We’ve been wanting to go here for a while as it always looked lovely from the outside and it didn’t disappoint.
The food and service was excellent. I will be coming back here very soon!
We paid £70 for two but had 3 courses and 1 drink each (me a Diet Coke and my girlfriend a cocktail at £8.50). I thought it was reasonable priced for the food and experience.
My only slight criticism is that my main course said it had chilli in and I couldn’t taste any. But, that’s just me being picky as it tasted amazing.
Fully recommend.
Family friendly, welcoming, Italian restaurant with plenty to choose from the menu though I found my well done stake over-priced.
A gem in Reading! Best service I have had in the UK in years. Pizza was fresh tasting and with just enough firmness to the crust. Interior is nice and felt very welcomed by the owner himself.
For those of you mourning the demise of Dolce Vita and the decline of Pepe Sale this is the place for you! I went with my family on a quiet Wednesday evening to celebrate a birthday. Despite only a few other customers we felt very comfortable here. The food was fabulous. Most of us had three courses and we all enjoyed every morsel. The wine was great and the gin selection was interesting and tasty. The level of service was perfect for us, no fussing or intrusion but there when needed and friendly. I very much look forward to returning. Soon hopefully!
Food was absolutely amazing! The freshness, flavours and options on the menu were superb.
Not your usual run-of-the-mill Italian fast food.
Service equally excellent, friendly and prompt.
I came on a quiet Wednesday but was made to feel very welcome by the owner.
Could not recommend more highly.
Beautiful food. All cooked to order. Such a pleasant experience and a great break from all the chains in Reading.
Great tasting food!! Very homely atmosphere and quite a relaxed environment. There is only one server which I guess could go one of two ways. As there were not many people in the restaurant you would expect the server to be a little more hands on, nothing was wrong with the service but use any opportunity to build a regular base. I would recommend this restaurant!!
We've been here quite a few times and whether we've had Pizza, pasta, steak, chicken, etc the food has all been freshly prepared and delicious. We were there on Friday lunchtime and the place was empty. I know it's not the greatest location but it's well worth a visit for an excellent meal and wonderful service. I can't can't recommend this place enough.
We have been eating here regularly since they opened. By far the most authentic Italian food in Reading and very good value for money. Absolutely delicious! Friendly and attentive service all the time. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Wow, what a find. We visited Sunday lunch time and hoped that we could still use the garden and decked area as we use to when this was the Pineapple pub. On getting out of the car we were greeted by a warm “Prego” from Maurizio the chef. We were shown to an outside table, passing through the restaurant which had been decorated tastefully. The garden was simple, tidy and there was plenty of room between the tables so you didn’t feel hemmed in by other diners
We went for the Chicken Marengo (a dish I had never heard of before but I can highly recommend) and sea bass, both so full of flavour and delicious
As well as Maurizio’s warm welcome, the two waiters that visited our table were friendly as was the manager that came across to introduce himself and welcome us to his restaurant. As it was the end of the afternoon we were shown around the kitchen and met the “back room” staff, all in all, we were made to feel very welcome throughout
Great food (the best Italian food I’ve had), great staff, a great feel to the whole place, this is a place we will be returning to often
