In the centre of the City of Wells, our room was lovely as was the excellent meal in the restaurant. Staff were unfailingly polite, helpful and friendly. We would gladly stay here again.

Forget all the other reviews. This is the best dining experience in Wells. Great food, great service and a great atmosphere in the restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Had the bonus of a window seat without even asking for it.

Going to a concert in the Cathedral, Rugantino was close by and recommended by the receptionist at our hotel. And what a good recommendation it was. We pushed the boat out somewhat as it was my birthday w/e and the meal came in at nearly £60 a head but the foot, drinks and the staff service were great. We enjoyed it so much we went back the next weekend (another concert in the Cathedral!) and had an equally enjoyable, though less lavish, meal. We ate from the specials menu the first time and their normal menu the second visit - all excellent but I have to give a special mention to the PENNE NORCINA TARTUFATO. A spicy Italian sausage, truffle cream, pecorino cheese on Penne pasta. Absolutely gorgeous.

Went here for dinner - best decision! The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming and really nice interior. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming and couldn’t have done more for us! The food was absolutely delicious - I had one of the specials which I thoroughly recommend (porcini tagliatelle) and the variety of food and drink was also great! This is a must!

Jo was so welcoming and kind especially when I messed up my booking she was quick to sort it without any issue. The staff are so kind and despite it being busy I did not feel rushed at all. The cocktails and wine were great and the menu extensive. I went for the carbonara and rocket salad and the home made chilli oil was out of this world. Cannot wait to return on my next visit to Wells ❤️

Special shout-out to Lucille Joanna and Mirko for demonstrating flawless and impeccable decorum throughout the endeavour.

We have just had the most amazing short break staying at this gorgeous hotel. Our room was excellent with a separate bathroom which has a fantastic bath tub! The dinner we enjoyed in the restaurant was cooked and presented to a really high standard and the breakfast the following morning was just WOW…. Freshly cooked, served on warm plates and the toast was hot…. I don’t know how many times when we have stayed away that we have sent the cold toast back, but not here and nothing was too much trouble. Excellent customer service and all this made our very much needed break away truly memorable. Also just need to add the view of Wells Cathedral from the hotel and bedroom was an added gem 👌😊

An early evening meal on a short break in the city. The restaurant was quiet and the atmosphere and setting certainly pleasant, but didn't feel that the 'fine dining' label was really justified. The question, 'everything all right with your meal?' can be irritating ,but would have been welcome in this case. My son found his truffle-infused pasta dish 'nice enough' and the house wine was good, but my main dish was seriously over-priced (£21). A risotto with Cornish crab and lobster - but served in far too small a portion to detect either ingredient. Wouldn't recommend.

Worst experience ever. The manager, Nick if I remember correctly, was the rudest person I've ever seen. He was bullying the staff all the time, making them feeling uneasy and looking at the client's tables like a mafia guy, walking furiously through the dining. Food was terrible, cheap quality, funny flavor and extremely overpriced (458£ for 3 people, 1 bottle of VERY low quality wine, really??), just a tourist trap. Toilets were a joke, tiny space and full of dirt. Wells deserve better places, this one is embarrassing. Ignominious to say the least.

My husband and I are reasonably local, and as I had an appointment at the dentist we thought we’d have lunch first. Never been to Rugantino and it was a beautiful day so we requested an outside table. We were welcomed and shown outside, given a menu, and someone came to take the order very quickly. Stunning view to the Cathedral. To us that’s where it ended. Our starter, a tiny peace of bruchetta, was served 10 minutes before the drinks, and thou I politely asked for the drinks, I was told they would be with us in a minute, it was not. When it arrived, with an apology for the late service, my white wine was tepid. For the main meal I had the crab and lobster risotto, my husband the chicken penne, At a cost of £19 and being told it was a special dish, I can’t use another word to describe it then to say it was an unappealing beige porridge. It was over cooked, grainy and watery, nor was it hot. My husbands penne was also served very wet, so wet he had to ask for a spoon to eat with, it was ok, but nothing more. We both left half our lunch. We complained to the manager, and to be fair he apologised and gave us some refund for our meal, with a request of not leaving a bad review. I hope this is not a bad review but a truthful one of a disappointing visit. Will we go again, don’t think so.

