"I used to love this place and ordered frequently when it was still named Mario 's Plaice . I loved the freshness and quality of the food. I assumed after the renovation and renaming to Simeone 's we would get equal or better quality. However, after going to simeones not long after it opened I was left disappointed with the meal killer of having bones in the fish. For a fish and chip shop this is the one thing that puts me and no doubt most others off, no one wants to be picking out fish bones from their mouth having a fish supper. I thought hopefully this was an off day and maybe the quality wasn 't there yet due to having just reopened so now a few months later I returned and sadly I had the same experience again. First I was enjoying the fish with nice the nice batter and great chips only to then catch more bones in my mouth. Even after attempting to continue eating the fish the bones continued. Having this experience even once can put you off a chippy but twice, I 'm not sure I 'll go back and will instead stick to the alternatives."

"My sister and brother-in-law's friends from Cornwall, who live in Filey, arranged for a group of eight of us to dine at San Marco. We received a warm welcome from who I assume was the owner and were seated at a window table. The music was excessively loud, making it difficult to have a conversation. My husband and I were seated next to a speaker, so it was particularly bothersome for us. The food we ordered was decent overall, though my seafood calzone had a slightly soggy base, but was nonetheless tasty. My sister-in-law was not impressed with the garlic mushrooms she ordered as a starter. After trying one, I was relieved I had not chosen them myself as they were not very good. If we were to visit Filey again, we would likely seek out a different dining option."

"Been coming to Naopli in Glossop from over in Stalybridge for about 5 or 6 years now (minor intermission for covid lockdown aside). We first happened across the place when having spent a day at the coast, we didn't fancy cooking and my wife did a search on the Internet and booked us in here. We've probably eaten here 20 times over the last 5 or 6 years and always thoroughly enjoy it. Napoli is a little hidden away downstairs off Norfolk Sq. There is always a good atmosphere and we always leave happy (and full). Food is excellent, usually a couple of additional starter main course choices on the specials board and an excellent range for carnivores, pescaterians and vegans alike. Most recent visit was for an Xmas eve meal with family, and as ever, the steak, lobster ravioli, chicken risotto were excellent as were the starters and desserts (the home made Tiramisu is a particular favourite) Good job we parked downhill from the restaurant as walking uphill could have been a struggle after everything we ate. Value is very good indeed given the excellent quality. The restaurant is fairly compact but comfortable nonetheless. The kitchen is an open kitchen and the work rate of the kitchen team (which often includes the owner) is unbelievable. Staff are always friendly, helpful and efficient. One of our firm favourites to which we will continue to return."

"It’s my sons 9th birthday today and I decided to take him to try the best pizza in the area. Called up and spoke to the owner who managed to book us a table last minute for 7pm. We ordered a couple of lemonades and 1X 12 inch meat pizza between me and my son which had sausage, chicken, ham and cheese. The pizza was so fresh, delicious and very lite that we ordered a second one and after that we were stuffed. I supplied a chocolate cake and the owner/chef brought the cake out with candles and sung happy birthday to my son. It was a beautiful moment and was so nice of him to do that. This is the best pizza place I’ve been to plus the friendly staff etc made us feel very welcome. Thank you very much for everything I will be bringing my son and mum back here very soon. I think it’s going to be my son and I new place to go. Don’t hesitate to call to book table now you will wish you booked sooner!!!!"

"we like this restaurant so much that we had our high-time recipe here 14 years ago! in this time the quality of food and service remains high. he says it's probably the best steak he ever had and it was a very big one. I tried other places for my pizza, but they never measure. Also....I usually never have a pudding, but here they are so good I can't resist. thank you tarantella!"

