Pani’s has some of the best Italian food i have ever tasted. It is also very reasonably priced and is right next to the Theatre Royal so its great if you’re going to see a show after dinner

• highly recommended

A wonderful place, I was there the day it opened and I still go. At lunch time I either have the tuna salad or the soup, both wonderful. Their bread is always so fresh, I used to have a Dolcelatta and parma ham poppyknot, no salad, no butter and it was perfect (until my trousers got to tight!) The guys and girls who run it are always friendly and try and get you a table as soon as possible, the atmosphere is lively and never quite. Enjoy!

Perfect place to enjoy authetic italian fare at luchtimes especially. Run by proper Italians and it shows not only in the quality of the food but in the laid back ambience.

A little treasure! You know an Italian restaurant is good, if Italians choose to eat there. It’s honest, reasonably priced and authentic. If you have been to Italy, you will see how true to it’s roots Pani’s really is! If you order anything with seafood, be prepared for whole pickled baby Octopussys :-)

Equally good during the day or for an early evening supper.

I love it here, the food is really good, and as has been mentioned previously, really authentic and hearty. I've been for both lunch and dinner, and it's a good venue for couples and groups of friends. The waiters are really friendly too. The location is great to use it as a starting point for a great night out! Enjoy!

Pani’s is TRULY authentic- all the waiters are from Italy and the food is so good it must be cooked by an Italian chef. It’s more of a lunch place than somewhere I’d go for dinner with quick reliable service and good value for money. They often change the menu so if you go often you can’t get bored of the food. The pasta portions are a good size and extremely tasty. It’s off buzzing Gray Street up a little cobbled lane so you need to know where you are going if you head to Pani’s. It attracts all sorts; students but also people who work in the area and who know where to get a good bite to eat
