Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Truly delicious authentic Italian food served in a similarly authentic Italian setting. Our waitress Simona was outstanding; fun, knowledgeable and attentive with an infectious smile. The Barolo we drank was also exquisite. We will definitely return again.

This is quite simply the best pizza outside of Italy!!! Simona and her team are warm and welcoming. The menu is extensive and the vibe is buzzing. Sicilian family run business which adds to the authenticity of this beautiful gem in Ilchester. Alfresco dining in...the summer months adds to the med vibe about the restaurant. You will not be disappointed.More

We went here with my parents and children (8 and 11) so we were hoping for somewhere that would keep everyone happy and we found it! Their menu had something for everyone including veggie and children's options. The service was good, attention when it was...needed but not too much. The price was reasonable, especially the main meals which were so generous we had to take some away with us. Already planning to go back.More

If I could give Nuova 10 stars I would! After moving into the area over 2 years ago we have been to Nuova many times. Every time we have visitors we make an effort to introduce them to it too. I've had many dishes from...their menu and never had a bad one. Simona is and absolute delight too. She is happy to give recommendations and always makes us feel like we're at home.More
