Atmosphere and Decor

Pros:

  • "The atmosphere is wonderful in here and the pup can join us."
  • "The restaurant was absolutely charming, we enjoyed a wonderful atmosphere."
  • "This is the best place in town! whether you want a quick bite to eat, cocktails or a romantic meal, this is the place."
  • "Love love love this place, always friendly, great atmosphere, foods always delicious, dog friendly and amazing vegan options."
  • "Lovely atmosphere and good fast service."
  • "The decor is very 70s, so if this is your thing you will love it."
  • "Great decor and relaxed vibe, dog and child friendly with board games and things to amuse little ones for free."
  • "Brilliant atmosphere topped with first-rate service and food."

Cons:

  • "I was never a fan of the decor, and the quirky plates put me off Orsino as a serious restaurant or somewhere to eat out."
  • "A cafe/restaurant with a difference. The bacon sandwich was way overpriced for the size. Very disappointing."
  • "It's a shame they don't come and take your orders at the table."
  • "The appearance looks OK....clean and fairly spacious.....the noise level was so high that to have a conversation we were almost shouting at each other."
  • "The acoustics can be poor (there’s nothing to absorb sound), so when it’s busy it can be very difficult to converse."
  • "It's a bit dark inside during the day but think it would have a good atmosphere at night."
  • "Unfortunately, the place was so full of young noisy mothers and their screaming children that it really put me off."
  • "It used to be my favourite place for breakfast in Biggleswade - but the quality of food went down."

Food Quality and Selection

Pros:

  • "The food is really tasty as with all the lounges, but Orsino does the best whipped feta."
  • "Very efficient and speedy service with all dishes arriving in a timely manner and well cooked."
  • "The food was delicious, but the portions are small."
  • "Although the food was average, the kids' menu was so impressive that our children had a great time."
  • "The food and drinks are great too."
  • "The menus are very well thought out and other restaurants could learn a thing or two from this place."
  • "Breakfast was really nice as well."
  • "Whether you fancy an afternoon coffee or a beer or two in the evening, Rosso is as good a place as any to go in Biggleswade."

Cons:

  • "The portions are small. The tapas that my friend had, looked very presentable, and my Rose's Truffle Chicken was nice, although it was the size of a normal starter."
  • "The breakfast food I had was lovely but other members of my family were disappointed as the bacon was overcooked."
  • "I ordered a salad from here and asked for extra falafels which was £2.75, I got 2! Then they also added tomato which wasn’t on the menu."
  • "Had the poached eggs with mushrooms on a muffin with hollandaise sauce, mushrooms were cold and watery."
  • "I went for breakfast and staff were great as always, and efficient. Great coffee and love the treats and fresh water for our dog."
  • "Food wasn't nice I had the onion bhaji and they were not cooked and the sweet corn fritters were greasy and soggy not nice."
  • "The calamari was seriously overcooked and that ruined the meal for us. Won't be returning."
  • "We were a little disappointed with this place last Saturday. It was crowded, and apart from normal chit chat from all tables, they had loud, inaudible music blasting out!"
