Sebastian's Italian in Windsor and Maidenhead

Went with friends early evening and it was packed. Lovely vibe, great service, excellent food - couldn’t ask for more 😊😊

Great restaurant with friendly and efficient service lovely atmosphere , nice wine and the best pizza and tiramisu ! Thank you

Had a wonderful bit meal, food was fantastic atmosphere authentic and service was superb, thank you making my birthday special

very good Italian - we had a selection of pasta/pizza and salad, all delicious. speedy and friendly service. Would recommend

Delicious pizza, great service and extremely accommodating for a quick meal pre theatre! Love supporting local independent businesses!

Very good food. Wine very expensive for average Chianti. This Italian restaurant in Old Windsor serves good food but the wine is unjustifiably expensive

Siamo stati in questo locale per due volte in una settimana perché il cibo è ottimo: pizza eccezionale e materie prime (es mozzarella) ottime. Lo consigliamo!!

Despite a good atmosphere and my wife enjoying her pasta meal, my pizza was poor. Toppings scarce and drowning in a tomato sauce. As this is the basic dish served by the restaurant, they really need to be careful. The wine was overpriced for what it was.

Food was nice but incredibly overpriced for what you get. €167 bill for family of five with just mains and kids meals, e.g £6 for bottle of water for the table and nobody had starters or deserts. Waitress was very sharp and unfriendly and had not intended on giving a tip for this reason but they have 12.5% service charge automatically added to your bill regardless. As I said nice food but we've had much better value in Windsor throughout the week for 3 courses and better service

The food & service was outstanding Pasta has excellent flavor, there was a sufficient amount to insure that you don’t leave hungry

We had booked a table for 6 people at Sebastian’s as we were visiting Windsor for the Royal Windsor show. Wow this little restaurant is fabulous and definitely a find, I wish I had known about in previous years. Our table wasn’t quite ready when we arrived but we were looked after before shortly being shown to our table. The buzz of the restaurant with the open kitchen, the hustle bustle of waiters and waitresses explains the specials board and conversation of diners adds to the pleasant welcoming vibe of this busy authentic restaurant. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, they went of out of their way to provide outstanding service. We were also sat next to the kitchen, where we got to see a number of various dishes being placed on the pass but also able to watch pizza’s being made from scratch with the stretching and tossing of the dough. The menu and specials board offer a good variety of dishes. The food was well presented, hot, good size portions and most of all delicious! My seafood linguine was cooked to perfection and was one of the best I have eaten. My only feedback on what could have been better was to have the seafood linguine served in a pasta bowl instead of a plate but that is me being extremely picky! 😊 The deserts were fabulous and even with mine being a beautifully light delicious Crème brûlée with a layer of caramelised sugar that cracked perfectly, I still had food envy for the other deserts. This is one of the best dining experiences I have had and if you enjoy Italian food, I highly recommend a visit!

We had a table of 4 the food was ok But the manager was so rude and unprofessional to customers who walked in enquiring about a table , he shouted at them saying to go and wait outside not even a please if that his attitude to his customers , after that the food did not taste good any more left us shocked and a bad taste in the mouth, we decided never to go there again , or recommend it to any one ,

Super visit with friends to a hidden treasure. Down a little alley with super authentic food. Not as cheap as high street pizza restaurants but certainly worth it for flavour and choice. Pudding took a while because it was made from scratch - the best chocolate fondant ever tasted! We will return.

Lovely atmosphere and very attentive, friendly staff. Open kitchen so you can watch the chefs making and cooking pizzas plus tossing the pasta dishes. Very tasty food and the tiramisu was deliciously light. £110 for 3 of us, mainly food (not much of the total was drink) but it was a special treat. Best book in advance as it was full when we were there (Sunday).

Stumbled across this restaurant when I was in Windsor. Popped in for lunch and the food was amazing. Went back for dinner this week and had the same great experience. Food was superb, service brilliant and pricing was very reasonable. It was pretty busy and it was a Monday evening, so I would book ahead.

Incredible. Pure Italian food and honestly so tasty. My auntie and uncle were thoroughly impressed alongside me. Will definitely return when I visit next!

