Sicily in Epsom and Ewell

An authentic Sicilian restaurant with delicious freshly cooked food. Attentive staff and friendly owner…nothing too much trouble. A leisurely meal with sensible pauses between courses to allow for all the food to be freshly prepared.

great spot for a business meal or a social gathering, great food and drinks, staff are excellent and reasonable prices. Definitely worth a visit

Thank you Grace for a lovely meal and for making my husbands birthday so special. Everything was perfectYou never let us down. x

Thanks for ruining our Mother’s Day, Sicily. We booked a table for 3 well in advance (24th Feb). However, when reached the restaurant we realized that the table (table 5) you have reserved for us is a small one, usually should accommodate 2 person. Still we didn’t want to spoil our day and agreed to that table. The strangest part is, there was no way to access the chairs. Even your manager couldn’t get in. You mentioned that other better tables are reserved for REGULARS. That might be your business strategy to attract repeat customers but in that case you should have cancelled our reservation so that we could try to find another. You didn’t have right to ruin our day. Thanks again for the excellent hospitality and cute focus. New customers looking to venture a new Italian eatery, be aware!!!

excellent food, excellent service and could not fault anything about this venue, would highly recommend it for its food, service and price.

The food was so fresh and delicious, the atmosphere , decoration , background music , and service was amazing, we will definitely come back again👍

Great food and portions..fantastic atmosphere

The best restaurant . Very professional service Very nice atmosphere. Definitely I come back .

The best Italian restaurant I have found in this country, very friendly and welcoming. We've been going here for many years and it never has let us down. As all dishes are genuine and self-made, there is the occasion that something is not available, e.g. no pistachio ice cream as the right pistachio nuts were not available, but I see this as a positive, as it shows that high quality produce will not be replaced by inferior alternatives. Can only highly recommend (and have done so quite often already to friends who were all impressed)

Had a wonderful dinner on Christmas Eve. Food was absolutely delicious, portions generous. Pizza and bruschetta are well recommended. Price was reasonable and service amazing. Worth a visit!

Food was really good however the service was incredibly slow. Sat down at 8, got our first drink about 8.25 and didn't get to order our food until 9

Lovely little gem of a place! Highly recommended

Lovely atmosphere and amazing choice of food. I had Swordfish pasta, beautiful

The food was just ok - not the Italian experience we have had previously. From start to finish service was rushed. No time between starter and main, and although I asked several times not bring the main straight away, this was ignored. No atmosphere what so ever, staff just smiled and nothing to say. Differently much better italian restaurant out there. I thought the Italian loved a dining experience, clearly not these one - just over an hour. More interested getting you in and out.

Absolutely fabulous food, great atmosphere, only spoilt by the slow service. I will definitely be going again. 🙂

Food was very tasty and food portions. Hot and seasoned well with just enough spice. Service was a tad slow, especially given pre-ordered food, but otherwise the whole experience was very good and new interior is very appealing.

What a hidden gem of a restaurant. The decor, ambience, and service were fabulous. The food was some of the best Italian I've tasted, and I lived in Italy for a year. It will become one of our regular restaurants. Can not rate everything highly enough. Thank you.

Fantastic atmosphere and service, staff were very kind and accommodating. Food and drink were outstanding.

Wow.....great food, lovely restaurant and staff, good wine and beer and a fabulous Irish coffee to finish the night....look forward to going back again.....if you've never been before then just go......

An absolute treasure of a restaurant!... exquisite food and drinks... Really enjoyed every time! 👍

The food was delicious, the waiters/waitresses was one of the most friendly people I’ve ever met in my entire life. And you just have to admit that once you have a meal in there! The quality is so good. That you might think that you were in a super fancy restaurant. And I do recommend having a go in that restaurant, even if you need to wait, I promise you that it worth the wait 😁! Also, they will ask you like any other restaurant would ‘Do you have any diet or allergies?’ You can also choose either inside or outside. Your choice, completely free.

Cosy and warm atmosphere; beautiful and unique decor; food and service are outstanding - definitely recommend this place.

First time here and it's fantastic. The decor, service and food were all brilliant, this is a gem of a place in Epsom.

Popular local restaurant, food was very good, a large menu with a lot of choice. Downfall for me was the slow service that has been mentioned in other reviews. I don't like to be rushed, nothing worse, but it's almost as bad when yu are waiting for orders to be taken and food to be served. I don't think being busy is an excuse. Apart from that I enjoyed the meal and the restaurant has a great atmosphere and there is a nice outside garden area. I woud go again and would recommend the food with the proviso of don't go if you are time limited! Service charge added automatically....a pet hate and on this occasion I would have reduced it.

