Giacomo's Ristorante Italiano in Sevenoaks - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Brilliant as ever. Another superb evening at Giacomos. So enjoy going there. Nothing is too much trouble August 2024 Another superb evening at Giacomo's. Food excellent. Staff brilliant. Atmosphere fantastic. Always happy to go there

Amazing taste and friendly staff. Strongly recommended and looking forward to visiting again.

Beautiful surroundings. Very friendly service. Food outstanding. Must visit restuarant experience.

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at Giacomo's after looking for somewhere new to dine. If you're looking for good quality, authentic Italian dishes, a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and excellent service then this is the place!

Nice. Good fresh food. Needs a little more ambiance. Perhaps some wallpaper music.

Slightly oldy worldly, not in a bad way. Very friendly personal service. One of our favourites.

Lovely food with fresh crab and great ravioli - accommodated us last minute and the desserts tray is amazing! Great service too!

Celebration of a 70th birthday for six of us. A most enjoyable evening professionally presented and executed by the team front of house and Giacomo running the show from the kitchen

This is a lovely restaurant. My family has been going here for years. I can't praise the food highly enough and the staff are so friendly and attentive. It can get noisy when they have large groups.

Absolutely brilliant. Food was fresh & very tasty. Its a must if you want a special celebration.

Absolutely superb restaurant with really tasty true Italian dishes, great wines and excellent service. Would highly recommend.

An unexpectedly brilliant find. We will return.

A bit of Italy in The weald - Sevenoaks. What a wonderful find - which was recommended by family who were as impressed as I was. Five stars on everything from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. Could write a long list of everything that was perfect but will leave it to - just try for yourself. Although a bit of a journey for me I will most definitely be returning.

Well worth a visit, excellent house wines, first rate food and very friendly staff.

Italy in Kent. Amazing food and service

Will never eat here as you have calfs liver on the menu

What a fantastic restaurant. This is the best Italian restaurant I have ever been to. Great food & service. Well worth the drive to get there. Highly recommend.

One of my favourite restaurants, cannot recommend this place, staff are super friendly and the food does not disappoint!

Fabulous birthday surprise to a Mama Mia party given by a friend! The food and atmosphere was worth it. Cannot wait for our next visit again, family run and mama made the meatballs!

Had our wedding anniversary there just loved it . Real Italian food . Will be back .

Food is nice but Giacomo is tense and unkind to his staff. We had to wait 40mins before our orders were taken which was also very unpleasan.

Always a delicious meal and the dessert trolley a real temptation!

Service was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious. Well worth a second visit.

Food smashing, ambience a little odd

Thoroughly enjoyed the first visit

Just had the most fantastic lunch at a genuine Italian restaurant. The service was outstanding and with a smile. The food was out of this world with an extensive menu and unique dishes. Will definitely be coming back.

Great local restaurant tucked away quietly in the countryside. Excellent Italian service complemented with a classy menu, offering fresh dishes and flavours. Highly recommended and family Italian feel comes shining through.

Also, have their own carpark plenty of room. outstanding food outstanding staff outstanding atmosphere 👏 5 ☆☆☆☆☆ Thank you all so much

A real Italian restaurant with a passionate and dedicated chef, top class staff that serves authentic Italian recipes. My favourite is aubergine parmesan (melanzane parmigiana) perfectly layered aubergines served with full flavour of home made tomato sauce and parmesan cheese . It has a very elegantly decorated, relax atmosphere with a beautiful garden. Highly recommended Hope to see you soon again.

Good starters, service was okay. The pasta mains were good, the prawns - I would take it or leave it. Not worth the price.

This is a place you must visit, excellent all-around first class, good value for money.

Authentic Italian restaurant well worth a visit.

Went there for my friends birthday looking forward to our evening meal but left very dissatisfied. Food wasn't upto standard for the price and felt like I'd been transported back into the 1980s. Food wasn't hot and presentation was a joke. Will not recommend or return

Great visit. The food was lovely. The staff welcoming and friendly. We would definitely go again.

It is not easy to get a last-minute reservation but well worth perseverance. Atmosphere fantastic, as is the food. Fast becoming our favourite Italian restaurant, anywhere! Thanks to Giacomo and all the staff. See you soon.....

The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food is amazing. Right up there with the best calamari and lasagna I've ever had!

Can't think of any better restaurant than this one. Yes, it's not cheap, but you should always be prepared to pay the right price for excellent quality. We spent a thoroughly enjoyable evening at dinner with family (special occasion); the food and service could not be faulted...I'm already planning another 'special occasion' if I can think of one!

