"Dough is a pizzeria/restaurant run by Italians in the center of Bath. With many options for celiac, vegetarians and vegans, nobody will be disappointed; you can even choose the type of dough! They have white flour, whole wheat flour, corn flour… and the list goes on! During weekend it can get pretty busy, but even without a booking, they can find you a table in 10 minutes. The stuffed eggplant with tomato sauce was simply delicious, the sauce reminded me of the summers I spent with my brother at my grandma’s house, when after the beach, she was always making a simple pasta al sugo for lunch, with her tomato sauce that no one could ever match! If you are going to Dough you must try their pizza, period. The pizza parcel is filled with grilled zucchini, aubergines and vegetable cheese. The pizza dough is stone baked and crunchy at the ends and the melted cheese is to die for. Also, the prices are affordable and if you have a reusable bottle, they will refill it for you. Let’s hope they will open in London soon!"

"I came here on a midweek evening with a friend. It wasn 't particularly busy 3 tables max were occupied. Food I had the special a meat and pasta dish which was unfortunately swimming in its own grease, but it was passable. A late middle aged man was serving, who was helpful and friendly, but was obviously rushed off his feet he may even have been doing the cooking and serving at the same time. A late middle aged woman, who turned out to be the owner, was sat outside with her dog and a friend. Towards the end of our meal, she moved inside. She later turned her hand to waitressing, but this was evidently not her forte. When we 'd finished, our polite request to split the bill seemed to create a massive drama for her, I 'VE PUT IT [THE SUM] INTO THE [CARD] MACHINE NOW , she snapped. After her meltdown, she handed the job to her (presumably) employee, to whom she spoke like he was a dog. I really felt for him. She proceeded to slag us off to her friend, even though we were sat only about 3 metres away from them, in the same (quiet) room. Either she is a bitter individual, or was just having a bad day and took it out on us. Regardless, she had a mare and I would not recommend the place. No problem with the no doubt long suffering guy though."

"I've been coming to Bistro Laz and Al Parco (they share a building and also a kitchen, I believe) for as long as I can remember. Its been a family favourite restaurant for again, as long as I can remember. Every birthday, Special occasion meal, etc. We had here. I went back recently with a friend and I've got to say I was a bit embarrassed I sung their praises to him, and I think on this occasion the restaurant fell short. The food was as amazing as always, and the wait staff were very nice, friendly, and helpful. BUT, they had none of the mid level or cheaper wines in stock, and we had to buy a £70 or 80£ bottle, the bottle which admittedly was a very nice bottle was originally more and they did discount it though which was nice, but overall still annoying as we didn't expect to spend more than £30 or 40 on wine. But more annoyingly the food didn't arrive for a very, very long time. So much so that it seemed like they forgot about us. Admittedly, the restaurant was very busy when we were there, but the service speed was still, in my opinion too slow. Otherwise, Bistro Laz was great as ever. Like I said, the food was brilliant, and reasonably priced. The lamb cutlets with mash, and the large prawn starters are superb. Or if you want a great pizza order from the Al Parco menu. I'll give them 4 stars just because I love them and the food so much but they need to keep their wine in stock and either work on service speed, or keep diners informed so its clear they're not forgotten."

"Sergio’s is a fantastic experience all the way around, it starts first with the people. Friendly and personable. Dottie, Kasha, Hamza were attentive and engaging. We cannot say enough good things about them. We began our evening with a glass of Prosecco, accompanied with a mixed variety of olives w/ bright sliced citrus enhancing the flavors, which was perfect to snack. Along with the seafood salad: perfectly tender octopus, squid, mussels and clams. For our main course we enjoyed the evening special: king prawns w/spicy linguine. The prawns were split, and were nearly as large as your hand. The Veal Limone, a mainstay on the menu was tender and accompanied with shaved Parmesan and crisp arugula greens. We closed out the evening with an espresso and limoncello while sharing a delightful chat with Dottie. Her personality radiated, she was so welcoming and engaging which truly made you feel like family. Highly recommend you make Sergios part of your London journey, if you’re looking for authentic Italian with a neighborhood vibe, you’ve truly found the right place!"

"I have a gluten intolerance and needed to use the QR code to access the menu there was no service on my phone or on anyone else’s phone on the table. My son asked for the WiFi code which didn’t work one of the waiters rudely said to him use your own Data. Still I can’t access the menu another waiter was v nice gave me his phone to use but now all I was faced with was a list of allergens where it seems almost everything on the menu contains gluten. No indication of what was available to me until I had to ask another waiter what I could actually eat… It was unnecessarily complicated. A simple GF menu with what I could eat ie you had GF pasta Pizza bases… just a thought as you were so busy I kept on having to ask, the QR code is rubbish if customers have trouble with the WiFi in your restaurant. Everyone enjoyed their food the desert happy birthday song for my son’s birthday was nice."

