Da Vinci's
Latest Reviews
We eat at Da Vinci regularly and always find the food and service outstanding. The prawn salad starter is larger than a main course at some restaurants and the fillet steaks are exceptional value and always cooked to perfection. We like the fact that the food is cooked to order, individually, by chefs on show in the open plan kitchen and not just prepared by 'microwave technicians'. A friend held her teenage daughter's birthday party at Da Vinci recently and said she was delighted with the food and service and it had worked out much cheaper than ordering takeaway pizzas for the girls.
I am surprised at reading some of the reviews on these pages as, having spent numerous holidays in all parts of Italy, we feel that the food IS authentic Italian, with a good choice for all age groups and occasions, and does it really matter what the nationality is of the people who are cooking it and serving it. Most of the best traditional English fish and chip shops are owned and run by Greeks or Cypriots.We enjoy the food, it is good value for money compared with other restaurants in the area, we are treated as friends by the staff, and this is why we keep returning. We will be there again this evening.

We visited Da Vincis for Brian's birthday last night 9th March and had yet another spectacular meal. We have been going regularly for the last 4 years and can honestly say in all that time we have NEVER had anything less than a fabulous and well presented meal. We have held several parties there for all our families and friends and Mo and Ali and staff have always welcomed us with open arms and a hug and kiss (that is for me not Brian) !!!! The quality of food for the prices they charge is exceptional and we don't think that anywhere around this area can beat them for this.
Keep up the good work Mo and Ali and we will no doubt see you very soon !!!!!

This Aldridge-based restaurant is one if the new kids on the block. Despite its initial teething problems, it has recovered to produce cuisine and service to a consistently high standard. There is a wide a la carte choice with a very competitive midweek menu which includes a bottle of wine. Our favourites are the mussels (there's even a choice of two) and I run out of superlatives when describing their steaks - seasoned and succulently cooked to perfection - are not to be missed. With friendly and attentive service, and reasonably priced wines, this gem won't break the bank balance.

Sunday lunches tend to be busy as you would expect but our few visits have, in the main, been early evenings.
Value and flavour feature well on the menu and staff have always been very friendly. Our latest trip was for their Monday evening "fish" special offers which I found tremendous and can highly recommend

Been a few times, always had excellent service and great food, can get busy of an evening when you may have to wait for your table and be a bit patient with service but never anything too long. Quieter early evening and daytime, always had service ourselves..couldn't choose a sauce for steak so brought us a selection out, daughter finished her steak before the rest of us had even started so offered to do her some more as she seemed so hungry haha,,and always wrap the other half of my younger daughters pizza up to take home as she can't manage a full one

Food is good but not really authentic Italian, good effort though.
Been a few times and always had good food, they will however insist on putting red wine into cream sauces, yuk, it makes the sauce look like mud.

Visited one lunchtime with my elderly mother, she really enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately being a mid week lunch time it was very quiet, you cannot beat the value for money little more than a pack of sandwiches for a 2 course meal and coffee. Amazing value.

We went there last Saturday evening. The place was heaving with parties. There were 12 in our group. I thought we'd be in for a long wait. I was wrong they coped really well with full capacity. Food and service were of good high standard.

we visited on Sunday and my husband, myself and our 3 kids all opted for the 3 course special menu at £9.99 each. Big portions, several choices, tasty food, served promptly. All good.
I'm vegetarian and there was sufficient choice for me, the waiting staff were happy to find out which desserts were veggie friendly as it did not state on the menu, and offered me extra alternatives. the restaurant is spacious enough to feel roomy but still has atmosphere. we will definitely return and not just on a Sunday.

Fancied something special for lunch and was not disappointed. The lunchtime special menu looked OK but a little limited, so I chose the Prawns and Spaghetti with chillies, ginger and garlic. A bit light on prawns (5) but an amazing flavour, piquant enough to be interesting. The house rosé was perfectly acceptable and complemented it well. The service was very good. Highly recommended.

We have been to this restaurant a few times now, the last visit on Christmas Eve (early evening, with 2 children). The food is great and the service is excellent. If you want a fresh dish of pasta we could not fault this restaurant, they are great as they are happy to do any dish in a small portion for children.
We will return as great value for money.

The lunchtime menu looked good enough but a little limited, so I chose the Prawns and spaghetti cooked with chillies and garlic from the a La carte menu. The food arrived quickly and, if a little light on prawns (5) was very nicely done and piquant enough to be interesting. The house rosé was perfectly acceptable and the service polite and helpful. I will certainly be back.

Yes, I know it sounds unlikely, but this Italian restaurant is run -very capably- by Asians.The atmosphere last w eek was hectic, but there were several parties being catered for and no-one seemed to be waiting for their meal, and the quality was excellent. Our group of 26 had orders taken within m inutes of arriving by smiling waitresses. They were really busy, but still smiling when we left. I think we tried everything on the menu between us, so I can only comment on my meal, The chicken was tasty, the vegetables cooked just right, and the tiramisu.........I had some a few years ago in Naples and this was just as good. Wh.en we go again (and we will) it should be a bit quieter, But it's only Christmas once a year!

Dined here with colleagues on a Wednesday evening. All chose from the set menu. Good choices. Nice atmosphere. My 2 colleagues were a bit dull though.

We have been here a few times now. Every visit has been a pleasure. This time we turned up without a booking and we're accommodated quickly a with a friendly smile. The food was great. Service excellent and prices very good

Visited twice now for business meals I am a big Italian food fanatic and this does not quite live up to expectations.Maybe a smaller menu would help for the relatively small number of staff.

Great food & great staff, good prices
What more could you want?
The parking could be a little better as it is in a busy high street but if that's a problem take a taxi

Have been here on a number of occasions with friends and family. the food is always tasty and I like that you don't have to have traditional Italian food there is a twist to a lot of the dishes. Also if you want a starter done as a main meal then they will. Nothing is too much trouble and the Owners are very friendly and helpful and you can see your food being cooked as its got an open kitchen. Very light and airy restaurant The only downside is the lack of car parking on an Evening not that its the fault of the restaurant that's Aldridge in general if only they could improve parking facilities as there are more eating places opening up

We have been to Da Vinci's several times as a couple, as a family and with a large group of friends and have always had a good experience. The staff are extremely friendly and have always looked after us well. The food is always flavoursome and is good value for money, especially the Sunday special offer. Looking forward to going again with friends this weekend!
