The service and atmosphere was excellent. Food was of good quality, simple and nice. We had the mushroom pasta which was tasty but slightly on the pricey side in my opinion. I would try the pizza the next time. It seemed it was a lot more ordered at this restaurant than the pasta.
We visited Moltobuono before a show tonight and absolutely loved it. The place felt cosy and welcoming and the staff really went out of their way to make us feel at home. This is a truly authentic Italian. The pasta was honestly some of the best we’ve ever had, the pizza freshly made and delicious too, but… the pistachio ice cream at the end was simply perfect. We left talking about when we’ll next be back - we’ll be recommending this one for some time.
Genuine italian restaurant in central Bristol. We had focaccia as an entrance (there were several options), burro and salvia pasta, and porcini pasta. Both options of pasta were delicious, clearly fresh pasta, and complex flavors. The tiramisu was also great - they offer a “dessert of the day” and pizzas too which I’m keen to try next time!
What a fantastic, genuine Italian restaurant! Lovely people, amazing authentic food cooked freshly in front of us. We turned up on a Saturday night, they were fully booked but they managed to squeeze us in. They couldn't have been nicer to us, we just had pizza but it was like being in Italy, a really lovely experience.
Oh my god. This may be in my top 3 BEST restaurants I've ever visited in my entire life. The pizzas were so big and SO yummy, we chose Moltobuono specifically for its wide variety of white base pizzas and it was incredible. Well made and delicious throughout. The staff were all fantastic and the atmosphere was so lively and wonderful. I honestly have absolutely no gripes with our experience. It is genuinely the most authentic Italian we've ever had and certainly the most delicious. I will be recommending this place to everyone. I hope it stays open and successful for many years. Definitely book a table in advance!
