Papa Ciccios in Sheffield

This place never dissapoint us. My best friend came from Greece and this was the only place she found the food delicious as in Greece.

lovely meal as always and great atmosphere

Delicious food, great service, highly recommended

Lovely little restaurant with great food and service.

Some of the best Italian food ever. I had the cannelloni and it was so tasty. Pleasant and friendly staff and service really good even though we were a large party. Reasonable prices too. Recommended.

Great food 100/100 was they best food i have had in a long time defo will came back

It’s not my first time and it is not gonna be the last time the food was very tasty

5 Stars from me. Food was superb, the Chilli Garlic Bread is fantastic. Definitely go back again

Absolutely love this place! I have been with my wife many times.. and still continue to do so.. lovely cozy restaurant.. polite staff and excellent food.

We all really enjoyed our visit to Papa Ciccios. We took my Mother-in-law for her 80th Birthday and she loved it. Good food, friendly staff and a nice warm atmosphere. We would recommend and return.

Amazing food and service, one of my favourites! Just extremely hot, especially when busy.

5 star service excellent food very happy will be back again.

Got a takeout of the food, came pretty much within 15 mins, which was probably why I'm so disappointed. Not sure maybe it's some random offshoots that come via ubereats but it was rough. Carbonara was just pure salty wetness - not sure where that egg really was. The spaghetti, even in name wasn't spaghetti, since it was more of a linguine, and heck the meat truly had a mysterious taste. The only reason this isn't a 1 star is due to the garlic mushrooms which were absolutely to die for, an easy 10/10 but I can't make it seem like the side dish saved the main meals. Hard pass for the pastas.

Honestly one of the best meals I've had along with the service and the two regular young women sat next to us.exceptional.wel be back and defo worth the hour drive

Been frequenting this place for 35 years now. And never found anywhere better.

We have been dining at the restaurant for a couple of years usually on special occasions. I booked for this evening for our wedding anniversary I did put this on the booking. Missed the warm welcome on arrival. We were shown to the table meals were ordered. Our company enjoyed the spare ribs, the mushroom soup was slightly salty for my palette. The mains arrived together but then left waiting 5 minutes for fries. We had to send one of the chicken dishes back as it was cold it was replaced very quickly and hot but by this time 3 of us were half way through our meals. When the bill came we weren't even offered a small liqueur on the house just told I'm bringing the bill as the table is booked at 6.45. We paid the bill but did say we haven't included a tip as we usually would have done as one of the main courses was cold. This caused a bit of a disagreement with the staff. We did finally receive 10% off the bill but this should have been done automatically or being offered a drink on the house as an apology. Having to complain rather spoiled the fact that it's our wedding anniversary.

We had a superb meal to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary ❤️. Our food was incredible! Thank you!

I have been a customer at Pappa Ciccio's for approx 35 years and I love it. We have been tonight and the steak is always good and for £24 for a fillet, I am okay with that price. However, as regular customers may know, you are offered fries, salad or veg with the steak. We both ordered steak and the veg portion was small...3 small potatoes, a tiny piece of broccoli and a tad of carrot. Surely, this should be addressed...vegetables are not expensive.

A family owned Italian restaurant and probably one of the best in Sheffield. Decorated beautifully, friendly service and well the food is absolutely amazing… I went for the chicken and fried zucchini which I would highly recommend! Their fried mozzarella is a highlight and on top of all this, it’s byob for just a £5 corkage charge! Mon- Thursday they do 20% off which is a great deal and for the quality of food, the prices are amazing ❤️ I will be returning

Delicious... great value for money....

Was my 60th birthday yesterday, there were 23 of us & despite it being very busy as it was Saturday night, the welcome, service & food were top notch. All during the planning of my birthday meal, the owner & staff have been amazing, so helpful & nothing was too much trouble. They accommodated all our wishes & we had a fabulous time. Love this restaurant, food & service are always excellent.

One of the best Italian cuisines in Sheffield. I have been a regular customer for years now and have never been disappointed. Thank you so much for the medium rare T-bone steak, Ebi. It was absolutely fantastic!

Very tasty and authentic Italian food! Just be aware they have sittings for 1hr30mins.

