What a wonderful time we had enjoying Sunday lunch at Baldovino it started with the warm welcome we received through to the amazing deserts and coffee. The meals were amazing. Delicious and authentic I can highly recommend this restaurant as true and authentic Italian meals but please leave room for dessert
A family owned and run restaurant that serves great quality Italian food in a lovely setting. The staff are always friendly, welcoming and provide attentive service with a smile. We keep coming back and every dish I have ordered is always a least a 9/10. It is BYO wine, but the wine list is also of a high standard.
I have been here once before so when friends invited us to join them for dinner we were happy to visit Baldovino's again.
The restaurant is cosy and the staff were great, so helpful and served you more as a friend rather than waitress.
The food was very good, we tried a number of different things. The mussels for entree were delightful and the sauce was rich, garlicky and flavoursome! Get some extra bread so you can dip it in the sauce and soak up the beautiful flavours. The caprese salad was alright but not wow factor and certainly not the worth the price we paid. Both my partner and my pastas both cooked nicely.
BYO so bonus points there.
This restaurant has been in Thornbury a good 10 years or so and was the first fine dining restaurant in the area. We were a large group and shared entrees comprising of Brushetta Mista, Salt & Pepper Calamari, fried whitebait, Arancinis, Polpettine, and the Sausage and mushrooms. They were all good and highly recommend the Sausage and Mushrooms and the Arancini. For mains I ordered the special 'Spaghetti al Nero' which is basically Spaghetti infused with Squid Ink with saffron and seafood, absolutely a delicious meal. I tried the Seafood Soup Special that someone else ordered and it was also very good. The service was also excellent as the staff are very knowledgeable.
Fantastic upmarket family italian restaurant, very authentic with everything explained to you by the attentive staff who are mostly family too. Lovely decor, delicious food and welcoming staff. !
Amazing experience! The food was incredible and we all still can’t get over how amazing the gnocchi was!! The owner and amazing waitress Azzura made us feel as though we were apart of the family and were so accommodating and hospitable. Again, thank you for a wonderful, authentic Italian experience!
This is a great place to go if you want authentic, wood-fired pizza with some of the freshest dough you will ever meet. I like the way the restaurant is not trying to be anything within its decor and instead lets the food do the talking. The staff are really friendly, but it felt a little awkward when they started closing at 9pm on a Friday night, wiping down tables around us. It would have been great for them to come around and let us know "last drinks" or something, so we didn't feel like we were overstaying our welcome.
Amazing food and even better service! Loved our experience with the family there :)
Last night we visited Baldovino for dinner. The food was really, really good. The three of us had different meals and we all raved about the taste, quality and amount of food. The size of the meals would ensure that you did not leave hungry. When the flounder was put in front of me I thought that I would not get through it .... but it was really really nice. You can see that this was a family restaurant by the staff, we were made to feel very welcome and able to have a good talk and joke with them.
Great night had by all ... THANKS FOR THE EXPERIENCE
The food was amazing , excellent service will definitely be going back again! Highly recommend
