world. Hats off to the whole team, there’s no coincidence this is the number 1 spot in Bristol for Italian food.

We were lucky to get a table in this very busy restaurant. Best to book ahead if you can. When we arrived the place was buzzing, which is always a good sign. The service was very quick and friendly. The menu is simple but very good Italian food. Pizzas and Pasta, but nothing fancy. The pasta options are just Tagliatelle with simple sauces, but exactly like you get in Italy. Will definitely go here again if we visit Bristol, especially the theatre as just around the corner (but uphill)

The restaurant is very cosy, all people and staff very friendly and the food delicious. When I’ll be back in Bristol I’ll definitely come again to this fabulous Italian restaurant.

Really good pizza and really good pasta. Great atmosphere, excellent service. All in all definitely recommend coming here

We had pizza, tiramisu and a canoli and all of the food was absolutely delicious! Staff very friendly too!

We went on a Sunday night and the place was packed! Easy to understand why - the atmosphere is wonderful, the staff are friendly and service is great. The sourdough pizzas are excellent , but there's not much else on the menu - not a complaint, great if you love pizza. Would recommend, will go back.

My friends and I are often debating the best pizza in Bristol and MB is often mentioned. It didn’t live up to expectations sadly and it was not good value for money at all, these guys have got far far too expensive. £19 for their most expensive pizza?! That’s crazy. The atmosphere in the restaurant is lovely and authentic. We had a garlic pizza bread for entree which came cut up in a bowl and was actually the best part of the meal. This was £5 which is okay We both got pints of their lager, pints weren’t filled up to the top (not even the foam up to the top as I know a pint glass it often not filled), beer came in Peroni glasses which is confusing as they don’t serve peroni Now to the pizza, this was the let down, I believe Neapolitan pizza is not meant to be super crispy but this pizza had no crispness on the base at all, the crust was oddly empty, the tomato sauce was good, I got the Italian meat one (£15 for just this one topping) cost too much for what it was. Did seem like good quality but Bosco is 10* better value for money, their top pizzas with piles of toppings are £15 and the pizza is better hands down.

Amazing restaurant and food. Very typically Italian with great attentiveness from staff providing recommendations on food, great up selling skills! The restaurant was packed but they fitted us in. Only downside is difficulty in booking, they were not answering their phones all day or the previous day, no on line booking or email so only choice was to walk in.

Another terrific visit to this gem of a restaurant today. Fabulous food and immaculate service combine to make this always a place to remember and return to.

Amazing food. Authentically Italian! Super welcoming… highly recommend this place. Very charming indeed

A little bit of Italy in Bristol. Amazing pizzas with the best crusts! Cosy, relaxed atmosphere with a great Italian family feel to the place.

They were so accommodating here. We hadn’t booked but they made sure we had a table and were well looked after. The burrata is delicious and incredibly fresh. I had the cacio e pepe with added truffle and it was amazing. Can’t believe we haven’t tried here sooner.

Lunch with two friends. We had tagliatella with pesto and with beef ragu and a pizza with pancetta. The pasta was very al dente and had clearly been par-cooked and then reheated. Okay, it means it arrives quickly but there is a noticeable effect on the texture. The pizza base looked slightly soggy to me but my guest enjoyed it and it had a full leopard's quota of spots around the rim. The pesto was excellent and either freshly made or from a top-quality supplier. One of us had a cornetti alla ricotta to finish that seemed to hit the spot; the owner/manager also treated us to an entertaining lecture on the recipe and how the 'Americano' got its name. Hence 5 stars, but the food is really more 4 star.

We didn't have a table booked, but the manager was very accommodating and sorted a table for two immediately. The service and food was absolutely superb. If I'm ever in Bristol again, I'll be straight back for a visit.

I expected amazing pizza/pasta after reading so many good reviews…..but honestly…..the food was terrible…..really disappointed. Pizza was thick, undercooked, chewy and soggy in the middle. Really busy restaurant. Clearly successful. Maybe just not for me.

Absolutely delicious lunch at this authentic Italian restaurant. My Tagliatelle Caccio e Pepe was excellent, with proper home made pasta. I finished with a chocolate truffle ice cream, all washed down with a large glass of Frascati. It is a little more expensive than the...

Great food, best pizza ever. Small menu with limited choices but fresh pasta/pizza - great tasty food. Very busy so recommend booking. Exceptionally friendly staff and very quick service and nice atmosphere

Fabulous staff and service, all so friendly. Food was great, authentic and very reasonably priced. Atmosphere was very great and very cosy. Would highly recommend!

I came for my birthday (again) with friends and was seated upstairs. Love the atmosphere here, service was fast and the food was amazing. It has a whole vegan menu as well!

My grandad was given someone else's pizza and then they let him keep it. This meant he ate his meal way before we were given any of our mains. When the mains came out they were not hot, even when I sent mine back it...

The food was good and the service was great. Friendly staff, food arrived quickly. A nice atmosphere in a small Italian restaurant.

