Torna a Surriento in Gwynedd

came here this evening for our wedding anniversary dinner. we were seated promptly and the staff were very attentive. place was clean and tidy. the food arrived quickly, but there was no skimping on quality. the risotto pollo was to die for, good portion size. we spent £48 altogether which was very reasonable for 3 courses. my only complaint would be maybe some chill classical music in the background and some more comfortable chairs, but I'm not gonna knock a star off for that. altogether a really lovely dinner, thank you to the staff for making our anniversary celebrations very relaxed and pleasant!

I’m sure it would be lovely, smelt, great very busy, but with at least 20 seats free as a single, looking at a long table with one person and a couple on it, I was told it was fully booked. Disappointing. Fair play to me didn’t give it a one.

Had a lovely meal but felt the service let down the overall enjoyment of the evening. Would have otherwise left a tip but the frustration of waiting multiple times left us feeling we weren't being looked after.

6 of the family visited on a Wednesday. Very busy place, just shows how good it is. All 6 where happy with our food and will definitely be returning

"I ordered two pizzas and a chicken pasta along with some drinks. First, they forgot to bring one of the drinks to the table. The pasta was way too salty and had maybe three small slices of chicken! The pizza was okay, but when I asked for a box to take it home, they crammed everything into a small one, looks like they were trying to save money on proper pizza boxes. Overall, really disappointed with the experience."

The best Italian restaurant in Bangor. Everything taste good

Food was amazing 💙 not to expensive either ...staff were very friendly 👍

Fab portions, quick and friendly service, a solid place to keep returning to :-)

Food was nice, fairly empty so were seated straight away. Marked 3 for service as the waitress could be more diligent and attentive. A simple glance over in our direction to see if we needed anything perhaps instead of repeatedly trying to get her attention by waving. Low score on atmosphere as the place was near empty so can't comment on that.

Good Italian! Reservations were necessary, we could still go at 5 p.m., the rest of the evening was full (August). Great meal. Located near the pier, but not many places with a view of the pier.

Delicious! We didn't book a table, but we managed to do it 😍 the waitress said we had an hour and asked if we would be able to eat 🙃 we were on the road, so definitely! The food was served quite quickly. I recommend it if you love Italian cuisine 🤤 we will definitely come back! 🤌🏼

Absolutely fantastic food, good location - very easy to find, plenty of parking, friendly staff. The best garlic bread I've ever had-my partner and I would definitely be regulars if we'd live closer!!

Really lovely time here with family, very accommodating for young children. lovely food and great service!

Being local I've eaten here on a few occasions now and feel my average score is a fair one. The food isn't bad it's ok and cooked to a decent level, but it's certainly not anywhere near the best Italian food I've eaten. The pizza is fine , the lasagne had far too much cheese on it for my liking. The pasta used isn't fresh except the gnocchi and ravioli. What let's this place down the most is the inattentive service. Far too long to take a drinks order (and this was apparent for other tables too) Only asked if the food was ok after we had finished. We were rushed off the table as they had another customer waiting, but the reason we over ran our 2 hour stay was because of the slow service! It's always busy here and popular with families so I'd advise to book. If you understand authentic Italian food you maybe disappointed, if not you may love it. The staff are not organised at all and very inexperienced and young, Which seems a common theme for a lot of hospitality establishments nowadays! Unfortunately Bangor's decline since COVID has meant a lack of good restaurants in the area. This is an ok Italian just don't expect great service or top notch food. Would I return? Yes but I know what to expect

Locale molto sfizioso a pochi passi dal centro di Sorrento, i prezzi sono molto competitivo vista la zona, e le portate sono ottime, oggi sono arrivato alle 14.40 non sapevo che la cucina chiudesse alle 15.00, mi hanno accolto come un amico che non vedevano da tempo hanno fatto sentire me mia moglie ed i miei figli come a casa, morale della favola la cucina x colpa mia ha chiuso alle 16.00 (da considerare che io avevo preso prenotazione alle 14 poi causa traffico sono arrivato 49 minuti dopo). Cmq per non portarla x la lunga 5 stelle al cibo allo staff e a tutto il comprensorio. Brava Bravi Bravi speriamo di tornare presto {mo sai che cos'è il Pomerania 😂😂}

Pleasantly busy, delicious food and wonderfully friendly service.

Attended this evening for my 57th birthday .. the staff were wonderful the food amazing and so tasty and although busy the service was spot on ! Shame we were on holiday or we would be regulars ! Very much reccomend!

What a local Gem! We were literally staying a few hundred yards away & only wish we had found it sooner ! Lovely family run Italian, food, drink & sevice was brilliant....a real must. Thank you.

