Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the handmade food at La Pazienza, describing handmade pasta, sauces full of flavour, and homemade desserts made from scratch. Scallops to start and a main of salmon get a specific mention, and one reviewer calls the cooking authentic Sicilian. Close behind is the welcome: several describe a family-run feel, with the chef coming out to greet tables, and large parties of seven and eleven being seated promptly. The cozy interior and the garden and courtyard seating also draw praise, along with the cocktails and wine list. The caveats are small. One reviewer finds the portions medium-sized for the cost, another notes one staff member who seemed unhappy to be there, and a family of eleven says the mains arrived a while after the starters, though they did not mind. Because the place is busy, one reviewer suggests booking for a Saturday night. Several reviewers close by saying the chef stopped by to say hello.

    “Great authentic Sicilian food, excellent service and decor, although there was one waitress/staff member who didn't seem that happy to be there. Chef came out and spoke to all of the customers which was a nice touch. Food is of excellent quality although a little expensive for medium size portions. Great selection of wines and home made desserts. All round lovely place.”
