This restaurant is situated in Fore Street, Heavitree, Exeter so it is not in the centre of town.
It is an Italian restaurant and Pizzaria which has been open for many years.
The food is excellent and the prices are very reasonable for the food and service.
You can usually park in the street, but there is a small car park nearby. It is disabled friendly, although the tables are quite close together.
The staff are very helpful.
There is a range of pasta dishes, lots of veal dishes, chicken and meat. The Filletto di Maiale al Rosmarino, which is tenderloin of pork & rosemary is a particular favourite of mine. They also do steaks. They also have a very nice fish menu.
All main course dishes are served with potatoes and vegetables or Spaghetti Napoletana.
Open in the evenings Mondays - Saturdays and lunchtimes Tuesdays - Fridays (closed Sundays).
Best carbonara in town, hands down. Not in the Center but charming none the less. Great atmosphere helped by its capo.
We got married and then had a meal with 40 of our friends and family at Quo Vadis. We are so grateful to them for making a large chunk of our wedding day SUCH A JOY. The food was delicious, the courses were numerous, the atmosphere was friendly and relaxed and just perfect. We had several small children running around, and several unexpected dietary needs but all was accomodated easily and with smiles. We had been eating at Quo Vadis on normal nights out previously, and had always enjoyed the food and the friendly, cosy atmosphere. And then they went beyond our expectations and gave us our perfect, family-friendly, delicious, easy-going, HUGE, beautifully presented wedding meal. Thankyou so much Quo Vadis. You are the top!
Sublime authentic Italian food and drink in cosy atmosphere. Recommend.
Came here with some family members for a birthday meal recently. The chef was very passionate about the food and gave us a detailed description of the specials board and the origins of each dish which was a great extra touch. We unfortunately had an awkward customer with us on the night but the staff and chef were very patient and handled it very well even offering to cook something specific that wasn't on the menu to accommodate them. The food itself was superb and is definitely worth a visit. Thanks for your patience with us on the night.
Lovely food, cosy atmosphere, heavenly desserts, and the wine... Absolutely gorgeous. Alex, the waiter knows how to present the menu, and Chef Oliver puts lots of love in every single dish. The most authentic Italian restaurant in the area. Highly recommend.
Cannot recommend Quo Vadis highly enough. The food is incredible and delicious with a huge range of options. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. But the best part is the staff. Especially Oliver who is so friendly and entertaining and happy to sit with you and have a drink and chat, and often lets us sample his home-made drinks and treats. I have been 5 times in 6 months and every time has been 5/5. The best italian restaurant I've been to in the UK. Cannot recommend it more highly!
We went here as a large group for my 50th, friendly welcome and service and great food with a varied menu and I believe everyone was happy with their meals. They even brought out a birthday cake that was supplied and joined in. The only critism was that we were never offered desert or coffee etc. Maybe they had had enough of us by then 😀
Excellent food choices, friendly and helpful service. We've been here several times and always been very happy with the whole experience.
We were planning to go for a curry but the half empty curry place up the road was not taking customers. How times have changed. So we tried the Q V and the staff made us welcome and we had a delicious meal and wine.
Great evening spent here on New Year’s Eve, delicious and authentic Italian food, friendly atmosphere and excellent value for money. Host Isabella and chef Oliver were really welcoming and we look forward to coming back again soon for another slice of the gorgeous tiramisu 😃 x
Absolutely fantastic meal out! I had the Insalata Caprese followed by a pizza then a truffle and cream desert - all were cooked to perfection and made beautifully with lovely ingredients. Will definitely return!
Classic italian restaurant with a great history of being one of the landmarks of the italian food in Devon, decades long loyal customers return confirms this establishment as an important part of private ownership and tradition that, regardless the advance of corporate catering and franchising, confirms itself as a true love letter to Italian culinary.
