I had a lovely meal at Trentina from start to finish! The staff were so friendly and attentive. I ordered the bruschetta to start, which was SO ridiculously fresh and delicious. The artichoke pasta dish was amazing- I was doing little happy dances while eating it. Finished it off with an affogato soft serve ice cream which was the perfect end to the meal.Highly highly recommend!!

Unfortunately, on both of my visits, we were informed right after receiving the menus that two of their most popular dishes, which we had intended to order, were already sold out. Considering their limited menu selection, this was quite a significant disappointment. If we had been aware of the unavailability of these items beforehand, we might have reconsidered our visit or chosen a different day to increase our chances of trying them.Despite this setback, the dishes we ultimately ordered were well made and tasty. I'm optimistic that the Trentina team will work on refining their menu planning system, as it would be a shame to see this restaurant lose customers due to such issues.

Neighborhood Italian serving a small, seasonal menu of pasta, mains & starters. The menu rotates every few weeks, so there are often new or seasonal dishes to enjoy.Good drinks selection. Soft-serve ice-cream & slushies in the warmer months.

Visited for the first time today and had a wonderful experience. Food, drinks and service are absolutely at the top of their game. Prices were really reasonable and there’s an option for everyone - depending on budget - whether it’s a bite to eat or a three course meal. From the moment we walked in, our experience was fab. We were greeted with a smile by Gabby who explained the menu to us and took our order. Max served our meals and happily chatted away to us - checking everything was okay and making sure we didn’t need anything else. A big thanks to Rob who made the drinks - I would recommend the cocktails and they were reasonably priced too. You can tell that everyone who works here has tasted and enjoyed the food - something we feel is really important if you’re going to offer suggestions and advice to your customers. We will absolutely be back! Thank you for such a lovely experience.

I've been here 3 times now. Overall food is great and I do enjoy the changing menu but the restaurant feels slightly cramped as the chairs and tables are too close together. I do think soft furnishing will help with the atmosphere and noise because it can be a bit loud at times.Personally I loved the pumpkin Gnocchi from this menu but didn't love the orecchiette. Their focaccia is always great.

Arrabbiata sauce is unreal. the staff and chefs are charming. Lovely little spot, interior could be better decorated to add more character to the restaurant and make it more memorable. Lovely artwork on the walls, the white ragu was lovely too. Small but pleasant wine selection and went well with the food. I'd recommend booking a table as it's usually filled up.

I’d been looking forward to coming to Trentina, however I left disappointed.Firstly, it was £14 for a one main which comprised of next to no pasta, served in a flavoursome sauce which consisted of mostly oil. The price is was too high for something I’d consider an appetiser, I have read other reviews and it seems that others have had this issue.Secondly, my partner and I left the restaurant hungry and went to find other food. It’s not what I expect when eating out. We even had a rather dry focaccia (dipping olive oil would’ve been welcome) and Olives to start, and still left hungry.Thirdly, we were situated right by a speaker in the corner of the restaurant, we couldn’t hear other speak.There was only one true vegetarian option also, would’ve been nice to have some choiceHowever our waitress, Halimah, was very friendly. Their Lemonade is delicious (it came with a stupid short straw though!) and I did order two of them. Also, the olives were very nice, the type you’d expect at a place like this.Overall, I’m afraid I can’t recommend this place. It’s a shame as I was really looking forward to coming here, but the fact that the food doesn’t represent good value is a real off-putter. £55 on food to then go and buy more because neither of us were satiated? DisappointingI would save your money and go to Otto a few doors down

The food here is just a work of art!Great service we was made to feel very welcome and put at ease with full explanation of the menu. Nice short menu with good prices and the portions are very generous too.Restaurant is a little shabby chic and looks unfinished but all forgiven as I think the food trumps everything here.

Food is spot on and service and ambience light, modern and very friendly. we chose 3 starters between the 2 of us - the focaccia is outstanding, english burrata super creamy balanced against the lamb salami.We had 4 main courses - the standout dish here was the chicken but all were delicious.Fantastic meal (felt like being on holiday) and great value for money. We'll be back!!!

Food and atmosphere does not justify the price. The main course contained three raviolis covered in red wine jus. While the flavours were nice, the serving size was unacceptable considering the price of £14. If there is an expectation that a customer should order more than one main per person, this should have been communicated at the start of the service to ensure that customers order enough to not leave the restaurant hungry.For the dessert we had Gorgonzola, which was served with a poached pear which lacked flavour. There was no added crunch such as nuts, so there was nothing to balance the intensity of the cheese. We paid £9 for this, but it is easy to find a much better arranged cheese plate elsewhere for the same price or less.The atmosphere was okay, not bad but nothing extraordinary that could not be found elsewhere.We had no complaints about the service, however this still does not make up for the mediocre (at best) food.
