  “Had heard mixed reviews but wanted to try it. The entrance has a deafening bell that goes off every time someone goes in or out and it does not seem necessary, it is not a big place nobody is going to get lost going from the door to the restaurant. We were sat at a nice table and given a nice greeting by the young girl waitressing. However once we began to look through the menu all we could hear was the (owner I believe) dropping F bombs every two seconds. I am not anorude and swear like a sailor myself but it was a bit jarring to hear when you are sat down in what is supposed to be a nice restaurant. The food was fine, bruschetta was delicious and the Arincini balls were good. The main for the Nduja Ravioli was a bit lack lustre. Very salty and a small portion for the price. It started to get busier which was greta as all we heard the whole meal was the door bell like convenience store. I noticed another review mentioned this 3 years ago so glad to see it has been addressed... *EDIT TO MY REVIEW AFTER REPLY* THE PERSON WAS MOST CERTAINLY THE OWNER. AS THE WAITRESS POINTED AT YOU AND SAID SO. WE WERE THE ONLY PEOPLE IM THE RESTAURANT AT THE TIME (5PM) AND THE OWNER SAID GOODBYE TO US WHEN WE LEFT. THE SAME PERSON WHO WAS SWEARING THE WHOLE TIME. (Until am older couple arrived, when the person the owner was talking to left)”

  “Visited on a Saturday night. The food was very nice. Lost a star as the food came at very different times, some of us finished before others started. Would visit again.”

  “Da Vinci is a great restaurant. It has a lot of choices, including dishes suitable for vegans. We were a party of 6 and were mostly happy with our dinner for my daughter birthday. So it might be mean of me giving it 4 stars. While I enjoyed the food, I expected maybe something better. There was a certain "je ne sais quoi" missing. The dessert, "bonet", didn't quite hit the spot. However, I'd love to return and try different dishes.”

  “Unfortunately we didn’t enjoy this location very much. Despite only having us and one more table, the food took very long. Over 30 minutes for 2 pizzas and a starter. The portions were very small for the price. The bruschetta had 3 tiny pieces of bread and needed salt (or some sort of flavour) it was nothing special. I’ve added a photo to the Caprina pizza. It took 30 minutes for that?! Where is the sausage? Where is the caramelised onion and goat cheese? There’s barely anything on this pizza. £18 for this? We’ve had better at dominos. The waitress was polite and the atmosphere was cozy but that’s where the positives end.”

  “Great Italian restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. The Margherita pizza had a perfect thin crust with fresh tomato and mozzarella, and the pasta was full of flavor. Friendly service and good portion sizes. Would definitely come back!”

  “Tucked away in a back wynd if we weren’t told about it we wouldn’t have tried it. Been there for 9 years! Two of us went on the recommendation of a colleague. Mind you we are staying in a hotel 3 mins walk away and wouldn’t know it was there. Small and quaint. Ingredients are fresh and wine list is pretty extensive for the size. The vegan choices on the website are not on the menu as I wanted to try a main as a starter but they were unwilling to do it for the pricing. Offered to pay for the highest starter but they wouldn’t budge. Food came fast and hot. See pics for menu. Was amazing. The Negroni was good if a tad sweet. The rosé perfect. Pizza crust was divine and can easily feed two if you had starters. Food was delicious and precise portions. Skipped dessert much to my dismay. 100% would recommend and will go back to explore the menu more extensively.”

  “A little hidden gem! Slightly off the main strip but worth the walk! I work offshore, so it's becoming my main place for a decent feed when I land! Warm and friendly, you'll find everything from amazing pasta to wood fired pizzas, and classic Italian desserts! My default is the mushroom tagliatelle with truffle oil and a tiramisu to finish! I had the air dried beef with parmesan to start this time round! For fans of a grappa after dinner they have two to ease that full tummy! I had two large glasses of wine, a basket of wood fired, garlic focaccia, and two grappas, just to reflect the pricing! Proper Italian food done right!”

  “Probably the one and only restaurant in Aberdeen which offers a true Italian and Tuscan experience! An extensive menu with typical dishes from Tuscany and Italy, relaxing atmosphere, friendly and competent staff and obviously, top quality food! Definitely the one place you don't want to miss so, if you haven't been there yet, well, you should definitely make some time and enjoy a great experience at Da Vinci!”

  “A really lovely restaurant. Authentic Italian, with a rustic feel. The food was fantastic, the server was really welcoming and friendly. Music was gentle and set the mood well. It’s quite a romantic place. As a point of improvement, If you can please change the noises from the restaurant phone and door. They are very loud and they really break up the atmosphere set by the lighting, the smelling candles and the music. Once that’s done, I think the restaurant will be the absolute best!”
