The best restaurants serving Italian food in Plymouth South West

I found this stall a couple of years ago and travel from Torbay to visit it. My favourire dish that I have tried so far is the crispy belly pork, which is just awesome. Massaman curry (peanut based) is great too. So many nice dishes.

Another fantastic meal at Positanos for an 80th birthday celebration. Food and service are always brilliant, that's why it's been our favourite restaurant in Plymouth for the past 25 years.

Visited without booking and luckily they had room for our group of 8, and there was plenty of variety on the menu to suit us all. I opted for the vegetarian stilton pasta, as I absolutely adore blue cheese. My husband chose the seafood pizza and we shared a side of nachos. We enjoyed our meals and the service was swift and friendly. Good options for vegetarians.

Second visit after such nice meals the first time, I chose the carbonara as I had this on the first visit and really enjoyed . This time it was completely tasteless. My wife and daughters meals were very salty and my granddaughter’s spaghetti bolognaise was nothing like a bolognaise with hard carrots and crunchy celery! My granddaughter has a severe food allergy and we are always worried about eating out but as we had eaten here before, and she hadn’t been poorly we were happy that she would be safe. There was nothing suitable for her in the starters section so she chose to have a dessert instead as part of the set meal. Half way through she alerted me to the fact that she had a small piece of plastic in her sorbet. I was a little bit horrified but didn’t say anything and thought,,, these things can happen. After a couple more spoonfuls and a larger piece of plastic I told the waiter and he took it off me and apologised saying it must have been from the sorbet container. No gesture of goodwill offered, not that we would necessarily have accepted but not good service and certainly WONT be going back!

Great food, good for lunch. Better when it’s quiet and we prefer booth tables that are sometimes available. Ordered arancini, rustica pizza and cheesecake.

Staff were friendly, but let down by gross incompetence within their team. Note, the restraunt was no more than one third full. After 45 minutes our starters arrived, with the unwelcome news that our main courses were also ready and did we want them all together. No we didn’t and we were assured they would be remade. A further 45 minutes passes and our, presumably, original main courses arrived. Two lukewarm pasta dishes and a burnt pizza, a sheepish looking waitress declares these will be on the house. Food was edible and my son ate his burnt pizza. We also had a birthday voucher for £15, so the whole experience of dinner for three cost £30. However, it was nothing like the pleasant evening out we had planned. We will be striking this place from our list of eateries.

Bella Italia ya es un conocido que debes comer donde quiera que vayas. Pero este tiene el personal más amable y agradecido de todos los tiempos, particularmente Natalia, es muy amable, atenta y elegante. Ella se asegurará de que disfrutes tu comida y de que no falte nada; además, ¡siempre tiene una sonrisa en su rostro!

Acabo de volver de vacaciones y quería un menú de 3 platos con una buena relación calidad-precio al final de un largo día de viaje. El personal estaba por cerrar pero eran más que dispuesto a permanecer abierto y luego nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos. las porciones buen tamaño y una excelente relación calidad-precio

Pizzas are so tasty! Considering how popular they get at lunch time, the staff are all really quick and friendly. Prices are also pretty good.

Excellent staff, very good food and speedy service. We went back twice. Good location too.

Legitimately the worst pizza I have ever eaten... Granted, this food was ordered via Deliveroo however it took 3 hours to arrive... 3 hours!We ordered the pepperoni pizza, sharer garlic bread and a child's Bolognese... The pizza was burnt on one side, raw on the other and had not even been cut and the cheese tasted like plastic. The garlic bread also had not been cut and tasted like cardboard. The pasta was blatantly old and not fresh as well as being bland and overcooked. I honestly will never eat food from this restaurant ever againThe only saving grace is that we were issued a full refund...

The service in this restaurant is completely unacceptable. Tried to turn us away as they hadn’t had time to clear messy tables. Waited 15 minutes and for the hour and half we were there the same dirty tables were not cleaned. The restaurant was not busy at all. No excuses. Staff never checked if food was ok. Food was actually good but totally let down by the miserable staff and slow service. Much better places to go for the money.

Friendly little boozer. Hidden gem. Takeaway next door which is ideal. Support your local!
