This has been my favourite place to go out for a nice meal throughout the years. Food is always excellent with the pizzas tasting authentic, service is also very good. 10/10 would highly recommend.

Lovely place and service is good, but the food is totally overpriced. Mine wasn't very hot and not that special. If bread or olives would be included that would be fine, but they charge extra for that at, yes, top prices.

I really love Girasole but this evening it really struck me just how polite and attentive the staff are. They do a fantastic job. Food is always exceptional. How lucky are we to have such a fine Italian restaurant here in St Neots. The only thing that would make it even better for me is if they started doing gluten free pizzas 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Horrific! Served raw food, when we complained their owner came to the table and shouted at us! Disgusting attitude, terrible restaurant.

I have never had a risotto like it. Opted for the risotto al frutti di mare as I normally love seafood risotto. It was stodgy, gritty and peppery. I was disappointed. The service and atmosphere were spot on though.

First dinner out visiting the UK, friends brought me here. I ordered the penne salmone as a main and the tiramisu for dessert. Both were very lovely! The tiramisu really took it for me. Best I've had (:

Lovely find. Food was pretty good. Someone needs to get the chef on a salad dressing course. I had to ask for olive oil and balsamic. Dressing the salads would make a big difference. We would go back. Maybe I’ll go and show the chef how to dress a salad 🤣

Visited mid week so wasn't massively busy. Starters were decent but my main (risotto) was bland and tasteless, a real disappointment, my partners main was delicious however. The garlic bread didn't really taste of garlic. Service was good and prices fair

What a gem. On a father and daughter day I was taken for a lunchtime treat Italian restaurant. Tucked away down an unassuming dead-end side street off the market square. Wasn't obvious a restaurant was there, I said are you sure we are going the right way? Led by my daughter we entered il Girasole. A lovely Italian restaurant. Pleasantly greeted we were shown to our prebooked table. We had our starters breads dipping oils and olives. Three different dipping breads, sesamee twist, tomato bread & focaccia. Which later, during our main course, we could see the breads being freshly made and baked. Our main, recommend by my daughter whom had been here a few times before, was breaded king prawn linguine with a creamy mushroom and cherry tomato sauce finished with a sprinkle of red chilli. So nice. There was banter with the owner I think, over the grating of this huge block of parmesan cheese. Interior decor is tired if not authentic, adding to the ambience. I am taken by this restaurant and will definitely be returning very soon. Highly recommend. Afterwards, ice cream in hand, we watched a few bands, musicians and artist perform on the market square. A perfect day. 🙂

Il Girasole - definitely underwhelmed for a birthday meal with friends. Couldn't decide whether waiter was hard of hearing or simply didn't understand the order of garlic bread to be brought out with the mains. That was the evening highlight. The gnocci was inedible, the spaghetti chopped up, as though for a child, and the atmosphere non existent. It was hottest day in September so the lack of atmosphere can be excused, but white wine spritzer with ice, served in 3 glasses, really? Beer £8 a pint, too. I don't like being harsh, but the place needs to up its game. I'm sure that others have had a much better experience but I felt let down.

This is a lovely little restaurant with and authentic feel. The food was OK, I don't think I ordered the right dish. My partner had the Gnocchi con Pancetta which was delicious. I had the Linguine Marinara which was very disappointing. The prawn hadn't been deveined and the calamari and mussels were overcooked. Aside from that I was expecting a creamier sauce - this was my own fault since the menu said "Linguine with mussels, calamari, prawns and clams, cooked with chillies, garlic ,white wine and cherry tomatoes" Aside from the problems with the dish I think it would've been good just not for me. If I come here again I'll definitely be trying something else! P.S. The Aperol Spritz was great!

Nice little local eatery. The food is decent. A little underwhelming for the price but perfectly eatable. The pizza looked very nice. A bit more imagination in the dressing and variety in the textures of the salad items would make a world of difference. Maybe something apart from basic mixed leaves from a bistro salad bag with a bit of sweet balsamic dressing under the roasted veggies… A little cheese, a few roasted pine nuts, a little crunch from some seeds. A little fragrant walnut oil. All would help liven things up a bit. House Merlot very drinkable. Tiramisu, I would definitely give a miss and try something else on the dessert menu - then again it is Italian food, so not much call for puddings! On the super positive side, the service is absolutely first class. I was looked after brilliantly with kindness and attention without being over-fussy. Fabulous. If I came again, and I think I would just for the friendly welcome, I think I’d just stick to the pizzas and the pasta and enjoy the perfect service. Oh, and on my way out I spotted a sign saying they are breast-feeding friendly. That’s a great sign of a family restaurant in my books.

The food was good everyone enjoyed their meal. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would say the starters could be a little bigger. I had the seafood stew it was good but would be nicer to have a little calamari, fish and baby octopus. As it was clams muscles and prawns only. Overall I did enjoy my experience here!

This small Italian restaurant deserves 5☆on my first visit with my hubby and 2 family members on a Saturday about 2pm for food & service but for atmosphere only 3☆ as too empty !

This was the first time of me and the good lady but it came highly recommend with our other guest who is a local to the picturees town of St neots, from the warm welcome to the attentive service staff this a great restaurant it is not high dinning but it does not clame to be, but it really has that warm friendly atmosphere, the good lady is a mussel connicer and these did not disappoint so much so that she had two portions after tasting the first course, if I had one tiny tiny criticism is that the mixed starter was not dressed with any oils or balmastic but it was only a small thing. I would lie to give a big shout out to Chloe, Emilla, and the pizza barista marchlo they were all exceptional in there roles attentive but not over bearing. So in conclusion this is a great Italian restaurant and areal gem in a small x market town. Well worth a visit.

Really attentive staff that were fantastic with handling intolerances, double checking everything. Arrabbiata was extremely tasty and the broccoli side is deeply and sweetly garlicky. The decor is great; they've really made it feel like a courtyard restaurant but if you're facing the fire exit the view isn't as inspiring, and at times the general volume was difficult to bear or to hear over. I'd definitely go again, but try for a less busy time so it's possible to converse without shouting or repeating ourselves.

Visited 3 times now and for the most part it's all very positive. I did have a pasta dish with chicken and cheese, unfortunately the chicken was dry and the sauce was a bit too rich for me. However, I put that down to a one off as everything else I have had was really good. Will continue to visit as the staff are great and it has a lovely feel and atmosphere.

Went for lunch on Sunday afternoon 4 Adults and a baby. The interior felt classical but not stuffy, the decor is quite dark but creates a nice atmosphere and feels relaxed. It has the vibe that you could have wondered in off the esplanade of a Mediterranean beach strip. Air con was keeping the place chilled and not at all sticky on a warm day. The food was very nice, felt authentic and was prepared in just the right amount of time, I had the calzone which was a very hearty meal. The staff were very attentive and friendly they alway made us feel welcome. I often feel anxious about dining out with the baby but the smiley staff put us at ease and we could all enjoy our lunch. Well done and thank you 👍🙂👌

My partner and I have been to Di Rita’s on a handful of occasions. Our go to is normally the pasta dishes, specifically their meatballs and pasta, which is exceptional! However, on our latest occasion, we both took advantage of their pizza offer. The pizza was absolutely fantastic! Fresh, soughdough based pizza which tasted amazing. You cannot beat homemade authentic pizza. Probably the best pizza I have had in Cambridgeshire. The service and choice of wine is always brilliant too. We look forward to our next visit!