Went for lunch on Saturday - the place got quite busy after 1pm. We got a table straight away but you might need to book on popular days. They have lots of staff and you are served well and quickly, perhaps a bit too quickly as it does get busy and they want to turn the tables. It's a casual atmosphere. Good glass of wine each. My seafood linguini was very nice but the plate wasn't hot so it got a bit cool after a while. Anne's veggie pizza was bland but helped by a chilli olive oil. Size-wise just right - plenty of it. Ducked dessert and coffee. Cost £60 incl tip. Seemed a bit expensive for what we got but I think I am getting a bit out of touch with prices at the mo. 12.5% tip added by them.

We have visited Windsor for numerous years and only this time stumbled across Sebastian’s. What a gem. From the very warm welcome, excellent service and incredible food. Burrata and antipasti to start, just delicious and beautifully presented. A mix of pasta, chicken and fish for main courses, all delicious again. My sister had the filet steak pasta special, she said it was the best pasta dish she had ever eaten out, a perfect balance of pasta and meat. Deserts were brûlée and fondant which finished the meal perfectly. Thank you for an amazing night out, we can’t wait to come back.

Great atmosphere! There's a reason it was so lively...its a super Italian restaurant! Delicious food and wine, delightful staff...thank you so much!

Fantastic little restaurant serving probably the best arrabiata I’ve ever had. My wife had the steak which was done to perfection. Service was great with attentive staff. Would have no problem eating here again if I’m ever in the area.

The restaurant is obviously very busy. We came to Windsor to shop and eat. So on arrival I visited the restaurant and booked a table for 2 hours time, so not to be disappointed. When we returned we were shown straight to one of the few remaining tables. The service and food were excellent. The atmosphere was busy and the noise level high. However at the end of the meal when each of us had to queue some time for the single available toilet, we were being stared at and made to feel uncomfortable by customers waiting at the bar for our table. Perhaps they didn't have the forethought to book ahead. I can only hope that they had a similar experience when they finished their meal!

Really beautiful food in a warm and inviting atmosphere. We booked a table late in the day and were accommodated easily. The food was delicious and good value, big portions and quality ingredients. Would definitely recommend and return if back in the area.

We have been a big fan of Sebastian’s at Richmond. During the school half term, we decided to visit Windsor Castle. We were thrilled to see that there is Sebastian’s in Windsor as well. We were amazed to see the consistency of the food and the service. In fact one of the waiter’s turned out to be the one who has been serving us at the Richmond restaurant. The pizzas were out of this world, in my opinion one of the best pizzas I have ever tasted. The restaurant has been very cosy and relatively small if you compare with the Richmond restaurant but it has lovely decoration and fits well to the historical Windsor neighbourhood. I also would like highlight that it is slightly on the back street which may be difficult to locate if you try to find the restaurant on the main high street. We’ll definitely come back.

Brilliant food, exceptional service and fantastic atmosphere. Cannot praise this place enough. When we left, there were people queuing for a table - on a Monday evening! Just about says it all!

HUGE portions and typical Sebastian's quality! Excellent service as well! Our first time back after a fairly long time...far too long!

Poor service, mainly from the man , maybe the manager, seems to rush us to eat and then take the food that we hadn't finished away without even asking. The food was very good and tasty but very disappointed with everything else as the reviews are good here, from our first time here we wouldn't return, we come to enjoy the food and service, not get rude staff .

Very good food and friendly efficient service. Despite being busy we were looked after well. Service was fast but we didn’t feel rushed. No issues having a young baby in a pram at the table.

We had Lunch here today 15/12 . Our 2nd visit to the Restaurant . It was excellent . Staff , Food , ambience was fantastic . Will be back again

Prompt service, good and varied menu. Well staffed. Quality food of all the varieties one would expect from an Italian restaurant. Good portions well presented and piping hot. Friendly restaurant staff Spotless toilet and well up to date

The food is good and staff are attentive, however at busy times you are rushed into ordering your food and under pressure to buy more than you want,as well as being given a time slot. This takes a lot away from what could be a lovely and authentic dining experience.