Despite there being 5 staff standing in the reception area we were not greeted by any of them. When we said we had a reservation they just looked at a screen, one person shouted out a table number and we were begrudgingly shown our table. The menu is limited, no fish or meat courses. There was antipasti, primi, but no secondi. The tricolor starter had no avocado, the green element being made up of basil leaves, the mozzarella was the right temperature but the tomatoes too cold, like they had just come out of the fridge. The spicy sausage penne and cream pasta tasted nice but there was too much sauce. The chilli linguine with added king prawns was good but the linguine was slightly over cooked. The service wasn't attentive and there were no pleasantries or engagement between staff and diner. The wine was ok. The toilets, male and female are very, very small, almost cupboard like.

Great table with a view of the cathedral. Sadly, a raucous hen party ruined the atmosphere for the other couples & us sitting close by. Having eaten our main which was really nice, it was obvious the staff had simply forgotten to offer us desserts or coffee. After 40 mins we decided to settle up & declined to pay the 10% service charge! When customers tell you why they are unhappy, it would be decent of the management to acknowledge their mistake instead of a pitiful ‘sorry’ - how about £10 refund as a goodwill gesture?! I guess us spending £75 as a couple didn’t compete with the larger table who DID get their full meal!

We were so disappointed with our visit, especially as we had seen the good reviews it had. However, the food was average at best, and the staff not very welcoming. One of our party has hearing difficulties, and because of a party of young loud diners adjacent to us, it was impossible to hold a conversation. Seeing there were empty tables in an adjoining room we asked to be moved. This was refused, although all the time we were there the tables were not used. Also the little touches such as no slice of lime and ice in one drink, and an elderflower presse came in its bottle, which we struggled to open. We certainly would not visit or recommend Rugantino.

We had previously had a good meal here so returned. Sadly this time the two waitresses present were very surly. Our meals and drinks were slammed on the table, and they appeared to not want to be there. We had to ask for water twice and they virtually ignored us. The meals were mediocre and we only paid a service charge because it was already added onto the bill. Disappointing as it was a birthday treat.

Having had several good meals here, we found the post renovation visit rather awful. The starter, olives and bread, arrived after 30 long minutes. Our pasta arrived a further 30 minutes later. My penne was virtually uncooked and my companions only fractionally more edible. We spoke to the member of staff who assured us it was cooked properly. We had had the same meal here before and the difference was very noticeable. The food was taken away with assurance that it would be cooked again. I was offered and accepted a different type of pasta but my original meal returned after 15 minutes. Chewy was the only word I could find to describe it. We spoke to the staff again- the waiter remarked that my friend wanted her pasta overcooked- realised he had been rude and tried to cover his words- he said that all pasta was made freshly but then said that the packet told them to cook for 5 minutes and that they had boiled it for 10! Still uncooked and by this time, cold. A very memorable experience but for all the wrong reasons. No apologies for anything along the way and certainly no return visit from us. Did the renovations cost so much they needed to buy supermarket packet pasta??

Inattentive staff- so missed much of socialising trying to attract attention for drinks etc, whilst other tables seemed to be "favourites " with lots of TLC. No-one came to check food was ok, and paying the £300 bill was done whilst the guy chatted to his friends at the bar. Toilets are pathetic. One toilet wih a badly fitting door at top of uncarpeted stairs may look "authentic" but if the place was for sale you'd discount the price to pay for an upgrade/refurb. Food mediocre; next time...SOMEWHERE ELSE!

As a local, stopped off here for a sneaky wine. Greeted by grumpy young staff who said we could have a drink but we would have to sit at the side as they were setting up for the evening, fair enough. It was our table that was booked for the evening bringing friends from out of town. When we returned later the tables were set up with other tables folded up all around, it was like sitting in a gym hall between classes! No attempt had been made to make the place look presentable, it was very scruffy, no cleaning of the floor between sittings, despite the stunning view and location. Food was truly mediocre, young staff untrained and ignorant of the food/takeaway menu. Manger was very rude to his own staff in front of us and then we were grumpily asked to leave the table at 7.15 despite booking and being told that we could have the table until 7.30! It was very embarrassing and not cheap! What a great shame. I am afraid that Wells in general is a lovely place to visit, but is scruffy and lacks a decent place to eat! Note to self ... I would recommend for drink only ....

Excellent meal had by our family of 8 to celebrate a 70th Birthday. Food , service and ambience was first rate. Restaurant was full, so hats off to them for providing such an amazing dining experience
