Dog friendly in the conservatory. Delicious food and great service. We arrived just as the kitchen was closing but the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating. Will definitely visit again.
Well we finally made it to Vesuvio Pizzeria in the end! We have been trying and saying we would come here for months and I honestly wish we had as the food in here was sensational! We've been away to Italy a couple of times, Venice and Milan to be exact, and pizzas there was incredible. The pizza here was certainly on par with this as well and it brought back some really fond memories! We highly recommend Vesuvio for the ultimate place to eat out for customer service! My Moretti beer order came in seconds, somehow also as well! Somebody was clearly listening to our food order ! We left feeling stuffed and very fulfilled, ended up taking home our leftovers as well for seconds next day also!
Excellent service, lovely atmosphere and great food. Only dropped a star as my dessert was not great, clearly bought in so not the fault of the chef who delivered on the two courses before that. I have been advised that the tiramisu is nice so maybe try that or the ice cream or sorbets.
We have been to this restaurant a few times now and went again yesterday evening - my son was back from uni and asked if we could go there to eat. We were looking forward to returning and once again had a wonderful time. The food is absolutely beautiful, the service is quick, polite and friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed and warm. Every time we go there we feel like we've stepped out of real life and are on holiday for a few happy hours. Thanks for a lovely time, see you soon!
We had the most amazing dinner in Versuvio recently. The food was exceptional and really tasty, staff were so lovely too! The atmosphere inside was really homely and warming. A gem Italian restaurant in Tilehurst, will be visiting again soon! Book to guarantee a table