My friends and I visited a few months ago and had to wait nearly 2 hours for food as the waitress had been involved in a car accident . The staff were apologetic but no complimentary drink was offered .the food when it finally arrived was very nice. We decided to visit again . I was offered a slot of 6.30 or 7.30. I opted for 6.30 for 5 of us. This time we were served promptly but my lasagne was very liquidy with poor quality meat. We then had desserts which were very nice. We were just contemplating coffees when we were told we had 10 minutes to vacate the table . This meant we had an hour and a half for our meal and the time slot had never been mentioned as I would not have made the booking. I think this is totally unacceptable and my friends and I will not be visiting again. I would certainly expect at least a minimum 2 hour slot for an evening meal . Very unhappy customer

Where to start... The food arrived 2 hours late, the delivery driver was quite clearly drunk. Sluring his words, stumbling and didn't know which order was mine. He certainly, should have not been handling food. The food itself was soggy, cold and tasted horrible. After a few mouthfuls, it was all thrown away. We subsequently ordered from elsewhere.

A wonderful local restaurant. Throughly enjoyable.

As always, we love going to Papa's Ciccio's. The food obviously is the best. Plenty to choose from, exciting specials on the Special Board. Bring your own wine still happening. Soft drinks can be bought. The staff are always eager to please. We love it❤....love you guys. Thankyou

Ordered a takeaway, absolutely delicious and very reasonably priced

Family owned Italian restaurant, great atmosphere, good food.

Food is always brilliant. Lovely atmosphere and really nice staff.

Went here with my family and only had positive things to say about it. The staff is very friendly and the food was overall great taste wise and also for a good price. Will definitely be coming here again and would recommend more people to come here.

The food was great - cannot fault it. Good Italian cuisine. I’m giving a 1-star though because right at the end of the meal, the waitress told us that it’s “cash only”. This ruined the entire experience for me. I asked the waiter why they were “cash only” and he told me that the card machine was broken. After reading these reviews, that’s a lie as they have been cash only for years. It’s clear that they don’t care about the convenience of their customers. They just tell you to go outside and use the cash machine. It’s clear that the business more than likely not doing their books right because it’s cash only, and pay their team with cash. They don’t want to be paying payment processors the cut for convenience. They didn’t care about hygiene during COVID cus it’s cash only. The business is run like it’s in the 90’s. To the owner who I hope reads this - get a card machine, pay the fees that they charge, pay your staff via their bank accounts and make life more convenient for your customers.

A detail meal with good service and a complimentary liquor @

Food was amazing, lovely restaurant but not quite 5 stars purely because of the lack of interaction from staff, we never got asked how our food was etc, there was no conversation, just felt like we had food and drink brought to our table and that was it. This might be just down to experience! Other than that it was lovely 😍

Amazing food, amazing company and amazing staff!!!

My Lasagne came as a small portion in a giant pool of tomato soup. The fries had never seen a fryer. The food was worse than the choice of font on the signage, and that really is saying something.

On our door steps but first time last night. Amazing place friendly staff great with my little boy Great food Thanks again see you soon !!

Very good service and good food

Last minute booking - excellent meal

The food was rushed and tasteless

Been going for over 30 years and never had a bad meal. Enough said. You will.nkt be disappointed.

Come from Liverpool to visit friends and is always a must visit before we leave. Never disappointed.

First time order for delivery on Ubereats and the food was absolutely brilliant and great quality. Will be ordering again and visiting for the restaurant experience at first opportunity

Great atmosphere, everyone in my group enjoyed the food, & the staff were very friendly & helpful, I would definitely go back.

Papa's is the best , the staff are amazing and i have massive respect for the owner and chef his food is delicious and never disappoints , me my partner and her parents are regulars to dine here and always recommend it to our friends and family.

Everything tonight was perfect, as it always is. There were 5 of us out to celebrate our youngest daughter's birthday. All the food arrived promptly, nothing was too much trouble.I ordered off the Specials Board, the lobster ravioli to start, then the Swordfish with muscles, absolutely out of this world. My life feels complete. Thankyou to all of you.

Ordered on Uber Eats, ate the iron wire

Spur of the moment to dine in and was made really welcome. Great service with good friendly atmosphere. The food was delicious … we went for lobster ravioli and melon & Parma ham for starters and steak for the main, steak was cooked perfect. Generous servings too. We have been here a few times over the years and has always been top quality food and service.