Been wanting to visit for a long time having tried other pizzerias in the area that come and go. Location is in a side passage, down the side from Five Guys from the station arcade, or by Ecco from Peascod Street. Visited around 4pm on a Sunday when it was half full so was able to get in without a reservation. As with many places food and drink prices have gone up, so expect to pay around 14-17 for a pizza +12.5% service charge Shared a burrata for a starter, which was sufficient for a main meal. Recommend to have bread with this… shame that the restaurant could not do this… all Italian restaurants in Italy would bring bread out for every table. Pizzas were good.. base better than most pizzerias, and had the “Sebastian” pizza, which had Parma ham, tomato, rocket. Well presented, nicely cooked. Possibly a bit too salty in the base for me. By the time we were leaving, the restaurant was full, so would recommend booking esp for any lunch or evening times. I would return.

Lovely pizza and even better pasta. Always busy but very accommodating. One of our favourite places to eat.

My favourite restaurant! The food is fantastic and the atmosphere is amazing. Service is outstanding, too. Highly recommended!

Incredible food, service and atmosphere. We came here by chance after the ordeal of legoland. The food was delicious. Every single morsel, the service outstandingly Italian The hazelnut gelato is unforgettable!

This is a great restaurant. The food, the atmosphere, all 5 stars. I had seafood pasta which was the best I have tasted anywhere and I ended up having three courses with wine and even a liqueur coffee because I was enjoying myself so much. They even let me charge my phone so I could call my taxi home. Highly recommend!

Positives, amazing pizzas. Best had in ages! Friendly efficient staff. Very good menu. But charging £4 for a diet coke is so disappointing. The meals are not cheap so I would hope they made enough profit on that. I don’t mind paying but I hate...

Have been coming to this place for about 8 years now and I must say how they never disappoint us, food is always to a high standard and service is the best always had a warm welcome very accommodating, definitely our favourite Italian restaurant.

Outstanding in every regard! Attentive and charismatic service. Truly amazing food. Scintillating ambiance. Make a reservation for sure.

The staff are really friendly and take time to make you welcome and comfortable. The menu offers a wide range of food for all budgets. The food and service are well worthy of a tip, but do pay attention to the bill since they automatically...

The food was delicious I could have been in Italy. The humble minestrone soup was given a new lease of life probably the best soup I have ever had. Beautiful pizza cooked in a pizza oven. Service was excellent

The food the staff and the atmosphere were all wonderful. Don't be put off by the location because you won't be disappointed.

I had searched “best Italian restaurants” on here and Sebastian’s came up as #3. We weren’t able to book so when we arrived at the restaurant they only had a outside table available. I was a little hesitant as I hate cold food, But I...

There are some places that are not just about food; they're about creating memories that last a lifetime. Sebs proved to be exactly that kind of place for us. Our visit turned into an unforgettable love story that unfolded amidst the aroma of exquisite dishes...

Excellent food and service, would definitely recommend this restaurant. Authentic Italian food and great atmosphere.

A travel buddy of mine dropped the hint about this place on an out of the way alley between two fairly major pedestrian ways in Windsor. Lucky find! We were able to drop in without reservation in the early afternoon, but had to wait about...

Great people serving great Italian food. I would certainly recommend this place for anyone visiting Windsor.

Fantastic Italian restaurant very small so please book early, it's food was amazing and hot and the service was excellent too. Highly recommended

Didn’t know what to expect from a small Italian restaurant in a tourist hotspot like Windsor. But we were so impressed! Friendly attentive staff and great service. The food was delicious, especially the monkfish and mussels pasta on the specials menu. Would definitely recommend!

The food is great with interesting specials daily. We have been several times and the atmosphere is always good and the service attentive. We did feel that the prices were getting a bit extreme for the type of food- pasta dishes essentially. Still, they are...

visited this evening sat outside as no tables available inside . lovely food great friendly service would definitely visit again x

Was recommended to us by our Airbnb Host. Amazing food. Perfect service. Put it on your list if you are in Windsor. Best Italian meal ever!!

Excellent Italian food, however bit disappointed the staff did not tell us when the kitchen closed so we could not order extra dishes. Other than that had a great dinner!

Excellent food and great service. One of the best Italians we’ve experienced in some time. Would 100% recommend.

