Buongiorno E Buonasera - Food Point in Oxford

I don't know where to even begin!! This restaurant is by far my most favorite restaurant I’ve ever went to, it was super clean and looked super cozy, the staff were so friendly it felt like I was home surrounded with family ❤️, the food was absolutely delicious, I ordered Lasagna and I guess based on the picture you can tell how delicious it was 😍❤️ I highly highly HIGHLY recommend this place, the prices were acceptable compared to the portion you get. I can’t wait to go back there again.Perfect to go there with the family, but even better to go there on a date.

The staff were extremely busy (swamped with pre-theatre guests), but still gets 5stars!It's a small restaurant, but the food was incredible! The staff were friendly and helpful, we were seated during a very busy period without a booking, and the food was served very promptly (considering how busy the restaurant was).After discovering 'Pinsa', I doubt 'Pizza' will ever be the same.We ordered;~Lasagne Bolognaise= 5+ stars~Cannelloni Ricotta&Spinach= 4 of 5 stars~Friarielli (Sourdough Pinsa)=4.25 of 5 stars~Cappuccino+extra espresso= 3 of 5 stars~Flat White (coffee)= 4 of 5 stars~Bona Aranciata (carbonated orange soft drink)= 5+ stars~ Service:We were not greeted or seated by staff (we seated ourselves at the only table available).We had to go to the counter to place our order. A staff member brought us some cutlery over, prior to bringing the food/drinks.*Note: Our food was served very promptly. I was notably impressed.*No staff checked-back on us after the food was delivered.A floor manager(?) briefly asked how our meal was, as we were leaving.I personally prefer this informal arrangement, but know that some do not.I was a bit unsure of how to proceed initially, and nobody gave directions contrary to how we proceeded.~ Portions:The non-pinsa portions were small for the larger appetite, but I left comfortably full (lasagne and half a Pinsa).The flavours/ingredients were amazing, and a welcome change to the mainstream options.~ The Pinsa (not-a-pizza):Could possibly have benefitted from more toppings (some of the sourdough was dry), but using the dry sections with my lasagne bypassed the situation.~ Soft drink of note:The bottled orange soft drink was beautiful. I highly recommend to anyone who is sick of Fanta/Tango/sanpellogrino/orangina monopolising the orange soft drink market. This little beut exposes just how rubbish the mainstream options are!~ The hot drinks:Come in small cups, and in all honesty, not the best coffee of type I have had (I like very strong coffee).~ Prices:Were rather high, but to break away from the mainstream mush, I wouldn't say 'too high'.Lasagne, Cannelloni, Pinsa, Cappuccino(+espresso shot), and a soft drink bottle came to £44.21.~ Wheelchair Access:Access for slim wheelchairs 'should be' OK. The entrance is a single door on flat ground. The door opens outwards on the left side. Inside the door, there is a small table ahead, with the counter running inwards along the left.It is a small restaurant, with a fairly narrow walkway.There are a few small tables outside, which could be quite pleasant in the warm weather.~ Parking:In Oxford?... Is a pricey proposition.We parked at the Westgate centre, and walked across the city centre.There is a car park (Worcester Street) which is much nearer (there is a fixed rate for P&D between 20:00 and 08:00am).My reviews typically focus on the negatives(?).If I mention specific positives, they should really stand out.I would definitely eat here again, and definitely (enthusiastically) recommend to anyone who enjoys Italian/Romana cuisine.I just wish that I lived locally to eat here more often!My overall visit, for company of 2, and during a very hectic pre-theatre rush, and bad weather, considering all things, is still 5 stars (4.8 if being harsh).

One of my favourite places to eat in Oxford, and definitely the best for pizza. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food and drink, and way more soul than any of the countless chains Oxford is full of. I usually find pizzas without tomato sauce pretty disappointing but the artichoke one from here is Also worthy of note is the olive oil out on the tables, it is delicious.

Got caught in a bit of a downpour and ducked in for a late lunch. Fantastic! The dough on the pizza is excellent, and we also had a very nice salad with tomatoes and kalamata olives (plus grated Romano cheese). One pizza and a shared small salad was perfect for two of us.

Authentic Italian Pizzeria. If you are in Oxford, this restaurant is a must visit.

Went early evening last night and it was amazing, did everything they could to squeeze us in and the pizza was one of the best I have ever tasted. This fully authentic gem will be visited again soon.

Probably one of the best gluten-free pizzas I’ve ever had! Tasted like a normal pizza and was really big!The regular pizzas were great with very fluffy dough.The service was amazing, super friendly and fast.We will definitely be going back.

Had one of the best social evenings in Oxford here! The food is so wonderful and the staff are so accommodating. The ingredients and the quality of the dough is what makes the food the great. We had the loveliest evening and everyone enjoyed their pizzas and wine. It is really nice to sit outside and watch the world go past. Really great food for the price.

My friend and I were passing through Oxford for the day and felt like Italian food and I feel lucky that we did because Bbuona was like a hidden gem. It felt like we could've been in Italy! The atmosphere was so uplifting and the staff were so friendly and positive like human rays of sunshine. The food was delicious and I regret being too full to eat more!

One of the best pizzas I’ve ever had , not a big fan of pizza usually but ended up staying for this family run restaurant. Pizza is great and the wine selection excellent. Dessert was tasty with a coffee and the aperitif finished the night brilliantly. Highly recommended as it is priced fair and far cheaper then any other independent restaurant in the area. 😀
