The best restaurants serving Italian food in Poole South West

The food was really good, very tasty, however the service was really poor. We felt tricked into buying bottled water when tap was available. Got given the wrong dish twice which felt like a hassle to fix and made the table feel uncomfortable. Unfortunately I feel like if we had a different waiter my review would have been different. Also the seasonal vegetables were just some cooked pepper and mushroom.

Disappointing. Reading the other reviews on this restaurant, we must have just gone on an off night. The starters were incredible I have to say but that was all that was good about the meal. Absolutely gutted with the main course as we were looking forward to an authentic crispy pizza base. Unfortunately it was really doughy, good taste just inedible base. Ordered new forest ice cream for dessert not convinced. It may have been but could have possibly been in the freezer for a few years. Bit of a shame. We’d like to go back as this is a local restaurant, hopefully they were just having an off night.

Best prawn cocktail starters and delicious sourdough pizza. Thanks to Marco and Emilio. Great service. Location outside overlooking Poole harbour is the best ever location.

We really enjoyed our pizza and salad! Our server was so friendly. The music playing created a lovely Italian ambiance, as well as the great art work.

We had not visited this restaurant before and last night we wanted a quick meal before a meeting. We were warmly greeted by the waiter who introduced himself as Vincenzo. We both had pizzas which were delicious and arrived at the table very quickly. We had delicious coffee afterwards and the cost was very reasonable. We will definitely return when we have a little more time to spend in the restaurant.

Whilst at the beach we decided it would be nice to treat the kids to Pizza. My husband walked up to the restaurant as soon as it opened and ordered 4 takeaway pizzas. My kids are really fussy when it comes to pizza and even they agreed it was the best pizza we’ve had. Next time we will try booking a table, as my husband said it looked really nice inside.

We were served by Sophie who was so friendly, helpful and attentive, seeming genuinely happy to help and serve us to make our dining experience the best it can be. The food and drink was brilliant quality with quick service, although at the time we went you could see the floor stuff were overrun with only around 4 or 5 servers working

Booked on website. Turned up on time. Restaurant was closed. Phoned number provided, no answer. Sent email to address provided. Bounced as undeliverable. I wouldnt waste your time.

Went on a Thursday, around 5pm. Despite not online booking, and the restaurant having reduced capacity due to the virus, happy to squeeze us in. Quick, friendly service, drinks arrived really quickly, and food shortly afterwards. Quality was good - food tasty, hot and well presented. Portions seemed generous. We really enjoyed the four main courses we ordered, ribs, meatballs, prawn pasta and chicken carbonara Would visit again.

Good customer service and good pizzas
