The best restaurants serving Italian food in South West

If I could get 0 I would. Ordered food (I use the term loosely) which came out before the drinks. Just my food, not my partners. We had to then ask for the drinks. And finally, their food came out sometime after. The food came out, absolutely dripping in fat. Presentation awful. Could only eat one mouthful. Very cheap ingredients used. Clearly, don’t know the difference between prosciutto ham and cheap 99p supermarket ham. Not sure what the restaurants like upstairs, but if you consider eating in the café downstairs, carry on walking.

Tasty ice cream and excellent size scoop 😋😋😋

Have been a regular customer at this restaurant over many years of recent the food quality has gone considerably We have visited the food delivered cold in particular lasagne cold in the middle not just on one occasion Due to the amount of times we were disappointed we gave the restaurant a wide berth for months To return very similar the pizzas we ordered yes were tasteless and one they got totally wrong Sorry to write a disappointing review as owners and on site manager nice people but gone down hill considerably on food which you come for and pay Another evening last night ruined My comment would be careful if booking G

Always great service and fantastic food. We have used La Vela many times over the years and have always received great service and fabulous food.

Great menu as well as lovely food. Good variety for vegetarians and vegans in particular. All the food is made from scratch which means that even if a particular item on the menu cannot be ordered as a vegetarian or vegan, it can always be made to be! That is why my daughter was actually able to taste her first vegan lasagne and she made sure to eat every bite.

A thoroughly enjoyable experience. A beautiful old building near the river. Our food was well cooked and well presented. Staff were great. A bit dark but that's normal in an old building.

Brilliant place. I went to this restaurant hoping for some good food and was not disappointed. As soon as we sat, we where offered a drink. Shortly afterwards we ordered food. We took the pollo de fungi and the vegetarian pizza. When I tell you that it was amazing I was not lying. The pasta was creamy and just perfectly cooked while the pizza was brilliant. The dough was nice and light while also fluffy. The staff were insanely polite and were great. The gelato was nice and creamy while also not to sweet but not to sour. Overall this was a outstanding place and I will definitely come to here again one day.

Excellent meal - Food and service were brilliant. First went to La Lupa in the late 1970's just after it opened. It has been variable at times over the years but the present owners are exceptional providing a warm welcome in clean and comfortable surroundings with excellent food.

Simply the best Italian restaurant in England, in over 40 years of dining never found another that's comes close

Make your own mind up! These were our dough balls!!! Burned? Didn’t open them until we were home so it was too late to return them….ask yourself if you’d actually serve these to your customers?

Lovely food and great service. We popped in for a Saturday lunch and the pizza and pasta was really tasty and the almond pudding was lovely.

Zeus was fantastic. We had a great time and with lovely food. Will definitely come again! The food was delicious and fairly priced

Good food and service, nice atmosphere. Parking was super convenient, making this a good place to come with a family. Menu is a bit too ordinary but it did please the kids.

Absolutely the most attentive service and the food was fabulous. Always will be a no.1 restaurant for family and friends.

Great place, very friendly staff, food was great. See you next year.
