Lovely restaurant and staff especially Alicea who served us for the evening. There's a nice relaxed but buzzy atmosphere here and plenty of space between tables so it's not noisy at all. My friend and I shared the cured meats and cheese board with sourdough bread which was plenty for 2 people. I had a caprese pizza which was delicious and my friend the tagliatelli alla bolonese and loved it. I would recommend here. It was only my second visit but I will definitely be back.

We arrived early for our booking and the staff were happy to accommodate us. The service was excellent, but relaxed and friendly. The food was terrific. The pasta dishes which we had were particularly good. We can’t wait to return to Bar Italia and I would recommend it highly.