Great authentic food and friendly efficient service every time we have been

Went with a group of friends. Food was amazing as always. Staff are lovely and service is excellent.😁

Very good experience with my family

A nice ambient restaurant. Only problem was they forgot our drinks but I would come back again as food was nice and tasty

Just love this place. From the great service, great food and wonderful atmosphere. A++

Sehr nette Bedienung, leckere Essen

Very good food I had the steak it was so delicious and staff are very nice

Been here quite a few times,the service is remarkably good,the food is first rate,the price very fair ,would say it's one the best Italian restaurants in Sheffield

After 16 of us crammed together and not enough plate space for everyone couldn’t believe it really prisoners get more space.. starters were fine..main course wasn’t brilliant think 5 of us had cannelloni never had before I left half mine chicken and mince meat more sauce than anything never again especially seen as all of us when we got home spent few hours in the toilet not good!! Very over priced aswell don’t risk it people😬🤢

Great early evening out, food excellent, service ok they had some staff not turn up due to an accident, atmosphere was good given it was early and not many people eating at this time. Look forward to going again.

Just had a swift supper for two. Top quality in all respects. As we are local its great not to have to drive far.

Shame only takes cash. No cards

Cosy local Italian serving all the classics in generous potions at affordable prices.

The best Italian food in Sheffield

First time there food was wonder ful certainly will go back.

Lovely as always. Friendly staff great food

Went here with a party of 5. Really nice, relaxing, authentic surroundings. The staff were excellent and food was amazing! Can’t believe I’ve never been before and will definitely return.

Food is absolutely delicious, I haven't had a lasagne that was that nice for a long long time. We had a takeaway delivered all the way to chesterfield and was the best decision ever. Really helpful staff and always smiling which is rare these days. Highly recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Outstanding authentic food, delivery quick food hot delivery driver polite and dressed immaculate, I've had hundreds of carbonara tagliatelle from all over and this food beat them all, I had fries and salad and they was very nice to, I have already recommended this restaurant to my friends and family as I don't want them to miss out, the reviews are very good and we are already planning visiting this restaurant already thankyou for your beautiful food

OK food. Tables very close to each other. Only take cash.

I put 1 star because I can't without! Orrible! 🤢 They have the sign as an Italian restaurant but they have nothing of Italian and I am Italian, so, I know my kitchen!! Never ever! Also this in my black list

Just to say as massive thank you to Ebbo and the whole team at Papa Ciccio's for our fabulous party on Saturday afternoon. The food, drinks and atmosphere were all amazing and we felt truly looked after and special. How ever they manage to produce food for over 20 people all at the same time is incredible. Thanks once again, we will defiantly be back. Best wishes Chris and Richard

We ordered two carbonara's and a garlic bread. The dish was swimming in grease, tasteless and full of fatty ham that was inedible. For the cost of the order (£32.00 for just 3 items) I was very disappointed.

Absolutely five star service Food very good Very friendly stuff definitely recommend it

Lovely food and very lovely staff. Would certainly recommend.

We booked this for a birthdays meal, never been here before.very good experience,the food was excellent. The staff very pleasant and helpful. Will definitely use this place again.

Papa Cs in an institution in Crosspool, we have been going there for over 30 years and it never disappoints, Ibo and his team always make you feel valued and the food is always excellent!

Fabulous food and great service, always a top evening out

Great food, Excellent Service & fabulous Atmosphere

The best restaurant I've ever been to. Fantastic food. Very friendly staff, and lovely manager. I would recommend them for quality and value for money 👌👌👌

Another great evening for our party of 6. Cannot speak highly enough of the staff, service, food and atmosphere. Most certainly we will continue our visits in the future !

What a gem, the food and staff are amazing! If you've not been before, you are missing out! Highly recommend.

Amazing food highly recommended

We recently had family visiting from Oman and Germany and they expressed a wish to visit Papa Ciccios The ambiance of the restaurant, the management,staff, and menu, food,are all first class. The staff could not be more accomodatinga thoroughly great experience was had by all our party including one of our German guests who was celebrating her birthday and was overwhelmed when her cake was brought in and the staff and other diners gave her a rousing chorus of Happy birthdayI can thoroughly recommend the restaurant to anyone

Gorgeous food and very attentive and friendly service. We visited for a birthday meal and had a fantastic time, all commenting afterwards on how tasty and authentic our meals were. I'd say this was one of the best Italian restaurants in Sheffield, we just wish it was our local as we'd be able to visit more often!

Lovely restaurant friendly staff lovely food 😋 dine here regularly

Great food, environment and beautiful waitress :)

Great cosy place, great staff and very tasty food. A must go place!!