Avoid the garden, midges and mosquitos bit our party constantly. Service was really slow for 7 of us on a not so busy Friday night. I'm not into Italian food but the others were, so I asked for the kids menu and they said "it's strictly for kids only", I've no idea why other than to be pompous. I had fries from the main menu, which were good but everything else made fr not the best restaurant experience.

My favorite restaurant and always tastes amazing. They are very clear about their allergies as well which is really important

Excellent meal, service and value

I ordered from Uber risotto alla pescatora. MY GOD the risotto was smelling so bad!!! I had to throw it away.. please do not serve bad quality food for those who order online… 🤢🤢🤢

Lovely food, service, and atmosphere 🤩 We will be back 😁

A beautiful and underrated restaurant with kind and helpful staff, food better than I've ever tasted and gorgeous drinks. The inside is soft, and calming ambiance perfect for an intimate meal and the garden is well kept, welcoming and cosy! Will definitely be going back. Thank you!

Beautiful and cosy spot for a lovely, delicious meal. Great service and excellent quality food 👌🏾

We were visiting Epsom and went to this restaurant last week. The food was good, good size. We wanted to stay in the garden as it was sunny and it was open but unfortunately it wasn't that inviting and clean. We moved inside where is very nice. The other thing that I believe is not great is the bathroom. The restaurant is nice and the food is authentic Italian but some things aren't that inviting. That said if you are passing thru Epsom and you want somewhere to eat is definitely a good place.

Tasty food let down by incredibly poor and slow service. I’ve eaten here many times before but sadly tonight was just awful. We were out to celebrate my father-in-law‘s 89th birthday - it took almost an hour before our food order was taken, and it took three hours to have a starter and a main course. We were starving by the time our starters were delivered and then it was over another hour before our main courses arrived. I even had to clear our table after our starters and go to the bar to ask for our water carafe to be refilled. No apology, no recognition, no offer of a drink, and the cheek to add a 10% service charge when they brought our bill. I like to support local businesses but I won’t go back to Sicily restaurant any time soon.

We had early dinner tonight and was amazing. Staff were so attentive and the food was outstanding. Restaurant is lovely and has a wonderful outside area we will definitely be back.

Lovely restaurant, with friendly staff. Service was good and the food was excellent. Will definitely go back.

Great place. Going back to have a meal there. Picked up some chairs there and it looks really really inviting and a warm and cosy environment to have a meal see you soon guys

Amazing family run restaurant that offers great food, excellent service and a warm, friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend .

Stopped at this eatery whilst in the area and was pleasantly delighted to find some good quality Italian food. There was 6 of us and all of us were happy with our choices of antipasti and main. Calamari, garlic pizza, baked mushrooms as starters and fettuccine alle vongole, carbonara, risotto and linguine alla siciliana for main. Will be back.

Great Sunday lunch 😋. Food and service-excellent 👍

Very disappointing meal. The food was luke warm. Starters very overpriced for what they were. All fairly tasteless and under seasoned. Sent lamb chops back twice as they were cold and very tough, the original ones came back twice, so then they were as tough as old boots and inedible, not offered fresh ones. Not what we expected for the high prices. Sadly the large table next to us had a similar experience and were refusing to pay the bill. Won't be returning.

A real gem, quiet and unassuming from the outside, but magical on the inside. Genuine authentic Sicilian food served beautifully by warm and friendly staff.

Poor and disappointing experience - food made with no love or care and extremely poor service. Took 20 minutes to get the waiter to come to get our drinks order and another 15 minutes to get us our drinks. The fish I ordered was too long to prepare according to the manager so I ordered a salad where prawns were not seasoned and just taken out of the tin with no sauce. Absolutely awful. Will never go back again.

my husband and I went there for lunch. The restaurant was cosy and well decorated. The lady served us was friendly and attentive. We ordered three course set lunch. The appetisers are average. The mains are good, especially the penne was full of taste of salmon. However, the dessert made me disappointed …… I believe the tiramisu was cut from the ready made cake from supermarket.

An Italian owned restaurant(not a chain) with excellent range of pastas and risottos. Menu prices not cheap but pretty average for a very nice restaurant (and not noisy! you can have a conversation without shouting)

I can’t praise this place enough ! Amazing from start to finish ! Highly recommend 👌🏼

Waited an hour for food. Was A Birthday celebration which was totally ignored. They were fussing over a large party and we’re not remotely interested in a table of two. No smiles from the waitress. Won’t be returning

Great restaurant,tasty food and excellent service

Always delicious, fresh food. A varied menu. Service is at the right level of attentive. I have never been disappointed at this restaurant.

