Valentino’s Bellissimo in Richmond upon Thames

First class Italian food at sensible prices including lovely wine. Chami and his team are fantastic hosts! A must try venue 👍

A thin crust pizza, with good quality salami - similar to those at Pizza Express but cheaper. I ate in - a little bottle of Coca cola was £3.45; perhaps a bit more than I would have wanted to pay, but I guess they have to make a profit somehow. Attentive table service. Coffee was available with oat and soya alternatives, and is a typical dark Italian roast. A small restaurant with a couple of tables on the street - I ate inside.

A real taste of Italy, wonderful food, excellent coffee and real Italian charm and friendliness. Excellent value.

A lovely meal served by a lovely waitress, my partner and I had a fantastic time!

New management have changed the name and totally changed the menu to a bog-standard Italian menu. Why buy an established and much-loved local restaurant with a loyal clientele and change everything! I wish them luck but I don't see anything on their menu to entice me back anytime soon

This restaurant is permanently closed and now under new management with a new name

This Resturant always have the same scruffy men chain smoking outside the restaurant. These same men also sit inside the restaurant during closing ours participating in ASB.(Anti Social Behavior) There are many wholesome Italian restaurants in Twickenham and this is not one of them!

The food is very nice, lovely. Unfortunately we can’t tell the same about some members of the staff. There is a, with all due respect, mature woman who is very nice and I and my partner are always happy to go there when she is in as we feel very very well served. But sometimes there is another younger woman there, who is not that nice, sometimes is rude, doesn't offer or has those little details which make you feel good and well-served. This situation with this woman has happened more than once, so from now on we will definitively avoid😥going to Valentino’s when she is in.

Very nice food and attentive sevice

Had a really great all round experience at Valentino's on Valentines day just past. A friendly greeting on arrival and quickly shown to our table which had a great view of the open view kitchen, which for any food fan is always an added bonus! They were quick to take a drinks order, and go over the menu with us. The wine we went for was lovely and really affordable. The food menu itself was a special one just for Valentines day. It was refreshingly different to the stereotypical Italian restaurant menu you normally see, with a selection of veggie, fish and meat options to choose from! I enjoyed a beautiful veal ragu, and my girlfriend had a lovely chicken fillet dish with a great shiitake mushroom sauce and a creamy mash - well presented, tasty and hearty food! Our dessert - a limoncello and pomegranate panna cotta - was definitely the star of the show and a great end to a lovely meal. All in all it was a great experience, priced reasonably given the quality of the food, efficient and friendly service, and will definitely go back again!

My daughter has been nagging me to try this little gem. Well tonight we visited. What an absolute diamond of a restaurant. The food was mouth wateringly delicious. The service was above and beyond. I cannot recommend visiting Twickenham’s little gold mine. Thank you

Good food and service . Staff very friendly

love the food and great service would recommend to any one

Nice restaurant and nice staff.

Excellent pizza and excellent friendly service

OMG! Me and my boyfriend where just passing by this place looking for a place to go for diner. I don't usually go to Italian restaurants and I used to work in one and I'm Spanish. The smell coming out of it was unbelievable so we walked back, and was greated by a lovely lady. The food is unbelievable, the potions are huge and the price is really reasonable. Only downfall... The don't do vegan. Will I come back? Hell yes!

Excellent place for pre rugby food and drink.

Great choice of lovely food with gentle friendly service.

Decent coffee but the staff were rude.

The steak pizza is worth a Nobel prize

We tried this restaurant having previously always been put off by the scruffy looking men who always seem to be sitting outside chain smoking. Anyway, we won’t be back. Someone else mentioned that the food tasted cheap and we concur. Even my daughter described her dish as disgusting! My advice, don’t waste your money. There are some fabulous Italians around the area, e.g masinello, sebastians, de posto.

Fantastic Breakfast, Great value for £6.95.

Nice healthy salad and fresh food !

Decided to go here on date night with my lovely girlfriend, was accompanied really well by the waitress who let us try different wines until we was satisfied! Great food and even better service!

Really impressed, no booking and had a lovely evening for 8 colleagues with an excellent sea bass main alongside all the Italian staples

Thoroughly enjoyable lunch with family. Great food and excellent service.

Had a pizza , a calzone and a lasagne delivered via Deliveroo. Food was absolutely amazing, I ate the lot alone in one evening 😅 . Well packaged, tasty , authentic Italian food. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

having a coffee on regular base here. still i can only say. nice little place with lovely staff. well done

Fantastic service, quick ordering and lovely reception from the staff. Lots of choice on the menu, good portion sizes and tasty! Great music on too. I felt like I was in Rome!

