We planned to go out for a celebration dinner and Mrs Cunningham chose Nicolino's. The staff gave us a warm welcome when we arrived and were shown to our table. The service we received was attentive without being obtrusive. The food was, as always, freshly cooked, flavoursome, well presented and a good portion size. Despite it being early on a Thursday evening it was no surprise that the restaurant was busy, as it always has been when we've been lucky enough to be in the Emsworth area and dined at Nicolino's.

Met with friends for a pre booked table on a busy Friday evening, this place is clearly popular and others advised pre arrival you will not be disappointed. Plenty of choice for traditional Italian food. Portions on the large size, starters bruschetta was excellent and enough to share. Mains again large and exceptionally tasty. So as not to waste the great food we asked for a take out box which was provided. A great find and a venue to revisit - atmosphere also lively and waiters entertaining those on celebration night outs with Italian singing. All in all a great experience.

Friendly service and authentic Italian food. We've been here several times now and it is consistently good. I had the Rotolo - ricotta, spinach, butternut and variety of mushrooms with sage - very tasty. Tiramsui to follow best I have had. My husband had Carbonara and Panna Cotta again very good. We have been here with friends too Aswell as just us.

Wonderful evening with 20 friends and family celebrating a 60th birthday. Granted a little planning was needed regarding pre ordering but this understandable with such a large number of guests. Service was prompt and food served timely and most importantly delicious. We were located upstairs which allowed us to have the room all to ourselves. We prepared guests on the billing arrangements, so no issues at the end of the evening, as this can often be an awkward moment. Overall a lovely relaxing evening with great food and the bonus of that quirky Italian charm.

All of the staff were polite and friendly and the service was really good, even for a busy nice I didn’t wait long to get served even when it was full of Xmas parties. My food was with me in a matter of minutes so I’m hoping that’s only because the parties pre ordered and they had made excess portions. The food was really nice, so will be visiting again, hopefully not alone next time.

We were warned in advance that as a group of c 25 people we would have to accept one bill for all the food and drink which we would then have to divide out amongst our members with each person then paying individually by credit card. I therefore decided I would have to take my laptop in order to calculate what each person owed. Having done this, not surprisingly, I had a difference of c £ 15 which on a bill of c £ 500+ I thought it would be easier to just pay. However after everybody had paid I was told there was c £ 80 outstanding, not just £15. The restaurant management were insistent on demanding another £ 80 until after about 15 minutes arguing they accepted that they had omitted to take into account the first person to have paid. A most unpleasant experience.

Good atmosphere, friendly staff. Great food, large portions. 4x starters, 4 mains, 1 x dessert, 1 x bottle wine, 2 beers, 4 limoncello, 1 x espresso, 2x cocktails = £230. Bargain. Only criticism lots of little bits of shell in mussels in white wine and In seafood risotto, which spoilt the enjoyment. But otherwise, great 👍

Durante su estancia en la isla, comimos allí dos veces ya que la comida era adorable en la primera visita. Esto nos ha impulsado a volver con el resto de nuestro grupo. En la segunda visita nos quedamos muy decepcionados por el servicio. Pedimos dos botellas de vino, que fueron compradas a la mesa, pero la izquierda descorchado. Tuvimos que pedíamos se abrieron y más vasos. Tres de nosotros tiene filetes y tuvimos que pedir cuchillos para la carne. Tuvimos que pedir otra cuchara de sopa. Estas son cosas sencillas, pero no deberían necesitar tener que pedirla! Jarras de agua permaneció vacía durante largos períodos. La comida era estupenda, pero el servicio toda la experiencia. Aprecio que había una mesa grande, pero no toda la comida salió al mismo tiempo que era incómodo para aquellos que buscan en sus cenas calientes para conseguir frío. La factura era incorrecta y nos cobraron de más. Si quieres mando los precios anunciados por la comida, el servicio debe cumplir con las normas.

We visit this restaurant regularly as it holds a special place in our hearts having held our wedding reception here 4 years ago. We came for our anniversary and wasn't disappointed. Mario is always so welcoming and the food delicious. They were short staffed this particular night but the service was still great, Roxy was lovely and was able to chat with us while making sure the rest of the guests were served with a smile. Would highly recommend.
