The best restaurantsof italian

05/08/2026: OMG the carbonara was as good as in best Italian restaurants. The guy who invited us in was doing basically everything - a robot of a serviceman and was so nice in all of it... Do not have pics - ate it asap. Highly recommend.

04/08/2026: excelent service - waiter let us order even we were a little late for that but you know we are tourists 😅 after long day trip - thank you so much! pizza was really good and the cold beer. I really recommend this place!

01/08/2026: Gorgeous pizza and lovely staff and some left for later 🙌🏼

29/07/2026: I visited this place recently for a birthday party. The Pizzas were beautiful, great selection to choose from. Well worth a visit. Staff were so friendly.

16/07/2026: Amazing food. I definitely recommend the carbonara!

19/06/2026: A must stop if you’re a fan of Pizza. Just fantastic. Fast friendly service all at a reasonable price.

25/07/2026: Visited twice and on both occasions the food has been excellent. Well worth a visit if you are looking for a great pasta or pizza in a relaxed atmosphere.

13/07/2026: I eat here about once a month,have to say the Lasagne is perfect ,the only downside is I come to relax and enjoy food and atmosphere but when younger staff are on they tend to play dance/rap music which isn't relaxing hence only 2 stars.

09/07/2026: Always friendly staff Tasty food and lots of gluten-free options, including beer There is a nice area for sitting outside with heaters

03/07/2026: I popped in for a working lunch and was greeted by Rachel who was so friendly and helpful. Had a delicious pasta dish and a latte. Staff were friendly throughout my visit and restaurant was clean. Really positive experience and I hope to be back in next time I visit .

09/07/2026: We had a delicious pizza here last night on our visit to Kerry. A beautiful setting also. Old church and friendly staff. I recommend the pudding pizza

08/07/2026: It could have been 5 stars if: The pizza dough resembled a cheap supermarket tarte flambée dough, and the topping was neither plentiful nor tasty. There are much better frozen pizzas! So, only 2 stars remain: For the location and the friendly service. What a shame!

18/07/2026: All good, however pizza has more cheese than dough. Not too fit, but tasty ;) ceasar salad very tasty!

06/07/2026: Very nice restaurant in Dublin. We went on a whim and make sure you have reservations as they only had a table for a limited time. It had a good views of the streets. The server was nice and very apologetic our food was taking a while. The food itself was quite nice although definitely not above average.

12/07/2026: Lovely food, drinks, desserts and service. Place is always very welcoming and usually not crowded, so you get a good meal in good atmosphere. I have been here in different days and times and never regret to go for. The cleanliness and presentation of the establishment are also a plus.

11/07/2026: Had lunch here today, absolutely beautiful food. Had the chicken and potatoes with salad. Great portions. Had the ice cream for desert. Nice staff also. Thank you!

06/07/2026: It was one of best restaurant experiences ever! We came on time but realized we have only 50 minutes all in all - but thanks to the Rinucci team we were able to taste both starter and main course - and the food was stunning. It was a pity that we had no time to taste b-day cake but nevertheless we are truly pleased! Than you so much for everything! We definitely will come back!

03/07/2026: I ordered the spaghetti with meatballs, juicy delicious homemade meatballs with a lovely creamy sauce. Very friendly staff, good review all together

03/07/2026: Lovely family meal when passing through Drogheda - did a GLUTEN FREE PIZZA search and this place popped up GF pizza was excellent along with all other family meals and service was really Good and very friendly

28/06/2026: The food here is unreal especially the pizzas, but the staff are what make it better! Genuinely the friendliest most attentive staff I’ve experienced. Really upbeat and helpful, they add so much to the restaurant. Food is also gorgeous and reasonably priced !

14/05/2026: The food was excellent, really authentic Italian done properly. Everything we had was full of flavour and clearly made with care –we ordered simple dishes but done very, very well. The pasta in particular was spot on. Definitely recommend booking as it small but the atmosphere is cosy and relaxed to sit in and enjoy your evening Service was friendly and easygoing, no fuss, just genuine and welcoming. All in all, a really enjoyable night and definitely one we’ll be repeating.

27/03/2026: Last night we phoned and spoke with Samona. We ordered a takeaway of mixed salad, tagliolini with homemade bread. OMG the food was absolutely mouth watering and delicious 😋. We will definitely order again. Please note you can also dine in as well.

26/07/2026: If you are lucky enough like we were to get a window seat on a beautiful sunny day, then, it's a lovely vista overlooking the sea and marina. The staff who served us we both polite and patient as we pondered the menu choices. We chose from the set and al a carte menu and although the portions were quite small, they were adequate when we added some sides. The dishes were fresh and well flavoured and helped along by a nice bottle of wine and based on four sharing the guide price would be between fifty to sixty euro per person. The atmosphere was nice and friendly and it's a popular choice so it was quite busy but we didn’t feel rushed. Yes, it will be on our list when we next visit this beautiful area. Malahide is a wonderful place to visit and has good travel connections to Dublin City using the DART Train Service. The town has a pedestrianised main street with a wide selection of bars etc. Definitely a great place to visit whether you arrive by yacht to its marina or by road or rail. Best wishes to all the Staff, Joe

17/07/2026: Great that this Malahide restaurant is under new management and has made a positive impact on the choice of quality offerings to dine at in Malahide. Love the menu, and on our last visit, I was very pleased with the food, the service, and the general buzz about the place! We will be back soon...

12/07/2026: The best Italian food ever! The owners are incredibly nice and welcoming, and the portions are huge—even guys can get very full. It's really delicious! 😋

11/07/2026: Had a pretty terrible experience here for dinner. We had booked a table for 9:00pm. Things seemed fine at first, apart from some confusion when taking our drinks order, but that wasn't a major issue. It then took around 20–25 minutes before anyone came to take our food order. We ordered three starters, three pasta mains and two pizzas. After several reminders, the starters didn't arrive until around 10:15pm. This was particularly surprising given that one starter was ham and melon and another was a simple bruschetta. To make matters worse, the starters all arrived at different times. When our empty starter plates were eventually cleared, we ordered a glass of red wine, which then took another 20 minutes to arrive. The three pasta dishes also arrived separately. About five minutes after the pasta started coming out, we were told the pizzas would be another five minutes. Throughout the evening, we watched several tables who had arrived after us receive both their starters and mains before we did. At that point, we decided to cancel the pizzas as the wait had become unreasonable. We received an insincere apology from the owner, Sylvia, who blamed the delays on the restaurant having two kitchens. However, this explanation didn't make much sense given that other tables were being served promptly throughout the evening. It's a real shame because the food we did receive was good. Unfortunately, the service and the way the situation was handled completely overshadowed the meal.

05/07/2026: I think this is one of the best Italian restaurants in Ireland. Absolutely fabulous delicious food. Willow was our waitress, who was super efficient & friendly. The sicilian chicken was divine & the fettuccine boscaiolo so delicious. Very generous portions and excellent value for money.

29/06/2026: Food was excellent and staff very good.

28/05/2026: The best Bruschetta Caprese I've ever eaten! The antipasto was also delicious and fresh. Very authentic Italian cuisine. I went back to Passatempo for lunch today. This time I had the Ragu Bolognese and it was simply outstanding.

26/05/2026: I’m Italian, I have been living in Ireland for 3 years so far, traveled everywhere and this it the first authentic 100% excellent Italian food. Feels like home
