I went to Zio Piero last night for the first time since they reopened. I had a pizza, a glass of wine, and a panna cotta. Wow, it's fabulous! The place has been modernised so that it feels more contemporary, but it hasn't changed beyond recognition, and still has that homely feel.
The service is great - very welcoming, and they take great pride in the food. I'm glad to report it's still the same kind of menu, with some of the old favourites and some new ones too. I'm delighted that they make the desserts themselves on site instead of buying them in (I always find that a disappointment in some otherwise good restaurants). The panna cotta (I chose the strawberry sauce - home-made also!) was honestly the best I've ever had.
I'll definitely come back with my friends! Thank you for a great dinner.

Husb and I visited Cardiff and were strolling along looking for somewhere nice to eat and spotted Zio Piero. So glad we went in, it's a lovely family-run Italian restaurant with friendly staff and really nice decor. And the food is fantastic! We shared a bowl of marinated olives, delicious, served with two types of warm homemade bread which was gorgeous. I had the best Caesar Salad I've ever eaten for my main course and Husb had a Chicken Cacciatore which he raved about. We were too full for desserts. This will be our go-to restaurant in Cardiff from now on.
So good to be back new owners new menu but still great food wine and service!
