Harden's survey result
Summary
Opened in 2005 by three Italian amici, this “very friendly” outfit features a seasonal, purposefully not extensive menu that “uses a lot of authentic Italian produce” (though arguably “it’s actually more Sicilian” in result); while “not cheap”, the victuals are “really good” by all accounts.

Summary
In the “culinary wasteland” that is chain-plagued Cardiff, this authentic Italian indie has gathered quite a local following and regulars applaud its hospitable approach. Your treatment can depend on how well you’re known however: one first-timer observed “the owner doted at length on certain tables while we were frequently passed by and made to wait”.
Summary
“A rare stand-out in homogenised Cardiff” – a “small” and “extremely accommodating” haunt offering “obliging service” and food with a “true taste of Italy”.
For 30 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
