    This is the second time we have eaten at La Delizia and just as good second time around. Food is excellent and you can have small plates such as Antipasti or larger meal if you prefer and if you want to top up with some authentic Italian goodies, then cheese, meats, olives, tinned items, dried pasta, sweet items available. Lovely ambience, friendly and helpful staff. It's only small inside - can eat outside as well - so on a weekend probably advisable to book. No hesitation in recommending La Delizia, will be going back.

    Very tasty food , we shared a few plates for lunch , the meatballs and the salmon with prawns were particularly delicious Seating outside is protected by a glass screen to keep the wind off you plus reduces traffic noise and fumes so a very pleasant experience The inside is very pretty in decor We loved it so much we returned for breakfast the next morning , we had the full breakfast made with Sicilian fennel sausages and home made baked beans , absolutely delicious

    what a lovely place to eat amazing Italian food, I came to visit from Italy (I live and study there), found this cute small place as soon as you go in you feel like you are back in Italy from the smell of the slami and the cheeses and all the things that you can only find in itlian local supermarket. The food was very good the service was outstanding, with polite stuff. i my self had the panino mortadela, which i very much recommend, and my partner had beautiful lasagna and closed the deal with a marvellous tiramisu.

    Lovely Italian restaurant in the style of the south. Reminded us of several places we ate on the Amalfi Coast. Location is great, plenty of parking around and serving staff are very polite and attentive. I was disappointed however that the online menu did not reflect the actual menu available. I was so looking forward to having arancini for my starter and it is no longer provided. Why? Not sure- the waitress did not elaborate. There were also some issues with the synchronisation of the main courses- ie getting both elements to the customer at the same time! This resulted in my husband being two thirds of the way through his lasagne by the time the garlic bread arrived (we think it was forgotten or not included in the order). My main was also kept warm for too long waiting for the pasta I had requested with it instead of french fries, resulting in an over cook. In fact the waitress came over and asked me if i wanted my chicken on its own as the pasta was not ready yet! I replied that I wanted the all of the ordered meal together. I assumed that the chicken would have been turned off for 5-10 mins. The pasta was just spaghetti in a watery sauce with no substance and very bland so how it took so long to cook I cannot imagine. We were both starving so did not send anything back. On reflection, we really should have. The food in essence was good ( lovely big portion of chicken) and would have been excellent if served in its entirety with a tasty pasta and not overheated. This would not stop us returning, but we would make sure that we stated very clearly next time, that we wanted all elements served well cooked (not over) and served together. This we assumed would happen, but we were wrong. My husband did get an apology from the waitress for the forgotten garlic bread so perhaps there was something amis in the kitchen that night..

    A perfectly quiet and adorable restaurant, so intimate and quaint. The food was exceptional. I had the broccoli and anchovy pasta and my god, basically licked the bowl clean. Courgette fries an absolute must also!! 10/10

    The food was absolutely delicious, some tasty veggie/vegan options and my mum had glowing things to say about the lasagne. The whole dessert menu sounded very nice so we struggled to pick - we'll have to return to work our way through the dessert menu! Lovely service and a lovely ambience, the music and the decor both made for a lovely vibe for our meal. We'll definitely be coming again!
