Check your bill before you leave- a few years ago we came here for my son’s birthday- a groups of eight of us. The bill was incorrect, lots of dishes had been charged twice. They apologised and sorted it. We often pop in for ice cream with the children and like the establishment, so have it the benefit of the doubt. This weekend we had seven of us again celebrating a birthday, the bill was £230. After going through it item by item, the correct bill was £140. They apologised and sorted it, but seems to me like they’re adding extra items on to get customers who might not check to pay more.

Absolutely delicious food and in huge portions. I had a ham and mushroom calzone which is uncommon and right up my street - and with lashings of sauce. My kids thought it was the best thing ever! Great service too, they were very accommodating to squeeze us in. Great selection of gelato to finish.

An amazing find , will travel back to York just to visit. I've never eaten in a Sicilian restaurant before and was not disappointed. It is similar to Italian food, but much more refined than rustic like it's Italian neighbours. We had chickpea fritters and chicken wings to start. Loads of incredible subtle flavours. Then we had the calzoni and a mushroom pizza . The calzoni was massive but every bite was different. The mozzarella was amazing as was the rich tomato sauce. The best we have ever had of these two meals anywhere, including new York and Venice. They also have an ice-cream bar which has amazing fresh ice-cream. Average price for York, top notch quality for anywhere in the world.

Amigable, buen ambiente, muchos muchos maravillosos - cosas que se ven en el menú además de pizza, y la gelatina parecía absolutamente espectacular. Era obvio que había muchos clientes habituales felices que regresaban, y no los culpo: este lugar es genial. Si viviera más cerca, yo también sería un visitante frecuente aquí. A cualquiera que tenga la suerte de recordar el glorioso Fiddie's, en la calle Finchley Road en el norte de Londres: Trinacria es tan buena como Fiddie solía ser, de hecho, tal vez incluso mejor! Gracias Trinacria, por una comida muy apreciada.

Reservamos en este restaurante ya que estaba a la vuelta de la esquina de nuestro hotel. Afortunadamente nos encajaron en temprano, ya que teníamos una reserva posterior. El servicio fue educado y atento. Gran variedad de comida, tuve la sopa minestrone y mi pareja tuvo las alitas de pollo para empezar, ambas deliciosas. Luego comí tagliatelle de marisco, ¡unos mejillones regordetes preciosos! Mi compañero tenía las albóndigas lingüinas, igualmente muy buenas. Lavado con una bonita jarra blanca de vino. Los postres eran buenos, gran variedad de helados, mi compañero tenía el tiramisú con helado de pistacho. Muy bien valorado y lo recomendaría para cenar casualmente.

Came to visit for lunch and was very disappointed. Ordered 2 pizza’s and they were both so sloppy and couldn’t even be picked up which was such a shame and one of them was black burnt on the edge. The waitress was helpful, however the chef was extremely rude when the waitress returned with the pizza for them to be changed. Which left us feeling uncomfortable. The flavour wasn’t bad, but unfortunately we won’t be returning.

La comida de los restaurantes es consistentemente buena ( y ha sido durante los últimos 2 años ) y si tienes espacio puedes tener el mejor helado en York como desierto. El personal es atento y te hace sentir como en casa al igual que Bepe que es dueño del lugar. El jueves es la noche de música en vivo, por lo que vamos allí para escuchar a algún artista real tocar jazz suave o música folk mientras comemos algo de buena comida.

I have to write a review because it is incredibly rare to find somewhere that looks after and takes care of you with warmth, kindness and excellent fresh food to top it off. We turned up without a booking on the weekend with a baby and a very tired 4yr old. They read the situation and helped us to enjoy our meal and keep the children happy. We last came here pre Covid (not local to the area) a walk in again, and I remember having to tell the chef how good the risotto was. Thank you, we can't wait to come back.

I can't really review the food, as we were never allowed in to try it. Twice. The first attempt was at about 8:15 on a Tuesday evening. They had customers, but not like a line out the door. We were asked if we had a reservation. No, it's a pizza joint. Oh sorry, we're fully booked. Ok.... The (very good) Thai place had room for us. Two days later at 6PM! We were again asked if we had reservations! It was practically empty. They can't make a pizza for two without prior notice? No room, go away. I suggest you take them at their word, and go elsewhere.

This really is a gem of a restaurant just outside the centre of York. The road itself has a nice feel and the restaurant encapsulates it nicely with a warm and atmospheric feel that does feel authentically Italian. The menu is extensive but not overwhelmingly and food is reasonably priced. On this visit I ordered the diavolo pizza (with added anchovies!) and was one of the best pizzas that I’ve ever had. All other meals were excellent, freshly cooked (in the open kitchen) and served promptly. Service was warm, friendly and efficient. We topped our lovely visit off with an ice cream each which is an absolute MUST for anyone visiting. The meal came to £70 for four who all had a main meal and a drink. Fantastic place that we consistently recommend to friends and we can’t wait to return.

