Way too busy screaming baby on the next table at 10 on a Saturday night. Couldn’t wait to get out of there. The Tara is absolutely awful thin with zero flavour, the humous isn’t far behind. The Ezme salad was also tasteless. The meat was nice. Service was great. Venue is nice and prices not too bad. Don’t think it’s for me this place. Shame

What a great restaurant. The look and feel is great, a huge menu with loads of choice, the food was fantastic and the service was superb. What's not to love? I wish this was nearer to where I live. Brilliant night- thank you

Had a great night at Pircio! The food was great, with a nice selection of food from Italian and Turkish cuisines. The atmosphere was top tier, with staff who were very welcoming, helpful and friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Beautiful location, unfortunately the food was disappointing. The “fresh mussels” we had as a starter were actually frozen ones. I believe it is against the law to advertise “fresh” and then use thawed frozen seafood. The mussels tasted dry and old. The grilled plates were better, especially the lamb. Chicken shish was dry and breast meat (=tasteless). The sauce provided with the grilled prawns was industrial packaged Asian Chili sauce. Would have expected WAY better in a Turkish restaurant that has even a bit of pride.

It is extremely busy place but no delay about service such a food and drink service. It is like a rocket science, fast service and good vibe always in this beautiful place. Friendly service They focused to customer service they called us as a guest so We feel confident. I highly recommend this fantastic place Menu is Italian and Mediterranean Huge wine list and cocktails. Birthday celebrations makes smiles on everyone faces . Happy to come again and again

It was my first visit to Pircio, whilst staying with a friend in Bishop's Stortford. She wasn't sure if it was for us but we loved it. Although it was early on Saturday night (circa 6pm), the large place was really busy and in a good way. There was a great atmosphere and vibe yet the food and service weren't compromised by the busy-ness. We both had meat kebabs - lamb and chicken - and they were both beautifully cooked and really tender. The Turkish house red wine was very coiffable. We didn't try the cocktails but will next time!

Brilliant place for groups.. huge dining area, beautifully decorated, lively atmosphere ( this is not a place for a romantic table for two!)Really wide choice of food, something for everyone.Service was truly excellent.. super accommodating, and really took care of the kids in our group.Can't comment on the VFM as we were guests, so didn't pay the bill.Would definitely book, this is a super popular place!

Party of 4 and we sat upstairs to celebrate my partner's birthday. Want to say staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, however the wait for food, and particularly drinks, was really long; for example we ordered cocktails before ordering mains and, despite asking waitors about it multiple times, they still hadn't turned up after mains were eating. On the other hand, we were treated to some shots to make up for the wait. Quality of the food was absolutely fantastic and cannot fault but value for money may not quite be there for some dishes. Atmosphere was great as it was a very busy night and had a fun vibe, especially with the flow of birthday announcements throughout the evening, but may benefit from some music or live performanceOverall, will definitely return at some point but would be keen to try some of the surrounding restaurants first
Fantastic venue, never seen so many waiting staff in my life! A few orders were mixed up but we got our orders correct in the end and to be fair it was very busy!Great atmosphere and the waitering staff were very jolly.

Great restaurant a nice relaxed atmosphere, a little noisy though, Great Italian and Greek food . Veg was a little hard else I would have given it a 5 star, A lovely outside eating space for good weather eating as well .

Can confirm the Turkish side of the menu was super nice, I will try the Italian next time.
