The best restaurantsof italian

16/06/2025: We were loving our time at Neligan’s across the road, and saw across the street, on Main Street in Dingle, Pizzeria Novecento. Entering, you could see as they were boxing some up that it was offering an authentic thin‑and‑crispy pizza. I grabbed a slice of cheese as a quick snack while I perused the menu and decided on behalf of our group that the Carnivora pizza was what we needed. The locals and bar staff at Neligan’s told us we were allowed to bring it over, so I returned triumphant like my hunter/gatherer ancestors and enjoyed devouring the pizza in the fun atmosphere of the pub. Pizzeria Novecento has the following going for it: Quality ingredients + think artisanal crust: quality toppings on a great base. By the slice option: it was nice to grab a slice of Cheese while thinking of what else to order, it helped absorb some of the Guinness and whiskey and passed the time as as we waited for the main event to cook. Great service: staff were friendly, efficient, warm, and happy to recommend. Local endorsement: folks at the pub told us it was good, there were a lot of regulars stopping by to pick up, even the friendly Gardaí popped in to grab their dinner while we were there. The guys at Pizzeria Novecento were telling us they have outlets elsewhere, but I definitely didn’t get the sense it was a big chain pizza place, you didn’t really get any feeling it was part of a franchise, but looking online it looks like the other locations share some branding and ethos. Right across at Neligan’s pub - we took our pizza over to eat, there are other pubs and places to visit around here. Not far from St James’ Church, the local shops - you’ll be glad you found it and visited. We felt like pizza after a few pints, so was a blessing to find this place selling well‑made pizza right near where we were. Novecento was chosen for convenience, but the quality, local charm and authentic takeaway pizza was a massive bonus and is another fond memory of our time in Dingle.

29/04/2025: Have gotten pizza from their Cork branch plenty of times, but first time in Dingle. Ordered a bunch of different pizzas for a group of 20 on Saturday evening to take across to An Droichead Beag. Fantastic menu, really good value, lots of choice and all as good as the next. The guy who I was dealing with was so lovely and accommodating. Thanks so much!

20/05/2025: Delicious food, wonderful appetizers, excellent Chianti, and spectacular service by Dennis and the crew.

20/05/2025: Nice place, friendly staff. Personally I wasn't thrilled with the pizza, but here it's a matter of taste. I found the price of drinks high: €9.90 for a glass of non-selected wine as well as €14 for an aperitif are frankly too high.

08/06/2025: We loved this restaurant, well worth a visit.

03/06/2025: Fantastic meal and great service

30/06/2025: Great gluten-free pizza. But, but, but: I was really unsure about the desserts. I don't drink alcohol on principle and asked which dessert was gluten-free. When I pointed out that the cake they'd recommended to me had layers of gin, they said it was jam. And? It's still alcoholic. Honestly, that shattered my trust in the staff. PS: The espresso was great.

29/06/2025: Pizza was delicious, strawberry Sunday was just okay and quiet expensive at 8.50

14/06/2025: Our Server Jodie was friendly, courteous and professional as all the staff were from start to finish. They even sang Happy Birthday for two of our guests. The food is excellent. We got the Early Bird, reasonable for a Starter, Main Course and Dessert. A range of dishes for all tastes are catered and we ordered from the children's menu for one of our party. Everyone was happy, relaxed atmosphere and our servers were quick to tend to our needs. Everything was done with efficiency and our table was cleared of food when required and we were left to enjoy our meal in peace. Highly recommend to all, thank you

09/06/2025: Brilliant place really friendly staff lovely food

06/07/2025: Had a delicious seafood pasta and pizza here. Lovely atmosphere and great service

30/06/2025: I ordered the Quattro formaggio pizza. It was amazing. It was also really big.

14/06/2025: The worst lasagne I have ever eaten no meet what so ever and the bread was full of salt

08/06/2025: Food really bad. Not much taste, quantity is small and expensive. Service is really good though

09/07/2025: I was extremely hungry when I came here. If you want to grab a bite and share a delicious pizza then this one should be on your list. Recommend the BBQ Chicken Pizza!