Raw pizza, spare ribs drowned in horrible sauce, dark lighting tries to cover it up

Yesterday unfortunately we have been stood up from our table at Papa Ciccio’s. I haven’t even finished my main course as yet, whilst my loved ones who I’ve tried to treat to a nice evening just about cleared their plates. When I’ve booked the table I was told that we will have it at least till 8pm, but at 19:24 comes the waitress presenting me with our bill in a wooden box mid meal?!? Really?!? The waitress then confirmed that whilst pre-COVID they’ve done 2 sittings per night, now it’s 3 sittings between 6-12pmish. I am so sorry, but even with the 3 sittings stretching over the 6hrs or so mathematically isn’t it 2hrs one should have the table for? Or are you doing 1.5hrs, but then have an empty restaurant from 10:30pm onwards so you can tidy up till midnight? You service just simply isn’t quick enough to present the meals when you have a full house. (Indeed we were a few mins early, but that didn’t help us either.) You aren’t socially distancing the tables, nor trying to live up to any other COVID measures any longer (yes, you don’t have a legal obligation any more to e.g. wear masks, distance guests or e.g. enhance your cleaning between them), but so why are you cutting your guests short? Why the rush? You are unfortunately trying to generate extra revenue even vs your pre-pandemic occupancy / 2 sittings back then so we understand from your staff. Taking cash only then in 2022 also makes one wonder?! We are awarding 2 starts to you as our starters + mains were good - so a shout out to your chef, thank you!, but we won’t come here again unfortunately if we can’t finish 2 courses, never mind about us not even being presented your dessert menu! If we would have known that we are restricted to 2 courses, sorry, but then your guests may have the preference to skip the starters (well, I would have done and indeed I’ve asked for the dessert menu at the start, but your waitress told me it will be brought later…). We have of course paid in full, but having had to walk to a local cash machine whilst your next guests for our table already stood in the doorway felt more pressures / too overcrowded. We have expressed our dissatisfaction to your staff at the time - been offered liquor on the house to make up for the poor experience. I am sorry, but we aren’t drinkers, hence we politely declined this, rather hoped for 3 good courses of food on the night. A party of 10 people across us visibly arrived earlier & also been allowed to stay longer than ourselves. So if tables present more costumers than just the 3 of us, well, they may get better treatment at this restaurant. We hope you will revert to 2 sittings, better costumer service / more clear communication and start using card payments. Then perhaps we would look to return / give you guys another chance which you have asked for. I am ever so sorry for the “reality checking” review, especially as I am not a confrontational person & I really would have preferred to leave a 5 star rating. There are lots of fantastic restaurants in Sheffield which we regularly enjoy, but last night was sub standard.

Staff and food really nice, great atmosphere can not fault in any way, prices reasonable

Brilliant evening! Staff were great food even better

Went for a lovely dinner here with my mum. The staff are amazing and really friendly. I had a delicious goats cheese, sweet pepper and spinach pizza and my mum had a calzone. For dessert profiteroles and pancakes. All of the food was presented beautifully and was delicious. The meal with finished with complementary limoncello. Got slightly caught out as it's cash only, but there is a cash machine about 50m away.

Seriously, these guys AIN’T playing. Such diligent, professional service. Combining a beautiful setting with exquisite food , Papa Ciccio is a MUST visit. BYOB is a huge positive, too. Would I return again? Heck to the Ye!

Wow! What a find this was. If you closed your eyes and the people around you were speaking Italian you'd be forgiven for thinking you are in Italy. Very good ambience. They have a very good menu with enough variety to suit all tastes. You'd have to be very fussy if you couldn't find something you liked. The staff are always on hand without being over powering and the prices are very reasonable. This was our first visit but we'll definitely be dining there again. There are so many other menu items we want to try.

Fantastic night out here . Food very good and service top class highly recommended

Every thing was amazing. Top quality and a friendly service. Would highly recommend.

Had a great night with my wife. We shared starters and had we both had brill steak, which was very tender and tasty. It's byo drinks so we shared some fizz. Will definitely return in the future

Great atmosphere. Food bland disappointed.

Good, friendly Italian restaurant, relaxed atmosphere, BYO wine (£3.50 corkage charge) cash payment only

Went on Saturday night for a birthday meal, I have to say that it's probably the best italian I've ever been to.... I actively look for Italian restaurants when I'm working all over the UK and I have tried quite a few over the years, this was fantastic and very reasonable with the pricing.... We brought our own wine which is something I always enjoy doing... Will definitely be back when next in Sheffield.

Not loads of room if full but, amazing food and wonderful staff
