Reviews Da Vinci Italian Restaurant

If you are in the mood for some pizza & pasta, Da Vinci's in Aberdeen is the place to go. I heard some great reviews from friends and wanted to give it a go myself, booking in advance is advisable as it can fill up really quickly although they charge you a £10 booking fee online to reserve a table which is a bit disappointing and you can't use it towards your bill either, it gets refunded at a later date. Da Vinci's is a modern quaint restaurant located on Alford Lane in Aberdeen, staff are really down to earth, friendly and really do give you a warm welcome. They have several menus including a set course menu, pizza menu and the normal main menu, pricing is a little expensive but for a family run business it is expected as the food is second to none, served hot, well presented and tastes delicious. I highly recommend trying a pizza although it would be good if they could add a spicy variant as I think that could be quite good. They do automatically add a service charge to the bill which I find disappointing as this is mainly found in England as we normally tip if out at a restaurant. So with the £10 booking fee and the service charge it did make it an expensive trip out for the evening but well worth it for the food quality. Will definitely be back to try some more pizza!

What a lovely cozy restaurant! Perfect for a date or going with family, but I think the atmosphere is especially good for a romantic dinner with someone special. The best Italian in Aberdeen by far, the second doesn't come even close. Price is good for a place of it's obvious category that has been awarded so many times. Service was efficient and the food... Well! Anything I can say about the food will come out short, so just come and see for yourself. We ordered the boar ravioli, the prosciutto pizza, bruschetta and a tiramisu as a dessert. All very advisable.

A really lovely restaurant. Authentic Italian, with a rustic feel. The food was fantastic, the server was really welcoming and friendly. Music was gentle and set the mood well. It’s quite a romantic place. As a point of improvement, If you can please change the noises from the restaurant phone and door. They are very loud and they really break up the atmosphere set by the lighting, the smelling candles and the music. Once that’s done, I think the restaurant will be the absolute best!

The food was really good but too expensive, the deserts are not what we expected…they could be better. On the other hand, lovely service!

I visited this restaurant with my friend and it was amazing. The restaurant itself is tucked away from the busy-ness of the city, the staff are attentive, helpful and very friendly. The food… unreal, I can quite honestly say this was the best food I have eaten in my lifetime, and such a surprise! The pasta is amazing, the cheese board for starters is a must (although quite filling just FYI) and the house red is beautiful. Absolutely recommend this place.

Authentic Italian restaurant, with friendly staff. Booked on the phone, got a nice table and had a great time with nice cocktails and delicious food. Try the gnocchi, the homemade ragu is outstanding.

We celebrated my father-in-law's birthday at this brilliant restaurant. The food and wine was out of this world, beautifully presented. We were well looked after by our waitress. We were a party of 9 adults and a great time was had by all. Check the photos of three of the starters. Many Thanks for a superb afternoon. Highly recommended. A fantastic restaurant 10/10

Good restaurant one of the best in Aberdeen. Need to book early to get your slot. Felt the food was not quite up to the standard when we last visited - but they were pushed as one of the staff was off sick. Nice cosy 'bistro' type restaurant

Lovely, cosy and bright little restaurant run by Italian chef couple. Menu is quite small and simple with a good selection of Tuscan specials. I ordered breaded cutlets with chips and my wife had handmade gnocchi with bolognese and mozzarella. As a desert we choose the best tiramisu (really one of the best we've had so far) and vegan truffles with coconut. Service was great, really polite and knowledgeable waitress. Not only the food is really tasty and freshly made but the place is very clean. An interesting thing was a little leaflet on the table advertising a main course, glass of wine and Italian lesson with head chef cooking for the group, would like to try that one day. Will definitely be back for the evening menu.

Very very impressed with the authenticity of the place. Ordered 4 cheese gnocchi , loved it! Must warn it's very rich and heavy . The owner was very accomodating and lovely , brought me some melons to refresh myself as I couldn't have any desserts. My friend had vegan tagliatelle with mushrooms which was absolutely delicious ! Light and flavourful with a decent portion.

Pasta waa very garlicky, but not bad. No options for the usual carbonara or bolognese so wouldn't suit kids. It was very busy so quite loud but service was excellent and food came quicky. They also have a seperate section of the menu for vegans which is handy if needed.

Beautiful taste of Tuscany in the courtyard. Had a lovely evening meal here, with delightful service and exquisite food. Lots of nice touches brought us right back to Sienna, like a holiday without the hassle!