Rarely do I eat something as rudimentary as a carbonara and exclaim "this is ruddy delicious!!". Possibly the best I've ever eaten. Our lass had the mussels (looked and smelled delicious- sadly I cannot eat them). She said they were divine. Great selection of wines. Simple menu- every dish I saw looked lovely. Great friendly, unobtrusive service. High quality food, and good value to boot. Looking forward to more summer evenings outside this gem.

Lovely food and attentive staff. Nice to eat in a family run restaurant rather than a chain. Restaurant is quite crowded inside and felt slightly hemmed in. Nice atmosphere with lots of people chatting away. Live music also played while we were there. The pizza are 13" so quite large. Only downside was that the pizza had too much tomato for me and this made the base soggy. Still a lovely pizza and I cleared my plate.

What a lie and we have been just watching them. I get why they took them because they are local but the manager should have taken us first! And pizza didnt came out for 20mins and they served other tables but we don’t ! It was above the oven!!! Highly do not recommended this Place.

Disappointed that we got there too early for lunch on a Saturday, but the brunch did not disappoint! The poached eggs in tomato sauce with sausage, as well as the sausage panini were both phenomenal. The sandwich was simple but a generous portion and made of high quality ingredients. The egg dish was packed to the brim with flavor (and also quite grande)! I wish we had learned about this place earlier so that we could have come back again during our trip and try the pizza and pasta.

I was so disappointed by this restaurant, after reading all the amazing reviews I had such high hopes so I booked to go for my partner’s birthday. It took forever for the server to come over for our drinks order and in the middle of taking it her friends turned up and she stopped to hug them and say hello before finally turning back to us, it took nearly an hour to take our food order and when the food came it was very average. Overcooked calamari, spicy red sauce mussels when we had asked for them in white wine and the plain garlic bread covered in tomato sauce. The mains were fine but not fantastic and just throughout the evening I felt we were not being seen to. We had to flag down servers to get more drinks and had to go up to the bar to get the bill because our server had sat down with her friends and was of no help that evening. I really hate leaving reviews like this but we will definitely not be going back here. Just feels like a waste of time, effort and money for everyone.

Spaghetti carbonara, and the spaghetti with mussels in a spicy tomato sauce. Both are very good. An ample amount of mussels, but for me, a little more spice in the sauce wouldn't have gone a miss 😉. 1 dessert of chocolate ice cream. Right up there with some of the best I've ever eaten. I've heard great things of this place before, and now I'm glad to have finally ventured in.

Really disappointing experience after a previously good meal here. We waited over an hour after being seated to receive any food. The system in this place is ridiculous, giving drinks quickly but unwilling to take food orders; there are obviously problems in the kitchen and with communication with the small service team. The restaurant was very full with one large party and 2 smaller ones but if they can’t deal with that number of customers they shouldn’t take reservations. The food was only adequate, though not special; the lasagne being very sloppy. We will not return.

I cannot begin to tell you what a let down this restaurant is. Considering its location, you’d think they would do better. We popped in for a quick lunch on a Tuesday afternoon. The food was less hit and more miss. We ordered the lasagne which was actually okay, a couple of pizzas (one gluten free) calamari and garlic bread. Firstly, you cannot call what was given to us pizza as it’s a lie. The only similarities in what a pizza is and what we were served was the shape. If you want decent pizza, go to Cresci or Spaghetti Junction which is across the road. No charring on the pizza, no cornicione with crunchy edge on the outside and light and soft on the inside. Please advertise as ‘our best effort at pizza’ and the correct methods or just don’t make pizza. The calamari….£9 for around 10 pieces of frozen calamari is an absolute joke. The garlic bread looked like it had been bought at Tesco and there was a distinct lack of garlic with oddly, a tomato sauce on it. The lasagne was their only saving grace. Let’s get onto the customer service. Disappointing to say the very least. Once we were eventually seated, we were left in the wilderness for around 10 minutes. When our order was eventually taken, the waitress was attentive although I have issues with my food and drink order taken in one go. The whole place looked highly disorganised, staff sat at the bar on their break, staff eating behind the bar and a severe lack of actually being felt like we were welcome. When it came to leaving we asked for a box for our unfinished pizza. You would have thought we had asked them to get out of a complex escape room for all the time it took. I left extremely disappointed by the whole experience. How this place is still in business is beyond me. For what they provide, they definitely shouldn’t be. What was most upsetting is that I had to pay for the ordeal. P.s. if you are going to advertise carbonara, have the decency to list with the correct ingredients. Cream and bacon don’t belong anywhere near this dish.

