After having a little trouble finding it we had a fabulous evening ... The calamari was excellent and specials well explained and delicious - though we would have been happier with a slightly more generous portion. With a little more care we could have reduced our bill and stuck to the 'set menu' and still been very happy. With drinks... More

Great staff and great sommelier. Excellent food cooked as in Italy (where we have had many memorable food experiences). Friendly and cosy. And very reasonable prices! More

Hadn't been here since it was called Ar Vicoletto: the décor is still the same but the food has improved beyond recognition. There is very little to say except that this is Italian food as it is cooked in Italy: great service, great food decent prices. I will return often. More

This is a small restaurant, with very attentive staff, and great food. We had 3 different starters - pate, courgette + tomato, and a calamari - all were delicious. For main we had 2 different dishes - fish and a home cooked pasta with meat and truffle oil - again all delicious. Unfortunately we never made dessert as we were... More

From the starters... More

Service , food and surrounding so amazing. The food here is out of this world . I could have everything on the menu. Food is cooked with passion you can Tate it. So nice for a romantic dinner for two or great fun for a group. The place is tiny only holds about 20 people . I can't wait for... More

On the strength of other reviews, I called in for a an early evening meal as the restaurant prepared to receive a large (for a room of this size) party. The word that comes to mind when thinking of this place is: genuine. A very enjoyable and authentic experience from the bruschetta starter to the pasta main and the delicious... More

We came here on a cold Sunday night at the end of February, and from the moment we entered we were made to feel welcome by the very pleasant, professional waiter - didn't catch his name but it was so good to see 'real Italians' working there as so many so-called Italian restaurants in Ireland are anything but.(Pineapple&Ham pizza anyone?)...

We were shown the fresh pasta for the day, my husband had the ragu and I had the seafood ravioli. It was soo tasty! It's a very small and welcoming place with great... More
