La Salute in Aylesbury Vale

We went for a lovely meal here. Plenty of choice. I had 2 delicious starters (funghi and melanzane) and my friend had the broccoli pasta and we finished with a lemon tart that melted in our mouths. The waiter was very attentive and smiley without being OTT. The toilets were clean. Excellent value for money. I would certainly prefer to spend my money in this charming local restaurant with fresh produce than in one of the large chains in the centre. Thank you.

A proper restaurant in Aylesbury town centre with proper food and service. The creamy Tagliatelle Tartufo was especially good. We loved our visit and have already arranged with friends to return in the next couple weeks.

Lovely food great staff highly recommend

Been a few times now. Food is always excellent and the staff are very attentive and friendly. Great pizzas, pasta and salads. Take away service as well as online deliveries. While we were there, the staff made sure a wheelchair user was able to easily get to her table and made sure she was well looked-after.

I've been here twice- once with a large party to celebrate my birthday and again solo for some drawing practice. Both times service has been exceptional- from the food (I highly recommend the veal) to the friendly and attentive staff, the experience has been lovely and the atmosphere is beautiful. The price is brilliant for the quality and attention to detail- perfect for celebrations, treats and dates. Highly recommend La Salute- my favourite restaurant in Aylesbury by a long shot!! It never misses

First time we have been into this restaurant and what a lovely little place it is. I have lived in Aylesbury for over 15 years and not sure why I hadn’t visited. I read previously that there was a service charge well this is no longer the case but the service is excellent in any event. We ordered goats cheese for starters which was lovely and a calzone and pepperoni pizza. The wine was lovely and the ambience was great. Will definitely come again in the future. Thank you.

Really nice place, very relaxed, attentive staff and lovely spaghetti.

Staff are so friendly and helpful, and the good is amazing 😍 Traditional food with a lovely atmosphere, would highly recommend.

I use to love this place but they must of changed chefs because the pizza is terrible and I can’t finish it because my mouth hurts from chewing so much!

Went there as a reasonably large group and enjoyed food (we were actually surprised how good it was) and service, it could've been a bit faster but it was Saturday night so we had our expectations managed). Great place overall.

AVOID if you want to be treated like human beings! Friday just gone, my boyfriend and I were visiting Aylesbury for the night and he had booked a meal here for the 2 of us… our reservation was booked for 7:30pm. He had received the text to confirm this. We arrived bang on time for our reservation and were met with a very friendly waiter who scoured the list for our booking. Although the name was spelt wrong, our reservation WAS on the list. Due to how busy it seemed, we were told our table would be ready in 5 minutes (they were just waiting for 2 ladies to leave so we could have their table) and as the restaurant was quite small, we were asked to leave and come back in those 5 minutes which of course we obliged as we understand that on a Friday night, things can get very busy! The first red flag we noticed was that straight after we’d left, another couple entered and were seated immediately on a table of four that we’d seen (who I presume was the manager of the restaurant cleaning) just as we were being told to leave and come back. We hung around outside for around 10 minutes and then decide to take a seat slightly up the street in view of the restaurant door with intentions to go back when we saw people leave. Approximately 10-15 minutes later, we are still waiting but then noticed another couple walk in so decided to head in ourselves at the hope that we would now be able to get seated considering it was now 20:00 and our reservation was for 19:30. As we walk in, the two people we’d just seen walk in are waiting to be seen to whilst the two ladies whose table we were told we’d be given are getting up to go. The same waiter we had spoken to cleans and sets up this table, looks us dead in the eyes and proceeds to give this table to the other couple even though he knew we had a booking and had been waiting over half an hour now! He assures us that another table will be ready for us in 5 minutes so we wait those 5 minutes… again, stood in this very small restaurant where the rest of the guests are probably wondering what on earth we’re doing. We watch the waiter rush around, looking as if he was trying to find us a table but then who I presume was the manager proceeded to pull the dirtiest look at the two of us and tell him ‘no’ whilst shaking his finger. We had done absolutely nothing other than what we’d been asked to with a smile on our face but at this point we’d been made to feel so unwelcome and decided to go elsewhere. What is the point of having a booking system if you’re not going to run by it? And it really seems that the people running the place have very poor customer service skills. It’s a real shame because this looked to be a lovely restaurant.

Nice little restaurant with yummy food. They're flexible with the menu, trying to accommodate your preferences. Waiters are super nice but some of them struggle with English language, which is a bit of annoyance. Peculiar burning smell from the kitchen. They automatically add 10% service charge to your bill, which left me a little disappointed - I like to be free to be generous.

