Reviews of Calabrisella Canton
M. S.
Fantastic restaurant, conveniently located near Gray street car park. Helpful and friendly staff serving outstanding food. Very clean inside with good provisions for social distancing, helping to keeping both customers and staff safe. I will visit here regularly, a very authentic taste of Italy. highly recommended, even if you're just after a coffee while browsing along Cowbridge road.
P. R.
Amazing little Italian restaurant.
Nice choices of Vegan Pizzas.
The pizzas are a really good size and really tasty
A.
Food and service was good, didn't need to create a reservation even though it was fairly busy. Calzone was fresh and tasty, big enough for 2 to share. Prices are good, recommended for lunch.
S. t. D.
I really liked the food however, a lot of the food that is marked as vegetarians is not.
They had a fish dish with a v symbol next to it as well as several Italian cheeses that cant be vegetarian. I like it but it's an issue
R. P.
Excellent local Italian restaurant with authentic dishes at great prices. Specials menu always worth checking out with constantly changing and very interesting dishes. Alternatively, fresh pasta and pizza with simple, fresh ingredients never fails to satisfy. They also do traditional Sicilian arincini on the menu, worth a try!
Personally I love the mixed bruchetta to start and the Calabrisela Pizza. Dessert are also well worth keeping room for! Alternatively they have a gelateria just down the road if preferred.
M. R.
Nice pizza, authentic and tasty. Much better than Dominos or Piuzza Hut. But there's something missing from the pizza making it the perfect pizza. But I still liked it and its worth a visit, Cafe Cita still the best Italian in Cardiff, but this place is decent
A. R.
Very nice food and welcomed our booking at short notice. They were able to adapt the recipes for my wife who can't eat peppers and my young daughter who doesn't like anything too spicy or herby
O.
Very friendly service i had a pizza was probably the best pizza I have had in a long time they also have a lovely desert menu and you can also have a beer here with your food would highly recommend for anyone
D.
Great local Italian restaurant with great choice of authentic food & interesting specials. Pizzas, Pasta & most main dishes very large so make sure you come hungry! They also have a decent selection of proper Italian Gelato flavours 😁
P.
Authentic Italian eatery filled with charm, good food and passion. I will definitely return in the very near future!
I had the Mare pizza and the tiramisu for dessert.
Da iawn! 🇮🇹🏴
A.
Best pizza in Wales!! From the outside you see only 3 tables but there are much more inside + at the first floor. I like to eat pizza and here you will eat the best pizza in Wales. I've tried multiple Italian restaurants but this one has touched my heart with a real pizza Margherita!
A. D.
As always best experience, asked the waitress to bring 2 desserts of her choice and she didn't disappoint! Highly recommend to anyone, their main menu is incredible.
G. R.
Great pizza..nice lunchtime place for an informal good meal..
T. F.
Great food, low prices. Some waitresses can be a bit dry on some days. Nonetheless, strongly recommend.
C. S.
Lovely and cosy restaurant, tasty food and friendly staff. I recommend to everyone. I would like to come back again and again 🙂
p. b.
Really good, authentic food. Great value for money.
A. B.
Lovely food , first class service, but its shame they only have a small vegan menu and no vegan desserts
E. S.
The staff and food were lovely, however the calzone had what seemed to be old cooked potato pieces....
would come back for more freshly made pasta and to try their pizzas
S. M.
Excellent traditional Italian food at reasonable prices. The outside of the restaurant is a little uninspiring but the food more than makes up for it. Good selection of pizzas and pasta dishes plus some more unusual fare and daily specials. Antipatsa starter was out of the ordinary with hot lamb and pork included in it alongside usual cold meats and cheeses. Well worth a visit.
m. l.
Best parmigiana I have ever had. Have been there several times and always had parmigiana. Look for it in starters section.
E. s.
Quite a querky/authentic little Italian restaurant with some really tasty food and relatively cheap!
R. L.
Great food last night and reasonably priced. Will definitely be coming back.
k. p.
Good traditional Italian Gelato, not a massive selection of ice-cream but it was good.
J. L.
Authentic and delicious food as always. Lovely cocktails. Personalised friendly service. Looking forward to our next visit!
W. J.
Had the "Welsh breakfast with an Italian twist" - what a spectacle! Your standard full English with a selection of braised pork belly dishes. It all worked surprisingly well and made for a memorable feast. Friendly staff, very well made cappuccino.