This is my second time to the restaurant, and again it's amazing. Everyone has to go to this restaurant. The food, quality, service, staff, taste of the food, the price and cost is all brilliant...one of the best finds ever...

We were lucky to get a table as we hadn’t booked and by 6pm the restaurant was full. The menu extensive, food was delicious, freshly cooked and generous portions at reasonable prices. The staff were super friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant, it may not look that special from outside but once you’re inside you are in for a treat.

The reviews are true amazing authentic Italian cuisine. We had delicious garlic bread which was crunchy garlicy and spongy. I added extra salt to my taste. The Perroni on draft was fresh cold and thirst quenching. We both had risotto’s me Marinara and John chicken and mushroom. Both were delicious and tasty. Puddings we’re the perfect end to an outstanding meal. The service was quick attentive and very friendly. Thanks to every member of staff from the young women who took my booking to the friendly waitress and chef who came to check everything was ok. Highly recommended would definitely eat here again.

Extensive menu with choices for everyone. Absolutely delicious food.

I have never really loved an Italian till now

Pizza was very nice with a thin crust as was the spaghetti carbonara.

Friendly, unpretentious and very good food.

fantastic food, fast service and well priced! lasagna was delicious!

Really good food, nice staff and the portion sizes were so big! It was well priced too for the quality of food.

Fine setting. Authentic Itallian & local ingredients. Cooked beautifully. Well presented. Timely. Lovely tasting. & I''m not easily pleased.

I cannot praise the restaurant enough! First and foremost, the food is excellent and we have always had a wonderful meal here. The service is always top notch and there's always a great, authentic atmosphere. For the quality of the food and the portions you get, the prices are very reasonable. Make sure you visit here when you want a great meal in Bangor! Grazie!

The building this restaurant is in is pretty unremarkable but the food was utterly incredible - best Italian meal I have had in years. My daughters raved about their meals and the service was friendly, prompt and welcoming. An absolute gem and I'm only disappointed I can't give more than 5 stars for the food!

Good food at reasonable prices and a nice place to eat if you're near Bangor in North Wales. Recommended. We'll go again.

Food was lovely, No music or ambience. No sign to find the place or parking. Staff a little slow on service. Table was super cluttered and it wasn't too busy. Felt they were chatting a lot in the bar area.

Desserts served with SQUIRTY CREAM!!! Abomination. Mains were amazing so they ruined the experience with this horrendous plastic cream. May not go again.

Brilliant food and great service- thank you

Can't think of a better place to have a meal on your anniversary.

Visited with family for my other halves birthday and so glad we chose here! Took an early sitting at 1700 hrs as we had the 6yr old with us, my son & daughter & OH made a party of 5. Lovely relaxed atmosphere in the restaurant, service was quick & efficient. When ordering (our picky family of vegetarians, pescatarians & 1 meat eater) has so much choice. I know this is relatively easy with Italian cuisine, with a mixture of proteins, sauces and pasta etc. but the menu was beautifully put together with some interesting combinations. As always, I was torn between 2 starters & 2 main courses, the waitress gave excellent recommendations and was more than happy to advise. I really like that! The food was AMAZING! So fresh, beautifully presented and totally delicious. To start we had the mushrooms with spinach & blue cheese (me), king prawns in white wine & garlic, Tris Bruschetta, a cheesy garlic pizza and Capesante Chorizo (scallops in white wine sauce). For main we had the mushroom risotto (I love to try this in any restaurant as I consider my self the 'queen' of mushroom risotto , brag I know!), Farfelle alla Norma (minus the aubergine, not an issue), Tagliatelle Alfredo (was my other choice but went for the risotto so OH had this & I'm having that next time!) and the Cotaletta alla Milanese. Little one shared a bit of each of ours. My risotto was the best I've ever had, as good if not better than mine (brag again!!). Way too full for dessert & we're not really dessert people any way. Overall, one of the most pleasant meals out we've had in ages, everyone more than happy with their food, no complaints, no whinges and everyone full & very satisfied! The restaurant was filling up quickly as the night wore on so a booking, I would say, is essential. 5 x starters, 4 x mains, 2 bottles of wine (we brought one of them home as we were full!), 2 x diet cokes, 3 x non alcohol beer & 3 x fruit shoots - £163 & some pence. A special mention to our lovely waitress who was attentive as needs to be, very professional yet friendly & did an excellent job. We will certainly be back, I think this may be my new favourite place!

Lovely Italian by Bangor pier, friendly staff and lovey food.