This was our first visit on a trip to Windsor and it was a great find! This authentic Italian restaurant is down an alleyway just off the main pedestrian street a few steps from Windsor castle. Booking is essential - it was busy and I...

What an absolute unexpected treat! We are travelling in the Thames. We planned to eat on the boat but we were in town and it was late. We asked if any tables were available. Monday night and nearly all tables taken. Brilliant positive sign! And...

We found this little gem of a restaurant whilst visiting Windsor. The food was one of the best Italian's we've had...just like what we had in Italy. The staff were all friendly and attentive welcoming us as a family a four. It was very busy...

Amazing again, a lovely authentic Italian with a great menu! One of favourite local eateries and all the better for not being part of a giant chain!

Fun, friendly atmosphere. The service was efficient and friendly. Great food, pasta and tirimasu. The noise level is high but adds to the atmosphere.

Great food in what I imagine would be a great atmosphere. We ate mid afternoon so the restaurant was very quiet. The staff were brilliant, very friendly and chatty. The food didn’t disappoint, proper Italian made pizza and pasta. Definitely recommend this place if you...

Cosy, small number of tables so be sure to book ahead. Food excellent, we thought we would be rushed out but we definitely were not. Would highly recommend.

Fabulous service, friendly staff, delicious food. We had a great time here and would recommend this local place over the many chains in Windsor. A great find!

Place was packed ,atmosphere great , service incredible ,and the starters and dinner even better. My picks prawns ,aubergine , the sirloin and lots of Peroni's to wash it all down. Serious Italia !!!

I booked this hotel for my husbands birthday weekend as we were staying in Windsor. It’s clear this restaurant is very popular, but if I’m honest I struggle to see why. The restaurant was very noisy and it felt very much to me that they...

We came for dinner last night. I never write negative reviews, but Its all I can give you. The food was not up to the standard we have had in the past (yes, I have previously trip advised you positivity). You have either become complacent,...

What a lovely find for our first visit there during an overnight stay to Windsor. Small but perfectly formed restaurant with great customer service and really child friendly. Now for the food, we all had pasta which was all lovely, from a Tuscan sausage pasta,...

Popped in here today for lunch. Great welcome, always a good start, nice vegetarian pizza which we shared along with a chicken salad. Simple fare, simply good, good service nice atmosphere, thank you very much!

My partner took me to Sebastian’s to celebrate my birthday & I am so grateful he did. The food was fantastic but the service from Steph was absolutely exceptional. She couldn’t have been kinder and made sure we were well looked after. I like to...

I have never tasted the most disgusting pasta sauce in my life! I ordered the "special" rigatoni with tuscan sausage and broccoli yesterday lunchtime. I was presented with a plate of pasta with raw minced pork and a couple of tiny pieces of overcooked broccoli...

Brilliant food and service. Well worth a visit. The service from the staff was amazing. They were so attentive and seemed really intent on ensuring you enjoyed the restaurant.

After a long day touring Windsor Castle, we were so pleased to find this friendly spot, which is located between the train station and the Castle. We loved our light lunches of pasta, an excellent burrata special and salad (and the substantial plates going out...

Absolutely shocking! A group of 11 of us, came together from all parts of the UK to meet here and we were confronted at the front door to say they didn’t have a table reserved for us. We booked weeks in advance and showed them...

Excellent food & service! Staff were friendly and always checking on us and great with the kids. Food was very tasty and generous portions, we had the garlic breads to start and crab linguini as a main. Would defiantly visit again if we ever go...

We found this little Italian down a cobblestone side street by chance, so pleased we did. The food and service excellent. Definitely recommend ***

Excellent food and service . Would recommend to anyone.Only fault would be the position of the toilet and the fact there was only 1.

I had mushroom pizza and it was delicious! Also my auntie had Pasta Frutti de la mer which was superb! The dessert Gelato & also Chocolate fondant with Hazelnut ice cream was amazing! The ambiance and staff were very helpful & even a single person...

This was a busy, bustling Italian just off the Main Street and was a fantastic experience, friendly staff and delicious food. The choices for vegetarians were great and that’s so pleasing to see. The whole family loved every course and it was served at pace...

