The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Ate at Cafe Italia for lunch after a business meeting in the area. From start to finish the service from Guiseppe was impeccable. I’d say the food is proper, authentic Italian. Everything we ate (ordered a mixture of starters and had the Paccheri as a main) was delicious. Can easily recommend Cafe Italia!

Highly recommend! I’ve tried many dishes and pastries my favourite is pistachio croissant also very nice environment and lovely staff

Refreshing to find a cozy little restaurant what does not belong to any chains (frenchise). Pizza base is authentic 🍕 like in Italy 🇮🇹 Toppings are ok, could be better, with more sliced mozzarella and fresh basil leaves. Honey is NOT cool on pizza 🚫🍯🍕 Tiramisu was a good surprise with chocolate chips, it paired well. Gelato 🍨 is very nice, not 💯% like in Italy, but very nice.

We frequented Otto over the Easter weekend and would certainly recommend it for others. We had pizza one evening which was good, albeit on the thinner side of our preference it was certainly enjoyable. One slight note, maybe the order wasn't taken correctly, but out side dip never arrived. (We didn't raise an issue as it didn't seem worth it, plus we had started eating etc). Breakfast(s) were really good too, which was welcomed as our original self-catering plan was cancelled at the last minute. The food and service both ticked the box, no issues there. Our only comment on the negative front would be the abundance of dogs at breakfast service, seemingly present at most tables, and in some cases, sitting on the dining seats. We appreciate it's a personal preference on that front...

Amazing chef , Amazing restaurant , freindly servis.

I returned today after 15 years been away and brought a good freind who can be quite picky, but her empty plate said it all. We both had fish, Sea Bass and Swordfish which was delicous including our tasty starter and lemone desert. This place is a gem and when ever thing now is getting more and more exspensive you should choose this place over any chain restaurants as it 100% authentic.

First visit , tried the homemade lasagna which was really good, had an oat latte ( tasted a bit weak,but it might be just personal preference) . Had the soup of the day which i enjoyed the most ( it was a tomato and red pepper soup) . Staff was friendly and helpful I have been looked after.

Fabulous food at a great price. Staff were very friendly and courteous.

Hair in my pasta, and nothing done to correct it. Food without hair in it was ok, staff friendly.

Ordered 2 pizzas and both were everything you would want in a pizza absolutely class, chippy were also no bad,

Absolutely amazing food, just the right size portions and a great atmosphere. Enjoyed by our party tonight. Packed on a Wednesday night. Luckily we booked and would advise anyone of thinking of going to do the same.

Lovely meal. Our experience was made very enjoyable due to the lovely service provided by our waiter Sidney.

Absolutely outstanding service and really good food fabulous pizza and pasta dishes with very proper homely northern Irish Welcome.