Another wonderful meal at the best restaurant in Bangor.I haven't been here for a few months owing to illness but it was great to get back here.I have been to many Italian restaurants around the world and can honestly say this place is up there with the best.Lovely service,excellent food expertly cooked,just a wondeful evening.If you've ever wondered about going don't wait just book and sample something from the extensive menu.I'll be back there again every month again now.

Amazing from start to finish! Thank you for finding us a table at short notice. Staff were lovely and friendly and food was excellent. Huge menu to choose from to, the best authentic italian desert menu ive ever seen!! If we lived closer we would be there every week! Highly recommend

Service was bad. Orders were getting mixed up atmosphere or table was good but you could see it. Customers complaining about their orders being mixed up we prebooked but when we got there they did not have a record of our booking. Small things had to ask for parmesan and pepper just bad service

Lovely little restaurant. Food & Drink fresh tasty. Lovely view of rhe Pier...

Lovely meal, late afternoon after a visit to cinema at Pontio....Ciao !! ...hopefully see you soon 🙂🙂

Surprisingly busy for a Tuesday evening. First visit and was pleased. Happy with the cleanliness - the waitress was keen to wipe the table and placemats before seating us. It was a little cold in there unfortunately despite being offered a table next to the radiator, which turned out not to be on. We had three courses. The food was all very delicious. I chose a pasta dish that didn't specify garlic but still found it too garlicky unfortunately. Otherwise all the food was lovely. We just had to have a dessert due to the extensive menu with some very different choices. We'll definitely be returning.

My husband and I enjoyed an authentic italian meal last night, we both had starters and mains and shared a fabulous italian desert. Well worth a visit, we’ll be back, thank you.

Lively bustling little restaurant. Delicious food

Great selection of dishes on the menu. Hesitantly decided on a pizza, as it was an Italian restaurant, and it did not disappoint. Love a good pizza and equally resen a bad one. This one was up there withe the better ones.

Delicious authentic Italian food. Fantastic menu also with lots of choices. Highly recommend.

Great Italian restaurant. We popped in on the off chance and they fitted us - very grateful as little else open in both Caernarfon and Bangor! Food was delicious 😋

Very nice food and excelent service atmosphere was lovely and location is beautiful

Absolutely delicious! And tons of vegan opinions too!

Lovely food nice atmosphere but the service was a bit slow they got the orders mixed up

Excellent food, good service. Highly recommended.

Loved it! Excellent food, service and company!

WOW WOW WOW. The food is absolutely incredible, the staff are just lovely and can’t do enough for you and the prices are so reasonable for the portions and quality you get! I can’t wait to go back already.

Beautiful food beautiful atmosphere, definitely recommend. servers were lovely

My family and I came here to celebrate my father-in-laws birthday and am so glad we did. The people who worked there were so nice and helpful,andmade us feel so at home as well. The service was excellent and the food was out of this world. My eldest son who is normally a very fussy eater said the Pizza he'd had was the best he'd ever tasted, and my youngest son said the same about his Beef Lasagne. Thank you so much for making us feel so welcome, and we can't wait to come back the next time 😊

Really good food with lovely staff at a reasonable price. What more could you want?

Absolutely amazing food and in a lovely spot! I have given it 4/5 as we did stand waiting to be greeted for almost ten minutes (not during a rushed evening) and 15 minutes for our drinks to arrive. Other than that which could of just been a bad day, absolutely lovely restaurant, and by far the best Italian food you will find in Bangor 🍕

Very helpful staff on a very busy Saturday. Lovely food and superb pizza. The service was good. Pinot grigio delicious. A real find when in Bangor for university open day. Thank you. Highly recommended.

Went here as part of a large group. Many weren't satisfied with their meals, staff seemed to take offence. Only thing I can say is that it is authentic Italian as all the staff seem to be Welsh/Italian. Good selection on the menu.

Just a disappointing experience

Hidden gem of a place excellent really excellent.

Great meal drinks and fantastic staff

Chose this restaurant to celebrate our walk up Snowden, arrived early but table sickly cleaned and available. Right next to Bangor pier. Shared the whitebait starter then had the Tono pizza and penne with goats cheese asparagus and sun dried tomatoes which we also shared, washed down with a couple if pints if Peroni and 2 large glasses of Pinot Grigio. Finished with espresso and Limoncello Food was excellent and staff very friendly and courteous and waitress apologized as they were shirt staffed but the service was excellent and we never even noticed.

Wow wow wow this place is so good Excellent food ,service The place was really busy but the staff just coped and gave the best service Pasta dishes were ace

Amazing food. Very good staff (a little short staffed, but always smiling and helpful)

I had the lasagne and it was really lovely. And their best is dessert loved it. Will go more for sure. Best Italian in town

Reasonably priced, meal was lacking sauce and garlic bread was rock hard and unedible.

