The food was gd got alot off prawns but not enough sauce main had chicken in mushroom sauce this was a nice size portion seeing it was on The 2 course for £21.50 deal .even though the food was good I will not be going back the service was so poor took ages to get the food if you are in rush don't go here you will need 2 hours

Booked at table to eat before going to the theatre. We booked for 5.30 ordered straight away. The service was so slow took 20 mins for the starters to arrive. We ate them the food was ok but nothing special. It then took well over 35 min for the mains to arrive after having to ask where they were as it was getting on to quarter to 7 and the show was at 7.30. When it arrived the order was wrong but we decided to eat what they brought with having time restrictions. We'll the food lest just say it was not the best I have eaten the chicken was overcooked and dry the steak was ordered as medium but was really well done. No time for any sweets. Will probably not go again but my partner said everyone deserves a second chance. So will have to see when the indigestion goes.

Wow- amazing authentic Italian food that comes with warm, welcoming service! One of my favourite restaurants and highly recommended!

Nice restaurant. Food was lovely but a bit overpriced. Half way through meal, music was turned up so was glad that we had nearly finished as we couldn't hear one another speak. Overcharging issue with the bill which was sorted out later on but again customers should be given a food bill so the customers can check and not just be given a final cost. But it was busy with a few people wanting to pay at once. But again the bills should come to the table. Maybe this was a one off. Think management need to know that it's not nice as a diner to keep hearing staff being told what to do across the restaurant. If we wanted to eat in a manic diner we'd have gone to Pizza Hut.

This place deserves to be far better known and far more successful. The staff are fab, the specials board is a source of delight with vegan food that also delighted my meat eating partner. The vegan mezze and the vegan meatballs are amazing. The pizzas are great too. The Georgian wines are amazing. That and amazing second hand books and music. Why isn’t this place famous?

Wonderful service, wonderful food. Highly recommend

It was our first time at Gio’s. We loved the food and the atmosphere. The owner or host was very friendly and welcoming- he moved us to a better table without us even asking. The food was high quality- the drink ok. Would go again!

Amazing place, went for Valentine’s Day and even though I turned up early they catered to us and made us welcome. The food was incredible, the lamb melted in my mouth and the staff were all friendly and helpful.

My wife and I had our first date here, so Cafe Italia will always be special to us. The food is delicious, and the service is amazing. Proper Italian food, at great prices. Definitely worth a visit!

The food is always amazing. Staff very friendly and attentive. Our favourite Italian by a mile :-)
