I really enjoyed the atmosphere of Zia Nina's, appreciating the rugged wooden tables and chairs. How many times have you been p*ed off by a wobbly table whilst attempting to enjoy a meal? The tables were adorned with glass bottles of varying dimensions as candle holders - not unusual but I prefer them to a poxy tea light candle. Service was excellent, our drinks order was taken straight away and the waiters continued to check on us (also the sign of a profitable restaurant!). Menu - wide range of pasta dishes, chicken, steak, numerous starters and side dishes that you would expect in an Italian. I had the Pollo Bosco (around £11) which was essentially a generous portion of chicken breast with a creamy white wine sauce with garlic and mushroom. The meal was also served with cubes of fried potato, green beans and mushroom. I also enjoyed the house red, which was extremely drinkable ;) although I could only have the one glass as designated driver. All in all a very pleasant evening and I would definitely return soon to try something more adventurous!

The menu is also more limited than it has been in the past. In the past Pepe's has been of a fine standard - never outstanding, but good enough and enjoyable, however I would not now go back after my last experience. There were plans for the restaurant to be sold in the summer of 2008, and after the sale fell through the standard has rapidly deteriorated. Hopefully it will still be sold to someone who wants to put the time and effort into making this a decent place to eat.

As a lover of Italian food, it came as no surprise that I absolutely loved La Trattoria. Tucked…read moreaway at the far end of Talbot Road, everything about La Trattoria is genuine; from the authentic ambience of the restaurant itself to the food that graces the plate. Having been there a number of times, I have had chance to sample a variety of dishes. The pasta was gorgeous, the meat was cooked to perfection and the fish was so fresh it almost jumped off the table, but despite the quality of these dishes, there are certain ones that stand out like an overeater at a buffet table - most notably the calamari. This dish is the stuff of legend and is proof that you don't have pay to go to Michelin star restaurants to find culinary excellence. Besides the regular menu, there is also a great value lunchtime menu that offers two courses for £9.99 with a glass of wine thrown in for good measure. What's more, they have recently started up a take-away service, which means you can now enjoy this authentic Italian food in the comfort of your own home. While the speed of service can be hit and miss at times, they can often be forgiven as the restaurant is frequently fully booked and the friendly staff clearly work hard to serve everyone as quickly and efficiently as possible. All in all, if you love Italian food, you will love La Trattoria.
