The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Tried to visit Francesco & Amorosa for another superb Italian meal, but found the restaurant closed. Oh no. We have been eating at Francisco's for a few years now and always have fantastic food served with passion and friendship. The end of an era. Wishing you both a long and happy retirement. Affectionately yours; Claudio (Ranieri), Sylvia & Da Grandson. All the very best....

Over 20 of us visited to celebrate my 50th birthday and we had the best night! Food was amazing, service was excellent and the atmosphere was 10 out of 10. After our food, the music was turned up and we had the best night dancing away and had such fun with the waiters. Thank you to Puntos for making it such a special night. Highly recommend visiting this restaurant, you won’t be disappointed! A little gem that you must visit.

Went for dinner on 30/10/24 and I can honestly say the food was incredible! The pizzas were so tasty, not too doughy with great flavours. The tiramisu was amazing, with super light sponge. Staff were lovely and very attentive. The whole experience was great from start to finish. Will definitely be eating here again!

What a cute little restaurant! Excellent pasta and tiramisu, beautiful Chianti by the glass, good service and very cheap.

Gem of a place! Authentic and lovely food. Great staff and atmosphere! Love this place

Lovely little restaurant, amazing food and friendly staff. Went here on a recommendation and so pleased we did. Delicious olives and the fish for main was perfect. We will certainly be returning very soon.

Great food, friendly staff and great atmosphere at a good price. Free bread, olives and birthday shots too. Excellent!

Fresh and tasty. Have eaten in the restaurant a number of times and the delivered food was of the same quality.

We love this place and visit often, but this weekend it was our wedding anniversary, the lovely ladies even brought us an anniversary card, it made us feel very special this was so sweet. The staff are always very welcoming, kind and professional, whenever we visit, and the food is always amazing and so fresh, Woburn Thai is definitely one of the best Thai restaurants we have ever been to.

So I’ll start with a positive …. We booked a table after visiting previously where the food and service was excellent. We brought some friends and on arrival were shown promptly to our table. The restaurant was busy and had a lovely buzzy feel however …….. we waited nearly half an hour to be asked if we’d like drinks, we ordered a bottle of red and a chilled bottle of white. They arrived 10 minutes later … with no glasses. We waited another 10 minutes for the glasses to arrive after having to ask the rather abrupt waitress … the glasses had clearly just come out of the dishwasher as they were red hot so had to wait another 15 mins for them to cool so we could pour our wine. Our starters were nice but the main courses … I ordered the lobster tortellini from the specials board …. What arrived was a seafood ravioli which was so salty I couldn’t eat it. The pollo alla crème was rubbery and not nice. To be fair, when the waitress asked if our meals were ok and I said about my pasta, without hesitation she said she’d take it off the bill. We were so disappointed as we’d really looked forward to it after a previous great experience - not likely to return sadly

What an amazing gem of a place. We went for drinks and light bites and the food was amazing. Lovely atmosphere outside on a warm summers evening. We can’t wait to go again.

First time back since new owners have come in. It’s been a while since our visit to Stefanos and naturally we wondered if it was as good. Greeted with warm friendly staff, free bread and sharing starter we knew it was going to be a good meal. The wine was perfect temperature, the food was served perfectly on time, the free potatoes with the main meal were all lovely touches. The food was unbelievable, the value for money with the children’s meal was outstanding. Puddings served fresh in the open kitchen behind all finished in minutes. We booked back in before we even finished the bottle of wine. It’s not just as good as before, it might even be better… Bravo 👍🏻

Great food asked for the garlic bread to have no cheese and it turned out perfect was really enjoyed

great service, great food and a very good price

It's a small, family run restaurant. The food and service are excellent. The a la carte price is also very reasonable. The lunch time set menu even more reasonable! Need to book another visit soon.