A. V.
Its owner is Italian and this is noted with pizzas and pasta. The waiters are very friendly, the food is very good and the price is correct. I have repeated and I will repeat.
A. H.
Visited on a warm Sunday evening and was surprised they were able to seat us as they seemed very busy but it is a surprisingly Tardis like place!
The menu has a wide range of authentic beautiful dishes to choose from. Great service and hospitality from the moment we sat down with attentive efficient service.
After having some bread and olives I decided on a great sounding special which was as beautiful as it was tasty.
Im definitely going to eat there again, if I could I'd eat there every day Brilliant
K. C.
The aranchi was just delicious and the pizza was so authentic. Absolutely love Calabrisella.
J. W.
We hired the Calabrisella pizza van to do the catering at our wedding and we can't thank them enough! They were friendly and helpful from the first email. Turned up promptly on the day and set up quickly with no fuss. The van looked cool and they made us really delicious pizzas! Everyone really enjoyed them and the guys served everything with a friendly smile.
A.
Wonderful little place. Store front is very unassuming, despite the fact that it has come a looooong way décor wise over the last few years. Delicious food as always. Would recommend the Arancini Nero. Service is always very attentive and full of character. Amazing coffee, too.
K. D.
Fantastic food, attentive staff and good music in the background
A. J.
Breakfast was lovely and coffee amazing!
S. C.
Lovely meal, great service 👌 fab atmosphere 👍

Gotta love a Calabrisella pizza to take away after the most stressful 22 hours spent with vets and referral vet hospitals. Always a good call but yesterday's sooooo hit the spot 💕
L. d. J.
Amazing pizza's!! Would definitely come back there. Not much choice for vegetarians though, and the salad looked like it had seen better days and the cheesy garlic bread seemed to have forgotten its garlic. But the pizza's definitely made up for it.
L. S.
Such a fantastic place. The for is the best stone.
J. S.
Lovely atmosphere, friendly, genuine Italian staff and the food is outstanding. All at really reasonable prices.
K. L.
Lovely staff and great food. The best seafood pasta and tiramisu in Cardiff.
D. P.
Good atmosphere, good food, nice evening out
L. B.
Lovely food and a welcoming, cosy atmosphere. We had pizzas which were lush! Then we we went over the road to their gallateria and had ice cream sundaes which were also amazing! I would definitely recommend and will go back again soon.
J. L.

This place is an absolute gem! Although it's quite small and unsuspecting, the food is amazing, the staff are really friendly, and the prices are great too. We'll definitely be visiting again!
T. D.
Another beautiful restaurant in Cardiff. Friendly staff, beautiful food, great prices. Love coming back there. Thank you for amazing experience. Always. Xxx
B. N.
Great food staff brilliant had a fantastic time
J. P.
Our favourite! We are regulars in calabrisella. Great food and a really broad menu. Recommend the specials, especially the one day only specials on friday and saturday.
K. S.
Very good pizza and delicious tiramisu
P. D.
Lovey pizza, super tasty, thin, toppings are very nice. I could easily eat it every night if it was good for the waist line. Only advice I would give would be to slice the pizza. Not everyone eats it at home. Some might want to take it outside and then becomes difficult if sharing. But this doesn’t detract me from getting the pizza. The only place I get pizza in cardiff.
I. C.
Nice people food it's delicious prices acceptable
D. H.
Amazing authentic pizza, with vegan options too
H. A.
Amazing food every time! It baffles me how such good food comes at such a great price. The atmosphere is fantastic as always even though we have to eat outside. One of my favourite places to eat in Cardiff. Highly recommend.
A. S.
Delicious Italian authentic food, the best pizza and sea food pasta, was soo delicious 😋 lovely and warm atmosphere and very polite staff. Prices good for the budget 👌 highly recommended.

