Lovely setting on the sea front The front server didn’t even know what time it was when we arrived and was confused The food wasn’t restaurant style I had a steak which wasn’t cooked well and was fatty , the mushrooms were totally over done and greasy the salad was poor and the chips were the same as take away chip shop chips , very poor standard Having said the restaurant looks nice and maybe the rest of the menu is good I’m only judging from one meal

On a cold, grey windy August day, it was a warm, sunny greeting from the folks in Pinello. Bloody Mary drinks, large glasses of red, bruschetta starters, cod & chips, pollo potentina, risotto spinachi then a chocolate brownie and ice cream with three spoons were all consumed with much lip smacking and sighs of contentment. Delicious food, beautifully presented with care and attention to detail, friendly efficient service, it all contributes to a happy occasion.

We are seated indoors, which is preferable as it is really windy along the promenade this afternoon. We are given the menues and after a few minutes we have ordered both food and drink. One of us opts for Linguine Carbonara but the rest of us fancy one of the Chef's Specials, Fusili Salmone with broccoli, smoked salmon and mushrooms in a creamy sauce. The portions are genorous and particularly the Carbonara is well cooked and creamy but the Fusili Salmone lacks a bit of the creamy sauce. There could definitely have been more of that. The amount of smoked salmon, broccoli and mushrooms is decent. Overall the food is alright but needs more salt!! None of us can understand why all restaurants are so afraid of adding salt to their preparation of dishes these days?! It needs to be a certain amount of salt added from the start as it adds to flavour of the meal, it cannot all be added afterwards according to personal taste. The meal was OK but nothing special.

We went before a visit to the theatre. It was relatively quiet but still had a welcoming feel , and of course it comes with sea views. Food was good in both quality and quantity . We will definitely return.

The food is delicious, the cost is great, even had a 50% discount on pizzas. The cherry on the cake is that the service is fabulous, friendly, attentive but never over the top. The location and watching the sunset just adds to it. Recommend a visit.

Perfect food, lovely location overlooking seafront and a lovely welcome from the front of house. Food is Italian and offers a good selection including catering for dietary requirements. Mix of pasta, pizza , fish, meat and salads loads of choice and both our fish and risotto were well cook and delicious. Waiter friendly and attentive, thanks for a lovely meal .

A warm welcome and great food. The menu is just right, not too long. Generous portions & good quality. Any extras requested were delivered with no fuss. Great ambience and beautiful sea view! Great service, fast enough but not rushed. Staff attentive but no too much. Just the right balance of everything. I’ll definitely be back! Bellissimo