Delicious. Just been for the first time and it certainly won’t be the last. How did I overlook this gem right on my doorstep? Not only authentic, but the staff are genuinely lovely and nothing is too much trouble. Superb.

We don’t eat out regularly but we’ve returned to Sicily a few times now as we love it. The atmosphere is relaxing and cosy and the service staff are friendly and attentive. Our food last night was really good. I asked the waiter for a recommendation and chose Spaghetti Siciliana which was delicious.My husband enjoyed the Fettuccine Pollo & Fungi which again was happily finished. We both chose a glass of red wine which were very good and a very fair price. We’ll be back!

Really nice, cosy, spacious place, where the food is just outstanding. If you think, you know Italian food, you will be pleasantly surprised, once you take the first bite. This place deserves “six stars”.

Highly recommend. Food is super fresh and comes out lovely and hot. Nice staff. Definitely coming back and bringing my friends

First time in this cozy restaurant and very impressed with the food, atmosphere and service. Everything was amazing, highly recommended!

Amazing!! Great food, lovely restaurant. And the owners are very friendly and welcoming.

A group of six - we arrived as arranged @8.30 to be greeted and seated instantly. Delicious food & wine. Starters - we had mussels, bruschetta, goats cheese & caramelized apples on crostini. Mains - we had salmon with saute potatoes, spaghetti, penne, veal. Desserts - we had limoncello with sorbet; hazelnut ice cream with amaretto, tiramisu. 6 people, 3 courses each, 3 bottles of excellent wine - total bill £184, including service charge! All served at a steady pace and always with a smile. Excellent value and highly recommended.

Very pleased with our first visit to Sicily, Epsom! We went with small children and the staff are excellent and do all they can to welcome families. food was delicious, and full of flavour from start to finish. Will visit again for sure!

Like a LOT of other people have had to do unfortunately, this is a very bad review. The food was absolutely dreadful - bland, not what it’s says on the menu, completely overpriced and missing so many ingredients. They are trying to cut costs by not giving the customer what they ordered and thinking we are idiots and going to accept it, but all they are going to do is lose customers as I definitely will not be going back and would not recommend anyone does. The staff are beyond rude especially the manager - Grace. They are not happy to help they just say they can’t do anything. If you want to pay ridiculous prices for something you didn’t order, I would say go, but otherwise save your money and go to some of the other amazing restaurants in Epsom as this was a horrific experience. Very disappointed.

Delicious food. Lovely restaurant, friendly staff. Very welcoming

We went for a late Sunday lunch pre cinema. Very quiet in there. We had spaghetti Vongole and calamari. Not too bad but all pretty average taste wise. Friendly enough service.

Amazing food, amazing place, friendly atmosphere and stuff

Friendly service & atmosphere, good portion sizes and tasty food

I just had a Coffee Service was great as I couldn't eat Italian food. But had a lovely Coffee.

Really nice garden and some great pasta

Lovely place with good pizza. More quiet than other places, which is surprising considering nice interior and pretty big garden space.

Very enjoyable meal. Authentic. Tasty. Friendly staff. A good find. Thank you.

Great food and lovely garden seating area. Bit of a hiccup with our order but all sorted very quickly. Would definitely go back.

Great Family Restaurant with great service and excellent quality meal served

A very lovely restaurant, the king prawns were delicious. Will be going back

We visited this restaurant with friends. It was a positive experience from start to finish. The staff were attentive but we did not feel rushed. The food was very very good. A variety of dishes for a variety of tastes and everyone was happy. We will definitely go back. The clam linguine was particularly good. And everything was very reasonably priced.

We went with friends and all had starters, mains and desserts. We each had something different and very much enjoyed it all. Highlights were the King Prawns and the Cannolo, the pasta dishes were great and the service was attentive without rushing us. A lovely relaxing evening.

When everyone has an empty plate at the end of their meal, you Know it was delicious. All 6 of us thoroughly enjoyed the meal, and our experience here, exceeded expectations.

We had meal here second time. We all had a very nice meal both time, atmosphere is really lovely aswell. My pasta( I forgot name but leek and chestnut mushroom with white wine sauce fettuccine pasta) was really nice! I had bit tasted kids meal pizza and other pizza both really fresh dough and just lovely. We will go back again! Thank you Sicily!

