Overpriced and very average food. Very pushy staff and they make you order too much food. Dark, gloomy and unappealing atmosphere. Would not recommend…

Not sure where to really start with this review. Had dinner at Siderno Caff for my mums birthday. The manager was lovely and really lifted the atmosphere of the place however we did encounter a few problems during our meal. Firstly, we received bruschetta with cheese despite asking for it without.. No biggie, however the server took the cheese off before setting the same dish back on the table. I can’t comment on the other meals but I had the spaghetti marinara and my husband, the spaghetti bolognese. Both pasta dishes lacked flavouring and needed quite a bit of salt added. The waiter started clearing our plates while some of us were still eating which just made us feel so rushed. For dessert a few of us ordered ice cream only to find a hair deep half way through eating it. My husband notified the manager who attempted to joke about it, telling us that it was from the factory and not the restaurant. Overall this Caff has alot of potential to be a really good Italian restaurant unfortunately, I’m unsure I’ll be back.
Sadly our experience at this local restaurant was not the best. After taking a mouthful of my meal I discovered that I was eating plastic. We reported this to the wait staff and then the Manager. Unfortunately the service from the Manager was really disappointing. Given this could have had serious consequences, the Manager dismissed our complaint and explained that this happens when the kitchen staff open takeaway containers near the food. He was far from accommodating and honestly left us speechless with his lack of care or concern. There was no effort to make the situation right and this means we won’t return. I would prefer to spend my money where customers are actually welcomed. Unfortunately I can’t comment on the food as this really detracted from any enjoyment. Corkage was expensive and meal prices have increased substantially since we last went.
Used to be a fave, a great reliable Italian meal. But last night was highly disappointing and we wont be back. One of us had a big shard of hard plastic in her meal, that she discovered once it was already in her mouth. Both wait staff and manager/owner completely brushed it off and actually walked away whilst we were complaining. Their explanation was less that satisfactory and had no concern for the fact the potential harm. Reading reviews it appears its not the first time it has happened! My meal was garlic prawns. The prawns were very over cooked and rubbery. They bowl was half full with just melted butter with hardly any garlic and no chilli as described in the menu. Very disappointed.
Calabrase, and The prosciutto pizzas are both mind blowing, amazing crust, compliments to the pizza chef! The gnocchi is also awesome, good food and good atmosphere.
Delightful staff and even better food. It’s the real thing here.The special when we visited recently was a Duck Confit. Unusual to order this at an Italian Restaurant, but seriously it was superb. Tender, moist and beautifully presented.Other dishes were the pasta and a vegetarian dish. Good range of wine and lovely deserts.It’s always nice to meet the owner-manager and to talk about his home-town; in Sicily. Great conversation.Recommended.
I ordered from Siderno this evening on Uber eats and it was delicious! The spaghetti was perfectly cooked which sometimes isnt the case in take away pasta! The garlic bread was really good too
Being half Italian, I am a VERY fussy critic when eating at an Italian restaurant. I joined a friend at Sidernos for lunch and we had chosen a pasta dish and the fried calamari. Both dishes were superbly cooked and flavoured. Pasta is a very tricky dish to please the majority with. Most of us enjoy the pasta just cooked through. Some like it well cooked and some people’s idea of al dente is almost crunchy noodles! Well as far as I’m concerned, the chef got ours perfect. I’m sorry to see the reviews below. Maybe a different chef? In regards to ‘dips’. True Italian dips ARE olive oil based if you do a little research. We were served the whole time by the actual owner himself and he was very friendly and attentive. I will definitely be going back for more….I even ordered a dish to take home for dinner!
