The best restaurants in Cardiff South Wales

Best coffee in Cardiff & even better community ❤️

They accept the order then cancel it after wasting all your time, the food is rubbish 🗑

Had a wonderful salad bowl, the flavours were spot on. Probably one of the tastiest salads I've ever had, super filling and nutritious. Well done ladies!! 👏

Amazing food with best service.

Great italian restaurant. The food is delicious and the staff is great!

The bean soup was predominantly lentils. The crab linguine was too salty. The house wines, priced at £26, were mediocre.

Big Moose is, hands down, my favorite spot in Cardiff. After living abroad for 18 months, it was the first place I had to visit for lunch now that I’m back - and it’s just as good as I remember. The warm, wholesome vibes and brilliant atmosphere make it such a special place. Tucked away off Queen Street, it’s a true hidden gem. It often looks closed from the outside because there’s no sign, but that just adds to its charm—it really is one of Cardiff’s best-kept secrets. The limey avocado is to die for! I had the Big Moose Classic with a poached egg added—absolutely delicious. I also tried the Baileys hot chocolate from their Christmas drinks specials, and it was perfection. If you haven’t been yet, you’re seriously missing out!

Great place to sit and have great food midday! We arrived early and also got sat immediately, food came quickly and served by the magnificent Ronny ❤️ Highly recommend and will come again when I come back to Cardiff x

Ordered the mixed grill platter for 2 for delivery. Honestly one of the best mixed grills I’ve ever had, I’ve been wanting to try Persian food for ages now and this was a great introduction to it. Both my husband and I enjoyed it thoroughly, would want to visit the actual restaurant with the family prior to leaving Cardiff.

Amazing food every single time - I’ve gone to this restaurant 6-7 times in the last year and it has never disappointed. I am looking forward to an expansion in space though as it can get a bit crowded - cosy nonetheless:)

We had our wedding at De Courcey’s in October 2024. From initial consultations to the day after our event, the staff were professional, friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. Anything we requested or suggested, Lewis, Lucy and the team worked their hardest to make it happen. They use their expertise and professionalism to advise us where necessary and we felt looked after every step of the way. You’re getting experience when you book with this venue. We can’t thank the team enough - you can tell it is a family run business. We look forward to joining you for Sunday lunches for years to come❤️

Best coffee in Cardiff just wish the atmosphere was nicer. Inside is small, outside you have the ugly view of St Marys Street and the Warhammer shop lol. Still 5* because the coffee is miles miles miles better than literally anywhere else in Cardiff. Very big avocado toast portion too 😋

Extremely disappointed with the way I was spoken to, won't come back again

I had the pleasure of dining at Casablanca, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The lamb dish I ordered - though tricky to pronounce - was nothing short of spectacular. The meat was so tender it fell off the bone, and the flavors were a delightful explosion of spices, perfectly balanced and deeply satisfying. My friends and I tried the Moroccan tea, and it was an absolute hit - aromatic, vibrant, and incredibly flavorsome. They couldn’t stop raving about how "banging" it was, and I couldn’t agree more. What truly made the evening special, though, was the hospitality. Ayub and the rest of the staff were incredibly welcoming, warm, and friendly. Their openness and genuine care for their guests created an atmosphere that felt like home. Casablanca isn’t just a restaurant - it’s an experience. From the food to the service, everything was flawless. I can’t recommend it enough!

Great service great staff. Keep up the great work kind regards Keith
