The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

What an amazing restaurant! The service was friendly and helpful. The food was outstanding and we will be back. So nice to find a great restaurant offering good value, great food and wonderful service.

Only reason im leaving a 5 star review was how my problem was handled. Walked miles to get some bruchetta, apparently they were all out. Asked if i can just have plain one without the truffle, assuming how can a italian place be out of tomatos, but denied. Ordered the lasagna and it was pretty much a soup of grease and lasagna bits. I haven't sent anything back in years but it was inedible, mouth coated in grease. The owner however was very polite and professional about it. I understand im going against the owners 60year family recipe, but lets take a stroll into the now and realize eating a bowl of grease isn't going to fly these days. I like to live without heart disease. Still thank you to owner for being a respectful person, I wouldn't go here again but I appreciate places that know what its like to be courteous.

Simply and casually furnished in an imaginatively refurbished 18th century property close to the square. Service is very friendly, heavily reminiscent of the casual atmosphere in countryside Italian restaurants and not pushy. The menu is extensive in an era of increasingly limited choice and pricing is sensible. The tasty Murano lager and house Puglian red were surprisingly premium in taste and drinking enjoyment. The kitchen is open to the restaurant and a hive of co-ordinated activity. We tried a selection of seafood, Pasta and pizza dishes and very much enjoyed our dining experience here. The pizza has a delightfully thin base; the toppings are unusually generous and, crucially, fresh. It's a cut above many Italian restaurants that are now losing their individuality and flair. It's clearly a popular and regular haunt for locals - another good sign.

Perfect greasy spoon breakfast and italian dinner. Tony (owner and chef) is a local legend and Gent. Just book for dinner or pop in for brekkie and enjoy.

Food was great, everything was fresh and the mains were lovely. We came for a birthday meal, there were 7 of us, the service was very slow but staff were friendly enough to begin with. There was live music playing (which we weren’t informed of when booking) and the speaker was just behind us and we could barely hear each other talk which was frustrating. The main issue we had was with the bill, we didn’t feel (given the slow service) that they deserved the full service charge (that they automatically put on the bill) but given there were 7 of us, we still tipped £20. They were initially fine with this and no questions were asked until one of the servers came over (fairly disgruntled) and said that ‘you know we didn’t charge you for bringing the cake out’. Never in my life have I experienced a restaurant charging for a cake but he obviously felt the need to make a dig because we didn’t pay the full ‘optional’ tip. It’s a real shame this happened, as the food was great. Because of our experience of this, I wouldn’t return.

I’ve lived in Sevenoaks for 7 years and visited for the first time today. I’m definitely returning! Great service and really nice breakfast. Good selection for all dietary needs.

La comida es deliciosa y el personal atiende cada petición. . gracias Antico por un almuerzo increíble... volveremos ❤️

Took my partners parents out for lunch for their anniversary to this pub. Very friendly staff with a fantastic menu. Cannot begin to describe just how good the food was!, meat was cooked to perfection. Was a shame that I was so full I couldn’t enjoy a dessert! Really hoping the pub is doing an xmas lunch as we’ll defiantly be booking if they do

Fantastic food, service is great don't fill rushed, good atmosphere, thanks Mike and the team, see you next year.

This is the first time trying this restaurant and oh my god ,absolutely incredible food from the starters through to the main meal nothing but fantastic food and service in lovely surroundings

Arrived early and was greeted and lead to our table the food was delicious the staff was fabulous and the surroundings are amazing excellent and very reasonable priced will make it one of my favourites

The atmosphere is very cozy. The food is amazing and tasty +

I don't know if the "chef" knows the recipe for lasagna but there is no béchamel sauce at all. It doesn't taste like lasagna at all

Beautiful food! We all had a different dish each and each one was fantastic, lovely flavours. The staff were so friendly and very attentive. Wonderful spot and certainly recommend. Will definitely be returning. Thank you for such a lovely evening.
