Cafe Bellisimmo - Richmond Upon Thames

The food was good, but it's the second time they have tried to overcharge us by adding extra items to the bill. The first time we thought it was a mistake, but now we are skeptical. We will not be returning, which is a shame.

After attending an exhilarating but chilly and rainy game at Quins, I was craving a comforting bowl of hot, creamy pasta. I was pleased to find that the linguine with salmon was absolutely delicious, with a subtle touch of saffron. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the service was top-notch. I will definitely be returning. I believe the restaurant is now called Bella Vita.

I went to this restaurant on Saturday after the rugby game without a reservation. Despite having to wait outside for a while, they were very accommodating and were able to seat us. The pizzas and pasta were great, they had a good selection of beer on tap, and a lovely bottle of Valpolicella. Thank you for being so accommodating even though it was late in the evening.

Visited here on Friday night with two other couples after a long travel down from The north. The food was REALLY good, a decent menu, very well executed, with great services and perfectly reasonable price! We enjoyed it so much we booked for the following night, again fully delivered. Pizzas were excellent, pasta excellent, service excellent, great restaurant!

We arrived late afternoon before the Saturday rush. Very friendly staff prepping for post 2nd lockdown service. They still had time to chat about recent struggles but were very positive about the future. This is the first meal here for me although the morning coffee is excellent. We ordered a pizza each and a bottle of very good house red syrah. I could see the kitchen chef rolling and cutting dough in front of the gas pizza oven. The pizza has lovely toppings, were as thin as you could make and very tasty. With an extra large wine and Calypso coffee the bill came to £53. A reasonable price for friendly staff, a nice vibe and good food.
