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.

Lovely restaurant right opposite some big chain restaurants. Really friendly staff, quickest service I've had in town but not rushed. The food was fab especially the calamari. We went on a groupon deal and will go again

We visited yesterday for lunch and had the sea bass which was beautiful. The staff were friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our experience so much that we returned again today. The prawn cocktail was lovely and chicken pasta was fab! Wish there was a...Ciliegino in North Wales. Thank you allMore

Ciliegino, located in the heart of Cardiff, is a true gem for Italian cuisine lovers. The menu offers a delightful array of authentic Italian dishes, with a focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients. The Mortadella and burrata pesto pizza are a must-try, boasting a perfect balance...of crispy crust and flavorful toppings. The pasta dishes, such as the homemade lasagna, are equally impressive, with rich, savory sauces that leave you craving more. One of the highlights of our visit was the exceptional service provided by a guy called Faisal. His friendly demeanor, extensive knowledge of the menu, and genuine passion for Italian cuisine made our dining experience truly memorable. Faisal went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction, offering personalized recommendations and attending to our every need with a smile.More

Stopped for some lunch whilst shopping - what a warm welcome! Nothing was too much trouble, attentive, friendly and obviously well trained staff in the art of customer service. Makes a massive difference! The food arrived quickly and was worth every penny. Outstanding staff and...delicious food. Oh and my cappuccino - by far the best I’ve had in a long time! Will definitely be back and will recommend to friends.More

Very friendly and accommodating staff. My daughter is a very fussy eater and they were only too happy to oblige. I had the house burger, it was very, very tasty but it was huge. If you are hungry this is the dish for you.

I went for a late lunch/early dinner with a friend and our children. The staff were fantastic with our 4 children and nothing was too much trouble even though it was a Saturday and they were booked out. The food was delicious - I had...the Arriabata Chicken with Taglietelli and my friend had the Truffle Cabonara and the children all had pizza - clean plates all round! Book in advance - you won't be dissapointed.More
