The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Lovely restaurant, great service, good food, nice atmosphere and reasonable price. I had the tagliatelle bolognaise and it was so tasty, the house white wine, a Sicilian one, was also extremely nice, and our waitress was so helpful and friendly. We had a lovely experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Excellent meal with fab wine. Went on a week night and what a delight. Service wasn’t fast but it was date night so didn’t care!

A real Osteria. You just show up ....and get fed really great food. It's a delight not to have to " choose from the menu" . Just enjoy what comes along. Which ,in our experience, is always delicious. Negroni's are good too! There are lots of places to eat "Italian food" . This is an honest and authentic restaurant that I would always rather go to. Recommended for the food and the experience.

On arrival we were eager to get out of the awful weather, it was warm and inviting but dead with no other diners but looking ahead to a nice evening. The first thing we noticed was the music which was continuous italian power ballads didn’t fit the ambiance. After half an hour we were joined by some more diners eight in total and all in their sixties through out our time. The food is nice but my wife’s main course of pasta with strips of beef fillet was disappointing the beef was more of a mince like in texture. The wine choice was nice but the service was flat, when paying we noticed they hadn’t taken off the pre payed twenty pounds deposit which was then amended only when we pointed it out. A strange evening we won’t be back..

Visited for Valentine Night Out, excellent food, lovely staff and nicely spaced out tables , nice not to be able to hear your neighbours conversation. Lovely staff presented me with a rose at the end of the evening, lovely gesture.

Let's get this straight it's pretty decent pizza. Not the best , but the best in the area. The problem is the customer service or lack of. Tonight we rang every 3-4 minutes for 20 minutes as the kids wanted pizza and no one ever picked up the phone and it kept redirecting to some mobile. Now if this was the first incidence of this I could let it slide but it's happened the last three times we have tried to order and gave in.

Great Food, lovely people, Lovely Place.

I knew that this pub was under new management and my friend had recently been here and said the meal was good so I thought I would invite me friends for dinner, I was not disappointed, the service, food and cosiness of the pub was excellent and would return, I had to trout and crumble and it was delicious and could of done with some more custard. Freddie who took our order and served us was exceptionally professional and funny too. Only minor point is when we were going in from the back it looked like it could do with a bit of love and pretty flowers. Look forward to returning maybe in the autumn when the fire is on.

We thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to Bellini on Saturday evening. The restaurant is very clean, comfortable and modern with a very nice atmosphere. My wife is a vegetarian and was very happy with the options available. My fresh salmon steak was delicious . The food was beautifully cooked and there was enough time between courses. The staff are very friendly and efficient. It was reasonably priced and we will definitely be returning in the future.

Tiny place, excellent food, great service, good value, what more could you want? I had Monkfish in Prosecco Batter, the batter was the lightest I'd ever had, delicious. I'm recently back from Sicily so couldn't resist the Linguine Alla Puttanesca which was perfect too, much better actually than a similar dish in Sicily.

We popped in for takeaway pizza on our way back from the beach and after a cheeky pint at the Driftwood Spars…. This place did not disappoint, pizzas were a good size, dough was fresh and well cooked and plenty of toppings…..tasted great too! A surprise was the amount of craft beer available to purchase, well worth a visit!

This is the best Italian restaurant I have eaten in in a long time. Grown-up servers who know their job and are pleasant in manner. Sensible menu. Decently done food. Proper wine list. Only niggle was that it was very noisy. All those hard surfaces you see (and that bloke at a nearby table who was banging on about his life story to his companions.) There was some entertainment: the wine store was a shelf behind where a group were sitting. A man had his back to the shelf and periodically was asked by the waitress to pull out a bottle of such-and-such wine that she needed for another table. All of this was done with good grace, and it was fun to watch. £72, two starters, two mains, bottle of Primitivo, two coffees We loved it.

We go here as a group on a regular basis and always have great food. The staff are friendly and good fun. We go as a group and it's never too loud, we can always hear the conversation. Prices are reasonable and food is good quality. Highly recommend Deanos. Already booked for our next meet up

We came her for my sisters birthday. The food was made fresh and all of our food was delicious. Staff were very attentive and service was great.