Just been today to try it for the 1st time. The spaghetti with mussels was very tasty and cooked well. Good wine. Unfortunately the service wasn't great. Although friendly, they just didn't seem to notice I was there despite me being at the table closest to the bar where the staff all congregate. I would have had another drink and perhaps a dessert but neither was offered to me. Had to flag staff down to ask for the bill and had to get up and approach the bar to ask to pay despite there being at least 4 staff within 3 metres of me. Just felt like a burden by the end. Maybe because I was a lone diner so less important? Not sure really. Left hurriedly without leaving a tip which is unheard of for me. Would probably try again as the food was good but won't hurry back or particularly recommend.

Great food but let down by service. I was basically ignored. Started well but could not attract anyone's attention to order another drink so just didn't bother. Struggled again to get anyone's attention to get the bill and eventually pay. Not sure why this was so problematic as there were at least 3 staff members gathered at the bar right in front of me at any given time but they just weren't paying attention which proved so frustrating that I left without leaving a tip which is not something I ever do.

Delicious meal, with good vegan options and multiple vegan ice creams! The best vegan affogato I've had in years! Good wine list too.

We had lunch at Trinacria on Sunday, sat outside alfresco with our dog. The food was exceptionally good. I had the seafood spaghetti (from the specials) and it was spot on. The Galetto was also very good. We spent a leisurely lunch and we weren’t rushed by the staff at all. There is a small area inside the restaurant (by the window on high seats) that is a dog friendly for when the weather isn’t accommodating. Highly recommended.

We had a very nice meal here, very friendly staff and a nice quiet environment. I had the diavolo pizza which was one of the best I have had in a while.

Probablemente uno de mis lugares favoritos para comer! A mí y a mi novio nos encanta el italiano, y vimos que no estaba demasiado ocupado, y no demasiado vacío, así que lo probamos. Mejor. Decisión. Nunca. El servicio al cliente fue increíble, cada miembro del personal era muy amable y educado. La comida llegó dentro de los 10 minutos de espera! Al principio pensé que mi comida no se habría cocinado correctamente porque llegó muy rápido, pero mi Lasaña y mis novios Calzone eran tan frescos y sabrosos! Creo que los precios en el menú eran muy buenos también, teniendo en cuenta que la comida era tan sabrosa con grandes porciones. Pagué alrededor de £ 11 por mi lasaña, y £ 4. ¡50 por mi vino! Muy buen precio. Lo único de lo que podría quejarme es de que es solo efectivo, ¡por suerte tenía efectivo encima! Cuando les dije que mantuvieran el cambio (alrededor de £ 7 ) fueron muy agradecidos y nos dieron tiros de limoncello gratis! Mamma mia.

Unfortunately did not have a great experience here due to mistakes that could have been avoided, we booked a table for a work celebration there was about 20 of us, we preordered based off the menu online. I had preordered penne marinara from their online menu, as I am from England I understood that this was just a tomato pasta sauce, and there is nothing on their online menu to suggest marinara is seafood, however I received a penne pasta with tomato sauce and seafood. My sister is allergic to seafood and I don’t eat it to keep her safe. I told them I didn’t order seafood penne, he became angry and shouted at me that I did, I asked to see the menu when he showed me, that’s when we all realised their online menu is different to the one in the restaurant, he brought me a menu to say marinara is seafood, but this is not mentioned on the online menu we used when we preordered, and unfortunately being English and not being Italian, marinara in England is just tomato garlic sauce not seafood like it is in Italy, my fault for not knowing marinara means seafood in Italian but the manager or owner who was serving us just began shouting at me. A female waitress apologised and moved him away from me and brought me just a tomato penne pasta said sorry again and understood what had happened and fixed the issue without an issue, clearly a mistake on both parts. After I’d eaten it the angry manager came over and asked me how my seafood pasta was sarcastically. 3 or 4 of us preordered the online menu tomato garlic bread to start, and one of us ordered a tomato garlic bread for their main. But when it arrived in the restaurant it was a plain garlic pizza bread, as their menu in their restaurant is different to the one online and doesn’t include tomato. Also despite pre ordering two of the starters were missing and had to be chased up 10 mins or so after we had all eaten our starters and the same happened again for our mains, two were missing and a side of chips which we had to chase up. We spent about £582 and just didn’t feel we had a good experience despite pre ordering and we even brought our pre order on a document with us to make sure we were organised when we got there. Food was excellent however and we had a good time. Just a shame to be shouted at in a restaurant by the manager at what clearly was a genuine mistake, as I don’t speak Italian.