Should have known when it was so busy on a Sunday evening that the food was fabulous and that it was. They graciously made room for us even with out a reservation (something other restaurants nearby made no effort to). Probably some of the best...

We loved it , simple and fresh thought it could use more basil and shaved Parmesan, otherwise good and a nice way to end our bus tour

We didn’t have a reservation but Marcin was very accommodating and found a table for me and my daughter. This is not first time when he does that with calmness and no fuss around not having a reservation, he is always attentive to tables, making...

We have eaten at many good standard Italian restaurants and assumed from the star ratings this would be added to our list , however we were not impressed. The food was at best average and in particular the seafood linguine was bland and not hot....

This restaurant stands out for its food and service. Friendly and efficient - from how you're seated, even if there's a bit of a wait, to them talking through specials, recommending wine and checking on you throughout. It's a warm, relaxing and comforting experience.

Lovely restaurant. The food was outstanding. I had the Rigatoni with Tuscan sausage, mushroom and truffle oil which was beautiful. By all accounts, the Crab Linguini and Pizza were equally spectacular. The staff were friendly and chatty and kept our 10 year old entertained. Would...

This place always has a hood buzz and the simple menu means the chefs don't play around with the food too much - simple ingredients cooked well. Our party enjoyed seafood linguini, spaghetti pomodoro, sea bass and a special comprised of prawns with pasta in...

Outside of Tuscany this is by far the best Italian food I have tasted. We were only in Windsor for 2 nights but ended up eating here both nights as the first was so good. The staff are so friendly and greeted us like old...

Always love this pl are but it's even better in the sunshine! Had the Calabrese pizza and it was so tasty. Service great, wine lush and really nice all-round lunch.

Lovely Italian restaurant in a great setting. Service was excellent, food very good and a relaxing atmosphere

Excelent food. Pizza Diavola, pasta and Burrata, also tiramisu for dessert. Nice location and good service. Great place to eat.

We came across this restaurant when exploring Windsor. The restaurant was extremely busy and we booked a table for the following evening. When we went for our meal, the restaurant was just as busy - clearly an extremely popular place to eat! The staff were...

Very small family run. The beautiful aroma of sauce and garlic greets the visitor upon arrival. The staff is very knowledgeable about the food and provides excellent service. The variety of entrees allows for different tastes. I ordered the black squid ink pasta and the...

Tasty food-shame about the rude, unhelpful staff….it wouldn’t hurt to smile at your customers, telling me you need my coffee cup because you’re running out-is not my problem…it’s yours. Not sure I’ll be back mainly for that reason.

Lovely food, staff were friendly. I think if there's any criticism they were a little over efficient. Sat outside in the sunshine stunning. Staff were always outside waiting for any issue. When I went to the toilet and came out some people were sitting down...

I can’t believe the experience at this restaurant which was the most insulting I have ever had in front of public and my guests just now, we booked a table for 8.30 for a birthday dinner and arrived at 9 pm and asked if we...

We had an excellent meal here this evening. We hadn’t booked a table but received a really good welcome, service started well and was super throughout the meal. I had a melanza de parmigiana as a main, this is a favourite of mine and this...

Fabulous find on our visit to Windsor while walking the Thames path. We had not made a reservation but went on the off chance to which the staff were very helpful and seated us very quickly. Very tentative and the food and wine were delicious....

First time at this lovely little restaurant down a alleyway staff where superb food was out of this world I would really recommend people to go to This restaurant

Very good friendly service and the food was made fresh and very good quality. Nothing is too much for staff. Would definitely come back.

Nice cosy restaurant and the food was very good. Service was professional and friendly. Good selection of dishes.

Excellent and reliable quality was the key aspect of our impromptu lunch. Sebastian’s has a great ambience and their starters consisting of traditional Italian bruschetta, gamberini, fresh burrata . The pizzas are also made fresh in front of the guests and cooked in a wood...

Called to book for 9 people didn’t hold out much hope on getting a reservation but they called back and advise they could fit us in but not until 2-2.15 we arrived a-little early but they great whilst we waited for our time and 2.20pm...
