Visited tonight. Hadn't booked. Lucky to get a table as it was very busy. Very friendly lady who greeted us and took us to our table. Ordered a veggie pasta dish and the fillet of steak. Beautiful food. Lovely ambience. The waitresses were very attentive throughout our stay. As was the gentleman who brought our drinks out. Will definitely return again.

The food was great, really tasty and a good portion size. The staff were very attentive, if possibly a little too efficient as we were 2 courses down within 35 mins of getting there! The restaurant had a really good vibe about it, not at all pretentious and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The only negative for me was the VAT not being included on the prices. Just weird. But don’t let this put you off, a great meal out and I’d certainly go again.

Quite a traditional Italian interior, staff very nice. However, the dishes we had were a little spartan, my husband had a pasta dish Penne al Pollo with chicken which was very low on chicken, and I had a dish off the specials, slow cooked beef cannelloni in a tomato sauce which again was a bit lacking in substance, so much so that I asked for bread to mop up the sauce which though basic was very tasty. I was asked if I wanted a loaf or slices? I said slices, expecting the usual small crusty slices cut from something like a baguette as is usual. Instead I got two very cold slices of thick white sliced bread, glad I didn’t ask for a loaf? What was that about? There were two dishes not available and the owner apparently does not give out his wifi code. The food came out very quickly, too quickly to be honest, I know that may sound odd, but it gave the impression that things were pre-prepared and waiting to go out, that, along with the lack of the usual bread, (which by the way is usually on the table when you sit down in every Italian restaurant we have ever been in, often accompanied by olives) made us feel that it was only playing at it, though I do know that this restaurant has been in Bowness for years, and we had been before a few years ago and it was much better then.

Visited last Sunday evening after a recommendation, quite busy on arrival but seated within a couple of minutes. Brilliant service from start to finish, I had the duck and the wife had tarragon chicken both were excellent and we shared garlic bread with tomato which for a man of a certain age I thought it was the best I’d ever had, oh and the man who served the drinks was lovely and very handsome 😂 so all in all don’t hesitate to visit here it’s a winner winner chicken dinner , Chou

Over priced … Ordered ravioli off the specials board, sounded lovely, and tasted nice… HOWEVER 7 slightly filled pieces of ravioli in sauce for a main meal for £17.95 before tax… not worth it at all, thankfully as a couple we ordered a pizza too (base seemed shop bought) and had eaten a late lunch. If we had both ordered the ravioli we would have been starving!!! Forgot a picture at the start… but picture of half the meal!

In one word, disappointing ! It's not great when the only decent part of the meal was the garlic bread ! This place is constantly fully booked and I am scratching my head pondering why. There is no way any Italian has had a hand in the meals going out from this kitchen. The pasta, pizza and main courses are bland and poorly seasoned. The chicken dishes come with a passable sauce but no Italian would eat or serve vegetables like this - plain boiled cauli and other vegetables, no olive oil, no butter, no seasoning, no herbs or spices - literally like straight out of a freezer bag of veg and just boiled. I guess if you can fill the restaurant with holidaymakers there's little incentive to do better. Dessert featured literally the very worst tiramisu I have ever tasted. Most likely bought in, and literally no espresso/coffee or marsala to taste whatsoever, just a gooey mess of cream, mascarpone and chocolate sauce (!!) with some soggy sponge. Honestly, a Zizzi is far, far better and that is not authentic Italian either but at least they season things. Honestly, the very high ratings of this restaurant are making me question whether there is any point looking at Tripadvisor ratings. In this case believe the 1 and 2* reviews, trust me, if you like proper Italian cooking. If you like "Italian cooked for English" food, fine, tuck in. I wouldn't have minded so much if this place was reasonably priced either, but the meat dishes in particular are pretty expensive.

