The second time I've been to Guiseppes and the service was excellent both times. The food was quick and tasty. I had the melanzna parmigiana, Monkfish special and the sauteed potatoes. The melanzna parmigiana was a traditional one (not really to my taste, I prefer the unbattered version) and was tasty with battered aubergine and a rich tomato sauce. The monkfish was very nice done with courgette, cherry tomatoes, Basil and a metric ton of garlic. I love garlic so this was right up my street. The sauteed potatoes were delicious, crispy and seasoned well. Prices were slightly on the steeper side but the food was good and service excellent.
This place is a must! The food was excellent! The service was top notch and the quaint little restaurant is perfect for a nice evening out.
After a difficult start (we asked to change table as the one that they directed us to was on a room with a large, noisy group - the request was not immediately granted but in the end we were seated as we suggested near the door and then things started looking up). Really good Italian cuisine but also lovely fish dishes , great service, we did not have to wait long between courses, nice wine list by the glass or bottle. This independent (non-chain) restaurant feels a bit like an institution an a city with lots of « new trendy » places which will probably not last a couple of years.
Nice quiet Italian restaurant near the centre. Food was amazing. It was probably the best swordfish dish (as daily special) I have ever had — fresh taste of fish was kept, mixed with suitable flavour of tomato. The side mushrooms were also delicious. Enjoyed every second! A bit expensive though, but never mind as you would have such an experience. Added: I went another time and tried the monkfish, which is another daily special and is also good, although I like the swordfish better. The side potato is perfectly salted, and the Crème Brûlée is very creamy. Added again: One of the best Carbonara I’ve had outside Italy. The starter garlic bread with tomato sauce (basically Margarita) is already a meal portion, and it is very tasty.
Giuseppe's is such a good restaurant. Every time we go it's good. It's homely and welcoming and has a good buzz about it. Staff are friendly and helpful and very attentive to our 4-year-old. The food is great. Lovely pasta dishes, good Pizzas, nice chicken etc., but also a great selection of seafood. The night we went there were clams, lobster and Sardines on the menu. Good selection of wine and desserts too. It's one of our favourite places to eat in the city centre.
