8/10The sole was absolutely fantastic. My wife had the spaghetti vongole (her favourite) but unfortunately found it a bit bland.

8/10Food was excellent carpaccio di Manzo lovely but needed more rocket . Tuna tartar very large but delicious . Ravioli with spinach and seafood pasta both excellent . Second visit both times food great . Chairs in bar uncomfortable to sit very long . Sit on the bench with cushions . Would be nice to get some olives or nibbles as it’s not cheap but only if on cushions and you want to savour your cocktail . Staff very friendly even though they were busy .

10/10This is the best place for a wonderful dining experience in the area. Having a cocktail made by the amazing Katarina is a treat. And then when they bring you to your table for your food…wow!! The setting is amazing. The service is terrific. And the food is great! We will be back….often…

6/10Having enjoyed our first visit a few weeks ago we had high expectations. Sadly the restaurant did not deliver . Pre dinner drinks were small, the margaritas had to be remade and overall disappointing. The meal was ok but the veal Milanese was too salty and the salad insipid with over ripe tomatoes. But the main disappointment was the poor service. Not attentive, left waiting too long etc. We love the setting and we need a good Italian restaurant in the ‘hood. Let’s hope it was just an off day.

Thank you for your feedback and for giving us another visit after enjoying your first one. We’re truly sorry to hear that this time we didn’t meet your expectations. It’s disappointing and we apologize for the lack of attentiveness and long waits in service. This is not the experience we strive for at Gianni. We’re grateful for your kind words about the setting and your hope for a great Italian restaurant in the area. We’re addressing these issues with our team to ensure consistency in food quality and service. We’d love to make this right—please contact us directly (via email or phone on our website) so we can offer a better experience next time. We hope to prove it was just an off day and welcome you back soon!

9/10Lovely ambience. Someone has spent a fortune. Beautiful outside bar and soft sitting area. I’ve now been twice but today the service was poor. Not on the food but in bringing drinks. Three times we had to ask for a new bottle of wine BUT that happened twice. There were 6 of us and we ended up getting through three bottles. We were later charged for four. It was busy but they struggled to cope. On our first visit all ok but restaurant was much quieter. However food was really good. And we will definitely go again. Guys just sort the service out and you will have a top restaurant.
Gianni - Vale do Lobo • Owner
Thank you for your feedback and for visiting us twice! We're thrilled you love the ambience, the beautiful outside bar, and the soft seating area, and that you found the food really good. We understand it was busy, but struggling to cope is not the experience we aim for. We’re addressing staff training and organization to ensure smoother service, especially during peak times. We’d love to make this right. Looking forward to welcoming you back to a top restaurant! Gianni

9.5/10As you see I marked you down 1 star on the service. Because the service was poor because it’s not very well organised you have more than enough staff but need organised to be more attentive especially !! if you need more wine replenishing 😩 Other than that excellent food and surroundings.
Gianni - Vale do Lobo • Owner
Thank you for your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear the service felt disorganized and not attentive enough, especially with wine replenishment—that’s not the experience we aim for. We appreciate your kind words about the excellent food and surroundings! We’re addressing staff coordination and training to ensure a more attentive experience moving forward. Please reach out directly so we can make your next visit even better. Hope to see you soon!

8.5/10Nice place, tasty food. Tiny portions of pasta. Tbf they did bring both me and my 12 year old a second portion after complaining
Gianni - Vale do Lobo • Owner
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the nice place and tasty food. We’re sorry to hear the pasta portions felt small, but we’re happy we could address it by bringing second portions for you and your 12-year-old. We’ll review our portion sizes to ensure a more satisfying experience. Hope to see you back for another tasty visit! Gianni
