"We had a short break in Cardiff for the first time and rather than go to the usual chain restaurants in the city centre we decided to try a local one instead. We looked on a well known website that advises on trips ; decided on this one and made a reservation. This proved to be a great decision as we had a really nice meal. We walked there from the centre, which took about 40 minutes and although we'd worked up an appetite after travelling to Cardiff that day, perhaps a taxi would have been a better option. On arrival, the service was prompt and efficient and the resaurant itself is quite modern. Situated on a long street that is full of numerous restaurants, cafes and takeaways covering all types of cuisine you could think of, Svago's grey and wooden facade with green neon sign stands out from it's neighbours. Rather than go for different choices, I ordered some favourite options to be able to get a true reflection of how Svago compared with my preferred Italian eateries and it did a good job. The meatballs followed by the chicken and chorizo risotto were rich in flavour and stood up well to the best I've had elsewhere. At the end of the evening, the bill for the two of us was reasonable and it lived up to the favourable reviews."