Lovely restaurant, food is always really good, busy little restaurant with a friendly atmosphere.

What a lovely hidden gem. The food is marvelous. They would have got 5 on everything if they did something about the toilets 😞

One of our favourite places to go

Food, service and staff awesome.

A very warm welcoming authentic Italian restaurant with excellent food at reasonable prices. Recommended.

Great food and excellent service

Such a lovely place for dinner! So friendly and we had such a wonderful time, and the food is amazing and great value for money!! Definitely a fantastic local restaurant. Gabriele was amazing

First visit. Very impressed. Really good seafood risotto full of flavour with plenty of perfectly cooked shellfish. The service and prices were great.

This is a classic Italian restaurant with nice vegetarian options and relatively reasonable prices. Our waiter was charming, the food was copious if a little rich, and we enjoyed a nicely selected wine. If in town, I’ll definitely go back.

Beautiful food with great portion size , lovely restaurant- wish it was in my own town. Lovely staff and good menu - definitely would recommend

Ordered through Deliveroo and waited for over an hour longer than the estimated delivery time. Tried to call them but could not get through. Contacted Deliveroo and was told that La Salute had cancelled my order without telling me.

Highly recommend coming here. The food people and service was fabulous! Very authentic Italian dining. Will definitely be coming back, 10/10 from us!

First time going to this restaurant at the weekend, wonderful food, service and great value for money. Will definitely be going there again.

The foopd is tasty, italian and the pizza really well made. Thed only place to make pizza napoli proper.

Fantastic food! Would definitely recommend, price was extremely fair too. I would recommend this as a place to visit in Aylesbury

Very good restaurant and very generous. I recommend

Been here a few times. The food has always been great tasting and good value. However, service and atmosphere really let the place down. Zero atmosphere. We actually joked about bringing our own background music. A front window was smashed and there was a massive puddle of water on the floor on the table next to us. Unfortunately the chap serving us had minimal experience and looked extremely disinterested. Shame the atmosphere and service didn't match the food. Lots of potential with a few tweaks

My favourite restaurant in Aylesbury. I repeatedly visit due to the consistently good food, comfortable atmosphere and friendly staff. I have tried the pizza and multiple pasta dishes, all have been excellent. Definitely worth a visit.

Amazing pizza, feels just like the one made in Italy. I have to come back and check the Carbonara ❤️

Lovely staff, lovely atmosphere and lovely food. They source really good ingredients from a good local deli who import straight from Italy and everything is cooked beautifully! We had multiple dishes and every one was a hit, the pizzas are beautiful, the pastas are bursting with flavour, the tiramisu is beautiful and light. Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our night, thank you, and fantastic value for money! Keep it up, you are a credit to the town honestly!

Easily the best restaurant in Aylesbury. Delicious pasta, delicious pizza. Great waiting staff.

Very tasty food based in the heart of Aylesbury town centre. The staff were very friendly and were constantly busy but doing a great job.

Possibly the best pizza I’ve ever had (Volcano - lived up to its name.. 😳) Good job we booked as there was no tables for several groups who hadn't. Great value as well. Thank you

Food was fantastic, staff were polite and friendly. Very well, priced food and drinks, clean and tidy establishment. Would definitely visit again if in the area.

Good place to have Italian if near by. Must recommend veg pasta with add on vegetables should be the element which you should order. Some time veg will delight your tast bites.

Nice Italian restaurant. Went there with a good friend of mine for a catch up. Had a lovely prawn in rich tomato sauce starter with Artisan bread, and a delicious creamy mushroom pasta main course. Followed by pistachio and lovely strawberry ice-cream. Would recommend 🙂

Everything was Ok to good but no more The food is good they service is ok but the place itself needs a spruce up. The toilets need revamping and the decor is tired. The staff are friendly and trained reasonably well the menu is broad and the actual food quite fair.

I have been eating at La Salute for years. I have to say that recently there has been an improvement in service and quality since Gabriele has been managing. Gabriele is professional, friendly and i appreciate his work. I would recommend a visit. Pizzas are delicious!

We visited this lovely restaurant after visiting Aylesbury for the weekend. Greeted by the staff when we arrived. We sat in the window and after a quick read through the menu we ordered a bottle of primitivo (a very good red!) to begin with. Our starters included the rosemary focaccia to go with the cáprese salad & the aubergine in the Napoli sauce. Both were really nice. We then had the chicken in mushroom sauce and my favourite the veal. All was very nice and the roasted potatoes were very moreish! We finished off with a Limoncello & a double espresso with a drop of grappa. Food was great, all the staff couldn’t be more helpful. Grazie mille!

