The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

The BEST meal of 2023 we’ve had. Honestly just such comforting and delicious food. Friendly service and just homey interior, we are making this such a regular spot!!!! The price is unreal, couldn’t believe it when we got the bill would have happily paid double and not batted an eyelid!! MUST VISIT!!

Recuerda este lugar (hace unos años) como buen lugar para un tiempo tranquilo conmigo con café de buena calidad pero ya no (enero 2025 ) Latte sabe a gota de café diluido en cubo de leche y ruido... . omg. Honestamente, más tranquilo está en la calle. Y el personal no ayuda en esto arrastrando jaulas pesadas y traqueteantes a través de la puerta de entrada de la cafetería y el piso, golpeando y dejando caer cosas detrás de la barra. Evita como una plaga. Un espacio restaurado bastante fresco eliminó mis puntos favoritos en la ventana junto a las neveras de exhibición de alimentos y ahora tienes allí estantes estilo andamio con mercancía que nadie compra. Desperdicio masivo de espacio y quién cubre la vista en la plaza y los árboles con algo así? Esta plaza es hermosa durante los meses de primavera / verano. Desventajas principales - super ruidoso, sin posibilidad de reunir sus pensamientos y extremadamente lleno - la gente está sentada allí como gallinas en una percha. La calidad del café disminuyó masivamente, como los propietarios que ahorran en cantidades de café que obtiene. No recomiendo este lugar.

Mi colega y yo visitamos recientemente Guido's en New Fetter Lane para el almuerzo y pedimos la pasta carbonara. Lamentablemente, ambos estábamos extremadamente decepcionados con el plato. La salsa tenía un sabor demasiado agrio, haciéndola no comestible. Terminamos desperdiciándolo. Pagamos 9 libras. 50 y tenía que basurear la comida. No podíamos ir porque teníamos reuniones a las que asistir. No volveremos nunca más.

Recently visited on our holiday. Great food, really tasty and served promptly. Even a picky daughter was happy. Highly recommend.

It's now called Hedon Pizza, good choice of takeaway food, recommend the chicken kebab. The pizza are good aswell.

Dijimos que volveríamos y nos alegraría haberlo hecho. Llamamos por la noche y nos alegramos de que tuvieran una mesa para nosotros. Como de costumbre, la comida era genial, fresca y sabrosa - tuve una pizza y mi hija el rey gambas y plato de pasta. Mimmo era un anfitrión increíble con una gran personalidad; nos hizo sentir tan bienvenidos. No podemos recomendar SV lo suficientemente alto. No lo dudes - ¡reserva una mesa ahora! x

We recently attended a wedding at Oaklands Hall. The staff are excellent here, they go out of their way to ensure you have a great experience. The 3 course meal was delicious and the staff were attentive and brought water when needed, they replenished the wine promptly and cleared everything away in good time. The buffet later on was also lovely, including some yummy chips which a lot of buffets don’t do but were very welcome. The toilets are modern and clean and no issues with lack of paper, nice little basket of toiletries too. The room is a good size and bright. If you were booking a wedding here in the summer you might be put off by the lack of outside space as it’s just the car park but it wasn’t an issue for the wedding we attended. I would say book your function here and you won’t be disappointed. The MC is very friendly and happy to help with any queries.

Unfortunately I didn't have a good experience here. The food was delivered upstairs without any cutlery. I didn't mind and went downstairs to get some, making sure I went to be Tiro so I was taking cutlery from the place I had ordered the food. The 2 chefs were busy, one had just brought the food to my table, I took a knife and fork from the counter and the man who had just delivered the food snapped my head off. I explained that I had just ordered from him and he hadn't brought us any cutlery... He had just been at my table 2 minutes before so I would have expected him to recognise me. He continued to look at me in disgust and shake his head at me... I found it hard to understand why someone could get so angry over disposable cutlery. I will not be ordering from here again.

This restaurant was a great find. Food was excellent. We had a mixture of steaks, fish and pasta dishes with a lovely side selection of vegetables. All cooked to perfection. Dessert's were good to. All reasonable priced. Would recommend Silvano's.

Came across this place and noticed they sold grounded coffee and purchased it. 5 minutes later after walking away I realised that they sold me coffee beans, so went back and politely asked if this could be exchanged- which the staff said even though they advertise it they didnt sell it and only sell the beans-so requested a refund. At this point they couldn’t see my transaction on the till and asked if I even paid for it? The guy who served me was there but didn’t mention he served me at that time- I was then asked to check my internet banking to check the transaction has gone through and for them to see this also???? Because if it didn’t go through then no refund is required????(Could have asked the staff member who served me?????) Eventually they found my purchase- said it’s been refunded- but still hasn’t. So keep the £6… not worth the re visit.

INCREDIBLE party pizzas. Adults and children alike were so impressed with the quality of the party pizzas. They arrived hot and on time, and were well worth the money. I would highly recommend!

We visited this restaurant in midweek, an early evening meal as we had heard good things about- my long suffering partner opted for a wrap and she was pleased with the fresh ingredients and the portion size was perfect- the fries were crispy and fluffy (I had my own portion as I value my safety), my lamb kebab was beautifully spiced and aromatic with the Bulgar rice a perfect accompaniment. I also tried the Turkish wine that had lovely cherry notes and just to be sure I had another. The lovely owners provided an additional, complementary starter and a taster of a dessert which was a nice touch. The menu also provides pizzas and burgers and therefore there should be something for everyone - they also offer takeaways. Highly recommended for a relaxing and nourishing meal

We took our granddaughter here for lunch. Great place, the food was excellent and the people serving were very friendly and accommodating. Really nice atmosphere. We'd definitely go to KIm's next time we're in Hume.

Me and my partner were looking for somewhere for dinner that wasn’t too expensive. This was less than a five min walk from our hotel. Upon arriving, we were greeted by very welcoming and friendly staff. Both the food and service were incredible and if we are ever in the area again, we will definitely be stopping by!

Although name has changed, this bakery is perfect for some 'start your day' brekky! From pastries to fry ups this bakery has it all..and whilst your there you can buy lunch too from different pasta choices to rolls with numerous fillings to choose from!