"Unfortunately for these guys the appalling service let it down. We had a booking at 2pm and couldn’t get to the table until 2:20 because people were already on it. Our first waitress disappeared after the start of taking our orders and never came back, then a second waitress eventually took over to sort the orders. The food was heavily delayed coming to the table. Bearing in mind our table was booked for 2pm we didn’t get food until 4:20 At no point did any staff come to us to offer an explanation about what was happening, only after we enquired a waitress came to tell us that the kitchen was heavily delayed because it was busy. It wasn’t handled well and we did not receive any small snack dishes just to keep us going. We had a small child who was hungry and cranky at this point so they gave us his as it was ready. The rest of the meals came out 20mins later and you could tell some of them had sat on a hot plate for ages because of the dried gravy around the edges. Apart from this the food was lovely. It’s a massive shame that the terrible service and appalling organisation between the kitchen and service staff ruined this day out for us all. Would not recommended after this experience. Also just to add we were given a free drink each for the trouble. Not really much considering how terrible the service was"

"We had the pleasure of dining at this remarkable restaurant yesterday, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the stage for a truly delightful evening. The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the Beef Bourguignon. It was a masterpiece of flavors tender, rich, and perfectly seasoned, every bite was a testament to the chef’s skill and the quality of the ingredients used. Paired with a beautifully chosen wine, it was simply divine! What made our dinner even more special was the exceptional service we received from Massimiliano. His professionalism and genuine passion for hospitality shone through every interaction. He made us feel like honored guests, offering insightful recommendations and ensuring every aspect of our dining experience was flawless. Massimiliano's attention to detail and warm demeanor elevated our evening to new heights. I can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough! With exquisite food, top notch staff made by professional and always smiling people, and a team manager like Massimiliano, who bring an extra touch of magic to every meal, it truly is a hidden gem. We left with our hearts full and our taste buds dancing. Thank you for an extraordinary dining experience – we can’t wait to return!"

"Had a great breakfast here . Recommended by me. I had the avocado with poached eggs . The eggs were perfectly cooked and definitely tasty, probably local too. Nice strong cup of tea to start the day . Staff, both male and female, were lovely . Definitely a top 4 stars from me. And only a minute from the bustle of town where everything is overpriced and not as tasty."

"I recently dined at this restaurant during the summer and, as usual, had a great time. I would recommend it for a meal with friends as it offers a unique experience. However, it seems that there may have been a change in ownership. While the waitresses were lovely and very accommodating, the food was disappointing. The lasagne had to be sent back because it was cold and the garlic bread lacked flavor. The only positive aspect of the meal was the hardworking waitstaff who clearly deserve recognition for their efforts."

"The food was of excellent quality and very authentic. However, the service was subpar, as the waiting staff were not particularly attentive. For instance, one of my guests follows a gluten-free diet and informed the waitress of her allergy. She ordered the chicken liver, but it was served with gravy. When she asked if there was flour in the gravy, the more senior waiter confirmed that there was. My guest then began discussing with another guest, who had ordered a rib-eye steak, the possibility of swapping dishes. The waiter overheard their conversation and must have recognised the awkwardness of the situation, yet did not offer to rectify it. Discreetly, I approached the waiter and asked if the chicken liver could be served without the gravy, but he insisted that the dish would not taste right without it. I explained that my guest really wished to have the chicken liver without the gravy and offered to pay for a replacement if necessary. As the waiter agreed my guest returned the dish (untouched), yet I was still charged for both meals. Despite this, we left satisfied, as the staff were generally friendly and I did offer to pay for the replacement! However, in most restaurants, the dish would have been replaced, especially given that my guest had specified her inability to eat gluten. The price was reasonable for eight guests, even though I paid for ten mains, along with some starters and desserts."

"Left waiting for far too long to be brought to our table. Took a long time for anyone to serve us. The food was uninspiring and rubbery and the staff seemed unenthusiastic. We were also told they didn 't have a couple of things on the menu. The waitress didn 't even come back to tell me if the thing I ordered was available or not as she was unsure while I was ordering it. I got an if this isn 't available what else what you like . It 's kind of basic hospitality to know what is available on the menu or not and also to come back and confirm this so I know what I 'm actually getting. Seems basic to me. Then the icing on the cake was the waiter had a full blown argument with another customer in the middle of the restaurant. Very unprofessional and from what I overheard of the conversation they were completely justified in complaining. I 'm mystified as to why this place has 4 stars as our experience was not very good."