Lovely food and pre rugby atmosphere!

Absolutely wonderful food very good value for money (generous portions) cooked fresh , menu has excellent choices and I believe that their coffee is the BEST in Twickenham, staff are friendly and helpful

Food portion and quality both are great. Price also very reasonable. Highly recommended.

Great food, lovely staff and nice atmosphere, well priced. Cant fault it, my new favourite cafe and restaurant

Very inviting little spot, the staff are great and the food was gorgeous. We visited after a day at the rugby and without a booking. They were packed but made space for us and then took care of us very well. The aubergine parm was my highlight. Wine menu looked well sorted but we didnt look past the Barolo, which at £45 is in my view unheard of. I am going to book a birthday party here its got such a great vibe (to the owners - thanks for not kicking us out despite you being all washed up and ready to leave)

Pretty disappointing unfortunately, the place looks very good has a lot of potential to be a very good Restaurant, but the food wasn't the greatest, cheap quality ingredients. The guy who apparently was the manager, had a grumpy face all the time, and very unfriendly attitude. Not likely coming back.

Food was excellent. Service good. Lovely ambience.

Excellent food and lovely staff, really enjoyed our lunch there

This restaurant has great character & the food is superb.

Lovely staff and delicious food! It made for a wonderful birthday dinner!

Amazing food, beautiful atmosphere. It really has a family feel. The Caesar salad is the best I've ever had

Great brekkie just look at the picture

Had take away sandwiches from there today, the staff was really nice and made a vegetarian option for us as there was non displayed. I had a chicken sandwich as well and both taste good. We tried the chocolate croissant which was okay as it was a little dry. Staff was really nice and kind.

First time having this and probably won’t go back to the hot food. first of all the mashed potato was really good and creamy which I liked but the Lamb shank was so over cooked it tasted like leather, as you can see from the picture it’s so chewy and dry. The Portuguese tart was also decent, shame that the lamb was so awful.

Lovely food but very disappointed with how they adhere to covid guidelines. Been constantly seeing the guy inside serving customers without wearing a mask, as well as letting customers come in without face covering. I won’t get food from Valentino’s anymore until I’ve had my vaccination because it just seems they aren’t taking the pandemic seriously.

Awesome food and great costumer service

Had an amazing take away sandwich today from Valentino’s Bellisimo. I’ve been going for many years, mainly for their lovely breakfasts, pasta and pizza. Today was the first time I had a sandwich and it was one of the best sandwich’s I’ve ever had! Beautiful ciabatta, mozzarella, pesto, avocado and red pepper. I’ll definitely be going back for more and it will be the first place I head to after lockdown for my first meal out!

Excellent pizza and superb coffee

Small and friendly with nice food.

Really enjoyed our meal here last night and the excellent customer service from manager and staff. Well done guys, see you again soon. Tina and Mark

I love this shop They are making very nice coffee

Can NOT rate this place highly enough. The food, staff and overall experience are first rate.... Its solidified itself as our go to for family meals... If you can, and you have the chance then try it. Guaranteed culinary loveliness. 6 out of 5 stars.

excellent food,friendly service and still doing 20% discount on food and drink.

Great coffee and friendly staff...outside tables

Great food but main arrived whilst still eating starter. Was very rushed and finished eating by 9.20pm so we had time before 10pm closing. Had to leave most of main as it was to much too quick.

Great staff and food whats notvto like!

I just ate the most delicious Aubergine Parmigiana. Honestly the best I've ever had! Thank you! Love the pizza there too, something about the tomato sauce that really takes me back to Italy. Atmosphere is so natural and friendly. Highly recommend.

Lovey meal and the staff were very welcoming, great value for money!

Fresh, authentic, reasonably priced and has that rustic charm others try to imitate.

Amazing food!! So delicious. Lovely ambience and good fast service. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Will definitely return. I am not usually so enthusiastic about food but this pasta and dessert that I had was outstanding. Loved it!

Stumbled upon this place as our expected restaurant was closed, but glad we did, it was definitely the better choice! Above average quality and taste for the same tier and even above many higher priced Italian restaurants.

The food was enjoyable and overall we had a good time. However do not go if you are shielding or worried about coronavirus. There are no social distancing measures at all. The tables are really close and staff taking no precautions, no masks or sanitisers anywhere. It was concerning and made the experience not as good as it could’ve been.

