The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

We meant to go somewhere else but ended up in this beautifully decorated restaurant. Staff members were very friendly and helpful. Fantastic food choices, that look great and taste even better. We will definitely be returning.

super essen, wer gerne mag das was lauft im laden ist hier genau richtig. uns gefiel das ambiente sehr gut. der service ist hammer, sehr zuvorkommend aber null aufdringlich.

Nice food, slow drinks service but overall really nice

La Foglia is one of my top three restaurants in the Banbury area. I have eaten there dozens of times - and why? - because the food is just so, so good. The waiters know me and, at the late end of the evening, when the chef comes out to have his own dinner, I have called out to him and given him a round of applause. This is the closest thing I have found to Rome - where it is impossible to have a bad meal. Treat yourself! (and by the by, the house Montepulciano is very nice.)

The food is so consistently great , the staff are lovely and we’re always welcomed . As with most Italians they are so lovely with children . Portions are generous , I always think I’ll have room for a pudding but rarely manage it .

Booked an early dinner with a friend prior to an evening at The Hawth Theatre. Fantastic service from the moment we walked in. Delicious, authentic Italian cuisine with a lovely bottle of Pinot! Would thoroughly recommend this little gem of a restaurant in Crawley just over from the High Street.

Really good, I have been loads for breakfast and coffee over the years but this was my first visit in the evening. Our food was lovely and the service was great, give it a go...we loved it. Paul

Great place, lovely and comfortable feels like you are in Greece! Just make sure you put aside 24 years for your order 😘

Everyone loved the food and the staff were so catering to different dietary needs. Wonderful time, lovely atmosphere and they went above any beyond

We had Cannelloni and spaghetti bolognese, and it was so delicious! Thanks for the lovely service as well

Encantadora noche en un ambiente muy cómodo y relajante. El personal era muy bueno y la comida era excelente. No puedo culparlo.

I went here on Saturday with my daughter and grandson. We asked do you fo pizza for children and they said no but we do for pasta. So my daughter ordered a pasta dish for her and a small pasta dish for me and a pizza I could share with my grandson. They came back with 3 pasta dishes and a pizza. We said you have got this wrong . They took one pasta dish away as we said we only wanted a small one. When the bill arrived they had charged full price for two large pasta dishes and the pizza. We spoke to our waiter who went back and explained and they refused to cut the price on the small pasta. We then refused yo pay service charge. Which they did take off. The thing is if they had done the order correctly we would of paid the service charge without a quibble . We will not be returning to this restaurant and will warn friends and family to stay clear.

Super fresh delicious calamari and pizza, and best hot chocolate we’ve ever had!

Had a pleasant sunday afternoon's dining here. This restaurant is extremely popular and has a comfortable feel with a good atmosphere. I went for the special menu as the rest of my party went for the set Sunday lunch deal. Firstly the wild bour ravioli. Which was ok but lacked flavours and very oily. Next I had the fish special of halibut, King prawns served with garlic spinach and capers. This dish was delicious and excellently presented. I'll combined this with some seasonal vegetables. Dessert was a mango cheese cake which was very nice. I had a nibble of my partner's sirloin of beef which was tasty..roast potatoes needed to be more crisper. Good wine but bottled lager only Would return Parking outside limited

Ballarò is now closed. This location is now Ristorante Sorrento
