The only reason this restaurant gets a 2 rating from me is because of the service which was excellent. I was there with a very large group of people 20+ as part of a fundraising event. Perhaps that is why the food was so bad. Set menu 2 courses £10. I love italian food and have eaten in just about... More

Been to Verde a few times. They accept taste card, wave card, and I love Oxford card which are all helpful. The £9.95 menu for two courses represents great value, especially as the starters include white bait and calamari, which would normally by v. expensive. The pizza can be overly cheesy, but pastas are lovely and tasty. Good atmosphere and... More

Both the regular menu and the starter & main for £9.95 offer great value. Food is of a high standard & for a school night, quick meal, you can't complain. Just got back from Verde this evening & always find myself thinking that if the restaurant floor was half the size, both atmosphere & occupancy would be improved. I will... More

Good selection of dishes. We all chose from the "two courses for £9.95 menu" All four of us were impressed and satisfied with what we chose. Very good value for money

Stumbled across this place by accident. I am so happy we did. The food was great and we experienced excellent customer service from the moment we walked through the door.

Good deals (reasonably priced), friendly staff, not overcrowded. Very good place to eat on a busy Cowley road. Don't set expectations too high and you will be OK. Good wine selection. Not a long wait.

We have gone here twice, for a quick bite. We ate pizzas both times. First time we were super-starved so we did not know if the food *really* tasted good or were we simply too hungry. So we decided to go again. The food was really nice, the staff was also quite friendly and nice. The head waiter was very... More

We ended up here whilst waiting for our offspring who were at a concert at the O2 Academy just down the road. This restaurant stands out from the others in the locale. We visited on a Sunday and they were less than busy. The service was excellent and attentive. We were not rushed to place our order. When we did... More

Rude service and food extremely disappointing The staff are not interested if you are not happy with the food, our waiter did not make an effort to appease us when we said the quality of the food was not acceptable. I even had an email asking for my feedback from the restaurant, to which I gave an honest review. I... More