Food is unbelievable here. All home made and spot on 👌 Thank you Giacomo ❤️ Staff are brilliant, very friendly and attentive. Plenty of parking right outside.

Great food, very welcoming and really friendly staff. We had a lovely lunch here, highly recommended.

Excellent food, very good service, and a wonderful venue with beautiful garden. Big fans of his place!

Been trying to get here for a while now lovely Christmas meal with the family food wine and service 2nd to none... we'll be back! Thanks Giacomo and sooo lovely to see you xxx

As an experienced diner who regularly eats at Al la Carte restaurants every Saturday evening I was lucky to come across Giacomos when searching for somewhere different to try. Crisp white linen table cloths were greatly appreciated as so many restaurants think it is trendy to eat from formica tables despite claiming to be high end. Since our first visit during which we could not fault a single thing we immediately booked to come back within the next two weeks. The staff are friendly and attentive, but not intrusive, and the food is good quality beautifully cooked. At the time there was a small party celebrating a birthday who were all enjoying themselves and from an onlooker received excellent service throughout right down to the end of their meal when they were served champagne. This week we discussed how lovely the lighting is, not too bright but a warm glow. I have eaten every variety of meat they have on the menu. The liver, veal. steak and lamb were all cooked to perfection. It is also nice to see people made an effort in the way they dressed which not only showed respect for the restaurant but for other diners. Who wants to see workman's jeans when you have dressed suitably for a lovely evening meal in stylish surroundings, keep them for the burger bar. .

Sat 12th Nov. Food was excellent, good quality ingredients cooked to perfection. Also a nice selection of dishes. Service was very good.

Took my wife for her birthday surprise. Had a lovely time. Food is fantastic and service just friendly enough without being intrusive . Enjoyed it so much that we immediately made a booking for Sunday's Opera Evening. Took a couple who had not been there before and they enjoyed it as much as we did. Thanks to Giacomo and all his staff for a delicious meal and great entertainment. WE WILL BE BACK!!

Lovely Italian restaurant, great food and wonderful people. You're made to feel welcome the moment you step through the door.

Food served was served lukewarm. Dishes very expensive Though projected as a "Posh" restaurant in many ways, it certainly is not so. I will not visit this place again.

Love this restaurant, food is exceptional, service excellent highly recommend

Mine and my husbands favourite restaurant. The food and service is 10* Beautiful location as well as a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommended

Amazing food great service lovely setting

Amazing food and amazing stuff very lovely huge wine menu .

Always lovely food and superb service.

THE Italian restaurant to go to in Kent!

Excellent - staff are so friendly and helpful and the food is outstanding we had the sea bass and skate it was the best we have ever tasted we will certainly be regulars

Excellent service, disabled parking and access, very friendly staff, excellent menu choice, very high quality food, pleasant atmosphere and spacious, with tables spread quite far apart, providing a sense of more private dining. Highly recommended

The most accommodating restaurant, food excellent, service impeccable, atmosphere 1st class.

Best Italian restaurant in Sevenoaks, nay, best in Kent. Giacomo's love for food really shows, from pretty starters to substantial mains, everything done with dollops of Italian class. A real Italian experience.

Opera and Carol singing evening with reduced menu. Great food/service, brilliant evening!

Good experience night and good food and service.

Very popular. Needed to book in advance. Deposit needed to secure reservation. Food and service very good. Specials presented to the table. Desserts on a trolley. Enjoyed the whole experience

Cozy and elegant restaurant with authentic amazing Italian food

Firstly this is not a cheap place, neither in money or the experience of Italian cuisine. Very friendly team as you enter, not strained, genuinely there to serve in a comfortable but professional manner. The ambience is nice but I prefer to focus on the food. The knowledge the staff have of their menu, the origins from different parts of Italy, adds to the experience. The food was sublime, presented well, cooked perfectly and a taste for everyone. The wine list, again not cheap was excellent ( They ask your preference before you sit so your wine can breathe) I have eaten in some fantastic restaurants in Italy, mostly in Florence and this team can match them in every way. I will definitely go back and will encourage others to visit.

Quality food, excellent service. We tried calamari and timballo di avocado for starters, fegato alla veneziana, branzino grigliato, gamberoni al prosceco and ravioli from the mains. Excellent desserts! Everything was delicious.

Fantastic food and service. Thank you.

Tried to call and rearrange a few times with the restaurant but could not get through with no answerphone. I was then sent very aggressive emails when I did not show. Such a shame as heard great things but customer service leads a lot to be desired.

Great Italian restaurant, excellent food and service fantastic. Highly recommend.

