    Francesco’s pizza is an excellent Neapolitan pizza. And the place has a very enjoyable vibe. Highly recommended.

    So good to discover Cotto in in heart of Hereford. We visited last week with friends and kicked off with a nicely made Espresso Martini and olives whilst browsing a manageable menu that we were told changes daily. Authentic Italian dishes utilising many homegrown British ingredients. The biggest and best giant prawns with garlic butter; homemade squid ink pasta with Cornish crab, risotto, pizza, see bass, Hereford beef ragu… How to choose! All divine. A special word for Front of House too. The very lovely JoJo. Efficient yet relaxed and friendly. Made us all feel comfortable and special. Can’t wait to go back.

    Here’s a sample 5-star review for a restaurant where you enjoyed pizza: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Absolutely fantastic experience! The pizza here is hands-down one of the best I’ve ever had. The crust was perfectly crispy yet chewy, with just the right amount of char from the pizza-fired oven. We tried a couple of different toppings, and each one was loaded with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavor. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the cozy atmosphere made it a great place to unwind and enjoy a meal. Highly recommend this place to any pizza lover – we’ll definitely be coming back!”

    Very Authentic and superb quality of Food and Wine. I normally would not like Risotto as it is usually too strong and rich a cheese taste. But here with Sea Bass it was perfection. Perfectly cooked and Seasoned. The Primitovo wine was the best of that type of wine that I have had. The vegetables ordered as an extra - Asparagus, Aubergine and Salad was perfectly cooked. The Pizza was fantastic too - Gorgonzola and Mushroom. The Service was Amazing - we arrived as soon as they opened. Very much like being in Italy!!
