The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Absolutely fabulous went for a friends birthday the cheese experience is something else. If you have not been then you really need to go. Excellent!!!!

vistied for a meal for 4. all food served was hot, well prepared and enjoyed, including provision of a pizza box for take home.

I discovered Pasta Out during lockdown, so unfortunately there was no availability to sit down and eat within, but the golden side to this was that I discovered their lovely take away service. The pasta is absolutely beautiful, so much so, that I will only have dry pasta in the house for emergencies only. There is a great choice of freshly made pasta and if they don't have any left, they will make it for you there and then. Easy to cook and beautifully fresh, soft and tasty. Highly recommended.

This is assolutamente fantastico, the staff was lovely and the gelato tasted amazing with loads of different flavours. Would definitely recommend

Laurel and Alex catered for our wedding this year and we can no recommend them enough! We love Mediterranean food and wanted something as a tapas style and they came up with the most amazing sounding menu....We were absolutely blown away when we went for the tasting session with them and they made the whole process really stress-free. There was not 1 person at our wedding who was not bowled over by the food we had on our wedding day and we still have friends and family talking about it now and wanting the recipes!!! We just want to say a massive thank you to Alex and Laurel for going above and beyond to help make our day unforgettable and we will definitely be recommending you to everyone!!!!

Came in for a quick lunch before heading to the museum. Cozy place with amazing homely food! Will be coming back whenever we are in the area.

My husband and I were staying at the travelodge, station road, Durham and decided we would walk into Durham for something to eat. We spotted the Little Sicily Italian restaurant just in front of the hotel and decided to grab a pizza. I can recommend the food, the pizza was lovely and staff very pleasant. If you're staying at the travelodge go no further, try the Little Sicily Italian restaurant.

Visited last night for partners birthday. Small, cosy restaurant, lovely friendly staff. My only complaint was the gorgeous food, which it was, was served all too fast. Food was served Tapas style, which meant our main courses came out whilst we were still eating our starters, all became a little chaotic. Would have liked more time to appreciate the food and savour the experience rather than trying to eat everything before it went cold. It's not as though they are rushing you out of the door, as they weren't, so why all the food at the same time .... Just relax a little Lorenzo.

The Italians that run this cafe are so lovely. The manager helped me with my baby and they were so quick to get me anything I wanted. Nice sofa in the window too!

So pleased this little restaurant has reopened. We were made very welcome and had a lovely meal. We had a prawn risotto and lasagne, both delicious and we then shared a tirimasu. Portions are generous with some nice complimentary additions of breadsticks, homemade pesto and cute little homemade ice creams when we asked for the bill. Cosy place with a small menu offering traditional food which is tasty and well presented. A choice of red, white or rose wine (italian and very drinkable) beer or soft drinks to accompany your food. Prices are very reasonable and the family are welcoming. We really enjoyed our visit and will return again.

The best ice cream I have tasted in UK. Took me 25 and odd years to taste something the real Italian gelato (if not even better). Unfortunately limited choice of flavours for my likening but what we tasted was all amazing. Brits please don't stick to vanilla, chocolate and raspberry. Push your boats. The orange and saffron was delicious. Home made cones is an extra bonus too. Well done. Or should I say: Bravi, mamma mia!

Always a warm welcome from the amazing Ombretta & Ante. It feels less of a bar and more like an extension of home, with friends!

A fantastic find in Kingswear, right by the steam railway , no need to cross to the busier side of Dartmouth. Great views and lovely simple Italian dishes

Our Landlady recommended it to us when we asked about somewhere to eat Italian. Small and bijou.Great staff and the food is outstanding and reasonably priced . A must to visit would go back in a heartbeat.

We hired these guys to do our wedding breakfast. We had a New York theme and wanted to have a relaxed day with nothing too fancy so we decided on pizza. Heard great reviews so went ahead. The weather was beyond awful and the team struggled to cope. I was always worried it would rain and reassured they would set up the tent as close to the marquee as possible so the guests wouldn’t get wet. They couldn’t set up the tent because of the wind, something that hadn’t been considered. Overall they tried hard with the pizzas, cooking them then running them into the marquee but it was a shambles and people waited ages for pizza. In the meantime they ran out of side salads when we were only halfway through serving. I had ordered salads for 80 and was reassured it was enough food. We had 70 guests and still ran out only feed half of them. Embarrassing to say the least. We had to ask our evening caters to start serving early! When I wrote to them after the wedding to say thank you but i was disappointed I was simply told the guests eat too much not leaving enough for others.
