Really friendly staff and great food. We will definitely come back here again for authentic Italian food. Only reason for giving 5 rather than 6 is that pizza was not on the Saturday night menu.

Good food and service generally ok, albeit we had to chase a side order which failed to materialise with our mains. Bright and airy setting, a pleasant stop for lunch or an informal dinner

Very welcoming and friendly ambiance, staff were very helpful and attentive without being intrusive. Varied menu including vegetarian options, salads, pasta and other main dishes. Starters and main courses to share or individual portions and a good choice of dessert. Disappointed in the food but maybe our choice: starter of calamari was delicious but the sauce to accompany the tempura courgette and spinach & potato croquettes was a very watery, flavourless tomato sauce - all in need of more seasoning and depth of flavour. Perhaps some cheese in the croquettes? Main course salad was delicious but accompanied by very hard, ring-shaped, tasteless breadsticks. Sharing pasta with venison ragu was very boring and rather dry, mixed salad had seen better days. Choc ice-cream and pannacotta with fruit were all delicious. Mid-range prices for below average food, such a shame.

Absolutely superb meal. The food was delicious and fairly priced sand the staff were perfectly attentive. Extremely authentic food and atmosphere. The best chips I've had in the UK (don't judge, had actual Sicilian food as well!). 10/10 would 100% recommend to singles, dates, couples and families.

We often come here as locals. It's good, honest thoughtful cooking. Service and prices are just as they should be. Sourcing is quality. Don't be afraid to ask for wine advice. You'll be glad you did.

We are not so keen on the newish menu offered by Barbaracca after its rebirth from the former La Luna. Part of the problem is the very Italian menu card - we should have asked for more info on what the items were, as we ordered a starter of what turned out to be a selection of tempura-coated things, with the emphasis on the batter. Much too fatty for a starter. My sea bass was utterly delicious, I have to say and the pear sorbet as heavenly as ever. My companion's salmon salad was very ordinary, however, just salad and salmon, not what you expect for a bill of over £100 for three. Sorry to have to say this, as the staff are as efficient and charming as ever and the attempt to offer real Sicilian food praiseworthy, but it didn't quite work this time for us.

My girlfriend and I had a very pleasant meal for her birthday on Friday. The food was tasty and the service was friendly - on the pricey side, but not hugely, so I would definitely go back for a treat.

The Aubergine based special was over cooked and needed a side salad or bread as it was very rich flavored. Atmosphere and service was good but generally felt the menu was overpriced for the portion size and quality of food.

Best meal out we've had in ages! The service was professional and attentive without being over the top. Food delicious and a reasonably priced. 3 courses with a good wine and coffees under £100. We were happy to give a big tip. Would definately go again and recommend to friends and family.

We went on a Saturday night and had such a lovely experience: great staff and delicious food (had rib eye steak and the mussel casserole). The place has a nice vibe, easy going with a good buzz. Definitely going back.

A rather informal setting with good ambience and excellent food which combines traditional Sicilian dishes with local flavours and produce. The wine list is extensive with wines being sourced across Italy. I would highly recommend.

Great restaurant, great food, really interesting wine list. Staff are always friendly and welcoming. Oddly the Quandoo system cancelled our reservation but we rang the restaurant and they reserved us a table with no issues. Highly recommend the restaurant. One of our firm favourites in Godalming Guildford area and has been for many years.