"It was a quiet Monday night as we rolled up to Al Dente on Easter Road, a tiny Italian restaurant that sits unassumingly half-way down Easter Road. You’re instantly drawn to the Ospitalia Italiana gold award proudly stamped into its façade; in my experience, these less glamourous eateries always turn out to be a winner. There’s an open kitchen, and chef/owner Graziano is gabbing away in his native tongue to a friend. On entering, he is swiftly out to greet us, alongside our waitress for the evening. The Italian excitedly takes us through today’s specials and retreats back behind the stove. My starter tonight is warm-baked Apulian potato tart with cured meat and mozzarella £5.30), with Sarah going for ‘Sautee de pesce’ priced at £6.80. The dining room is immediately awash with the wonderful aromas of garlic and white wine, and with one large breath drawn in, Sarah boldly states “Mmmm, it doesn’t get better than that”. She might be right. Her dish comes out first and I was glad to see just a simple plate of mussels, calamari, prawns, clams, and a decent chunk of good bread to soak us those juices. The last time we ordered this in a restaurant the shellfish were full of grit; thankfully, this chef has given his produce the respect it deserves, and that respect extends to the cooking of it – simple, but effective, the way it should be. My dish was equally as good: quality ham, gooey cheese, crunchy top and potatoes with a slight bite to them – a dish most suited to this cold winter evening. Another couple of Italian gentlemen entered the restaurant and the banter between chef and customer flowed. It’s a definite indicator of authenticity when fellow countrymen dine in such restaurants, and a far cry from the more generic offerings that lie over on Leith Walk. I opted for one of the specials in the form of pork loin with gorgonzola, honey, and roasted vegetables £14.80). This plate is never going to win any awards for presentation, but its rusticity wasn’t without"

"Me and my friend went for dinner last Monday,the waiter was so far not interested to do his job,or he might not know how to do it,He just damp my cuttleries on the table when there was a table napkin for this purpose.We both had prawns as a main and garlic bread which was amazing, and cannolo so called siciliano(but only the shape would remind you of that) which was soggy an tasteless,and trust me I know what I'm saying about cannolo being sicilian.Later my husband join us and he ordered spaghetti carbonara which was made with bacon,no black pepper....and again his cuttleries was damped on the table without even being wiped after we had dinner and was some sauces .When we asked for the bill they told me they can't give me a printed bill,just an old fashioned hand written bill on 2024.I gave the 3 stars o ly for the amazing prawns and garlic bread taste,nothing else."

"The restaurant has a concise menu, but their pasta and pizza dishes are delicious. They also offer a variety of large desserts, along with good coffee and tea. Their selection of wines and cold beer is decent. The lunchtime special is a great deal. The service is friendly and attentive. I enjoy visiting with my family once a week. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with no pretentious vibes. The restaurant is clean and the staff are friendly."

"We were really looking forward to this reservation as we have heard about Rosa Madre for a long time. Little details like the cutlery, wine glasses and plates as second to none. The hostess was friendly and welcoming. The decor was nice and cosy but i think for a table of 2 you're kind of shoved down the side where it was very busy as the kitchen was at the other end. Now for the food... Prawn starter was tasty, plenty of prawns, maybe a bit too much going on with the sauces had like 3 maybe 4 different varieties of tastes. The burrata was one of the nicest we have ever eaten The mains we got Cavatelli with Sausages Ragu and a fillet steak. We got a bottle of Primitivo which was delicious and complimented the food really well. We didnt get desert but the knew it was my wives birthday so they brought us out a tiramisu and it was SO light and tasty im not a desert fan or coffee but i have to say it was really really nice. Thank you Rosa Madre"

"Avoid at all costs, and it cost a lot!. I went to Las Iguanas last night for the first time and I have to say, I was NOT impressed. We were seated fairly quickly, but that is where the praise for Las Iguanas ends Service was extremely slow and somewhat incompetent... We only had two courses each but ended up waiting for so long that we were actually in the restaurant for 3 and a half hours!! When the food finally arrived, it was brought out at different times (some of us had finished before others had even got theirs) and it was cold. Portions were also far too small given the high prices, especially the desserts. For what we paid I'd expect far better quality, bigger portions and...read more"
