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.

Some of the most enjoyable & authentic southern Italian food I’ve had in Wales, the arancini were excellent and a great choice of pizze. Salads a little expensive for the size but very fresh. Definitely worth it overall. 9/10

One of our favourite restaurants which we keep coming back to, and introducing more family and friends to it along the way! We particularly love the breakfasts - they use such high quality ingredients making it amazing value for money. Pasta and pizza never disappoint...here either! Grazie mille!More

Very disappointed with my take out lunch today. I often call in for a take out Parmigiana I drive 10 miles to taste one of my favourite dishes from this restaurant and the last few times haven’t been good but todays was the worst. I...was charged £9.00 for a plastic tray of slop that had been nuked in the microwave. It was tasteless very little cheese, hard polenta and bland tomato sauce. I had a few bites and threw it in the bin I’m to embarrassed to take the dish back and complain. Last year the dish was a big portion of delicious tasty food so I don’t know what’s gone wrong if there’s a new chef or if they’ve started to cut corners on the produce they buy due to the cost of living. The tray it came in is much smaller than the usual ones so the portions are definitely smaller. Feel like I’ve been ripped off. Won’t be visiting again ☹️More

Heard so many good things from so many people about this place. Sadly my breaded chicken was over cooked. Staff friendly, lovely ambience. Still looking to find an Italian to call my favourite. Hopefully my experience is an exception.

Arrived here at 7pm. Very busy with a good vibe. Sat inside Infront of the window as this was the only spare table and there were 4 of us. It was very hot but a very hot day. The children had starters which were a...plate of chips and calamari. For their main meal they had pizza which were huge. My friend and I had a dessert which was large. We also ordered 6 tins of soft drinks. Didn't find the staff very friendly but they were attentive and had good service. I would definitely go back and have a meal myself as looked deliciousMore
