Top 10 Best Bistro in Bridgend

“An absolutely top notch Sunday lunch. Had the beef and not disappointed. Very good serving size as well for the money. Think it was £15. Highly recommended and will return”

“We had 3 mouth-watering courses at this traditional, rustic Italian restaurant in Bridgend. Bellissimo! Such a delightful mix of fresh ingredients and excellent Italian service. Straight away we were made to feel welcome. The decor is fabulous and the ambiance is lovely, cosy & relaxing. The menu is not extensive but what they do is sublime, tasty and of exceptional quality. To start ... Crispy Squid Steamed Mussels In the middle … Spaghetti Meatballs Classic Bolognese with a cheeky side order of garlic bread with mozzarella and finally … Baked Vanilla Cheesecake x 2 Accompanied by … Montepulciano & Moretti I would recommend to anyone who appreciates fine quality food in relaxed surroundings. FINAL THOUGHT: Go check it out - you won’t be disappointed.”

“Lovely meal tonight. We found this place by chance. So glad we did! Food and service superb. Staff went above and beyond. Food was delicious! We had a £14.95 starter and main menu. Prawn cocktail, salmon gravadlax, pork loin in pepper sauce, piri piri chicken served with saute potatoes and veg. Food was delicious!”

“We were a large group celebrating a few family birthdays. The food was great and the staff took great care of us. Not easy with 20 people but well done.”

“Four of us went for a tapas dinner which was absolutely spot-on! The wine list, cocktail and food menu had lots of choice and the prices were great. The décor is fabulous, and the staff were friendly and attentive. We had a nice table in the window, the order was taken quickly, and the food tasted delicious. We had olives (succulent) and bread as a starter. Then we each picked 2 dishes from the tapas menu. My favourites were the pan-fried chicken livers, Montbru garrotxa ( goats cheese with fig relish) and the crispy sesame chicken with honey & bbq glaze. They also had my current favourite wine on the wine list! Bonus. So after Espresso Martini’s it was a bottle of the delicious Spanish red ‘The Guv’nor’. This tapas restaurant is a must for people living and visiting Bridgend. We’ll definitely return when we visit again next year. - - #reviewer #lacochina #lovemyjob #guvnor #tapas #redwine #supportindependent #restaurant #foodexperience #bridgend #localbusiness #wales #familycatchup”