"We three gluttoneers invaded this delightful eatery to celebrate my wife 's, Angela 's birthday last Tuesday night, and it was better than great. We were welcomed into an inviting ambience of romantic lighting, light tiles and coloured walls, and shown to our favourite window table. Amidst the polite murmer of chat and laughter from diners already there, and the lovely background music, accompanied with a perfectly concocted Aperol Spritz and a Pornstar Martini, we made our selection from a varied menu, especially when you include their specials ' board. James, the proprietor extraodinaire, and the others made us feel right at home with the banter and laughter great. We soon made our selection. All three of us went for the Mango al Granchio; Nino 's do the best this side of Essex. There followed Involini Pescatrice, Saltimbocca Romana. and Linguini Gamberoni; all were faultlessly prepared and presented, and the flavour was astounding. This culinary perfection was baptised with a chilled Prosecco, and it truly woke your palate up. We then concluded this gastronomic extravaganza with a shared Apple Pie and ice cream with a surprise candle and team Nino 's singing 'Happy Birthday ' with their quirky horn wonderful. We finished off with a lemon tea, black Americano, Cappuccino, and black Sambucas plus complimentary ones from our gracious hosts grazie mille! Yet again, Nino 's have raised the benchmark in cuisine excellence, friendship, and laughter. Our compliments to the chefs in the 'hot room ' for their artistry and kind attention, and a huge 'thank you ' to all at Nino 's for an uplifting dining and birthday experience. Until the next time, keep smiling and be happy, ciao."

"More options added since my last visit to the area, including sausage with or without batter, tofu kebab and cheeseburger. The man I spoke to said all the vegan options were cooked separately. We tried the banana blossom fish and chips tofu kebabs. Both really nice, especially the chips, and very large portions."

"Titillate your taste buds. The freshest of breads. With amazing olive oil. And a Mediterranean salad to start with. Great olives on the side. For mains the chef made a special ravioli dish for us. It wasn't on the menu. No effort too much. We...were touched at this display of proper restaurantness. The tiramisu for our dessert was to absolutely die for. I really also wanted the special limoncello sorbet but whilst the spirit was willing the body was sensibly saying another day. A big shout out to Marcus and Christine. They understand what hospitality is all about. And the complimentary limoncello shots before we left were awesome with lovely chocolates."

"from a full vegan menu we were just told a few dinge not gluten-free. we had two garlic bread pizzas, two main thing to share a big salad, one juice and paid £36! the personal was not unhappy to provide vegan and gluten-free people like some places. eating was really good. even the avocado in salat was creamy soft."
"An earlier conversation with the owner left me with eager anticipation of an evening with friends at Francesco 's last Saturday. My wife and I arrived to find an a homely restaurant setting with lively Italian music booming out. We were all set for a fun evening...Our friends arrived who we had not seen for a long time and stood to greet them. Instead we were instantly approached by the surly owner gruffly telling us all to sit down and order our food as they were busy that evening. We meekly complied, taken aback by this strange attitude and, quite frankly, rudeness on the part of 'mine host '.It got worse, the owner stripped off to a singlet vest top and roamed about the restaurant bellowing orders to his small staff who clearly were in fear of him. We asked a poor lady waitress if the music could be turned down a tad so that we could hear ourselves speak. She rolled her eyes and declined to approach the boss....In an earlier conversation prior to booking, the owner had assured me that all the food used in the restaurant was fresh. Absolute rubbish! We chose squid or antipasta to start and as far as the squid was concerned were presented with something that did not look like squid. It may have been squid it was difficult to tell but it was very ordinary and looked reminiscent of something from the freezer chest in Aldi. The antipasta was topped with nothing less than a bit of tinned salmon!This was followed by our mains. I was looking forward to my spaghetti marinara. What I received was a pile of steaming hot spaghetti, very al dente, on which a tomato flavoured pasta sauce had been slopped. If one looked carefully one could find the odd small prawn, an occasional small mussel or a squid ring. All very reminiscent of what one would find in a bag of frozen seafood. So much for fresh!The food was left on the plates largely uneaten. The surprising thing was that the staff were not surprised we had left it and did not query whether there was a problem! The bill £115.00 paid very reluctantly but we just wanted to leave it was all so appalling.A disappointing and embarrassing evening. The atmosphere in the restaurant was tense and unpleasant, the food, such as it was, decidedly below expectation.Our first visit to Francesco 's. Very poor experience; we will not be coming again, not only because of the food but the owner 's unpleasant manner and rudeness!"
"I often dine at Caffe Gondola and sometimes choose a starter from their wonderful Specials Menu instead of a main course, depending on how hungry I am. On my last visit, I decided to try the scallops with chili and garlic served on a bed of spinach, and I must say it was absolutely delicious. The flavors were perfectly balanced and I particularly liked how the Chef cut the scallops into small pieces, making them tender and flavorful. The food at this restaurant is always top-notch, the staff is friendly and accommodating, and it's always nice to see familiar faces among the regular customers."