An Outstanding Restaurant for Excellent Food and Customer Service.. The team on arriving made us feel so Welcome and the whole experience felt personal.. Will definitely be returning as felt like this is the Normal as Consistency is everything to me.. Just Fantastic Thanks Team Giacomo

Fantastic location, very intimate and great food!!!

The most fabulous lunch celebrating a very special lady. The food was out of this world . Mouth watering Flavours, the staff and management made us feel like part of the family . I only wish we lived closer .

What a nice family-owned restaurant! We have visited it twice so far and every visit was something to remember. Really good quality food and service.

our first visit but not our last.excellent food,wonderful staff.a gem of a restaurant

As usual it was perfect. Food was very good.

Excellent food & very friendly staff. Made us feel very welcome.

It was wonderful to eat in a restaurant after such a long time. We have eaten in a few pubs since lockdown lifted but this was a treat. The service was very diligent we had four different members of the team working our table. The ambiance created by hearing the staff greeting us in Italian and using that language in the background to converse added to an illusion that we might not be in the uk. The decorations of the restaurant was smart but of 20 year old tastes. The colours were not the more popular muted grey shades and there was a very dated metal artwork of cooking pots over the fireplace. While in contrast the toilets were very chic and clever design. The Food. I had the mussels as starter which were sublime. I loved the very modern finger bowl, it raised an eyebrow and was a talking point. There was a lovely touch when the manager showed us a platter covered with cling film with the fresh seafood on display. And indeed the sea bass was large and very tasty. So why only four stars ? There was no wow moment. The food tasted lovely and was good helpings. But the presentation was dull. There was not a single person in the restaurant so amazed by the beauty of their plate they took a photo for social media. For example the dessert trolly was piled with lovely tarts etc. When we made our choice it was cut, placed on a plate and taken to the kitchen. I thought perhaps to dress and return on a glass plate with a garnish of soft fruit berries a lattice work of liquid chocolate maybe a gentle dusting of some sort. But no, it returned exactly as it was with a scoop of ice cream. Now I realise what I have described would not add to the taste. However it would add to the experience. It might be a generation thing and the restaurant is set up for the older generation ( which I am). In short the food was excellent and would return definitely yes.

Great service and excellent food.

The best restaurant in the UK. Qualified staff, authentic Italian food, professionalism and everything you want when you want to eat something good Italian. I kept thinking about the whole pandemic when the restaurant reopens to come with the family to eat something good.

Excellent meal as always. Would recommend to all our friends. Five star dinning definitely. Lovely staff & Excellent chef / Host.

Lovely old school Italian, never disappointed. Can't wait to go back!

Thank goodness it's open again. Traditional Italian cooking as shaped by English demands. Accurately prepared, completely delicious and so reliable in an area underserved by stable fine dining. The service is a hallmark here. It shows what good things can happen when one person whose name is on the restaurant takes responsibility.

It’s wonderful to have Giacomo’s open again. The same excellent service and food that we have always expected from Giacomo’s and his staff. Having this restaurant back is a sign that we are headed back to normality. (Pan Buckley)

Extremely good food. Staff very friendly and top notch cleanliness. Rating top marks

Highly recommend, what a fantastic place and the food is amazing.

Fantastic Italian restaurant. Clear to see the passion of the owner and team. Very popular with locals. Always a warm welcome, honest cooking and interesting wines. Lockdown home dining is one of the best ones we've found locally.

Just picked up what I know will be another fantastic Italian takeaway from Giacomos. Do your self a big treat and have a takeaway from Giacomo. Ciao

Giacomo's was a wonderful experience last night. The current arrangements are carefully thought through and the staff are professional, reassuring and charming. The food was, of course, absolutely delicious! We had arancini, carpaccio, sea bass and melanzane, and magnificent desserts - apple tart and lemon creme patisserie filled tart. Can't wait to go back! Thank you.

Fantastic as always, you are all amazing. See you all again very soon.

Superb food choice, well presented great staff

Perfect venue for a special evening . Food excellent and staff so pleasant and attentive to your needs.

The best independent restaurant in Maidstone with an amazing wine list

As always a warm family welcome complimented by the finest freshest exquisite food served by truly friendly staff. Thank goodness that Giacomos has reopened. A true gem Adam

Our favourite restaurant. Top food, Great and friendly service.

My family recently ordered from Giacomo’s takeaway menu and it was fantastic. The staff were lovely, friendly and super fast at replying. I cannot fault them in any way. We ordered a lot including several starters, mains and desserts and not once were we let down. I was surprised with how cheap it was considering my dad ordered lobster! Highly recommend!!!

Superb food and plenty of it, very good ambiance nicely served

Superb food in superb, high class environment.