08/07/2025: Always good service and delicious food!

05/07/2025: Fast and friendly service in this small, slightly out-of-the-way café. Good Irish breakfast at a reasonable price. The tomato beans are a bit spicy, which is a novelty! Student discounts (-10%) which we forgot to take advantage of… too bad! Only a small downside: the pop music is a bit loud and perhaps not very suitable for breakfast? But that's a matter of taste!

29/06/2025: Couldn't recommend this restaurant highly enough. Dined here this evening with group of 3 and we all agreed the food is AMAZING. Nicest pizza I have ever had (and trust me I've eaten my fair share of pizzas). Excellent wine selection too. Staff all very welcoming, friendly and attentive. Ambiance is spot on. All in all a very enjoyable dining experience. Will one million per cent be back. Well done A+++++++

02/06/2025: The only place in Galway where you can actually get proper Italian food with all the ingredients made in Italy. If you really want to feel like you are in Italy, this is the place for you. The staff is very friendly and the food just amazing. I recommend trying the 4 cheese pizza or 4 cheese gnocchi. Definitely gonna come back to Galway just to visit this place again

31/05/2025: What makes your experience phenomenal other than the taste of the food? Your server! Zack, is such a fine gentleman with a huge positive vibe and welcoming aura. We loved every minute of our dinner and would definitely be back for more!

24/06/2025: One of the best dining experiences we’ve had! The marinated lemon and garlic chicken breast was absolutely perfect – juicy, tender, and full of flavor. I was a bit unsure at first since chicken breast can often be dry, but this was cooked to perfection! The starter was equally delicious, and we loved the chips and the pizza too. Every dish was spot on. The staff were incredibly welcoming and the service was fast and friendly. We truly enjoyed everything and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

21/06/2025: Fantastic Food and Service. Great tasting pasta and pizza!

19/06/2025: Enjoyed dinner here last night. My wife had the carbonara and I had the lasagna alla bolognese. Both were very good with only having a better lasagna in Florence, IT. The house wine was also very good and smooth as I t went well with our meals. The carbonara had large pieces of guanciale which made it even better. Overall, a fantastic meal here in Dublin.

17/06/2025: Amazing food. Best Ravioli I've had.

14/06/2025: The place to go for great New York style pizza in Dublin. A taste of the Big Apple in Ireland.

14/06/2025: 6.50 Euro for a plain slice. Ouch. The pizza itself isn't too bad, just can't justify paying that.

08/06/2025: We had burrata and garlic bread for starters, and pizza, seafood spaghetti and ravioli for mains. Everything was amazingly good. The service was super friendly and very attentive at all times. We recommend it 100%, we will be back.

30/05/2025: They were able to sit us (group of 5) without a reservation on a Friday night. The positives stop there. We were sat outside under a tree that provided freshly grated bird feces at a table that was not wiped down. No worries, the waitstaff who were giving their best “this is my first job” impression had no intention of cleaning it off. Moving on. We had finished two bottles of wine before having our order taken (at least an hour in). The wine was good, but likely because they had nothing to do with it besides opening it. The food was mid. Could be better, could be worse. Cherry on top was the order of bread that we placed resulted in 3 pieces of raw bread (literally dropped in a toaster and called it a day) for a table of 5. Safe to say we didn’t stay for dessert. At least they were able to sit us on a Friday night with no reservation. In hindsight, not a surprise.

17/06/2025: I took chicken with pureed potatoes etc, very good except for the raw carrots.. after all excellent! Two things I didn't like: 1) he wanted to sit in front, and.. after a while... they put me in the back half of the rest, 2) while I was eating, an employee arrives, and passes by my silvando as if we were in a football stadium🙈

12/06/2025: This place should be at least a 4.7. It serves such unique pizzas and interesting drinks. The staff are super nice too. Even their decor is stand out.