The alarm bells rang out very loud when at 7:30 pm on a Saturday night we were able to get a table without a booking. Only a couple of tables being used. Really should have listened. Ordered starters and main courses from a friendly waitress but not very knowledgeable through her own admission about the menu. Deep fried crab claws arrived and to my horror when I bit into them they were still frozen....these were taken away very quickly by the manager on duty. Unfortunately this put a sour note on our evening. Our main courses arrived ,we had both ordered veal cooked differently. Again my main Veal with white wine mushroom sauce disappointed. Over cooked and over seasoned and thankfully very little of it. We didn't stay for for deserts or coffee. When paying bill absolutely no allowance made for terrible frozen crab claws. We paid for our food but had to ask for the service charge to be removed. If this restaurant had been very busy I might have understood mistakes made with the food. I won't be going back here.

Fantastic little hidden gem in Epsom! You gotta try it to believe it. The ambient is beautiful with lovely soft piano music in the background and the food was a success with my friend. 100% authentic Italian food made with love ❤️

Absolutely devine. Will have the swordfish next time

Three hours to have a two course meal. Restaurant was half full. The food was in my opinion over priced and average quailty and quantity. The antipasta comprised thin slices of cold meats, olives with garlic , bread pieces and a number of very small vegetables in olive oil (£19.95). The veal was not tender but chewy. They charged £1 for a jug of tap water!

Food is absolutely delicious, worth every penny, my only criticism is that drink service was too slow and the bulky glasses used are not in keeping with the style and decor of the restaurant.

Great Italian.Excellent service & attention

It's a lovely restaurant with a good ambiance and attentive staff. The food is fine, but all their dishes seem to just miss being excellent - e.g. there's nothing wrong exactly, but the sauce overpowers the fish. So it's always pleasant but never amazing.

Knocks the socks off local chain restaurants with owners who really care about customer experience. Extensive menu and after 3 courses for all no one disappointed.

Great food. Friendly service. A great independent Italian restaurant. Has a kids menu too which is quite tasty even for adults!

I really enjoyed every single course here due to its fresh and tasty ingredients. The service was excellent and included many vegetarian dishes. Slighty disappointed the arancini is not vegetarian and they didn't have the cannoli but what I did have was so good!

Very good food.have been a number of times and have always come away very content.good prices and excellent service. Recommend

Gone down hill since our last visit a couple of months ago - something didn’t quite gel this time. Service was haphazard. And we really felt for the table next to us who kept being sidelined by waiting team!! Yes we would return but …..

Grace at Sicily is not just one of the kindest but also the most professional restaurateur I’ve ever known. From the very first phone call I made to enquire about having an event there for a group of 35 guests to the last profiteroll and coffee … everything was absolutely perfect. Staff were warm and welcoming and worked hard to ensure every guest was looked after throughout the evening and didn’t stop till the last guest left. I would definitely not be looking for any other venue to host a party or for a evening out with family and friends. Thank you Grace and team for your support on 4 Oct 2021.

epic food because its epic food

We came here because it's not a chain, so glad we did, wonderful authentic dishes, reasonably price and lovely friendly staff, we will definitely return.

Finally got round to writing a review! We have lived in Epsom for many years and visit Sicily regularly. We have enjoyed our every meal there. We agree that they 'offer special attention, care & affection & above all make our guests feel at home'. There is a cosy atmosphere, and you can hear yourself speak! We last went there with our elder daughter on 4 Sept and, as ever, we had a lovely evening.

Great food and service we had a lovely time

Excellent food excellent service

In a nutshell: Good food and fantastic service. It's obvious that the team in the kitchen is actually Italian. Would recommend.

Delicious home,-made food, pleasant surroundings, friendly staff, good q

Excellent Sicilian food. Really fresh ingredients.

I've been to Sicily a few times over the years, but my husband and children wanted to try it out. Welcoming atmosphere and delicious food. One of my favourite restaurants in Epsom. We usually go to Italy over the summer to visit family but couldn't go this year and, in a way, we felt transported there for a few hours.

Been walking past it for years but never uad a chance to go in. We went today with the kids and absolutely loved it. Food was great , relaxing atmosphere and staff was extremely welcoming. Menu is so diverse that I think it'll need plenty...

Wow!! What a little gem. Fabulous restaurant, food amazing and such friendly staff.

Great restaurant, wonderful atmosphere and great food. My wife and I had both forgotten our glasses, the staff were amazing, helping us choose from the menu, so patient!! Our new favorite place, would highly recommend.

Such a gem, never been before and don't know why. The food was delicious and good portion sizes. Service attentive but not over powering, prices were the same as other restaurants with a bonus of quality included. Parking easy in Ashley centre and walk across the road. Would come again.

Always fantastic food and friendly service.