Lovely restaurant and friendly service

Sat outside and shared a Pizza Caprase and a Calamari for lunch - relaxed friendly service - the food was really excellent and very reasonably priced - will def stop by again and recommend to friends

Nice and professional stuff... Good food and environment...

Wonderful, family owned Italian restaurant in the heart of Twickenham with fantastic Pizza and Pasta dishes. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the restaurant has a cozy warm feeling when you walk in. Livia and Alkert at the front of house are lovely. Plus they have Moretti on tap and great coffee. 👍👍

Always a great experience. Constantly impressed by the friendly service and how nice the food is, whether it's pizza, pastry or sandwich. Great coffee and beer too 😊

Loved it here. Great coffee and great friendly service 👍

Just ordered a take away (because we can't eat in at the moment) and the pizza was delicious! We're so pleased with our meal - we're all in agreement to order from Valentino's again and visit properly when we're allowed to.

Made a pre-order via just eat around 9 am just to be texted about 1pm that the order has been cancelled. Will not order again, time wasters

Amazing food, served with best service. If you miss the pizza in this quarantine time they do home delivery home.

First class service! Have always enjoyed eating there and now a great delivery option during lockdown, two delicious pasta meals and dessert, really generous portions and a speedy service!!

Just ordered for delivery amazing pizza , so lucky that you guys are open .best Italian in twickenham .

Service, food and value all right

Wow, a decent Italian independent. Food and wine were spot on.

Friendly staff, Italian food cooked by Italians

Local Italian of mixed region fare but all authentic to their respective region. Versatile chef who consistently delivers quality and at more than reasonable prices. Best in show

Food was nice but the service was so slow - over an hour from ordering to eating due to short staffing

Had cray fish and pasta. Lovely. Quaint atmosphere and decor. Fantastic staff and reasonable price food. Must resturant to visit when in Twickenham.

Nice friendly café/restaurant Great Italian food. Warm, cosy, and snug ambiance. Highly recommended! Also cater for English preferences. I say " go for it"!

Homely Italian restaurant on London Road, Twickenham. I visited this place for lunch before Rugby. It was good Italian food, the wild boar ragu and pasta was a stand out dish. The wine was rather good considering the price per bottle. I'd recommend this place but would advise booking as there are limited tables.

It was great , apart from the 2 dogs that they allowed in. We had to move tables as my daughter was not comfortable eating near them

Well prepared food, fast service. Excellent for a working lunch.

Amazing food, staff were so friendly

Used it for breakfast at work food is ok quick service

Lovely lovely restaurant. First time and will definitely be back. Food is delicious and service is good.

Absolutely brilliant restaurant staff were very polite and friendly seemed like it wasn't a job to them and they enjoy a hobby they've created first time taking my partner out in 3 years because of our kiddies and I wouldn't have chosen a different restaurant brought me and my partner to tears with the scenery and the food was amazing... Thank you for the service provided will 100% be back for our next date night!!!

Great Italian restaurant. Been here quite a few times, food and service always excellent.

Great service and fantastic food

The food took a little while to come but it was worth the wait. Our waiter was very friendly (I forgot his name but he was Kosovo). The atmosphere was very laid back and romantic. I would definitely visit again

Great place to eat in Twickenham

Great authentic Italian. Very accommodating.

Lovely little Italian restaurant with friendly staff. It can get very busy but the service is efficient. We visited after an England International at Twickenham stadium and the place had a real buzz to it. Didn't have to wait too long for a table and we were served quickly with our delicious pasta meals. Would visit again.

Great food, lovely staff and a great atmosphere

Had a really nice pizza and red wine dinner here. The garlic bread is massive! Very nice food.

A nice place to eat after a good rugby match.

Definitely one of the best Italian restaurants I have been to, highly recommend!!

Had a good evening here. Food is well priced and the woman we had serving us was lovely. My food tasted great but my girlfriends carbonara had super tough meat and garlic bread was kind of bland. The decor is really cosy though and I would go back again.

Had a great birthday night for the gang

Great food and service in a lovely restaurant. Loved it! Great value for money.

Amazing food, amazing space & amazing staff... Think I've said amazing enough, but really a great place! Lots of seating in a really cool quirky style and layout. Staff are very friendly and accommodating, food extremely tasty and moorish, chefs obviously care about each meal... Can't wait to go back 😁