"I absolutely love Italian cuisine, but it's often challenging to find authentic Italian restaurants. To my delightful surprise, this restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. The food is genuinely authentic Italian, complemented by excellent service. They also cater to children, offering smaller portions of pasta, pizza, and other meal adjustments. Everything was delicious! The only downside for us is that it's not local, but if you get the chance, make sure to add this place to your list of must-visit restaurants."

"My granddaughter and I had tickets for the matinee and evening performances at the Mayflower Theatre, and need to eat between shows, we discovered a distinct lack of eating places in the near vicinity, so opted for this one as being more or less the closest. I have to say we were greeted very cordially, and shown to our table. It was explained that we could help ourselves to the hot and cold buffet as many times as we liked, and that pizzas and meats would be brought to our table. My granddaughter pointed out that it seemed quite expensive, but as I said there was little other choice. I was ok with the salads on offer, but my granddaughter had a spaghetti dish which wasn't hot (and should have been). Eventually someone did appear with some pizza, which was 2 slices of garlic bread, one slice of ham/pineapple pizza and one slice of cheese pizza, and that was that, so we settled for a slice of pizza each. after a while I did manage to attract a waiter's attention, and was able to have another slice of pizza, but we saw absolutely nothing of any other meats etc. And also it was just so noisy, I don't mind background music, but the music here was so loud you could hardly hear yourself speak. For £14.99 each, and for what we had, this is a real scam, and we would certainly not go back if in Southampton again. I would possible look to book the restaurant at the Mayflower, which was, unfortunately, fully booked this time."

"I absolutely loved this restaurant! It offers authentic Italian cuisine and a wonderful atmosphere. The food was amazing—we enjoyed a charcuterie board, pasta, and fish! The owner was incredibly friendly as well. There are plenty of options available for those with gluten allergies, making it a great choice for celiacs. Service was excellent, and we dined in for dinner. The price per person was around £20–30. Highly recommend!"

"We discovered this lovable restauraunt while walking the South Downs way. We enjoyed the food and the atmosphere so much that we have since been back several times despite it taking us over an hour to get there from Southampton! We see it as an adventure for special occasions. Tonight we took our sister and her husband for the first time and we were not disappointed. We enjoyed starters of white bait, baked mozarella and garlic bread. For our mains we stuck with the classics; carbonara, lasagna and mushroom risotto. And for dessert we all enjoyed the chocolate soufflé on the specials board! My husband enjoyed the draft beer on tap while our brother enjoyed a merlot with his meal. Everyone enjoyed a limonchello after except me as I am a tee total and designated driver! We love the owner who is a friendly chap from Rome, he always makes us feel welcome and takes good care of us. We drove home full of good comfort food and in high spirits! A beautiful night out! Would highly reccomend. Parking: Free street parking after 6pm Mon-Fri, free on weekends."

"Was quite disappointed by this place.Never been here before,was walking by while on holiday and had a quick glance at the menu and the Calzone pizza caught dad's eye as it said it was the"Chefs speciality"then I noticed lots of Veal choices so thought we'd give it a go.The restaurant itself was rustic and charming and service was good.Then the food came came out.Dads Calzone was OK,but not memorable then my Veal came out,it was advertised as a milanese(I thought that came with pasta)Out came 3 of the smallest pieces of Veal,although well cooked,with a side salad and potato wedges and at £27,was hoping for a little bit more for my money.Dont get me wrong everything was tasty BUT overpriced."

