The best restaurants serving Italian food in Wakefield Yorkshire and The Humber

Fed quality mixed... pizza had raw mushroom. Very bland chicken risotto with 3 bits of asparagus. Steaks all good as was tomato based pasta dishes. No veg with risotto... not worth the money. Staff and service good. Disappointed as last family evening there was good.

The lovely, friendly staff were very helpful assisting a member of our party with allergies, and all the dishes we had were really nice. Highly recommended.

After 5 weeks away from being able to visit the bar, following my major surgery, it was so nice to visit again on Monday 26th February, enjoying a few beers and two large pizzas with my partner. A great atmosphere. It was nice to be back. Neil.

Nice place, busy atmosphere. Staff could do with a day trip to learn how to pour a Guinness properly.

Poker night tonight with the boys and tried these guys for the first time. Wow! All 8 people very happy (for a change cos there's always that 1 moaning twat). Will definitely be ordering again 👏👏

Very poor quality food. Pasta well overdone and a soapy mess of a sauce. No time to say what was wrong as server brought food over then 10 seconds leather walked past asking if everything was alright. They then vanish for whole meal to turn up and take plates saying “please leave a good review it keeps my manager off my back”. Shame as not ally enjoy Bella but after this I won’t be returning. Freinds food was duck pasta with two bits of duck and mushy pasta.

Friendly staff, ordered a few meals others were nice but ordered the 8oz fillet steak and a good decent chunk of it was inedible, steak knife wouldn't cut through it, asked for a sharper knife, they said was a steak knife amd didn't have any sharper, the chips had black chunks in them too, they did offer another but as we were the first to go in we did unfortunately recieve ours very last after everyone else onece the resturant was full. So as we waited a while we didn't want to wait anymore, didn't bother ordering deserts for any of us won't be returning I've had better green king rump steak. Unfortunately didnt take a picture of the steak before but for what was lost on the steak to what we recieved it was a fair size that was inedible 16/07/2024

2nd visit for lunch. 1st visit I had the butter chicken baked potato. This time I tried a sandwich. Hard to choose but went for the ham hock cheese and pickle. Bread super soft, ham good qualify and plenty of filling. Came with fries which were very hot and crispy. Quick and friendly service. Will definitely be going back to try something else. Can't rate this place high enough.

Exceptional restaurant! I had one of the best steaks I have EVER had. Very attentive and friendly staff and amazing food. You get what you pay for! Lovely atmosphere.

Not surprised this restaurant has closed. They describe their cuisine as fine dining but they obviously do not understand what fine dining is. Slow service, dreadful pizza with undercooked dough (how come they can't produce a good pizza in an Italian restaurant?), tough chicken, lukewarm vegetables. Poor choice for vegetarians.

We were a party of 8 celebrating an Engagement & 30th Birthday and were welcomed by friendly helpful staff. The drinks were reasonable, the food was good and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We had a lovely evening and will definitely go back again.

We phoned to see what time La Gondola was closing at and were told in 2 hours. We arrived 20 minutes later to be told, they were tired of cooking for the day, so were closing up. Never again will I step foot in there. Rude woman.

Ordered two mains which were very bland so very disappointing. The meat was tough and the sauce in both dishes runny and thin. Chips and rice were ok which tbh should be difficult to ruin. Do they have a different chef ?? Not up to their usual high standard unfortunately and ended up throwing most of it away. Strike 1

Mixed kebab was ordered Dry chicken tikka Tasteless donner meat Rubber nann Hardly any salad But it was hot and delivered quickly by a lovely young lad Very dissapointed
