Deliziosa

We called in here at my daughters suggestion, and it was an excellent one. The staff were lovely, very helpful. We had a friendly waiter who had a good balance in attentiveness given how busy it was. The food was great - we had some picky eaters, the boys went for pizza. They are fussy about their pizzas but this was, apparently, up there as top notch in Leeds pizzas. I had fish, which was perfectly cooked, and my daughter had pasta. She is pescatarian and there was a good range of vegetarian and fish options for her. This was very busy, a weekend lunch service. We hadn’t booked and luckily they managed to accommodate us with a table, but I would recommend booking.

The cannoli are to die for !! I ordered the minestrone soup and was disappointed. It was a mush of peas beans lentils and carrots . I've had many Italian minestrone soups but none like this. My friend had meatballs which she said were under seasoned. The service was with a smile and the cannoli saved the day .

Had a lovely meal here. The tabled we were seated at had a nice view. For drinks I ordered the delizioca cocktail, aperol spritz, and Primitivo. The cocktails were lovely, could’ve been stronger for my personal taste, the wine was excellent. To start I had the Arancino Classico. It was delicious, it didn’t even need the sauce it came with. My only issue was the plate it was served on was tiny, which made it awkward to eat. My partner’s mackerel salad was lovely as well. For main I had the carbonara. The reason we wanted to try Delicioza was because they make carbonara to the Italian recipe. It was lovely. My only complaint was that it needed more sauce, and was a bit claggy. My partner had the malloreddus. He liked it, but the pasta was slightly too al dente (and we love our pasta al dente) and the flavours needed a bit longer to come through. For a casual Sunday meal we had a lovely time. The service was very friendly, taking our food order was a little slow but that didn’t take away from the experience. We’re looking forward to our next visit.
