The best restaurants serving Italian food in South West

Fantastic selection of hot food, prepared and cooked to order, great value for money. Drinks and desserts available, didnt try but looked delicious. Food was well presented and packaged for take away. Will definitely become our local for pizza, pasta and burgers. Staff friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.

We booked a table for 7 of us at 4pm on a Saturday afternoon. The waiter was polite and attentive. The drinks arrived promptly. The food was delicious but took a while to arrive. I suspect that the restaurant was short-staffed because as the meal went on, it became harder to get the attention of a waiter. It was also difficult to pay. We got the bill, but had to ask to actually pay it twice. We enjoyed ourselves, but with a toddler in our party could have done with food being served more promptly.

There are two ladies who work in here who are unfailingly polite, cheerful, unobtrusive and friendly. The reason for my adding of an extra star from my previous review is because of them. However, it seems that this branch of Costa attracts young male staff who are loud, use audible bad language and are over familiar (I object to being called ‘mate’). When I come to a Costa, I am expecting/hoping that I won’t be disturbed or distracted by very loud conversations, lots of ‘f’ words and inane ‘banter’.

The staff are always nice and gave me as many options as they could for work I recently had done. I didn’t feel like I was being steered toward more work than I needed like has happened elsewhere to me. I never have to wait long either. Glad I found this office.

No complaints, food was standard pizza express no issues at all. It was out relatively quick and the price was decent. Have no issues in returning

Our Waiter Tom provided an excellent service. Made a quick drop in experience an enjoyable memorable one.

Food was okay, service was very slow, but maybe the influx of pre and post theatre goers affected things. The lack of soft furnishings means it's quite noisy, like a canteen, and my hubby struggles to hear in those conditions.

Lovely venue, great food and fantastic server called Laura, who could not have been more upbeat and friendly!! She was brilliant.

Have just wasted £32 on an utterly tasteless breakfast. 35 mins for food to arrive, miserable staff. Dreadful experience.

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.

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

Went with some friends for an evening meal and was thoroughly disappointed. The food is basically pub grub - nothing wrong with that, but here they’re charging 3x what a pub would. £28 for a thin rib eye steak, that I asked to be cooked medium rare was presented well done. I sent it back and asked that the replacement be rare, but this too was mostly all well done with barely any pink meat. At this point I gave up and just ate it. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Bristol has lots of great restaurants, so go and check out some of those.

Very average taste for such high price. Not up to the expectations based on google reviews.

We visited on Sunday the 17th/Nov for dinner, from the beginning there wasn’t much of a warm welcome, no offer to take our wet coats etc or questions about our day/evening etc. We opted for 4 different pasta dishes, and no starters. There was a little bit of a wait but it was worth it as the food was amazing. Unfortunately the service couldn’t be further from amazing, the staff barely spoke, asked anything etc, hardly smiled, nor were they very friendly. It created a kind of hostile atmosphere to be honest, as it wasn’t particularly busy when we were there, and there was more staff than people eating. Unfortunately we wouldn’t visit again, the food was amazing, however with service this bad, it ruined the whole visit.

My wife is a chef manager and she thinks the food "seemed like ping food". I thought it was ok, but charging £19 for ravioli, I expect faultless. I tried to call and tell them that I had a Tastecard, but couldn't speak to a person. When we got there, having made an automated booking, I told the waitress that I had my Tastecard membership number on my phone. "No problem, we will sort it out as bogof". When the bill came however, apparently they don't recognise the membership number but the number from the app (why didn't they say that to start with?). The last thing one wants, is to argue over the payment of the bill and insist on speaking to the manager, to sort things out. I even had to argue with her.