We visit this restaurant every time we visit Bowness. A wonderful restaurant with fabulous food made with top quality ingredients at great prices. Definitely a favourite and highly recommended. Always busy so advisable to book if you can. Great chatting with the lovely staff, always make you feel welcome. Exceptional service. Great to meet Leon, our barman who we enjoyed talking to. We will be back

Went on TripAdvisor recommendation and NOT disappointed! Staff very pleasant and obliging. Wine very good and served at a good temperature. Starter pizza with tomato was one of the nicest we’ve ever had. Chicken livers were plentiful and delicious ( suggest they serve with crusty bread, not toast) Starter portions of lasagne and tempura prawns were very nice. A very pleasant experience, thank you Rastelli

I had the pleasure of visiting Rastelli last night and I can honestly say it was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. We were greeted by such a lovely friendly woman who proved to be a hero later on in the evening too! Everyone there was so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us and the food was exceptional! Me and my daughter had pizza, but the other food coming out looked fabulous particularly the steaks. I just want to say a massive thank you again as we had to leave earlier than liked as my daughter managed to spill pizza all over her white outfit and they did everything they could to order us a taxi and the original lady who had greeted us came out of the restaurant and across the road to check we were ok and offered to order another for us as it didn’t turn up. There are not many places that genuinely provide such warm hospitality as well as amazing food!!!!! If we come back again we will definitely pay them a visit.

We loved that you could order online for free delivery! We had garlic bread which was fine. I ordered a bbq chicken & sweetcorn pizza which was good & my partner was thrilled to bits to be able to have a seafood pizza as some places have stopped offering fish options. Can’t comment on the restaurant other than passing it on the street & it being a good size & busy which we took as a good sign. Delivery man was friendly and food arrived on time. We opted to support local rather than go for dominos and we were happy with our choice.

Having visited Rastelli last year, we wanted you to return during our latest visit to Windermere. Booking is a must if you do not want to be disappointed at the door, and once your booking has been made you are sure for a very warm welcome from Nina. A family run Italian the menu has something for everyone. Inside there’s a lovely atmosphere, with traditional Italian decor and seating for around 40-50 covers. Every member of staff makes you feel welcome and valued from the moment you walk through the door to the time you leave. A special call out to Amelia who looked after us tonight. Her friendly smile is infectious and she is a credit to this close knit team. Meals are freshly prepared in the open kitchen and the choice is superb, pasta, pizza, steaks and succulent chicken dishes the plenty to choose from. Should you not have a big appetite there is a choice of smaller portions. We chose the Camembert starter followed by chicken in a mushroom, cream and brandy sauce. Dessert was the caramel cheesecake. With a drink each and coffee our bill was a little over £75.00. A short walk up the hill out of the centre of Bowness make sure this is on your list to visit

This place has been sitting at the top of the main road in Bowness for as long as I can remember ( probably longer) and I’ve always fancied a visit, but always ended up going to places towards the bottom of town. We finally found an excuse to go to this Italian as we were going for a late screening in the cinema over the road. I’m glad to say it was definitely worth the wait. We turned up around 6:30 and the service was excellent from the get go. The staff were really friendly and super-efficient. The place has a wonderfully traditional atmosphere and you just know as soon as you enter that you’re in for something special. We had starters from the specials board ( I had steak strips in lemon sauce - amazing!). My wife had prawns which she loved. For mains, I had a spagetti alla matriciana, a huge portion and packed with flavour, and my wife had a chicken in taragon sauce dish which she said was one of the best dishes she’s ever had in any Italian restaurant. Lovely desserts to finish, all washed down with an excellent Chianti. An excellent meal in an excellent restaurant, we will definitely make a bee-line for it the next time we’re in town.

We ate here and had pizza. It was average. It hit the spot but wasn’t an amazing pizza and not the freshest I’ve ever had. It was fine. There was a medical emergency when we were there and the staff were good. They didn’t handle...

We arrived at 5pm with a 5 year old and a four month old baby. The waiting staff were so friendly, kind and accomodating. The pizzas were fabulous too! Thank you, we really enjoyed our visit

Called in for dinner. Not sure where all the positive reviews come from, food very average and surprising they don't make their own pasta and use buy in pizza bases aka takeaways. Lasagne was passable but sure there must be better options elsewhere.

We have been going to Rastellis for 20 plus years and our meal for 8 last night was great from start to finish. Two of us will probably be back again during the week!

We visited here in November and just sat down at the right time as a large table came just after us ! The food was lovely and the service was great. We would definitely go again.

Loved it, the food and wine was amazing. I had the Muscles Marinara to start and it was really good. Hopefully I will be returning many times. Thank you for a lovely evening.

We chose the Pub from our Holiday Home visitors book in nearby Crook. An excellent choice we made, a warm welcome from the staff, in particular the lovely young waitress with a slight Liverpudlian accent and a Reds fan, she showed great skill in dealing with her customers. Very tasty food in a warm and pleasant atmosphere.
