The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Absolutely filthy place! Went in the morning and it was rotten to the point you’d think it hasn’t been cleaned in a week. Walked out

Easily the best pizza in England. A well overdue review (by a year) after comparing various pizza restaurants we have encountered across England. The owners are young and energetic about what goes on the plate, the price point is just right so the pizza makes you feel like you are getting way more than then the ingredients and the effort, and the pizza itself is fantastic. Proper fired pizza that’s simple and tasty, with a tomato sauce that has been cooked up and seasoned well. Worth an overnight hotel and Hastings stop just to sit back and enjoy.

First time in… and amazing service and even better food (cheese, bread and meat) Wonderful Deli …Thank you !

Delicious tomato sauce cooked on the premises. Surprising to see. Yum. Recommended

Great little local Italian restaurant. Good value for money.

A truly excellent meal. All of the courses were superb. (Dined in)

We were very fortunate to catch a canceled reservation. A perfect evening of food, wine, and relaxation. Every dish we had was superb. And for the quality, the prices were very fair. Highly recommended. Their gluten-free menu is extensive.

We had a great night here 2 weeks ago for our wedding anniversary. The food was excellent. The goats cheese wrapped in filo starter was delicious, as was the sirloin steak with a creamy sauce. I'd asked for it to be cooked medium and it was perfect. My husband ordered a different steak dish and asked for that to be medium rare and was equally happy with it. We didn't think we'd got room for a dessert but, after a decent break, found the home made tiramisu too much to resist. Service was very good and the chef spent some time talking with us which was a nice touch. It was a shame not to see it busier. Other customers of the night had arrived earlier than us and so left earlier. Despite us being the only ones there later on the staff didn't hurry us along so that they could get back home. We've been to Buonissimo in the past, but not for quite some time, and have always been happy with the food and service. This night, the food seemed better than ever. It made us realise we need to go more frequently as we really are fortunate to have such excellent Italian restaurants so close to home.

I have been to vito lots of times over the past 12 ish years and I have never been disappointed! I would recommend Vito's 100%

A really cool sweet and interesting restaurant, a menu with a lot of familiar foods with a slight twist - beetroot gnocchi for example. But traditional things too like ragu with goose, pork and lamb meat. My date and I had a wonderful time. Very nice ambience too.

We went today 30.03.25 and had a table booked for 12:45, we were a little early but wasn’t a problem they still seated us. The service was great and not rushed at all. The food was delicious and the portion sizes were perfect. Everything came out quickly - but not too quickly which was good. Nice decor inside too. The only little thing is that it was such a nice day outside the restaurant was a little hot inside - could’ve done with some aircon / opening a few more doors to let some air in. Would definitely return with no hesitation.

Lovely as always. Would appreciate slightly more generous portions with the additional toppings at £2 a pop, but otherwise brilliant value and very delicious
