Harden's survey result
Summary
A “fantastic setting beside the River Wharfe” provides the perfect backdrop for “good Italian food and friendly service” from Alessandro & Sofia Elena Tocca, who have established a strong local following over more than 20 years. Their Italian take on the classic Sunday roast is a highlight of the menu.
Summary
“With its attentive staff and lovely setting by the river”, Alessandro & Sofia Elena Tocca’s “wonderful Italian restaurant” draws an appreciative crowd and is “a favourite of many locals”. One of Wharfedale’s most consistent performers for two decades, it has blossomed since moving into an old weir-side mill five years ago.
Summary
A stalwart of Wharfedale dining for two decades, Alessandro and Sofia Elena Tocca’s “authentic” and “consistently good” Italian restaurant has found a wider audience since moving four years ago into a stunning weir-side location that was formerly the Garnett paper mill.
Summary
“A family-run Italian restaurant, with authentic food” – at a “beautiful location on a weir of the River Wharfe” – Alessandro and Sofia Elena’s converted paper mill wins consistently good ratings after 21 years in business. “Sitting by the water on a sunny summer day could not be bettered” – and it helps that “the owners are always there”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
