"Lovely looking cafe in Glasgow's West End. I had haddock with some coleslaw, my partner had burger and chips, and we both had a mug of tea each. My haddock initially had a strange taste and I soon realised it was the tartare sauce. It was horrible! I ate what I could of the rest but the tartare sauce left a nasty taste in my mouth. That said, I had a few chips from my girlfriend's plate and they were very nice. No grease at all, and in fairness the fish wasn't greasy either. My girlfriend didn't really enjoy her burger saying that the bun didn't taste great and the Gold Star tomato ketchup wasn't great either. The lady who served us though was so welcoming and friendly and a credit to this place. She was lovely and the tip we gave was for her. The cafe is basic but equally quite stylish with exposed brickwork lit up which I liked, and the prices were OK. Please, please, please though get rid of them tartare sauce sachets. I know Gold Star tomato ketchup is what chippies in Scotland use so I can't really suggest changing. I did like the coleslaw though. Food. 6/10 Service. 10/10"

Ricardo's Kitchen Cucina Rustica

Cafés • Pizza • European • Fast Food

"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!!!!"

Tarantella

➤ 29-31 St James St, Weston-super-Mare, United Kingdom

Pizza • Mexican • Italian • Vegetarian

"My girlfriend and I visited Tarantella for lunch today. We opted for the 2-course menu, starting with arancini filled with spinach and risotto, which were absolutely delicious. I ordered the carbonara for my main course, which was incredibly creamy and flavorful with well-cooked meat. My girlfriend, Ahri, chose the bolognaise, which she enjoyed although she found the pasta a bit hard. The brownie we had for dessert was so filling that we had to take it to go, and I found the chocolate flavor to be too dark for my liking. Despite that, it was a wonderful date with satisfying food, all for just under £30 for both of us."

Nino's

➤ 18 Electric Parade, E18 2LY, Redbridge, United Kingdom

Cafés • Pizza • Pasta • Seafood

"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."

Amici Portstewart

➤ Clubhouse The Old Course 25 Portmore Road, Portstewart I-BT55 7BE, United Kingdom, BT55 7DA

Pizza • Mexican • Asiatic • European

"We've been visiting Portstewart for many years, but this was our first time at Amici. We were pleased with the attentive service, along with the high-quality food and wine. It was a nice surprise to see our friend Martin there with his family celebrating his birthday. The portions were generous, and the food was quite rich—especially the salmon pasta with lemon sauce that I had. There were plenty of options on the menu, but unfortunately, we couldn't manage to squeeze in one of the beautifully presented desserts. As for dietary considerations, there was a small but thoughtfully curated vegan menu, and the waiter and chef were very helpful in providing dairy-free alternatives for us."

Lupa Italian Restaurant & Bar

➤ 123-124 High Street Southampton, Hampshire SO14 2AA, United Kingdom

"The food at this restaurant was exceptional, the service was excellent with friendly and attentive staff, and the prices were very reasonable. We had a wonderful evening and would highly recommend it."

Padrino Italian Pizzeria

"Four of us ate at padrinos all food was fine apart from my wife who had Crab linquinie but found shell in the food , the waitress was very uncaring and when my wife said could you please tell the chef of the problem , the waitress was quite abrupt and in a raised arrogant voice said I HAVE told him. She was attractive blonde Eastern European. Meal type: Dinner"

Giannis

➤ 13 Victoria Rd, Scarborough, England, YO11 1SB, United Kingdom

Pizza • Cheese • Italian • European

"This place has positive reviews, so I can only assume they struggle with the busier summer season and standards slip. Despite the places with lovely sea views offering vegan menus, we chose Gianni's, on a back street in town, due to the reviews. We tried to book ahead but the line was engaged (5 times), so we instead tried walking in for an early meal at 6pm. We were shown to a table and 3 menus were presented one showing specials, the other two a folder containing the main menu, a meat menu and the drinks menus. There was a line on the main menu stating that the vegan menu should be requested. The table next to us had new customers brought to it but despite being right next to us, we couldn't get the staff's attention to request the vegan menu. Eventually someone came over asking if we were ready to order and we were finally able to request the menu. One vegan menu was brought to us and we ordered cautiously, given that the table who came in after us already had their starter and it was huge. Depressingly, that menu stated that vegan wines were available, which is what I'd have preferred if we didn't have the beers we'd ordered in the apparent absence of vegan wines. We ordered the foccacia with olive oil and balsamic to share. Two plates were brought to us. They were dirty and greasy. We requested clean plates and the waiter brought two more plates that were also greasy. Clean plates were provided on the 3rd attempt. The olive oil and balsamic are presented in bottles. These are evidently not wiped between customers as both bottles were greasy. The foccacia arrived and was simply the worst I've had. It was dry and stodgy, perhaps made a couple of days before or perhaps even earlier and frozen. We left most of it. The pizza was huge but the toppings had amalgamated into an emulsion like slop, causing the thin base to taste like uncooked dough. The chips were fine, as was the basic side salad. We didn't order dessert after the meal we'd had. The staff are mainly very young people with no one directing them, so they spent most of the time standing in the doorways chatting. They knew to serve the food and clear the tables but they clearly have had little to no customer service training and were not checking the customers had what they needed and were happy. This place is inexpensive and the portions are large, but rather than authentic Italian food, we were left with a sense of quantity over quality."

