Arrived late in Bristol on a rainy Sunday night. Found the San Carlo open, with a few people enjoying dinner. Found the restaurant decorum to be clean and warm and a bit cheesy. Service was standard Italian, everyone on the staff having a certain job to perform, aloof, non attentive, but available none the less. We split a starter of... more

I came here just for a quick bite with a friend, so wanted to share a pasta dish and a starter. It was during a time when there were hardly any other customers (since it wasn't really "meal time" yet. The rude waiter said "NO, u are not allowed to share, you must order one each". Not bothered to get... more

My partner and I visited San Carlo on a recent trip to Bristol and it was absolutely fantastic. It has a very authentic feel, all the staff were friendly, fast & efficient and the food was delicious. There's plenty of choice, i'm a vegetarian, my partner is a true carnivore and we were both spoilt for choice, I cannot praise... more

We booked a family get together far in advance but the restaurant got the time and number of diners wrong. Rather than deal with this sensibly the manager was rude and insisted that we had got it wrong. We were kept waiting for a long time and they did not even take our coats. He was unpleasant throughout and refused... more

We ate here last saturday night and even though we hadn't booked a table was found for us within five minutes ther were five of us also. The only complaint we would have is that they come for your order a little too quickly, you barely have time to read the menu befor they come to you. I had the... more

We visited this restaurant yesterday and really enjoyed every aspect of it. We loved our food but what stood out for us was the service. Every single person who works there seems to be totally dedicated, cheerful and friendly. We will definitely visit this restaurant again when we come back to Bristol. more

In and out within 50 minutes!! Yes indigestion is the way to go. Barely had we digested our first course then our main meal was delivered, as a result we were not able to finish. If you are looking for that intimate table for two then be prepared to share it with other quests as they seemed to have squeezed... more

Re visited this restuarant as part of our stayover in Bristol last weekend. Easy walk 15 minute walk through Queen Square from the Mercure Holland House where we were staying on a lovely warm July evening. We had booked a table and at 8pm when we arrived there were already at least 9 or 10 tables occupied. Food was excellent... more

I enjoyed my first visit to the restaurant. I had mussels to start with, which were huge! Main and dessert both lovely. V attentive staff, maybe a little to much, was asked 3 times if we would like to order our food even though we hadn't even had the chance to check out the menu. Will definately go back again... more