My absolute favourite Italian in Bristol. We stumbled in here one night and have been back 3 times. Food is amazing, staff are amazing and I cannot fault the experience we have had all three occasions we have visited. Taking Italy out-of Italy and bring...

The restaurant is popular but the food is average at best. Both pizzas came with outer crust undercooked with small portion toppings and the 2 sauces tasted bland for both the spaghetti dishes. When I was asked feedback I mentioned the food was average and...

This restaurant truly deserves its rave reviews! Fabulous food; ambience; and service. Highly recommended: Napoletana pizza, Flat focaccia, Tagliatelle, Salad, and Gelato. We're already looking forward to a return visit!!

We stopped by for lunch and had a delightful meal of two pizzas between us. The dough was heavenly and the service throughout was prompt. Great restaurant with a lovely authentic vibe. Would definitely recommend.

I've had better Italian food, but only in Italy and Sicily. The restaurant is run with great gusto and we were tucked in a corner which was cosy but warm. Upstairs might have been more comfortable. But the food was very good, essentially a choice...

Enjoyed a perfect lunch at Multobuono. Food was impeccable and the service was spot on, with friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommend!

This is an absolute gem. An authentic family run Italian restaurant with delicious food and a great atmosphere. I had the meat ragu which was out of this world and the kids pizzas were fresh and flavoursome. All the staff were attentive and friendly. We...

Best Italian I’ve ever eaten. So hard to decide what to have but tried a bit of everyone’s at the table and there were o wrong choices. If pushed, I’d say the pasta had a slight head above the pizza, but only if pushed as...

I've had several good dinners here and this time had a very good lunch with colleagues. The pizza was excellent as usual, and the staff fun and friendly. My only gripe was that it wasn't as quick as usual, probably because there were so many...

What a little gem of a restaurant. We walked past many other options as we’d read about how good this place is. We were (or are - writing this whilst still here!) very pleased with our choice. Very friendly welcome. Lovely choice of table -...

I’d just like to shout loudly and say thank you for an amazing vegan meal yesterday. It was my daughters’ last day in Bristol as she was moving home after Uni. We had the most wonderful experience and the staff were super friendly. She has...

Authentic food and charming staff made the experience amazing. Lucky to get in as we called on the night, but glad we did get in. Margarita and diavalo pizza were amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants an authentic experience

My partner and I went for an impromptu dinner at Moltobuono and could not have been happier with our overall experience. All of the staff were extremely friendly, enthusiastic and were more than happy to assist with our many questions about the menu. The food...

Fantastic experience! Delicious food, wonderful service from extremely friendly and welcoming staff. We would highly recommend a visit and will be back :)

A chance passing, when hungry so we called in and it was well worth it. Authentic Italian cuisine. Homemade fresh pasta, superb tiramisu….. would definitely recommend.

We ve been in Bristol for 3 weeks and 2,5 of them we are in Molto Bueno! Just couldn’t stop going there! Pasta is to die for!!! Great atmosphere! Pizzas are amazing too!!! Will definitely miss this place! Truly Italian!!!

Pizza done the best way possible. Staff were very friendly and food was delicious! Be sure to visit this authentic Italian restaurant.

My daughter who is vegan recommended this place knowing we love Italian food and we’re vegetarians. The vegan menu runs to two pages so we were spoilt for choice. It was heaving on a Bank Holiday but the owner said he liked my jacket and...

Best restaurant in Bristol, in my view. As much for the wonderful atmosphere of an authentic Italian family place as for the food - which is great for the price. If you want a gourmet meal, or somewhere to Instagram, look elsewhere. This is good...

Really wanted to love this place as many people recommended. Owners and service lovely but unfortunately the margarita pizza was terrible. Soggy and the base was so sad. Looked good coming but so wet. We were boggling our minds to know how it could be...

I stopped by here on a whim while looking for a place for a celebratory dinner and was elated they had a free outside table (don't forget to book!). The Tutto Bene made a great start to the meal with rich, savoury and well-textured meats...

Fantastic real Italian food, best in the south west area. Friendly, happy staff and great location Would strongly recommend it. Enjoy!

We'd wanted to eat here for a while as the restaurant seems very popular, but it can be tricky to get a booking. We had to take a time a bit later than we wanted and so had only an hour before we needed to...

The most unreal gluten free pizza I’ve ever eaten! A lovely family run restaurant. Fab service & fab food. Would recommend

Without doubt, continues to be the most authentic Italian restaurant outside of Italy. The charm and beautifully busy atmosphere could be bottled, the staff are incredibly friendly, and the Porcini Parmigiano - our comfort food of all time. This time, there was some Complexities with...

Great dining experience. Lovely staff and splendid ambience. We had the diavola pizza and the pasta caccio e pepe. Both dishes were 10/10 and tasted amazing. Highly recommend and will definitely come back!

The service was friendly upon arrival and we were seated very quickly. Despite it only being opening time (5:30), the restaurant was packed out immediately. The tables are very closely packed together and I personally felt uncomfortable with that. The house beer was lovely. However,...

