Viva L'Italia - Windsor Castle

We recently dined at Viva L'Italia and had a pleasant experience with both the food and service. However, we were informed that the restaurant had been renovated and our booking for the Italian steakhouse was transferred to their other location in Windsor. The food was average, and my carbonara order without cream was served with cream. The homemade tiramisu resembled more of a cake, was drowned in chocolate sauce, and lacked flavor. The staff were friendly, but overall, I left feeling disappointed. We were given a 50% discount for the incorrect carbonara, but it would have been better to receive the correct dish. While I had hoped to enjoy Viva L'Italia, I am unsure if I will return in the future.

High quality Italian kitchen, very cheap. excellent.

It wasn't bad, but there was nothing special about it. We were the only people in there on a Saturday night but the service wasn't particularly attentive. Wouldn't actively recommend it but if it was the only place open or available I'd go back.

Table right next to kitchen where there was an overwhelming smell of burning garlic. Had to send my girlfriends rump steak back as it was very tough! My meats were dry and over cooked! Couldn't wait to get out to be honest with you.

Nice atmosphere, but got our order wrong, which was a shame. They offered to replace, but my wife didn’t want to eat alone, so she kept her dish, as I would of eaten mine. I think they should of offered to do both meals again. They charged me for the original meal, but I think they should of not charged for it, I won’t be going there again, just seemed like a posh cafe really.
