I must have walked past Cafe Citta several times and never noticed it until last week when walking past with a colleague. I saw it and remembered that I'd seen it as #1 on TripAdvisor so thought we'd give it a try... we weren't disappointed. The meal we had was without doubt the best Italian food I've had outside of...

Service was good. Pizza was just unbelievable. The ingredients were fresh. We had a bottle of proseco each and the proseco was very very good given the price. We managed to get the only table available outside. We spent 3 fantastic hours or so eating drinking and smoking outside. It was also great value.

The minute you walk in the door you know you are in for a great meal. The aromas are wonderful. The food is even better. The Caprese salad was fresh and the pizza was thin crust and tasty. The wine list was reasonable and the staff was friendly. Don't settle for a meal at a familiar chain. Try this and... More

I expected to be "wowed' when I visited Cafe Citta after all of the 5 star reviews. And yes, it is very good but not quite excellent. The food was lovely, I had a pizza which was nice but a tad salty and too garlicky. My partner had a chicken dish which was apparently delicious. The service was quite good.... More

We called in here as we are fed up of the chain restaurants serving up the same bland food and over priced wine. The service was exemplary, the food was stunning. Very generous portions, full of flavour and the wine was just as good. It's not the biggest restaurant you'll ever visit, but it is intimate, friendly and the staff... More

A short review to get the point across.... This is a great place. Great food and so refreshing to get away from the chain restaurants round the city centre. We were a large party and service was excellent too! I just selfishly hope it doesn't get too popular that we can't get in again!

A great venue, small but intimate. Good service and really tasty food. Would recommend the rolled pizzas. They are delicious.

We – two couples – thoroughly enjoyed my birthday dinner here last Thursday. Upon arrival we thought we might be a bit cramped in this fairly small restaurant, but this was not the case. Moreover, the three courses most of us had were superb – my mozzarella and tomato starter was as succulent as any I have had in Italy,... More

Been to this restaurant a couple of times now. Food freshly cooked and delicious. Service is also great, friendly and helpful. Pizza base crispy and toppings fresh and tasty. Last time I ate here, the dish I wanted wasn't on the menu. The waiter heard me say that I was disappointed so chef offered to cook it for me.... I... More