"On arrival we were warmly welcomed with a huge smile. A lovely lady who single handedly commandeered the restaurants busy front of house. Her effortless charismatic control over the entire establishment oozed experience and was impressive to say the least. Her ability to acknowledge and strengthen relationships with regulars as well as build rapport with newcomers created a relaxed atmosphere that immediately put us at ease. I knew from being surrounded by people having a good time that we were in good hands. We ordered the Calamari Fritti (to share A true test! As all Calamari lovers know, this is a dish that annoyingly varies significantly from restaurant to restaurant and can often result in a small portion of expensive greasy let down. The Calamari Fritti at La Dolce Vita did not disappoint! It was generous in portion size, had great taste and texture (not rubbery The batter was wonderfully light and not greasy, and quite frankly it was delicious! The only thing that could’ve made it better is to have eaten it by the sea on a hot summers day, but that’s not their fault, I definitely booked a table at 8pm in October! I personally would’ve preferred an aioli or tartare sauce rather than the sweet chilli sauce it came with but that’s my preferential taste and I’m sure if I would’ve asked, they would’ve accommodated my request as they serve tartare sauce with their Whitebait. Ok, so despite being advised on multiple occasions to try their steak we thought we’d do pizza’s this time and conquer pastas next time (Nothing to do with a current promotion or anything lol! I had the Diavlo, an Italian equivalent to perhaps the more commonly known ‘American Hot’ that you may find at a takeaway dedicated franchise. The pizza was a good size and more than enough for 1 person (I’d say the size of a dinner plate it had a thin, crispy base and a wonderfully raised crunchy crust. Although this particular choice of pizza only has a few toppings, they were generously spread and of a very high quality. The meat was similar to a rich spicy smoked Calabrian pork sausage or Chorizo/Nduja and the onions and chillis were crunchy and fresh. The additional chilli oil placed on the table was a nice touch and I’d welcome the option of a garlic oil or garlic dip for the crusts. I also tried my wifes vegetarian Calzone which was like a big hug on a plate, a generously filled Italian pastry pillow. Definitely a cosy winter warmer and a great veggie option. We opted for the New Zealand Marlborough, a Sauvignon blanc which was clean, crisp and fresh, with hints of passionfruit, lychee, and gooseberry. The high acidity was perfect for cutting through the richness of the pizza cheese and the Calamari batter. The wine glasses were clean and the wine was served nice and cold. We were too full for dessert however the options looked enticing (almost as enticing as the Limoncello the table opposite were having! We also appreciated the classics such as ‘Tiramisu’ being on the dessert menu. Why on earth did we wait 2 years to try La Dolce Vita?! From it’s buzzing atmosphere overshadowing it’s humble decor to it’s wonderful food and friendly staff. La Dolce Vita is a restaurant run with passion and skill, celebrating the beauty of classic Italian simplicity delivered through high quality ingredients, traditional methods and efficient service. it’s safe to say we’ll be coming back. We’ve heard the steaks are amazing and we’re also tempted by the Linguine Marinara. The fact they’re always busy would imply that they are uncompromising in their standards which has resulted in a consistency that their customers have not only come to rely on but keep coming back for. Good food, good wine, good company, you can’t get any more Italian than that! Well-done guys, or should I say ‘Bravo!’ PS: I booked a table (as advised by leaving a voicemail on their landline. Their recorded message is clear and concise and there were no issues with my reservation. I do however feel a booking confirmation text would've been reassuring."

"This restaurant absolutely exceeded my expectations! I ordered takeout for dinner, and everything was spectacular. The food was a solid 5 out of 5. I highly recommend the scallops, which were cooked perfectly, and the Lamb Rogan Josh served with saffron rice and naan—each bite was a delight. The service was also top-notch, earning another 5-star rating; the staff was friendly and efficient. As for the atmosphere, even in takeout form, you could sense the inviting vibe of the restaurant. A fantastic dining experience overall!"
