The best restaurants serving Italian food in Bristol, City of South West

Arancini at the harborside food market, absolutely delicious, big too!

A creative take on Italian cuisine, bursting with flavor and flair. Every pasta dish is as delicious as ever. Panna cotta was scrumptious too. Sip on fabulous Aperols and finish your meal with an ice cool smooth Limoncello Exceptional service that makes you feel right at home. No WiFi, though the chefs were super kind to let me tether off their mobile. An absolute must-visit when in Bristol!

Cute little gem on Gloucester road! Superb service, great food and super friendly staff. Great selection of vegetarian and vegan options too :)

best panino I have ever had in my life, fresh ingredients and worth the price. Very friendly stuff and lovely atmosphere, I will definitely come back.

- Quoted my fiance after he ate his first vegan burger in his life. We have met with our friends there last Saturday. That was the second time for me there and could not agree more with my fiancé. The fact that he loved it tells everything! Their burgers are tasty, and you can ask them in a GF bun, which is the best-selling point for me! We tried: the Moving Mountain with vegan cheese and added extra BBQ Jackfruit topping. The soy patty was delicious & perfectly seasoned. He went for the Veg Burger in Crispy Crumb because he loves a crunch! Double patty, extra jalapenos with very hot sriracha and cheese. The garlic aioli and rich tomato sauce on the side were dreamy! We added normal and sweet potato fries too! The food feels fairly priced, and the service is generally pretty quick. Not to mention our food been served by the lovely Chef, named Istvan. Your health is in a good hand there so you should check out that place if you have not already!

Walked to this place from Clifton to check out my favourite Keralan dish abd it was absolutely worth the visit. The food was absolutely delicious and I cannot praise it enough. I was very pleased and got very home sick too. My favourite was the biriyani with parathas. I would highly advise them to use tap water facility instead of plastic bottles. The staff were absolutely lovely and very helpful. Can’t wait to try more of their dishes and recommend them to all me mates! Well done guys!

Ordered on Uber eats, driver cancelled on me twice which meant order took over an hour. The restaurant called me and apologised and the staff were absolutely lovely and offered to remake the food which was very kind of them. They then wrote a lovely apology message on the box and sent both the original pizza and the new pizza they cooked which was very kind of them. Pizza was also amazing best I have ever had!! Thank you!

We went there last night and were treated like kings and queens from the moment we arrived to when we left. Unbelievable food, unbelievable service. Would go there again in a heartbeat. Those anchovies! 🤤

My daughter Maria booked to take me here for dinner for pre Mother’s Day celebrations. What can I say she chose very well , this place was exactly the sort of wine bar and atmosphere I love . This was our first visits . We had great food great wine and the atmosphere was really great so nice and chilled . And I have to say the staff were really great and very attentive. Look forward to visiting again soon . Thank you for a lovely evening 👍😊

Excellent pizza and a reasonable price!! ✨🍕✨

Swoon's gelato is so smooth and sweet, it's unreal. Definitely try the pistachio, it's amazing. The cherry amarena is also a winner, so good. Perfect treat for a sunny day. Highly recommend checking them out!

Staff are always friendly, good food, fair price & quick service.

Really good quality food, great value for money, fantastic atmosphere, and service, would highly recommend

Pure Pasta is in Saint Nicholas Market and is run by a lovely, friendly, Italian couple. The food is tasty and excellent value, whether you take away or eat inside the small unit/the couple of tables just outside. The pair of us left feeling pleasantly full and with change from £20 despite having a couple of 'starters', main meals and a can of diet coke each.

Lovely intimate restaurant, fantastic service. Good menu although need to find another bread to use other than panini(bruscheta, garlic bread etc). Had a few drinks so bill was top heavy!
