At Pane e Vino I made the mistake of having a pizza which was still cold and soggy in the middle. I would recommend the tuna salad as no cooking is involved although the tuna looks to me as though it is out of a can.

However, on a more positive note if you are careful what you order its a fine place to go for a quick and cheap meal.

Really funny staff, amazing food with a great atmosphere.

I went to Italian Pane E Vino for the first time recently with my partner and some friends and I can only say that I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an informal evening with good food and great atmosphere. The only fault I could possibly find was the chips that were likened to those you get at McDonalds but heyho it wouldnt be enough to put me off going again. Really good food, excellent service and quite reasonably priced.

I've been to Pane E Vino's a few times by friends for their birthday dinners, mainly I guess for the reason that they get a tacky birthday song blasted out of the speakers when the cake arrives...this happens at least twice a night, there always seems to be a birthday table there. I think the only people who like the food are those who haven't actually eaten at a good Italian restaurant. Food is very average and the atmosphere is just cheap.

Pan E Vino was disappointing. One would expect from an italian restaurant authentic italian food. Upon ordering the pizza funghi from the lunchtime menu I was astonished when what I was served looked a bit like frozen pizza with some mushrooms scattered on top. It would have been cheaper to buy a pizza from the supermarket across the road and bake it myself. Some of the staff were impersonal and distant.

We have eaten at the Pane E Vino for 9 years now never had a problem with food,waiters or Tony the owner,who is very friendly and helpful,as is Conner the Irish waiter.Chefs are first class and have on many an occasion produced a dish of my request not on the menu. Thanks to all at the staff Pane E Vino passed and present for the good times in the passed and the ones still to come.

Pane E Vino sells good quality food at excellent prices. The staff generally are very friendly and helpful. I have been going there for over 10 years on a weekly basis, and I have never had a complaint, and my basis for comparison is of a high standard being well travelled and a regular at the Gleneagles hotel.

I tend to find that the staff in any restaurant will reflect how you treat them, and at the end of the day they are human as well and probably have to deal with a lot of arrogant people on a daily basis, which personally would annoy me as well. Usually the price you pay will reflect the quality of food, and as far as Pane E Vino is concerned this is not the case, as the quality exceeds the price by far...try and get a table on a Friday or Saturday night and you'll find that the general consensus is that Pane E Vino is a very good and popular restaurant.

Food was awful, we were rushed through our meal from start to finish which lasted all of about 25 minutes, staff were arrogant, the atmosphere was like being in a very large crammed cheap cafe.

I would ask for a booth table next time I visit Pane E Vino Italian restaurant in Kirkcaldy. The steak was cooked to perfection, the quality was excellent, and the pepper sauce spot on! Staff were professional and friendly, particularly the Irish waiter.

If you want lovely food at OK prices, with nice helpful staff (when they aren't busy and stressed), go to Pane E Vito Italian restaurant in Kirkaldy. You will enjoy your time; just make sure it's not at the weekend.

It appeared that they also over charged us by adding numerous items to bill!
So check your bill.
We didn't until we got home, we will not be back.

The food at the Pane E Vino Italian restaurant in Kirkaldy is generally quite good, but you are rushed through every course. A member of my party (whose birthday it was) was reduced to tears after her "dealings" with the manager. She had wrongly ordered, and he wasted no time in telling her so, and did not even offer to replace the meal with the intended one. It certainly was not a "happy" birthday and none of us will be back (neither will our friends). No point in complaining though - who do you complain to?

It is situated right in the centre of Kirkcaldy, and occupies a building that used to belong to the Post Office. The central post office is no longer there, and the buildings they once owned now house Thunder Road [a popular music bar], Kitty's [a good venue usually with live music], a hotel and further along the street lies The Pane E Vino. It is minutes from the bus and train station, and a large Tesco is diagonal across the road and it is approximately 2 minutes away from the rest of Kirkcaldy's pubs and nightclubs.

The decor is pleasant, and you are usually greeted at the door and shown to a table. They do a great lunch menu; three courses for £6.95, although it is limited to certain dishes.

Where Pane E Vino really come into their own is with their staff. They are friendly, funny and very efficient. The Irish waiter is a legend in his own right. The others are good, if you ignore some of their fake Italian accents!
When they are busy I think you sometimes may feel rushed, as they are very popular and they may want the table. On the plus side, if you tell them politely you are out for a special occasion, they will usually pull out all the stops and leave you alone. They are great during Birthday celebrations, and they will halt all proceedings to play a rendition of 'Happy Birthday to You' and bring you out a cake. All other diners usually join in!

Only one word of caution. When you receive your bill....check it thoroughly. They have been guilty of adding wee extras on that you haven't ordered. Most locals do this as a rule.

I would not recommend Italian Pane E Vino to anyone. I didn't like the atmosphere, it was very loud. The staff are good but I was really disappointed in the food. It would have been OK if you like to eat cheap farmed salmon and a bit of steak that died of natural causes. Also, no cheeseboard as it went mouldy!
