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.

Tried calling 10+ times - either busy or not there Will take bookings via WhatsApp or email so can’t get through that way either You can’t expect potential customers to constantly try phoning. People are busy ! Please sort this out !

Went here for a bit of a treat, and it did not disappoint. The mussels in a tomato sauce were really nice and a really good temperature when they arrived at the table. Everyone's main was fantastic and arrived promptly, especially good given the size...of the geoup, we were looked after by the staff really well. My only criticism is having to listen to happy birthday being sang at least twice on every visit, but having worked in an Italian restaurant previously I have PTSD from doing this each shift (as well as being a grump!)More

We were a walk in during a busy afternoon. Seated right away. All staff helpful and friendly. Food was very flavourful, good portion sizes also. Very relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely return when next in Chester.

Just dropped by - fabulous welcome from everyone. I honestly thought I was in Naples . The pizzas are authentic and delicious and you can see them being made. Thin - crispy and delicious toppings . 2 prosciutto and 1 Napoli . Celebrating buying my...son’s purchase of an engagement ring for his GF . Will definitely return and hopefully for longer.More

Excellent, authentic Italian restaurant. Service was brilliant, all staff working extremely hard, but nothing was too much trouble. They all took time to check in on you. The food was outstanding. We wished lived nearer so we could visit more often. If we were ever...in Chester again, we'd definitely go back here.More

What a great restaurant. Atmosphere was buzzing. If you're looking for a quiet evening, not the place to come. Simple starter of garlic bread with olives. My wife and I both had the lasagne for mains. Superb main. Very tasty. Didn't leave space for dessert....Finished off with cappuccino. Attentive staff. Great to see 3 other guests getting the 'Happy Birthday' treatment from the staff.More

I was recommended this place by some locals. Missing some Italian food, I walked in hoping to get a table for 1, got one easily (at 5.30pm). It was pleasantly decorated with Italian posters and items around the room. I was given a drink and...food menu, I decided on the San Pellegrino blood orange and a Prosciutto Pizza with added Rocket. It was a lovely place, I was able to practise some of my limited Italian with the staff, as lots of them spoke the language. Meal was well priced for the authentic cuisine. The food was very nice (prosciutto was ham not the traditional prosciutto) and the service was very quick, they didn’t rush me at all and only checked in once with my meal, which was perfect for me. Pizza came out hot, almost straight of the oven, which was so nice to have! A shout out to my waitress Ksenia for an outstanding job of service, she went above and beyond, chatting with me and was always smiling! She made my experience amazing! There was someone next to me celebrating a birthday and they turned off the lights and all sung together using a cow bell too! So adorable! Would recommend La Fattoria!More

A bustling, lively restaurant. A real family feel. Lots of choice on the menu. We visited at lunchtime with two children and the staff made them feel welcome which was lovely. I'd definitely visit again and would recommend this restaurant.

I don’t know where to start with this review. The entire meal went from bad to worse. on arrival we got rudly ignored by most members of staff until the manager/shift leader seated us right outside the males toilets directly below the air conditioning unit....Which leaked and dripped over us for the duration of our visit. The food wasn’t great. We ordered a calzone which arrived cold and soggy. A garlic bread with cheese which seemed to be missing the garlic and the cheese. The pasta on the other hand was pretty good but overall the food wasn’t great and all 3 dishes were delivered to the table at different times leaving us uncomfortably waiting to eat although we requested them to be served together The price of water is more expensive than a can of coke.. Staff were incredibly ignorant, resorting in us waiting 25 minutes for the bill to arrive.. Chester has plenty of great Italian restaurants and sadly this seems to of gone down hill since my previous visitMore

After completing the National 3 Peaks in 24 hours we needed some carbs. Italian was the decision! Chester seems to have an abundance of Italian restaurants but this one was chosen. Just outside the town, it’s only a few minutes to walk here. It’s very...popular, good size and plenty of staff on hand to seat you and take orders. Drinks came promptly and food orders taken with no issue. Food came shortly after, with an open kitchen right in sight of the tables it’s clear they’re making things properly. Had the calzone which was a good size and great flavour. Table came to £75 for 3 mains, a starter, a side and 6 drinks so decent value too. Worth a visit!More

Where in Northgate Street? It's literally down Northgate St to the Cross, then down Bridge St, cross the lights into Lower Bridge St,and it's situated on the left. So, 5 mins,maybe 10 minutes at the most.

1 mile, but not a straight mile. So, 25mins walk from Chester Station, or bus number 1 from the station to Wrexham takes about 5mins with 2mins walk from the bus stop (get off at Grosvenor St). By car/taxi it's also 5mins.