Delicious pasta, bread and olives and an extensive vegan menu. The best food I've had in a long while, with excellent customer service to boot.

I had the vegetarian pizza with the gluten free base and it was amazing. It was the best gluten free pizza I've had. Delicious! Really recommend this to those who are avoiding gluten (not sure if it's suitable for those who are coeliac so I...

I wanted to go somewhere special for my birthday and after seeing all the glowing reviews for MOLTO BUONO I knew I had to go. I loved that they had such a great selection of vegan options, which it meant that there was something for...

Unsure why more recent reviews are poor, but molto buono offers a great selection of pizza made with very fresh ingredients. Upsettingly, the standard has dropped slightly, but I chalked it up to the dinner rush at the time. Staff are very lovely and generally,...

Super friendly service and delicious, authentic Italian food :) we tried the pasta and pizza and both were amazing! The tiramisu was great too!

Not impressed at all. Very expensive for Bristol, One kind of pasta only offered,pizza burned bottom and on top. What a waste of money.

Another supposedly "Italian" restaurant in Bristol doing its best to demolish the reputation my homeland rightly has for excellent food and service...... In one word, avoid!

Fantastic meal. Authentic Italian with pizzas to die for. Perfect meal from start to finish… We all opted for pizzas and they were fantastic. Of course we had to try the puds too and they didn’t disappoint. Great service with a lovely ambience. We will...

Frendly and helpfull staff and delcious food. We get the order very fast. I really recommend this place.

We booked well in advance based on the reviews. Ordered two pasta dishes and a pizza to share. The mushrooms in the pasta were soggy and both dishes tasted bland. No salt and pepper on the tables or offered. Even the pizza was tasteless. So...

Simone and his Family are passionate about food and customer service, they were entertaining and funny. Highly recommended but make sure to book a table because they are very popular. Hope to see you again soon.

I'm only trying to book a ta me, but it's been a week long of calling, without getting an answer, they can't be busy every hour of the day?

Me and my sister arrived without a booking and were immediately greeted with such a welcoming energy and sat very quickly on a busy night. We were served by a very friendly, attentive and charismatic waiter called mauricio, which in my opinion makes the whole...

è veramente molto buono!! As someone who has grown up visiting Italy every year with Italian family, I am a total food snob (comes with being Italian!)… especially with Italian food - it’s always better at home, but this evening I really fancied a pizza...

If you’re in Bristol and love Italian food you absolutely have to visit. A wonderfully authentic family run restaurant with the most delicious food. From amazing burrata to incredible home made pasta and super tasty pizzas…not forgetting the garlic focaccia which is to excellent too…...

We stopped by for an impromptu birthday lunch before dropping my 19 year old son at Uni for the first time. We came across the restaurant by chance but wow, how lucky we felt to have found such an absolu Totally authentic, oozing with charm,...

We booked a table for 4 people at 6.15, ahead of a show. Then I needed to add two more people and, with an hour's notice, the restaurant helped us rebook for 6 people at 6.30. Service is the right kind of speedy (not pressured)....

We had a beautiful meal here tonight - really lovely ambience, attentive staff and the best pizza ever. We will be back soon. :)

Amazing italian restaurant. Authentic and delicious food. Such good value too for a prime city centre location. Great veggie options.

Fantastic family run restaurant. Food was delicious and plentiful. Reminded us of our holidays in Tuscany and Umbria. Staff were friendly and good fun. Great all round service. Reasonably priced. Would highly recommend.

Enjoyed the fresh pasta dish but I felt this place is overpriced and overrated. I had a house draft beer which was good and refreshing but served in a plastic glass which was odd to me. My desert was terrible cannoli which was not freshly...

Looks like a real authentic Italian restaurant with Italian staff. The place is very lovely with the fairy lights. You can sit upstairs and outside as well. The food is omg. We had pizza, and it was so delicious and full of taste. This is...

Had a really cute date with my girlfriend and loved the italian vibe and music, the food was amazing and i will come back as soon as possible :)

We had an amazing time here! Thankyou to all the staff for such lovely food and service! Can’t wait to come again!

An excellent restaurant with a relaxed ambience. The pizzas and freshly made pasta is absolutely delicious. Cannot be recommended enough.

We went early on a Tuesday evening and it was already busy. Sat outside on the very steeply sloping Street. Service was great, I took our server's recommendation of red wine, which was delicious. The food of course was out of this world. If you've...

Having read the reviews we went last night it was so packed upstairs and unbearably hot. Food was poor for what it cost ! To then be overcharged by £10, we didn’t noticed this till we got home, won’t be returning !

Walking past and this place looked pretty cute from the outside and on entering and hearing the Italian accents and langue being spoken on the face of it, it seemed like it was going to shine. But it was just an example of how appearances...

Not sure how this restaurant has such good reviews. Went last night, absolutely packed, very very hot upstairs, uncomfortably so. Lots of tables very close together. Food was such a let down. I had creamy cheese pasta dish which I can only describe as stodgy....

Where do I start. Amazing authentic food and an impeccable service to go with it. Keep it up guys!!!
