The best restaurantsof italian in Cork

31/12/2025: Overall good experience, giving 4 stars out of five. Something is still not yet there to be rated at five. Food quality was great. Service well on point. Small place, at full capacity it can be very noisy. Management should consider solutions to absorb sounds waves. Recommend.

31/12/2025: Unbelievable from beginning to end! I had the duck special and my partner had the ragu. Both were so tasty. The service was spot on and the place was packed with a lovely atmosphere. Can't wait to come back again!

07/01/2026: Not really authentic Italian if that's what you're in the mood for. Pasta was bland eating in, and a while back we got takeaway and had 2 different pasta dishes that tasted basically the same (and equally lacking in flavour besides just cream and garlic). I've been going here on and off for about 6 years, used to LOVE it back then, but I don't think I'll be going again as I feel the quality and taste isn't the same anymore. But - if it not being authentic doesn't bother you, it's still a decent spot, popular with locals. I'd recommend the pizza, and the Panna Cotta.

28/12/2025: This place is truly a hidden gem. We visited with our family and were honestly impressed from start to finish. The atmosphere feels elegant yet warm and inviting, giving it a premium touch without being stiff or formal. We ordered a variety of Italian classics — spaghetti, pizza, and a few other dishes — and every single plate was outstanding. The flavors were rich and authentic, the ingredients clearly high quality, and everything was beautifully prepared. The service was attentive, professional, and made us feel genuinely welcome. It’s rare to find a restaurant that combines top-tier food, a refined atmosphere, and a relaxed family-friendly vibe so effortlessly. An absolute must-visit for anyone who appreciates excellent Italian cuisine.

30/12/2025: Coming here years we always keep it for special occasions so we don’t get sick of the place, it always ends up being a treat, always great service and amazing food

04/12/2025: Very nice food, I ordered the risotto à la salsichia, it was delicious!! 😍

16/01/2026: Best dinner ever had in my life

16/01/2026: The restaurant is in the center but a bit outdated. We noticed the dirt and the slow and disorganized service. The food is definitely not Italian, of poor quality. The owners are rude and busy on the phone. I do not recommend the restaurant and will never return. It's terrible.

07/01/2026: The food was excellent —great quality and very tasty! The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the restaurant lacked proper heating, which made the experience a bit uncomfortable.

07/01/2026: Always great service and incredible food

07/01/2026: Bad service, they're shoveling food in front of you not even clearing the table of the previous course. Food is good (avoid arancini/rice balls they're dry and overcooked) and okay priced. Despite booking a table they put you in a random place not caring at all about the booking (Ie: twi peopl in a table of 4, then move you again in front of the return empty dishes place always there

06/01/2026: The food was amazing. Fresh and feel good after it.

26/12/2025: Genuinely one of the top 5 pizzas I’ve ever had, their piccola diavola is amazing, the chilli honey is so sweet and it’s cooked perfectly. Stunning food. Smash.

16/12/2025: Always an enjoyable addition to having the best craft beer in Cork.

11/12/2025: I can't imagine pizza tasting better!

26/11/2025: Very good service, and food is so delicious

05/01/2026: Since Irish food is what it is, a good pizza is always welcome. And they make really good ones here.

23/12/2025: Interesting ordering policy. They operate a FILO system - First In, Last to Order