Cafe Capriccio

➤ 97 Green Street, TW16 6RD, Spelthorne, United Kingdom

Pizza • Mexican • Seafood • Asiatic

"visited this beautiful restaurant today afternoon looking for some options online. it has a beautiful ambiente and a cozy feeling. the portions are generous and eating is quite delicious and rich. we ordered the suppe of the day and a garlic bread pizza as starter and were quite full to order a big pornstar. we ordered the royal costume with white wine and a garlic butter sauce that we felt was very exquisite. overall I would like to come back here with a much bigger appetit"

CaffÉ Gondola

➤ 168 High Street, Egham TW20 9HP, United Kingdom, Runnymede

Pizza • Pasta • Steak • Italian

"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."

Francesco's

➤ 53 High Street, HP23 5AG, Dacorum, United Kingdom

Pizza • Pasta • Steak • Italian

"Tried to visit Francesco Amorosa for another superb Italian meal, but found the restaurant closed. Oh no. We have been eating at Francisco's for a few years now and always have fantastic food served with passion and friendship. The end of an era. Wishing you both a long and happy retirement. Affectionately yours; Claudio (Ranieri), Sylvia Da Grandson. All the very best...."

The Pie Parlour Bakery

➤ 117A High Street West, High Peak, United Kingdom

Cakes • Juice • Italian • British

"We were informed that almost everything on the full vegan menu was gluten-free, except for a couple of items. We ordered two garlic bread pizzas, two main dishes, a large salad to share, a juice each, and the total bill came to £36. The staff were accommodating and did not seem bothered by catering to vegan and gluten-free diets, unlike some other places. The food was delicious, with the avocado in the salad being particularly creamy and soft."

La Pergola

➤ Southampton Road, Lyndhurst I-SO43 7BQ, United Kingdom

Pizza • Italian • European • Vegetarian

"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."

Pier One

➤ 35 Connaught Avenue, CO13 9PN, Tendring, United Kingdom

Fish • Vegan • British • Burgers

"Honestly can’t recommend enough our new favourite place. Food portions are absolutely huge, we couldn’t finish it but that’s absolutely not a moan starters (Ribs and Halloumi fries were so flavoursome and beautifully done. We then had the burger and the scampi (my partner doesn’t like fish but found the alternative variety so hard to choose from , the scampi was so fresh. Staff are beautifully friendly and attentive, our main waitress was polite, professional and warm, and what we believe may be the manager or owner was equally as warm, engaged in conversation and very approachable. Price was average, if anything extremely reasonable considering portion size and quality of the food. The biggest bonus of all is that they are dog friendly. When we went, including our cockapoo there were 6 dogs, all incredibly well behaved and so welcome. They have introduced a dog menu which is a beautiful touch and really went a long way for us (ITS FREE TOO! . Just a beautiful ethos and atmosphere, with delicious food. We couldn’t praise more highly. Thank you Pier One."

Tosca's Italiano

➤ Commercial Road, SO15 1GF, Southampton, United Kingdom

Pizza • Pasta • Lunch • Italian

"Whenever we visit the UK we always go to The Mayflower Theater. We always have dinner before hand and we always used to go to Tosca's as its food was amazing, the service was great, and its proximity to the theater. Since the revamp, however, the food has quality has diminished. The salads looked tired, the pastas were limited and the fries were cold. The staff were slow in offering the limited meats that were available and the pizza we were served was cold, (it tasted like a frozen supermarket pizza). We only ever returned because of Tony, the maitred, but as he was not there on our last visit I doubt we will go back."

Pavarottis

➤ 105 High St, Shanklin, United Kingdom, Esplanade, Shanklin

Kebab • Cafés • Pizza • Mexican

"I always wondered what the ambulances were for when they were driving through Shanklin, it's for people having a heart attack when receive the bill, noone mentions in reviews about the prices on menu are before vat, we didn't notice this on menu but were told by lovely couple sat next to us that this is the case but food good and Italian wine good, it'll be just special occasions when we go back Service: Dine in"

Gigi's

Italia Nostra

➤ 25 Baker St, Stirling FK8 1BJ, UK, 9231, United Kingdom

Pizza • Pasta • Steak • Seafood

"We had a wonderful meal while on a weekend away in Stirling. Despite being incredibly busy with the pre Christmas crowds, the manager managed to find us a table for 8pm. Serving staff were friendly, attentive and helpful. Our food was fantastic and full of flavour the arrabiata was especially good and the bruschetta excellent. The atmosphere was cosy and welcoming and a fellow diner giving an astounding rendition of Nessun Dorma added to the festivities! The staff also deserve commendation for their excellent handling of some extremely drunk customers who having complained about an aspect of their meal (didn’t stop them from eating it,or consuming a fair bit of wine) decided to try to leave without paying. We were close enough to their table to hear this being said. They complained to the server and demanded the manager come out to explain things. Upon speaking with the manager one individual said they weren’t paying (not even one assumes for the wine). This particular individual was fairly belligerent. The manager informed them that police would be called if they refused to pay and after some back and fore the party grudgingly agreed to pay something towards the meal. The fact that this happened in front of other diners must have made the situation more awkward for staff but they dealt with it very well, apologising to the remaining customers afterwards (no apology needed). We will definitely return should we be in Stirling again. Lovely place,"

La Dolce Vita

➤ 16 The Square, Hamble-le-Rice, United Kingdom

Fish • Meat • Pasta • Coffee

"Everyone was extremely accomodating, taking into account our guests children's unusual food requests. My carbonara was up there with the best I've ever eaten. The pizzas looked amazing and my husband said his fish dish was superb. We really should visit more often as it's a short walk for us from home."

Mamma Mia

➤ 76 High Street, Horsham, United Kingdom, BN44 3RD

Pasta • Italian • European • Vegetarian

"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."
