The best restaurants serving Italian food in Oxford South East

As the other reviewers have commented this is fantastic ice cream, the best I've had here in the UK. For other comparable ice creams I've had I would mention Fenocchio in Nice, and Messina in Sydney. But if you don't want to fly for your ice cream here it is in Oxford.

10/10 recommend for italian in Oxford. Top-notch taste, great service, staff were quite open to questions and customisation. A lot of quality options for vegetarian, vegan and gluten free.

Fantastic restaurant with great food and service. The Lasagne was amazing

¡El mejor helado de Oxford y una gran selección de sabores! Mi favorito era un "bollo de cruz fría". Nos encanta este lugar y es muy céntrico!

Perhaps some of the best pizzas I’ve had! The porcini mushrooms pizza is the absolute best and mushrooms pizzas will never be the same. The garlic oil and chilli oil are the best addition to the pizza and just help to mix things up a little bit. It’s a must visit whenever I’m down in Oxford!

If I could give this a 6 stars I would NO bad things about this place it's like a dream the food is CRAZY GOOD!! if you want to go on a date this is the place I highly recommend

Fui a desayunar y tomé un café con pan casero cubierto con salmón, aguacate, tomate y ensalada. Los ingredientes sabían tan fresco y la porción era masiva - me quité la mitad y tenía para el almuerzo, tan increíble valor. Esta será mi opción cuando esté en Oxford en el futuro.

they have the best pizza and all the workers are so so nice

Unfortunately, Bacaro got it all wrong for our visit. The place was quiet when we entered with only 2-3 tables occupied by couples. An initial comment was made by one of our party, I am paraphrasing here, "It can't be very good if it's this quiet on a Saturday night!", which was subsequently proven correct. We were seated and a drinks order taken, with some ambiguity surrounding whether or not we could order certain drinks. Nevertheless, the waitress returned with our ordered drinks and took our food order. One member of our party chose to have 2 starters for her main, which we requested be brought with the rest of the meals, they were not. Giving the benefit of the doubt, we waited for the rest of the mains to arrive, all pizzas, which seem to take an inordinate amount of time to prepare and cook, given that there were not many people in the restaurant at the time. As a side note at this point, two further couples had come and gone, before we had received our mains! With all of this set aside, a good meal can make up for the poor service, however, that was not to be the case. The food quality was very poor, making it seem like this was the first time the chef had attempted to make pizzas. Tasteless and doughy! It really was a poor effort all round. The whole experience was compounded by the negative, dismissive and quite frankly rude, response to our complaints, by the owner/head chef. It was amateur at very best and not a experience that I will partake in again. Many better restaurants down the Cowley Road to visit.

Hemos comido en este restaurante durante varios años, pero nos fuimos decepcionados después de nuestra visita del domingo. Después de pedir un gluten - entrante libre y principal, la ensalada de pimiento romano llegó sin pimientos. La primera razón aducida fue que había gluten en los pimientos (aunque pedido en el menú gluten - gratis) , y cuando se nos preguntó más, nos dijeron que los pimientos no estaban en temporada. Esto fue seguido por encontrar una etiqueta de plástico en su boca desde su inicio. El camarero dijo que probablemente era de un recipiente de queso... Luego, el lado de mi marido de "verduras de temporada" se olvidó y solo llegó después de que se le preguntó al camarero dónde estaban (y hacia el final de la comida) y resultó ser solo un plato de judías verdes, que estoy seguro de que no se ajustan a los criterios de temporada ... Realmente decepcionado 😞

Good pizzeria with real Italian feel.

Visiting Oxford for a days with a group staying in Cowley and we got pizza and pasta to go and everything we got was fantastic. Highly recommended.

Hi so I was invited to my friends birthday on the 7th October was a 18th birthday party. My friend and his twin payed for 50 pizzas which were £400 and and that’s a lot of money to waste and the owner said they will not give a refund because he was adamant that there was 50 and said to my mate we can’t see the cameras. Truth to be told I did not drink and there was definitely not 50 there was no more then 20. Service was bad the staff that were running the bar were 17 and really undertrained and it was a busy capacity I was waiting 20 minutes for a drink. Truth to be told the pizzas were nice but there wasn’t enough. Also another problem why we think that the owner didn’t make all the pizzas my friend had a catering service there that made food at the same time. Sorry this is so long but the last problem was I brought my friend a £76 bottle of champagne and I knew he got a few more bottles to he asked the people behind the bar to look after them and he insisted they would he asked them if they were sure and they really insisted they got took to. So it wasn’t a good night and we are all fuming 😤

Food was delicious. However pizza wasnt cut into pieces. The knife was dull. We tried to cut and couldn’t. Then we asked the waitress to bring it to us cut. She refused.

One of the worst pizzas I’ve had. Too much dough, very little toppings and cheese. Cocktails come in kinda cheap looking water glasses, didn’t like the vibe, but main point again the lack of taste.