Oh wow, my first experience at an Italian restaurant but certainly will not be my last. The food, service and atmosphere was second to none. My partner and I both opted for the lasagne., and we ordered a cheesy garlic bread , a side salad and chips to share . Everything was cooked to perfection and the flavours were divine. The service was excellent, attentive without being obtrusive. A wonderfull experience, we certainly will return. Thank you to all concerned.

Let’s start by the fact that we booked in advance, we showed up on time, stand by the entrance and me and my gf were just ignored by all the waiters, and waited for about 10 minutes until someone approached, she was nice, but not even a slight apology or a single word, gave us the most uncomfortable table for two, in one corner (even though I specifically told them when making the reservation that we had our anniversary date), menu were basically thrown at the table just in the middle and before we were sat, my gf ordered a glass of wine and I jumped to order a bottle, I thought it’ll be better so we can have a chat an a few drinks, we had not a single word from the waitress, not a recommendation and the wine (white wine) came it was not even chilled and didn’t came in a cooler, it was just the bottle, we ordered food and it took almost 30 minutes for our starters and about 45 for the mains, which to be honest was way too much, the place was busy, but not as much as to leave that gap on the service, I requested a glass of water that never appeared and the food, wow, as a chef, I know the struggle in the kitchen sometimes but serve a “carbonara” been so brave of calling a carbonara a bunch of spaghetti with cream and ham, and then call your restaurant Italian is just disrespectful, the soup was clearly heated and tasted like it wasn’t from the day, the calamari was rubbery and just covered with the same soup I was served before, and a side salad that would be served in a pub with more grace even having the bravery of send salad cream sachets that tasted disgusting, chewy bread not even toasted, no olive oil at least, just and incredible deception, even my girlfriend is asking me to stop apologising about the dreadful night o offered on our anniversary. I was really expecting the bear minimum, and didn’t even received that.

Book in advance because this restaurant is popular and with good reason! The staff were welcoming, polite and took our orders quickly, with our delicious calamari and whitebait starters, main of king prawn linguine and gnocchi exceeded all expectations. Dessert amazing again, tiramisu and profiteroles, were plentiful after 2 courses and we finished off with limoncello shots. We cannot wait to come again! Lovely decor, beautiful location, and we commend the skilful chefs and servers for the unbeatable experience. Thank you

Arrived without a reservation. Waitstaff was incredibly rude when we arrived and didn't even consider having us wait, yell us how to organize a reservation, or how long a wait would be. I'm not bothered whatsoever I couldn't get my wife and I a table, but the poor customer service was remarkable. Food looked like it would have been good, but poor service and customer interaction leaves us in the dark... guess we'll never know... don't recommend you do either.

It’s nothing special, tbh. Adequate, filling risotto followed by a very cold and quite tasteless tiramisu. Weak and overpriced coffee, and average wine. Very surprised to see the high ratings on here. The staff seemed dour and uninterested.

Came in for some food but the waiter looked at me at walked away a few times before I managed to say I was looking at the table. Then he spoke to his manager and then point at me to explain the situation. I just walked because I was standing around like a mug with the other patrons looking at me. Disappointing as I was looking to have a large dinner before a journey home.

What can I say but absolutely amazing . If you ever need to celebrate a special party , this is the place to go. They were so helpful and polite . Nothing was too much trouble . We were a group of 23 , celebrating a 40th Birthday . They changed the layout of the restaurant to accommodate our party. All the decorations we provided ,which was a lot was no trouble at all. The food was amazing , we didn't have to wait long . Service was exceptional. If you ever want a fantastic meal with great service this is the place to go. Parking outside was great and we couldn't fault anything . Thank you for creating this amazing experience for our family and Friends

Lovely authentic Italian food. I had gnocchi with sausage, it was amazing and perfectly cooked. The pizzas are also lovely, quite reasonably priced. I can imagine the views being lovely (pitch black at night!) Car park directly outside Staff were friendly, not the most attentive but it was busy. Would recommend, had a large selection in the menu!

Visited for my husband’s birthday. The food was excellent. Everything was freshly cooked and hot. Even though it was busy (it was a Wednesday) we didn’t have to wait too long to be served or wait for our food. Staff were very friendly. Definitely recommend. Made my husband’s birthday.

I can’t give this enough stars! Me And my partner came here on Friday evening for his birthday! We both had starters, mains and shared a dessert and everything we had was 10/10! Compliments to the chef! Stunning presentation to the food! Plenty to chose from! Wines were fantastic also! The waiting staff were lovely and remembered my drinks order every-time I needed a drink without prompt! We will definitely be returning!