If you are looking for some quality Italian food, look no further. We never go anywhere else, because Calabrisella just never fails to amaze us with rich flavours, amazingly good quality ingredients and very reasonable prices. Oh and the service is great too, very friendly Italians! It’s our own little Italy in Cardiff! 😃
R. L.
An awesome restaurant with delicious food and warm service

Lovely address, biggest pizzas I've seen and absolutely lovely food

We were looking for a family friendly place to go for our anniversary meal, and we'd seen an article on the Wales Online about the top 10 eateries in Cardiff. Calabrisella was one of them. We are so glad we chose it! Every member of staff acknowledged us as we were taken through to our table and a highchair was provided for our 8 month old son. The food was amazing! We had the rice balls to start - hot, fresh and so tasty! And the pizzas we had for mains were thin, crisp and the toppings were delicious. The green salad side order was so simple - shredded iceberg lettuce with seasoning and olive oil, but Wow! It was amazing! We bought cake to bring home as we were so full from the food. They were big, generous portions. If you want a family friendly venue with friendly, attentive staff and amazing food, try Calabrisella! I'd advise to book in advance as it's not a huge place, but we had no trouble getting a reservation and there were a few walk ins who got a table between 5pm and 7pm while we were there.
A. B.
Stunning food with friendly staff. Always a treat.
O. O.
Amazing food and the pizza is mouth watering. This place made me love pizza again. And it's not just the pizza. If you love Italian then I suggest you try this place.
S. F.
Great place for a good meal and reasonably priced.
Excellent Atmosphere and service.
g. j.
Amazing Italian in the heart of canton in Cardiff! I love this restaurant, they even supplied the pizza for our wedding with their pizza van. Always had amazing food when I visit from their pizza's to pasta's to rissoto and breakfast!! My favourite restaurant, can't wait to visit again
J. W.
Exelent service, friendly atmosphere. 😋.
R. C.
First time there. Excellent traditional Italian family food. Staff can't do enough for you. Pleasant surroundings, small, but cosy. Can't wait to go back to try different dishes.
A. C.
The most homemade-like Italian food I have tried in years! And my mother in law is Italian😂 Great antipasti, main courses and pizzas. Staff are really friendly as well. Will come back and highly recommend it!
V. B.
Absolutely fantastic food and service here! My wife and I had Pizza and they were both amazing! Can't wait to go there again 5⭐ rating from us.
J. W.
Had a an amazing time at Calabrisella. Service was fantastic and lovely atmosphere. Great food that was very reasonably priced. I would recommend to friends
A. M.
Best service you can imagine. Very affordable, better than mainstream Italian restaurants which are over priced. Although it doesn't seem like a big modern place, don't let this deceive you. the food is amazing and the staff are very friendly. Authentic Italian staff and very attentive. Not five stars because of the space available. Desserts are delicious and you can tell they are made with love. Everything homemade.
V. W.
Love this place. True, traditional Italian food - recommended to us by our Italian friends (who won't eat at any other Italian in Cardiff).
From the outside it doesn't look like much but you won't be disappointed with the food. It's very well priced too.
M. a.
My family loves the food here, especially the Pizza Parmigiana! Definitely top2 pizza places in Cardiff. Staff is very friendly and they always make sure you have the best experience.
W. H.
Bellissimo! Great authentic Italian food cooked with passion. Superb pizza and the best tiramasu I have ever had...in the UK or Italy. Can't wait until my next visit. A presto!
V. S.
Smashing place. Quite busy, but tables are partitioned well. Food came fast and was tasty. We were last customers in at night but the staff welcomed us like they'd just opened. Recommended.
D. Z.
I went only for dessert but next time I ll definitely go for a meal !!! So fresh and tasty desserts !!!
J. G.
Great takeaway pizza thanks all.
M. D.
Wonderful restaurant and staff. I'd promised my son pizza before the Wales game, and Dusty Knuckle cancelled on us at the last minute. Emailed Calabrisella and they said they'd do us a table outside. We were 20 minutes late due to traffic and they still held the table for us. Pizza was superb, arancino best I've had. Thanks guys.
l.
Excellent. Food was fantastic, service excellent and reasonably priced. Will return at the first practicable opportunity. A real hidden gem.
M. J.
Stumbled across this wonderful restaurant. Beautifully cooked authentic food. Can't beat the price and the friendly, welcoming service. Perfectly cooked pasta and pizza and delectable desserts.
Highly recommend informal Italian.. you immediately know it's good when you walk in because it's frequented by Italians! Grazie mille - will be back
G. T.
Brilliant food! You could tell that it was real italian and it had a lovely homely and friendly atmosphere. The only let down was that the decor and outfits they were wearing were a bit tacky, the lights were too bright and they were playing horribly fast music (I don't mind Italian music but that was just too fast to hear for two hours+)
K. K.
Excellent authentic southern Italian cuisine. Generous helpings. A bit cramped and noisy if you need to converse quietly, but great relaxed atmosphere and friendly service.
