Incredibly welcoming. One of the kids twisted my arm into going for an Italian on night after school. I’d heard good things about Sambuca from my family and looked forward to the visit. The food was very nice, we both had a great time but the thing that made the whole experience worth the review was the wholesome and genuinely warm atmosphere. The dude running the restaurant was really friendly and welcoming. There were happy family scenes all across the place and it really felt like something from a movie.

Found ourselves in Shipley for the evening. Not local (we live 100+ miles away) - and once we'd been in we wish we were local! Amazing experience, best restaurant experience I've had for ages. Fantastic value. Great service. Great banter from the waiting staff too. No wonder it was packed. Hoping to find ourselves in Shipley again some time soon!!

Came Xmas day and didn’t rate it unfortunately. The food was very average (turkey dinner) full of rowdy drunk families swearing and the staff although I can’t blame them really didn’t want to be there. It cost us £180 in total for three people with two drinks each I definitely will never eat out Xmas day again, would expect 5* evethtrying for this price. Also another note you’re meant to get two hours we were rushed off after an hour and a half and our starters were on the table as soon as we walked in not an enjoyable experience

Elegí Sambuca para tener el ‘cumpleaños especial’ de mi esposa debido a disfrutar tanto de nuestras visitas anteriores y el restaurante no decepcionó. Todos comentaron mucho que disfrutaron de sus comidas y pensaron que era una relación calidad-precio fantástica. Todo el personal era paciente y servicial. Gracias una vez más por ayudar a hacer que las celebraciones de cumpleaños de mi esposa sean tan grandes.

Llamamos aquí temprano un miércoles por la noche y no podía creer lo ocupado que estaba, probablemente debido a la gran relación calidad-precio del menú del curso en £ 11. 95 por dos platos. No habíamos reservado, pero tenemos suerte de que nos aprieten, aunque solo teníamos la mesa durante una hora y quince minutos. Pedí que empezara la ensalada de queso de cabra, mi compañero el cóctel de gambas y su padre las setas de ajo. Todos los titulares fueron buenos. Como plato principal tenía el risotto de pollo, mi compañero una pizza picante y su papá la lingüina de pollo. El risotto estuvo muy bueno, no es frecuente que te den uno picante y puede ser bastante soso pero esto estuvo muy bien. La pizza de mis compañeros se veía un poco descuidada en el medio para mí, me gustan más delgadas y crujientes, pero a él le gustó. Las bebidas también son baratas. Alrededor de las £ 5. 50 marcos por una copa de vino. El servicio fue excelente. A poco más de £ 50 por una comida para 3 con bebidas no puede equivocarse.

The food was very nice and very reasonable prices. The service could have been a little better, the empty plates were left too long in between courses, and the waitress spilled the parmesan cheese on the table when adding it to my son's meal, and it was not cleaned off until after we left after dessert. We will go back though.

The food was OK until I received my tiramisu pudding. Besides supermarket tiramisu tasting better and this being mostly cream, a 2 inch piece of thin plastic was in the tiramosu. I told the waiter and he didn't even apologise. Said 'it's just cling film' and do I want another one. No thanks. Asked for a discount and it was my first time there but they said no.

My wife and I tried this place for the first time after recommendations. First impressions usually stick and so it was with the decoration. Scuffs on doors and unsightly skirting boards that need a lick of paint. I've been in cleaner cafes! If you're not fussed about what a customer sees then what is the state of the areas that aren't seen? However, although the quality of food was strictly average the service was attentive. Overall 3/5

This restaurant is always vibrant and full of people. One taste of the food and you'll understand why. The pizzas are wood oven fired and completely delicious. Pasta is all cooked to perfection. The tomato sauce you get with the meatball starter or with a calzone is drool inducing. It's so delicious you'll want to get your spoon and eat it. I know I do. The staff are very friendly and efficient as well.

Although this site stated the restaurant was closed from 3.00pm Saturday to 10.30am Tuesday I am pleased to say it was very much open last night (Saturday). It was for four of us our first visit but all was excellent . We particularly liked how the Chef and I presume owner came out to explain to all diners his dishes and what they consisted of. All staff were very friendly and efficient and the food first class . We will go again although with their restricted open times they are fully booked until August !

This little restaurant under Sunbridge Wells is a little gem of a pizzeria. Authentic, delicious. piping hot pizza, expertly prepared and cooked in a huge pizza oven from Italy. Everything about it is simple but perfect. Up there with the best pizza I ate in Italy last year. I love to support an independent place run by its owner, it makes it more special. Highly recommended.

We ordered 2 rib eye steaks, both of which were fatty and gristly. We mentioned this to the waiter who spoke to the chef and explained that unfortunately this is how they are. I’ve never had fatty rib eye before so can only think these were poor quality. The rest of the food was lovely and the service was great but as this is the second time I’ve been left disappointed with my main meal (last year I returned my lasagne as it was terrible) so we probably won’t be returning here.
