What a find! Without doubt, for me, the best Italian restaurant I have been to. The staff are so friendly and even children are made to feel welcome. We were a party of 5 adults and a 6 year old and everyone, without exception, said how amazing their meals were. My grilled chicken breast with the Dragonella sauce was absolutely scummy, my daughter's salmon ravioli has become her number one meal and the lasagne and ravioli gorgeous. I probably would have liked more on the dessert menu but the tiramisu was lovely. We all agreed, we will be back!

A very nice restaurant. Food, drink and the entire staff are highly recommended. Even though we didn't reserve, we got a table.This tip was very good from a friend and we can recommend Elgano to everyone.Mille grazie a tutti.

We came for dinner here on the 13th of February to celebrate an early valentine’s day.The service was remarkably good, as was the selection of wines. In particular, i’d recommend the Gavi.We had polpette and the calamari to start, both incredibly good.For mains, we opted to have a pasta dish each and to share a pizza, the carbonara was authentic and the house special was exquisite.The pistachio profiteroles finished the meal nicely and we left as very happy customers.I’d recommend Elgano’s to anybody looking for an Italian in Cardiff, it is certainly amongst the best that we have tried.

Called the restaurant to cancel a booking that was made due to my partners ACL being ruptured so was unable to make it and called with plenty time to spare and requested a refund but the lady on the phone refused without hearing us out and abruptly hung up the phone. It is interesting how they are so lovely when they want you to make reservations or dine there to get profit but as soon as they know you are no use to their sales they are rude

A fantastic, authentic, Italian dining experience. The salmon starter with ricotta and avocado was amazing and the carbonara was delicious - crispy pancetta done in the Italian style. Superb service. A delightful venue for a cozy date. We will definitely be back.

Stayed overnight and had evening meal in restaurant. Food, service and staff were first class. Lovely styled modern bedroom too. Highly recommended.Parking: Limited secure parking available. But quite tight to get in to. Very helpful staff will guide you though.
