The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Sono stato accompagnato da mio figlio e dalla sua compagna che si sono trasferiti da poco in quella zona di Londra a pochi isolati dal locale. Per loro è diventato il Ristorante di riferimento per le loro cene di coppia. Mi hanno voluto far gustare i piatti preparati con abilità e fantasia dallo chef, pur mantenendo fermamente le tradizioni ed i sapori italiani, e serviti nell'accogliente locale dalla cordialissima Giulia. Abbiamo scelto da un Menu non molto ricco ma decisamente di stile italiano un polipo scottato in salsa, veramente tenero e gustoso, mio figlio ha scelto l’Amatriciana, mentre io ho optato per le Fettuccine ai funghi porcini, la fidanzata di mio figlio ha preferito un piatto di carne, costoletta brasata all’Amarone. Il vino, un Chianti Mediceo per accompagnare tutti i piatti della cena che abbiamo concluso con dei buoni espresso e grappe. Il prezzo è in linea con i ristoranti qualificati della zona. Consigliato !

Marcelo is an excellent host and we all loved his new place in St Albans Street. Small but lovely atmosphere. Fantastic tapas and lovely wine. We should certainly visit more often.

Very pleasant in every aspect but an outstanding chicken and vegetable soup was worth commending as was the pleasant atmosphere and staff

Hoy fui a Guido's a almorzar después de unos meses que no había visitado. Dios mío, qué hermosa comida! La pasta era al dente, el ragu era tan delicado y sabroso. ¡Gracias Guido's por hacerte sentir como en casa!

Buonissimo! Perfettamente italiano, prezzo introvabile a Londra, qualità italianissima ! Super soddisfattissimi !

First time visiting so not sure what to expect, we got 2 slices of pizza and nachos, I got meat feast, wife got chicken & sweetcorn (with added onion) nachos arrived first followed by the pizza. Slices were about 1/3 of a XL at a certain ‘spot pizza delivery’ served with dips as well. Drinks were a bottle of zero San Miguel (only zero beer they had, but it’s one of the nicer ones) and 2x187ml wine. All came to £25 so not too expensive for Southport and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. We sat outside on a glorious Wednesday evening. Well recommended.

The food was amazing! The staff were polite and attentive. Well worth a visit. I can see it becoming one of our regulars.

Another excellent meal at Ravenscourt House. Delicious homemade soup and couldn’t resist having the Carbonara again. The Bruschetta, Seafood Tagliatelle and Duck Ragu also looked very good and all were generous portions. The service was very welcoming and friendly so it was a great evening.

Came here with my family and had a great experience, food was great, customer service was also great. Will be coming back again for sure

On cold and very wet December days, this cafe was a great place to warm up. I suspect it would be a great 'slice of Italy' at any time of the year. Excellent hot and tasty panini, homemade scones and hot coffee...very welcome and much needed. Great attentive and friendly staff. We will ready return (and have) to this great cafe. For us, a bonus is that it is nowhere near the city centre.

From the warm and friendly welcome, right through to the artistic dessert, this was a delicious and memorable experience. Both the owner, Alberto, and his handsome waiter made every customer feel valued. I watched how they interacted with everyone to ensure that all had a first rate experience. There were complimentary bread and olives, flavoursome Mock Colada, perfect escalope Milanese, and the biggest veal cutlet ever. As for the tiramisu in its own little flower pot and tiny trowel, it was melt in the mouth heavenly. I often eat across the road, but had never previously noticed this gem. Thank you, we hope to return here soon.

Really disappointing. I made a reservation and selected the wrong date online. I called the restaurant to say I’d cancelled it and tried to rearrange the reservation for the following week. I was still charged a £10 cancellation fee and they were unable to refund the cancellation fee and change the booking date.

Noto che le recensioni migliori sono di qualche annetto fa. Ho il grosso dubbio che sia cambiata la gestione. L'ho provato un paio di giorni fa e non ho trovato nulla di favoloso. Certo, trovare della pasta fatta in casa a Londra è sempre interessante, ma la sensazione è che chi cucina non sappia bene cosa stia facendo. Ho preso ravioli burro e salvia. Pasta buona, ripieno non eccezionale, la salvia c'era... I miei dubbi cadono sul burro: quella salsina in cui erano affogati i ravioli magari aveva dentro anche del burro, ma anche un sacco di altra roba: uovo? Olio? Panna? E chi lo sa! La cosa più interessante era l'ambiente in cui si trova il locale, a metà strada tra un mercato coperto ed una sagra di paese. Al centro i tavoli su cui mangiare, attorno tante bancherelle con diversi tipi di cibo. Molto suggestivo ed invitante.
