The best restaurants serving Italian food in Cathays Cardiff South Wales

We had a lovely dinner at Khione. Their Italian version of hamburger is amazing and so rich that my husband and I couldn't finish it, even though it was delicious. We also tried their Sicilian canolo and afogatto and honestly we were delighted. But the most important wand something we really appreciated was the warmth and kindness of the staff offering tasters of their delicious "pinsa", along with a nice chat.

Gorgeous food, great cocktails, friendly staff and lovely atmosphere! Loads of vegan options too. Can't recommend enough!

Amazing food and service as always

Food was delicious, I had a strawberry and chocolate crepe with additional banana - lush! The food arrived to the table in a timely manner, not a whole lot of atmosphere there as it was quiet but that could have been the late time of day we visited.

the most kind service and food was amazing. lovely interior and good vibes. can’t say enough good things. gf options also!

Love coming here. Food fab staff always lovely. Janetta is amazing so helpful and friendly

Highly recommend for Italian food lover. Extremely attentive and generouse with cheese. The flavor is amazing just the right amount of salty, sourness, sweetness & chessy. We ordered 1 risotto seafood and spaghetti for Lunch

My friend and I were looking for somewhere to have lunch. We saw the pizza and soft drink offer and wanted to try it. A nice waitress sat us, another took our order while ensuring we had a good time. The only slightly upsetting thing was the "Romana" option. It cost a bit more for the crispy thin, and it was mostly just soggy in the middle. Otherwise, it was all very tasty. Decided to stay for dessert which was a nice ending.

The fact that I left the restaurant and went to another one even though I paid over £40 reflects how unsatisfied I was. Never coming back

Bit of a barn being based in an old bank building , but the food, staff, and service are excellent. I particularly like their rustic pizzas and cannot eat a whole one so I generally cut it in half and take it home. Somewhat of an American tradition I found in the past year. I reckon for a fast food type place it's really jolly good. Better than most pizza places in Cardiff. Permanently closed. Being replaced by one of six by Nico.

The restaurant was cramped with waiting staff pushing against my chair throughout my meal. The service staff were nonchalant and quite disappointing as despite the fact we spent over £100 on our meal, we had no acknowledgement either entering or leaving the restaurant which was so disappointing. Cardiff is rife with very good restaurants so Giovanni needs to up his game and improve the offering and pay more attention to the patrons rather than expecting that his history of servicing celebrities will be enough to command such high prices for such mediocre service. We won’t be returning which is sad as we always enjoyed our time with this restaurant!

Ordered food from here confirmed the order and it never arrived with the app saying the food had been delivered