Aylesbury's premier Italian joint. Food was great, Gabriele is a delight.

I ordered 2 pizzas for delivery. I am italian and I was very hopeful looking at the photos. What I received was not pizza! The photos are deceiving... Do not order from here.

Brilliant little place for dinner. We both had pizza and garlic bread. The bread is fantastic !!!!! Will definitely be back

Excellent food, outstanding service!

Food was incredible Service was great A lovely atmosphere Definitely will be going back soon!

Pizzas delivered 30 mins late, squashed and lukewarm. Conflicting stories between driver (particularly unhelpful) and restaurant. Promised refund after complaint. Phoned further two times after no refund received and promised it would be actioned. 11 days later and still no refund. Dishonest or incompetent. Shame, as pizzas on collection previously good. Posted review on Google yesterday and received a very standard 'we value your feedback' response, but nothing addressing refund. To the owner: I'll keep posting this review on different sites until you refund me (or at least tell me what you're doing about it).

Lovely restaurant, food is always hot and super fresh. The staff are wonderful- so friendly and accommodating. This is our go-to for date nights. Highly recommend! ⭐️

We booked to make sure we had a table as it was a Friday night but ended up getting there early - this was not a problem at all and we were seated straightaway. By about 7pm though it was pretty busy so would still recommend booking to avoid disappointment. Our whole experience there was great - the staff were friendly and pleasant, the food menu had a good amount of choices to suit everyone's taste and the overall atmosphere was really welcoming and nice. The food was plentiful, hot and very tasty and the service was neither slow or rushed. This was our first visit here and based on our experience we will definitely go back, and would not hesitate to recommend to others.

Great cuisine and friendly service. We went for pizza before the Waterside show. Perfect choice

Went there for lunch with a lady friend - loved it

Had diner there on a Thursday early evening. Wife and I had pizza and daughter the lasagne. Very tasty pizza, lovely dough, very pleasant and friendly waiter. 5 stars from us.

Nice place to have a pizza and a bottle of wine.

If I could give zero stars I would, this was our first experience with this restaurant and it was for my husbands birthday. Ordered two pizzas to have for dinner to celebrate and after ordering at 6:30, our food was delivered at 9 pm and ice cold!!! I called multiple times to get updates, there was a man on the phone that said he would call me back with an update from the driver but he never did! I phoned half hour later to find out our order hadn’t even left with a driver! The service over the phone was poor and I had to keep calling to get updates. I then got told I would get a call the next morning from their manager to speak to me about the issue and he never called either! Never had such a bad customer service experience! The pizza was way too salty and well, it was frozen by the time it got to us. It has ruined the evening I planned for my hus and and I and I will not recommend this place to anyone going forward.

This was my first visit. Very impressed with the service which was really personal and attentive. As an Italian myself, I'm a bit fussy about my pizzas, but this one really lived up to expectations - it was delicious and enormous!! I will definitely be making another visit.

The service is absolutely fabulous and so quick to arrive. The food is astonishing.

Starter was good, unfortunately pizza was dripping with grease and the middle was completely soggy. Atmosphere zero as no other ppl were there apart from us. Prices at least ok

Food is sooooo good! Had a great time and amazing food in a lovely atmosphere. The waitress was lovely, we will definitely be back!

Great little restaurant in the town centre. Could do with a porch to stop the cold wind coming in during the winter, and waited a while to pay the bill, but otherwise zero complaints. Lively atmosphere, great tasting food, and definitely has an Italian air to it. A lot of the food tasted to me like it was freshly made. Will be back again.

Great food, and quite a few variety of pizza, which are very tasty

Popped in for lunch, food was nice, nothing amazing but nice, could have done with more for the price.

Great place for some Italian food. Super busy when we went.

Avoid this restaurant if you want to have a good day.

I ordered a Tiramisu and was awfull ,didn't taste at all like Tiramisu, no coffee,no mascarpone,and on the top was cinnamon which was horrible, and the cream was made from milk and gris. All this for 7.95.

Busy Italian restaurant, lots of atmosphere and friendly staff and of course great food😀

Four of us ate. None of us were impressed with our food. The Penne Salmon Pasta was without salmon, even allowing for the fact that the salmon was flaked. The Cannoli Pasta seemed to be filled with sausage meat? The staff were not receptive to our feedback. The food whilst not awful did not justify the price tag.

Name a better Italian in Aylesbury, I’ll wait.

Great food great service. Best coffee in town for sure. Authentic Italian food.

Friendly atmosphere but unfortunately pizza looked and tasted like it had come from a supermarket. It was runny. Ok if you're hungry but not really acceptable for a restaurant. Sorry.

