The best restaurants serving Italian food in South West

The venue is underwhelming, it's underground and quite musty. The food can be really good, when they try.

Visited again for my husbands birthday and feel like its our regular place to for a nice meal out to celebrate. Food was amazing . Very happy with everything we ordered. Thank you..

10/10 service and 10/10 food. The smallest pizza size was still too big to eat in one portion and the alfredo I had was one of the best pasta dishes I've ever tried ❤️

There are a few tables outside 😊

Myself and my girlfriend made a spur of the moment first time visit this past Saturday night to this wonderful family run authentic Italian restaurant which has been on my list of places to try for far too long. It was a revelation from the minute we walked in the door due to the wonderful welcome and fantastic service and that's before we had even sampled the truly stunning food which was an incredibly appetising and colourful selection full of flavour and all freshly prepared including the starters which my girlfriend absolutely adored. This was absolutely top notch quality food including pizza that is absolutely incredible and all at very good value prices to match or in most cases better any other decent Italian restaurant I've ever visited. We cannot recommend that you visit this amazing restaurant strongly enough and we thank the staff there for the most wonderful meal and welcome we were given which absolutely made our evening and we look forward to returning as soon as we can.

The pizza was fantastic— However, the service was another story. Our pizza actually arrived before our drinks, and there was some confusion about our vegan order. It’s possible the staff members were new, but that just highlights the need for better training. Also, be prepared for the cold—this place could double as a walk-in freezer. If you're planning to visit, don’t leave your coat in the car—you’ll need it!

Worst carbonara I’ve ever had. I don’t usually order this because so many places don’t know how to cook it properly but I thought I’d be safe in an Italian restaurant with such good reviews, but my main really was like a bland cream soup with boiled spaghetti floating in it. And with very pale and huge strips of bacon that looked boiled and very unappetising. Basically everything a carbonara shouldn’t be. It’s so frustrating when an Italian restaurant doesn’t know how to cook a classic Italian dish. However, the starter and pudding were fine and the rest of our party enjoyed their meals so maybe I just choose the wrong thing (hence the 3 and not 2 stars).

Wow! The food was 'autentica' because it is freshly prepared to order, you are encouraged to tailor it to your own personal taste. The staff are knowledgeable about the menu, even the 'specials' board which changes. The staff are so friendly. Big shout out to 'Nina' who took our order and looked after us. It's great to experience an Italian restaurant with genuine Italian speaking staff. You feel Iike you are in Italy, historic map of Italy on the wall, another beautiful photo of Venice's Rialto bridge. It's the full authentic Italian experience. You can practice your Italian before your next Italian holiday. Will be a regular from now on. Thank you. Dino.

Absolutely brilliant experience. Everyone is so lovely and welcoming. The food itself was great, especially the asparagus as a starter. The sirloin steak was so delicious too, but the cherry on the cake was the dessert. Their tiramisu is marvellous 😀 You can taste fresh food. I would tottaly recommend La Camoagna to anyone and will surely return. Thank you to all the staff there as well, especially Amy the waitress. My God, she was so amazing and warm. Her customer service is the best.

Friendly welcoming staff! Quick service. Nice atmosphere. And excellent food. This was our first time at this restaurant and it didn’t disappoint.

Delicious and very generous portions, and a downright bargain. I’m not an enthusiastic carnivore but very much enjoyed the gently braised lamb (‘a cheap cut’, our friend pointed out) which was so tender you could’ve eaten it with a spoon. Would definitely return.

Not my first visit, and certainly not my last. The menu caters for vegetarians and vegans, the food is consistently brilliant and the service is excellent.

We wanted a quick brunch and ordered the Baked Eggs. We were told it would be a 20 minute wait to allow it to bake. Fair enough! However when the dish arrived the sauce was watery and thin with no depth of flavour. The haricot beans were like bullets and the eggs were underdone. It tasted like a rush job as if a tin of tomatoes had just had the beans and eggs added. Not a sauce on which any time had been spent. Very disappointing!

I've been here twice and found it superb both times. It is a genuine Italian cafe. You will be welcomed into the cosy space and fed cheap and delicious and plentiful food. This place really is a gem and I intend to visit every time I'm in Cheltenham.

We tried the restaurant for lunch and were not disappointed. The food was good and the staff was very nice and friendly. Great coffee and free limoncello.
