With a…read morereally nice atmosphere and fairly cheap prices, open fire in the winter and walls entirely adorned with theatre posters or signed photos of various actors from over the years, this is an excellent bar/restaurant which is really worth a look in. I've frequented it many times, perhaps a few too many whilst I was still at college, and the late night pizzas really are quite a selling point - all night they'll serve the traditional and very high quality pizzas to their gradually drunker clientelle. You can take your pick with seating - there's a comfy room with sofas, and the aforementioned fire, to the left of the bar, or else the main room with the poster wallpapered walls has tables, chairs and benches. Without fail getting a seat is always a bit of an art when I've been here, but that's more part of Renatos' charm rather than a failing. Come here more than once and you'll see the same staff - it's a closely run family business. They also own the restaurant across the road (which has the same name), which is a far more traditional restaurant affair and has a wider variety on the menu than just pizza. Both sides of the road are a must.

This quaint Italian restaurant is situated just off the bottom of Gloucester Road, on Zetland Road…read more It has a really good menu and I've always been very impressed with the food and the service. It's just got a really good, welcoming atmosphere and they make you feel at home and at ease as you devour their Italian delights. The menu is wide ranging, and the prices differ according to the quality/rarity of the meal you choose - I would highly recommend the salmon, which is cooked in a delicious sauce, mixing together the unlikely combination of brandy, cream and tomato. This at the more pricey end though, setting you back £9.50, but I absolutely think it's worth it for the quality. With a good bar as well, this restaurant ticks all the boxes - round the meal off with an irish coffee and this'll be a meal really worth the money.

I've been to La Piazza 1 a couple of times since moving to Fishponds 3 months ago. It's situated…read morejust off the high street on the corner of The Straights. What you get is a great value for money Italian restaurant with excellent service. I wouldn't call it fine dining but it's not trying to be and you can not go wrong for the price. The last time I went was a Tuesday night and the fact that it was tricky to find a table for 4 of us at 6:30pm on a Tuesday speaks volumes for how popular it is. We did have to wait a little while for food on that occasion but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt judging by the good service normally received and how busy it was that night. Food wise you can expect all of the usual suspects on the Italian menu along with fish and steak which as previously mentioned are all very reasonable in price. La Piaza 1 also appears to cater well for kids judging by the number of family's eating there. All in all, its a great value restaurant if you fancy a last minute bite to eat out or i'd also recommend it as a good starting point to eat before hitting a pub or 2 on the weekend.

I walked in here, and I most definitely liked. The walls were stuck with hundreds of postcards, and there were what looked like rattan wine canisters almost completely covering the ceiling. The postcards are most fascinating things to look at while you're sitting there waiting for your food. These touches give the place such character. The menu here is so vast - they do pastas, pizzas, fish, chicken, veal, steaks and salads! Something for everyone! Their starter of Calamari Alla Giuliana; squid in a tomato, peppers & chilli sauce was something I liked, but their Calamari Fritti; deep fried squid was rather chewy and not so nice. Their pizzas are good too, they are quite big and you can size them up by ordering any of them as a Familiare, which are 12 to 14 inches! This place continued being my favourite Italian, until one day I ordered the Risotto Vegetariano and was so disappointed when I took my first bite. Weirdly, the rice they used wasn't risotto rice, but just plain rice. I ate my meal in confusion and should have asked them about it but I somehow didn't. Since that day I haven't been back there, because I can't understand why an Italian restaurant would serve me risotto, that wasn't risotto. Still good for pizzas and the rest of the grub though. Just maybe don't order the risotto.

Our order was taken very quickly and I was impressed by the range of dishes on the menu; it is definitely a cut above the usual Italian restaurant fare. I had the Fregula di Frutti di Mare to start, which was not at all the seafood soup that I was expecting but more like a watery risotto. It was a bit too creamy for my taste and I wished they'd mentioned that on the menu, but there we are. For mains I thought I had ordered a penne with squid ink sauce, but when it came I was dismayed to find that I'd actually ordered something that was covered in cheese and cream sauce, which being lactose intolerant I just couldn't eat. However, after my profuse apologies for mis-reading the menu, they very quickly replaced it with the squid ink number (it was the spaghetti, not the penne!) so full marks to them for doing that. I liked the ambience of the place too, from the clichéd wax-encrusted wine bottle candle holders to the quirky decorative touches and pictures. I'll keep this place bookmarked for my next visit to Bristol.

Our group of 4 was just super hAngry! Our original dinner plans for the Hatchett Pub fell thru and…read morewe came here as it was just up the street and our hostess said she could give us a table as long as we could leave before 7:30pm. Since it was just coming up to 5:30 pm we were absolutely fine with that time limitation! We started off with a half Garlic-bread and half-cheese starter. Really liked this, especially the cheese used. Also got a bottle of the house red and then I got the pancetta pizza (substituting olives for corn), my brother got the 4 seasons pizza and then the other two people in our group got Pasta. Since at that time we were the only ones at the restaurant, food came out super quick and we all just inhaled it. I am so glad I substituted the olives for the corn, as the olives used had a lovely taste! The ham used on my brother's pizza was also super delicious. The pizza crust was just the right amount of crispy and well risen dough. I enjoyed the sweet tangy taste of the BBQ sauce used in the pancetta pizza very much and we all just totally polished off the food, however pizza size is massive enough that 2 not very hungry people can totally split it. Total 5 stars however reserved for their Tiramisu- in one word: YUM! It was perfection and I'd come back here again just for that treat - rich, creamy and decadent with each bite being super delicious. Service was friendly and so not sure why they aren't rated higher on Yelp. We almost decided not to go cause of the indifferent yelp reviews, but hunger won out and super glad we went in the end, as no complaints about the food or service. Total bill for the 4 of us was £100 and change (included a 10% service charge) and we thought that was pretty decent as we'd had a 3 course meal plus a bottle of wine. I'd definitely return for the Tiramisu! Note - Banksy's Love Cheat is located on the side of the building right next to this restaurant! Yelp 166/ 2019