B. F.
Food 5* Staff 5* Overall...er...5*. Not been since before COVID struck, but it seems at least as good as it was then. Excellent.
J. R.
Lovely food great authentic Italian small but cosy
J. F.
Love it. I have visited a few times now, usually lunch time for a coffee and snack. This afternoon I had a pizza. I love these authentic thin mozzarella covered pizzas. Very reasonably priced too. Also good staff.
s. a.
We searched for this restaurant as it gave good reviews but I had pasta with clams but most of them were closed. So couldn't eat them. I told the waitress but nothing was done about it. Don't think we would go again
S. C.
Excellent authentic italian restaurant, run by a bunch of talented great Italian guys! Ask for Salvatore, he will get you in with big smiles and show your way to a table in a heartbeat. Great Italian food, nice and friendly service overall and excellent pizza! Can't miss it! 😀
D. P.
The food is exemplary and stands out even in an area where good food / pizza is the norm. Very authentic Italian feel, serves as a meeting point for the local Italian community. The food and staff merit a slightly better building with a nicer frontage, but visitors who are put off by this will be missing out. Pizza-lovers, do stop by!
E. V.
Amazing Italian food! The place looks a bit shady on the outside but it's very cozy and clean on the inside! A must when in Cardiff xx Food is in huge portions and with amazin authentic taste! Loved it!
T. S.
Fantastic place looks like a small cafe from outside but has more tables on the other floors. The staff are very friendly and the food is fantastic and the pizzas are huge.
Highly recommend this place and the prices are very good.
A. M.
So nice to be able to get proper, authentic, tasty pizza, pasta & desserts! Fab staff, really popular spot for Cardiff's Italian community but welcoming to all. If you like the faux-Italian 'pizzas' offered by the big chains offering deep-pan American-style rubbish then you'll hate this place - which is fab for the rest of us as it's only tiny so they'll be more room to sit in! If however you want a true taste of South Italy then give it a go - you won't be disappointed!
V. A.
Amazing pizza, nice cocktails, super friendly staff. Definitely want to go there again.
B. G.
Been here many times and it is consistently good. Pizza, arancini, pasta, fish dishes, you name it. Everything is good. Quick and friendly service, fresh ingredients... whenever I miss home food I can count on Calabrisella.
W. P.
A wonderful new addition to Cowbridge Road. A small, Italian-run restaurant, which is very popular with the local Italian community.
Makes probably the best pizzas in Cardiff, and other menu dishes are of a similarly impressive quality, at very reasonable prices.
Highly, highly recommended.
C. K. Y.
Great tasting huge pizzas for a good price. Friendly staff, food service and a nice atmosphere. I would recommend this for an authentic, quality family meal.
M. F. C.
Excellent food! Best pizza in Cardiff. Authentic Italian food from the region of Calabria.... Really worth a visit if you like traditional and non restaurant chain food....
T. G.
This place was recommended to me by an Italian gentleman I met through my job. I love Italian food, and was happy to take him up on his advice for where to find authentic-style Italian food. He said it was the only place he had found in Cardiff where they make pizza just like it tastes in Italy!
I've only been here twice so far. Once to eat in with my parents, and once to take away with a friend. Both times I have to say the pizzas were incredible. I had calzone (a folded pizza) the first time I went, with a spicy ingredient called Nduja. I'm told they use a traditional woodfire oven which gets so hot it allows them to cook the pizza in a matter of minutes. There must be a benefit to doing it this way, because I've never had pizza dough like it in my life. Lightly crisped on the outside, but perfectly soft and stretchy inside. I didn't feel uncomfortably full or greasy afterwards either.
Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy your pizza.
A. P.
Excellent food, good menu, great portions. Lovely staff, friendly atmosphere. Thoroughly enjoyed our Saturday lunch here.
J. G.
Very authentic Italian restaurant great food very reasonably priced.
E. L.
Really good food, very affordable, lovely staff. Been here a few times now and have enjoyed it always. Not an extensive menu but that's not why you are there
E. B.
Calabrisella is fantastic. The pizzas, pasta dishes and desserts are all incredible, and are all so reasonably priced. Everyone who works there is so friendly too!