Had dinner at this gorgeous little Italian restaurant with a friend recently. Delicious food and attentive staff. Thoroughly recommended.

Loved the atmosphere and food was epic.

Love the food and the service was amazing

Best place to enjoy good food !

The cost wouldn’t be an issue if fair portion size & good taste but to me it was quite bland and disappointing.

Indulging in the authentic flavors of Italy is a true pleasure at this local Aylesbury gem. The Italian restaurant's offerings are nothing short of delicious – each dish feels like a journey to the heart of Italy itself. From the first bite to the last, the flavors transport you to a culinary paradise. The cozy atmosphere of the restaurant adds to the experience, making it an ideal spot for a cozy dinner with loved ones. But what truly sets this place apart is the friendly staff. Their warm hospitality creates an inviting environment that makes you feel like part of the family. If you're a lover of genuine Italian cuisine, this restaurant is an absolute must-visit. From the flavors to the ambiance, it's a little slice of Italy right in Aylesbury. Buon appetito! 🍝🇮🇹🍷

I think there is not to much space but everything else was perfect specially, service

Recommend this as a great place to eat in Aylesbury.

Had a wonderful dinner to celebrate our daughter passing her diploma in law. Atmosphere was wonderful service was great and all plates were empty 😁. Thanks for a great night

Not from around here but fancied a proper Italian pizza! The food looked good online, but collected a very dissapointing pizza. The dough wasn't fresh and the pizza was bland unfortunately, looked and tasted like a pizza you'd buy from the supermarket 🙄

Lovely meal out with family. Booked in advance which was just as well as the place is popular

Nice family fun restaurant. With Italian food, although a possibly French name. Freshly made food, and was able to cater for dietary requirements. Pricing was ok, although drinks were quite expensive. Really friendly service and was able to make dishes that accommodated our needs.

Fab food. Excellent service. Great value for money.

Popped in for dinner service was amazing the staff were friendly and polite great atmosphere food was beautiful well presented fresh and so tasty !

The food here is good and the service is fast and friendly, however we were sat at a table for 2 in the window and the sun was shining through, it was ridiculously warm. Better air conditioning and sun blinds would be good. The toilet facilities could do with some T.L.C. as well.

Nice pizza and the place is quite not many people. The staff is very friendly.

OMG. Been 7yrs since I last visited and I won't be leaving it that long again. Service with a smile and gr8 attitude. Food mouth watering and popping in the mouth with flavours All freshly cooked food. Even with them having no pizzas available 2day it made no difference to my experience or review. Thank you guys Im the words of Arnie "I'll b back"

The food was nice but the waiter was almost non existent. Other than one other couple it was empty. I like to big up the staff in my reviews but this guy was appalling.

Freshly prepared Italian food, fabulous service and well priced. My sons restaurant of choice for every birthday. Can thoroughly recommend

We booked for a pre theatre dinner, it was a cute little place & we had a delightful young waiter. Unfortunately they had had work done over the weekend which meant a limited menu. However limited we all enjoyed our selections which actually tasted of authentic Italian cuisine.

The pizza I had was reasonably nice however the amount of salt that was in it must have been horrendous as woke up at 04:00hrs so thirsty I drank a litre of water straight down.

I had a pizza there yesterday, and it was fantastic. The best pizza I've had was in dubrovnik old town. La Salute came a close second. Sorry guys. 😀

Everytime I have a meal here I am wow’ed! Great tasting food and Amy’s service is amazing! She’s interactive and polite, always there for a drink too up

Pizzas were fantastic highly recommend

First time in this little restaurant but had a wonderful evening Great food, good wine and staff were very friendly 😋

Wow wow wow great food great service me and the wife’s first time on a special day and it perfect well recommended

A really lovely meal, best quality and most friendly staff.

Undoubtedly excellent pizzas. The menu has a lot of good choices of other food too, including vegetarian and vegan options. Lots of dessert and drink choices. The chefs are from Napoli so that may be why the food is so authentic. We were too full for dessert this time but we previously ate panettone with coffee, and it was lovely. The servers are accommodating and friendly. Service is good and we didn't wait long. Prices are not cheap, but they are fair. The decor is basic but comfortable. The main door doesn't seem to close properly, so make sure you don't sit near it on a cold day. The background music was slightly surreal, but not intrusive. Parking is adequate nearby and there are lots of bars and takeaways in the area too.

It was a SUPERB meal! The staff were fantastic and their recommendations were spot-on!

Great spot in Aylesbury if you're into Italian cuisine. Fair prices and quality of food is excellent. Quick service and nice atmosphere. You'll feel welcomed.
