The best restaurants in United Kingdom serving Italian food

Managed to get a reservation the same day, friendly welcome and seated at a lovely table for 3, atmosphere was very nice and the house white wine was fabulous. We ordered the chicken parmo, lamb kebab and pepperoni pizza all of which was absolutely delicious. 10/10 and would definitely recommend. Portion sizes were large and service was excellent. Would definitely recommend and we will be back very soon.

We celebrated my daughter birthday with this guys and the reality was way beyond expectations, the girls where engaged from the beginning to the end they had so much fun making their own pizzas and the staff was always so kind and patient even knowing that we started the party late. They managed every single detail with care from allergies to little demands, and for me the most important bit was that we were never felt rushed through the 2 hrs slot, all run spotless. In the end we had 12 young happy little girls. Highly recommend, thank you team for such good experience

Fantastic , affordable Italian food . Staff were very good and the pizza was very very good. The restaurant does get busy after 6pm so might be best to book but I just walked in and got a table no problem. Front of house staff are brilliant and are a credit to the brand. Looking forward to a return visit

Don’t visit that often but have in the past and felt was ok. Decided to go again and found that the restaurant itself was bland with no mood or atmosphere. I remembered a lovely mural on the wall of an Italian scene - now painted over so just plain walls, with stark lighting. Menu was much reduced, with more Spanish ingredients than Italian - chicken, chorizo and nduja making up about four different dishes. Several of the dishes we were told we unavailable due to them not having the right pasta🫤, after one half of Pironi, they had run out… this is early on a Friday night…. And no honeycomb gelato. The meals were ok, I could have done better myself and will do next time… cheese and garlic bread was their only saviour… that was nice. But what tipped me over the edge to write this review was when we came to pay, we were informed that they couldn’t take cash, not a surprise these days, but that they also couldn’t take a card as the machine wasn’t working…. 🤦‍♀️ I had no signal so needed Wi-Fi…. They don’t have it apparently…. So their solution was to write their bank details on a piece of paper and make everyone do a bank transfer straight away before leaving the building…. And you also had to leave you phone number so if you didn’t pay the right amount the could ring you. Very poor. We felt sorry for the waitresses who were very apologetic and appeared embarrassed every time they had to deliver bad news to us for various reasons…Otherwise they were very pleasant. Get out while you can would be our advice to them, as the writing is on the wall for the business as far as we can see. Will not be visiting again under the current management. Shame…😕

El servicio fue pésimo, peor imposible. Fui con mi familia, la comida no hay como describirla grasienta, de supermercado, el menú infantil, me lo cobraron y solo le trajeron al menor un plato, cuando deberian traer 3 y aun por encima no cobrarlo porque tienen una oferta y lo peor a la hora de pagar me cobraron la propina 2 veces. En resumidas cuentas nada recomendable, pésimo en trato y calidad y aún por encima caro, muy caro para lo que sirven. Id a cualquier sitio menos aquí Es local de Paddington Ahhhh!!!! Se me olvidaba y la limpieza, inexistente, vimos como limpiaban y no limpiaban...

Nice family run aesthetic Italian place. The pizza was on the small side for the price and little too salty for my taste but would definitely come again to try the pasta next time.

Sadly the pistachio had no pistachio flavor at all.

Enjoyed a nice evening out on Tastecard which gives us 2 for 1. We had starters and main and drinks. Roxie delivered great service and she made our visit tonight extra special with her personable manner and this being her first week at Prezzo! Worth noting that portions (esp starter) has shrunk and prices have crept up but with a voucher or Tastecard it is still worth it :-)

The Owner, Ben, is a magician. Amazing food, fresh ingredients, atmosphere is amazing. Staff is supper friendly, deliocious breakfeasts, in city centre, good coffee, nice tea. Clean and neat. 71A Northgate, next to parking. I higly recommend it. As well as Pizza yard. Enjoy! Bellisdimo!!!

This was my first trip to Ambleside and it was just me and my dog. I knew Luigi’s was dog friendly. I had not reserved a table but they accommodated me no problem. The ladies that served me were amazing and the food was gorgeous. Would highly recommend. The open fire downstairs was a lovely bonus. Will be coming back, thank you Luigi’s

Beautiful restaurant ! Delicious authentic italian food !

Thank you italian farmhouse managers and staff. What an outstanding service I have had. I hired italian farmhouse for my daughters birthday and from start to finish the service I received was amazing. I was unsure of what I wanted and kept swapping and changing my mind not once was I made to feel this was an issue,I just in the end decided I wanted something basic and simple like sausage rolls, wedges, sandwiches. I got this with the fun element for kids making their own pizza! They loved it and went down a treat! I have a niece who I didnt inform had a nut allergy ( my bad ) they were prepared to clean all surfaces allow us to check ingredients and make something for her but understandably said whilst they would do their best they couldn't guarantee so we declined and they allowed us to order in a pizza, this obviously is someones business but I feel to do this they want more than just money they want to give and make customers feel valued and welcome I was so impressed. Staff constantly checked everything was ok, constantly asked if anything else was needed they were prompt in bringing out food and keeping the area clean and tidy, nothing at all seemed to be a bother to them. I also had a courtesy call making sure all had went ok as I'd changed my mind that many times. Thank you so much italian farmhouse for an amazing memory for my little girl. We will most definitely be becoming regulars!

We visited the restaurant a few weeks ago, and the manager, Sean, recommended few places to visit in Wallasey. We came back today for lunch and the food was delicious, and very friendly staff.

Bizarre customer service... We enjoyed excellent meals at Portofino New Brighton, over several months, but on this occasion we have have been put off from going there again. On the plus side, the food quality is normally excellent , and on most visits staff were attentive and helpful, but one of the young Italian waiters is unfortunately not good at English, and this impacts on service; he often has to refer questions to his manager, because he doesn't understand them. He doesn't even understand some basic restaurant terms, such as 'gluten' On this latest occasion though, it was the manager who took our food orders; his English is good, but the Sea Bass my partner ordered, came with a completely unrecognisable sauce, not one described on the menu. She also suspected that the sea bass was mackerel (or another different fish). When my partner questioned him, he was adamant that it was sea bass, but bizarrely said that "we sometimes change the sauces". Er, no....I thought, restaurants do not "change sauces" without discussion with the customer. The manager also offered to go to the kitchen to discuss the matter with the chef and he would " come back shortly" But he didn't return. At all, ever..... He hadn't left the restaurant because we saw him chatting to other customers at the bar, on our way out. At the same sitting, I was given Ravioli in a rather sickly cream sauce, instead of the Canneloni dish which I had ordered. I didn't complain because we had already questioned my partners dish, so I just eat the meal, which I didn't enjoy. So this restaurant has lost 2 regular customers due to what appeared to be odd, bizarre behaviour by the manager. I notice that Portofino, New Brighton, don't respond to any of these reviews; They obviously don't care, not interested. They should be . If you go there, be careful that the staff have properly understood your order, and reject it if it isn't exactly what you ordered , is my advice.

He pasado por este lugar muchas veces, ¿alguna vez me arrepentí, fui a comer solo para encontrar un pequeño gran escondite, la comida estaba al rojo vivo y muy sabrosa. Algunas personas aquí no tienen testículos, lo hacemos fue maravilloso. Volveré la próxima visita.