A. B.
Had lunch here today. Very friendly staff, great service and great food. A real gem. Very reasonably priced. Booked for dinner for the Cathays restaurant. Hopefully just as enjoyable
O. T.
Exactly what it says in the description "Classic Italian neighbourhood restaurant offering pizza and pasta, as well as traditional mains." There aren't many restaurants around that you can go for lunch and have a different homely food everyday.
M. N.
Great authentic small Italian restaurant. Friendly staff and lovely food. Good value too.
S. R.
Ignore the look of the place, even with the recent face-lift it's not going to seem like a place that you really want to be.
That being said, the food is exceptional value. It doesn't match places like Cafe Citta for quality, but the price point makes it highly attractive. I'd recommend sharing a few things; get a pizza, some arancini and maybe something else to share between 2/3.
H. B.
What a delightful place
A family member had told me how good Calabrisella is, so it was great to have the opportunity to try it for myself.
The outside of the restaurant looks more like a chip shop/take away than a restaurant, but the food is of restaurant quality and the ambiance of the place is comfortable and pleasant.
I began with Antipasto Calabrese for one, what a delight, it included cold cuts of meat and cheese and two warm meat dishes. Each of the flavours was distinctive and delightful. I'll come back just for this delight.
My partner had the Caprese Salad which was freshly cut with a lovely taste of freshly chopped basil over the mozzarella and tomatoes.
For mains I selected one of the items on the daily specials menu, and was really pleased with it. It was Tagliatelle con cervo, zucchina gialla e pomodoroni mantecate al pecorino (Tagliatelle of venison with yellow courgettes and cherry tomatoes with pecorino). The delicate tagliatelle tasted like it had been freshly made and was cooked el dente. The pecorino complemented the cheery tomato juice and the crunch of the courgette worked really well with the tangy pieces of venison.
When the dish arrived, I thought I might have needed an accompaniment of a salad, but the meal was really filling, so at the end, though I completed it all, I was glad I'd not added anything else.
My partner had the 14" Pizza Milano this was large and generous, but it's wonderful crispy base, typical of real Italian pizzas, meant it was easy to eat and the topping went all the way to the edges so there was no waste. The Pizza was just the right size for a main course, and delicious.
Having eaten well we skipped dessert and finished off with an espresso each, like the rest of the meal, this was a typical Italian espresso with a great depth of flavour.
Overall an excellent place to eat.
j. h.
Loved the cosy environment n decor. Extensive menu n good service with a smile. We were lucky 2 get a table as restaurant very small, but that's part of its charm :-D
J. Z.
Visited Calabrisella few days ago just to get a quick pizza for dinner and received smiley service and served fresh, piping hot pizza in 7 minutes. Definitely could recommend for quick t/a or lunch/dinner for couples, families etc....
R. S.
Our favourite Cardiff pizzaria, we go every opportunity we get! The interior is basic but the menu is very reasonably priced and the atmosphere is always friendly
C. I.
Excellent food and excellent service. I had a perfect meal here. Authentic Italian people serving delicious food. The place is small but cosy.

G. M.
Always amazing food and the team look after you like you're a member of the family.
E. L.
Humongous sizes but can easily take the leftovers home. Great selection of food, great staff but limited seating due to the small size of the building, but outdoor seating is available.
p. h.
Great coffee. Been a few times lately. Will have food there too in the near future. Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere...
L. S.
Fabulous meal at a really good price - the Polpette was amazing as a starter, followed by a really authentic Carbonara - as good as the one I had in Rome, but half the price!
J. C.
Lovely evening.
Very tasty food as usual.
Very friendly, happy staff.
Nice vibe. Feels as if on holiday haha
Recommend the aranchini for starters, pizzas for main and profiterols for dessert. Delicious xx
H. M.
Che nostalgia di casa! At home in Cardiff. This is the real deal. Want an authentic, Italian experience? You should eat here. No frills, no unnecessary glorification. Just pure, simple, down to earth true Italian food, drink and atmosphere at affordable, honest prices. I wish I lived closer so I could come every day!
R. S.
Authentic rustic Italian food. Best pizza I’ve eaten outside of Italy.
C. B.
Fabulous food and wine with an authentic tratorria vibe. Also great for pizza takeaways.
You can also order these from Crafty Devil if you fancy a pizza with your craft beer!
