   We’ve been before and loved it. We booked for our anniversary. When we arrived they asked if we had a booking, we did. They didn’t say hello, ignored us and walked off. They then looked behind us and asked the next in the queue and seated them. We waited an hour for our starter. They were far too busy. No charm. Food average. Poor service. We won't want to return

   Staff could have been more attentive but they were friendly enough and the food was good, so overall a nice meal.

   Our party of 5 had such a fantastic evening. Located on the stunning quay in Poole, we were warmly welcomed and soon enjoying a crisp white wine. The menu had a wide variety of choices and the atmosphere was happy/buzzy with lots of tables enjoying their meals including 2 celebrities who said hello. Food was served and superb. Everyone loved their dishes and the restaurant's reputation of outstanding cuisine was agreed by all. Fresh, tasty and delicious. The staff were very attentive even though they were so busy. Always smiling and keen to assist. We couldn't resist the desserts, I must mention how amazing the caramel cheesecake was. WOW! Thank you to the team at Da Vinci's. We all highly recommend the restaurant and will be back soon.

   As we were a party of 12 the restaurant met our needs in all respects. It was a family meeting for Easter Monday and our party consisted of 5 adults and 7 children all cousins. We were very well served and the food some of the best we’ve had. We’d highly recommend.

   We just had a lovely meal at Da Vinci’s in Poole! Food was excellent, every starter, main and dessert that we ordered were amazing, but best of all was the service and how we were looked after by Paolo and his fellow staff members! It was my birthday and it was the perfect way to finish a great day! Thank you

    My friend is gluten free and opted for the nargherta pizza (gf). She really did not enjoy it and only ate 1.5 pieces. Please cook till it’s crispy. Me ricotta and spinach cannelloni was nothing special I’m afraid. The restaurant was a little cold but service was attentive
