The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Ottimo ristorante italiano A Londra. Spaghetti al granchio buonissimi e vero caffè italiano. Parola di siciliani in giro per mondo

I recently visited here for the first time in well over a decade. I’ll be honest, I’m amazed it’s survived the national economic uncertainty in a town like Grimsby. But I was looking forward to seeing if it was as good as I remembered. It wasn’t. Inside it literally hasn’t changed since I came here in 2009. The prices of the food aren’t too bad, but the drinks are extortionate. I was served a small, half pint glass of flat coke for £3.50!!! When the pizzas and pasta arrived, it honestly tasted pre made. The pasta sauce tasted exactly like dolmio and the pizza bases were absolutely not made in the restaurant. They also use cheddar cheese on the pizza, which is just rank. After spending £50 on dinner with drinks (which, by the way was £11 for three soft drinks!) I regretted my rose tinted nostalgia and realised I should have spent my money elsewhere. I won’t be back.

My son and I visited for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed our meal, we both had the veal saltimbocca which was excellent. The service from the two gentlemen however was not, it was rude, impersonal and impatient and only got worse after we paid our bill, which we had not asked for and which included a 10% service charge. This place would be greatly improved if they employed front of house staff with hospitality skills. We will not be back.

I had an incredible experience at this Bella Itália ! The food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Alexa, the manager, made the evening even better with her exceptional service—she was friendly, attentive, and truly made us feel at home. Highly recommend

Excellent takeaway pizza! Great deal on the half metre pizza!

The pizza is fine. They put ham in a vegetarian pasta. However they were apologetic and happy to remake it. A little bit on the pricey side for a takeaway.

We are currently at pasco's King William in Hull having a blast with bottomless brunch! Staff are friendly and welcoming, atmosphere is great and DJ had some great music. Will be coming again soon!!

We ate here on our second evening in Ayr following a recommendation by the owner of the guest house where we were staying. Seating is very comfortable and the restaurant is quite spacious. There’s a full menu of primarily Italian dishes with a good selection of pasta dishes and pizzas. The lasagne and pasta carbonara were very tasty along with a risotto dish. Service was very good…friendly and professional and despite being busy, staff were very observant. There’s a very large bar serving a particular good selection of cocktails. We thought prices were about average for the area and we enjoyed the experience of eating here.

Excellent pub. Great atmosphere. Reasonable prices for a city centre pub. Great food and entertainment.

I’m regular customer with my 2- Son’s has Austim, it is such a lovely Atmosphere with lovely Staff with a smile and they always do lovely Latte and Black Forest Hot chocolate..

Have stopped doing gluten free fish and chips. A backward step at a time when most places are increasing their gf offerings. Very disappointing.

I came here for a friend’s birthday and the food and service were top quality. My waitress was very friendly and looked after me and my friends well. The food came out in good timing and was nicely prepared and every dish was enjoyable to eat. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a great meal out, this is a place you’ll want to return to again and again.

The bistro is in the shopping center on the first floor. Were here for breakfast. Condition totally friendly. The food came super quickly. We really enjoyed it. Prices rather cheap. Clear recommendation.

Fantastic fish and chips. Big portions, but not cheap. Very tasty.

Good quality, smaller portions, reasonable service.
