Bellissimo Ristorante in Richmond upon Thames

The food is very nice, lovely.Unfortunately we can’t tell the same about some members of the staff.There is a, with all due respect, mature woman who is very nice and I and my partner are always happy to go there when she is in as we feel very very well served.But sometimes there is another younger woman there, who is not that nice, sometimes is rude, doesn't offer or has those little details which make you feel good and well-served.This situation with this woman has happened more than once, so from now on we will definitively avoid😥going to Valentino’s when she is in.

Had a really great all round experience at Valentino's on Valentines day just past.A friendly greeting on arrival and quickly shown to our table which had a great view of the open view kitchen, which for any food fan is always an added bonus!They were quick to take a drinks order, and go over the menu with us. The wine we went for was lovely and really affordable. The food menu itself was a special one just for Valentines day. It was refreshingly different to the stereotypical Italian restaurant menu you normally see, with a selection of veggie, fish and meat options to choose from! I enjoyed a beautiful veal ragu, and my girlfriend had a lovely chicken fillet dish with a great shiitake mushroom sauce and a creamy mash - well presented, tasty and hearty food! Our dessert - a limoncello and pomegranate panna cotta - was definitely the star of the show and a great end to a lovely meal.All in all it was a great experience, priced reasonably given the quality of the food, efficient and friendly service, and will definitely go back again!

My daughter has been nagging me to try this little gem. Well tonight we visited. What an absolute diamond of a restaurant. The food was mouth wateringly delicious. The service was above and beyond. I cannot recommend visiting Twickenham’s little gold mine. Thank you

OMG! Me and my boyfriend where just passing by this place looking for a place to go for diner. I don't usually go to Italian restaurants and I used to work in one and I'm Spanish. The smell coming out of it was unbelievable so we walked back, and was greated by a lovely lady. The food is unbelievable, the potions are huge and the price is really reasonable.Only downfall... The don't do vegan.Will I come back?Hell yes!

Fantastic service, quick ordering and lovely reception from the staff. Lots of choice on the menu, good portion sizes and tasty! Great music on too. I felt like I was in Rome!

Lovely staff and delicious food! It made for a wonderful birthday dinner!

Had take away sandwiches from there today, the staff was really nice and made a vegetarian option for us as there was non displayed. I had a chicken sandwich as well and both taste good. We tried the chocolate croissant which was okay as it was a little dry. Staff was really nice and kind.

First time having this and probably won’t go back to the hot food. first of all the mashed potato was really good and creamy which I liked but the Lamb shank was so over cooked it tasted like leather, as you can see from the picture it’s so chewy and dry. The Portuguese tart was also decent, shame that the lamb was so awful.

This place is soOO good How yummy does this look Foccacia stuffed with mozzarella tomatoes roasted peppers and salad MMM

Amazing, we ordered the burrada with Crostini which was delicious. I wanted a pasta with seafood and they made it for me even though it wasn’t in the menu, it was super tasty. My husband ordered the calzone which he loved and at the end we had an amazing dessert which it wasn’t overly sweet!
