Apologies to start. Informed the great waiter we would be back after a show however, the show ended up finishing 45 minutes later and was at the pavilion not BIC. Being disabled i could not make it back before closing. Not sure about the other negative views but my wife and i had a great time,service from our waiter (2/11/23) and food were fantastic. Recommend the lamb steak off the specials board.

We visited the Cristallo with some trepidation after reading some fierce criticism in reviews a few months old. However some recent comments were very positive so we decided to give it a try. All I can say is that the service, the ambience and the quality of food was faultless. The sea bass was cooked to perfection and the Belgian apple pie was incredible! I would also recommend the Merlot which was sublime and very reasonably priced. We look forward to further visits during our stay in Bournemouth!

The wife enjoyed her Risotto, although thought there could of been some more mushrooms. I had chicken stroganoff with Mash and broccoli. Not had this before. Nice and tasty but sauce seemed on the thin side, needed more cream in there? Maybe come with garlic bread or more Mash? Service was great and friendly. Would of had starter and a dessert but we were on a tight schedule for the BIC 😁❤

Absolutely delicious food. The pizza and risotto gets high praise from me and my friends. One star taken off because the desserts are quite poor in comparison - they're brought in rather than made in house. The sauce on my semifreddo had a weird artificial taste and left me feeling suddenly bloated. But all the savoury meals made by the kitchen are indeed top notch.

Absolutely amazing restaurant and food! We turned up unannounced a party of 18 and they couldn’t do enough to accommodate us a great end to our holiday Thankyou!!

Hadn’t planned to go Italian last night but our sushi plans fell through and we decided to give this restaurant a try. We are on the area for a three night stay and even thought it was 9pm the place was buzzing. I am gluten free so had a selection of sizes and a big Greek salad all made to perfection and my daughter had the pepperoni pizza. All divine. Service was good and we would come back again in a heartbeat.

Food excellent with daily specials, staff excellent, atmosphere excellent- guess what? it is fantastic. Take away pizzas are good as well!!
Out of 2 weeks we eat here 6 times (in June), and had a takeaway pizza while watching the football! Cannot wait to go back.

We had a lovely meal here, the staff were very welcoming & professional. The food was outstanding, the flavours were so delicious. The music was naff but we went for some great food which is what we got. Highly recommend.

Unfortunately i did not take pictures to the food as i m not a picture guy. I came down for the weekend in Bournemouth from London. I found this lovely restaurant by mistake on my way back from the beach. The food and service were fantastic. I spoke to all my friends in London that anytime they are going in Bournemouth they should definitely visit this restaurant.
The best steak risotto that i had in long time. Better than any italian restaurant that i've been in London.
Keep up the good work and look after the staff as they were on point.
Absolutely lovely. I recommend this restaurant from the bottom of my heart.
Don't forget to try the Tiramisu.