Another superb meal last night. A last minute decision and thankfully they were able to fit us in. Could not believe that a table of eight who had booked did not turn up and didn't phone to apologise. They had apparently turned down bookings. Very sad that people behave like that these days especially with a small family business. Anyhow we had a delicious meal. We started with the garlic bread with cheese pizza - just what we needed as we hadn't eaten much yesterday. I then had the pasta with chicken and mushrooms. As always it was totally yummy. Big portion but managed to finish it all with a delicious crisp really fresh side salad! My husband and my brother had their usual pizzas and both said that the pizzas are the best ever. They were enormous with loads of topping. My brother and I managed ice cream although the home-made Tiramisu was so tempting. The table next to us were having the pistachio version of Lemoncello which sadly we could not try as we were all driving but will definitely try it next time. The melon version is delicious. As always the atmosphere was really good. We ended up having a lovely chat with the people on the next table and sadly had we found out earlier they lived in Menai Bridge we could have given them a lift home but their taxi was already outside. This is a very special, very friendly place and is well worth booking. Also you can have a walk on the wonderful Bangor Pier with all its attractions. All in all a really great experience.

Monday 4th September We were staying at the management centre and walked down expecting a nice Italian meal. We got there just after 4 and a couple were sitting on the steps outside although the restaurant was obviously not open. The lady selling tickets on the pier told us it always opened at 4. We had a walk along the pier and back and the restaurant still wasn’t open. The sign on the door said ‘closed- call back later’ We tried to ring but no reply. Another couple arrived and said they’d been trying to ring all afternoon! They were disappointed too! The website was obviously wrong and should be updated when you are not open. At least put a note on the door saying when you are open. We won’t be back!!

What a fantastic Italian restaurant. I would highly recommend booking a table as it was fully booked when we visited. Many thanks to the staff for accommodating us as walk ins for 1hr. The pizzas we ordered were absolutely delicious and the service was very swift as we were extremely hungry after a day of hiking.

Wonderful family run restaurant with exceptional food and atmosphere. I've never had a disappointing meal here.

Great dinner on the pier we had starters, mains, dessert, and drinks

Great scallops and Italian desserts. Family friendly.

Fantastic little place ideal for a family meal with a lively 2 year old. Would highly recommend. Food was delicious, great portions and good value for money. Staff were superb, friendly and efficient.

The food was excellent, a real “cut above” much of the competition in Bangor. A full Italian menu. Good quality dishes and friendly staff. It is a bustling place. Even mid-week you would be advised to book,

We ate here on two consecutive nights in Bangor. The first visit was based on the really good online reviews; the second visit was because our first time was so fantastic. On both visits, the food was excellent and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We can’t recommend the place highly enough.

Came here without a booking which was not advisable however they did accommodate us for an hour agreed at the beginning. We had main course which were all enjoyed. We will come back again during our holiday stay but definitely book in advance next time

The restaurant kindly fitted our large party in for a family meal. The food was as usual lovely and tasty, everyone was satisfied. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Thank you, we’ll be back soon!

Food is ok, but we had to wait for one hour before our pre-ordered starters were served. Staff were friendly but there is room for improvement in the logistics department. Our party of 24 was clearly too big to handle, but it is a popular...

Food was alright, had meatballs were a decent 7/10 cook at home kind of thing. The service was poor, bearded waiter was trying to serve another table while taking our food order. Then forgit most of it so we didnt get 2 starters, 1 main...

Excellent Italian food. Lovely staff. We went there twice on a recent trip to the area and we look forward to going again whenever we're back in Snowdonia. I highly recommend it!

I was taken out for dinner by the Friends of Bangor Garth Pier - this restaurant is down by the pier.. As a big group, we had pre-ordered. I had the Meatballs to start. They were amazing. The highlight for me was the Seafood Risotto...

Staff were very helpful, managed to squeeze us in at short notice. We both had a pasta dish, both very tasty and good value for money. Restaurant was very busy and they were having to turn customers away but the service was spot on. Definitely...

We really enjoyed the food and atmosphere, authentic Italian food Highly recommend this restaurant

I’m a regular at this place. I always recommend them and feel confident in doing so. My girlfriend treated me to a meal here tonight for my birthday. The waiting on service was poor. The lady with the glasses made us wait at the door...

Beautiful location. Friendly service. We had pasta pesto and amatriciano. Both were excellent. Highly recommend.

Stumbled across this restaurant by accident as it was our first time in the area. Evening time and on the off chance they had a table. Although they did have a busy schedule, they did find a table for myself and the wife. It felt...
