The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Great quality food and large portion sizes. Staff are really friendly.

Went for a family meal staff were so friendly and fun and the food was amazing

I'm Spanish and I visited Pulcinella Pizzeria in West Ealing with my family during Semana Santa — and it was a fantastic experience! They had a delicious set menu for just £12, which was amazing value for such authentic Italian food. The pizza was perfectly cooked in their wood-fired oven, and the ingredients were fresh and full of flavor. The staff was friendly and made us feel very welcome. The cozy atmosphere made it a great spot for a family meal. Definitely one of the best meals we had during our trip. Highly recommended!

Wonderful old school restaurant. Large portions and reasonably priced. Have been going here for years and never had a bad experience. Highly recommend.

Gluten Free heaven. I have the mushroom bruschetta and the gluten free bread was so delicious. For main i had the Parmigiana which was so cheesy. And finally for dessert i had the Caprese, which is an almond flourless cake, with some gelato on top… everything was so so delicious and fantastic for gluten free. I only wish they had a gluten free pizza option as the pizzas looked amazing. I have posted my daughter’s pizza. Fully recommended for everyone.

Estamos aquí por primera vez para la mayor parte de nuestro grupo de 7 , antes de tomar asiento en la casa de juegos de al lado. El ambiente era relajado e informal, pero una buena elección de aperitivos y platos principales en el menú pre teatro. Los puerros estofados eran particularmente buenos y la pasta de pesto de ajo silvestre era excelente.

Amazing flavours and friendly service

We had a wonderful family meal at the Bridge to celebrate my parents 45th wedding anniversary. There was nothing that was too much trouble for our fantastic host, Fabio, who looked after us throughout. The food was excellent from starter to desert, the wine was superb too. Everything was reshly prepared, full of flavour and of the highest quality. I noted that some other reviews have complained about the pace or attentiveness of service; but for us the whole evening was a delight in winding back, relaxing, talking to each other and soaking in the experience. The night was capped off with some complimentary limoncello to celebrate the family celebration. We will certainly be back for more.

Just simply great pizza. I had a slice of salami and a slice of a sausage pizza. Really enjoyed it, nice crisp base, and lots of flavour on both slices, will definitely visit again and try some more toppings ! 🙂

We had lunch at Tarantino in Hornchurch. We’ve been using this restaurant for around 25 years and have never been disappointed. We had the set lunch menu which was two courses for £19.95 and shared a bottle of their house white wine which was very palatable. The manager served us and he was friendly and knowledgeable. Yes we will be return.

Been here before many years ago but I had forgotten about this gem of a place. Good menu, sensible prices (eg mid week 2 courses for £16, 3 for £20) and great food. My garlic bread with caramelised onions was huge and delicious. Lasagne for main was excellent. No complaints from the rest of the group either so I'd be happy to recommend it!

A huge thank you to Davide, Eleanor and the team for making my mum's surprise party so special. You were incredibly accommodating, patient and welcoming. The food was lovely, too, especially that tiramisu!

Visited the newly revamped Medmex that has now been renamed Cloud 9 for a birthday celebration on a Thursday evening. We had a young member of our family with us and an elderly lady. Should have changed the name to Cloud Vape or Cloud Chav. A group of young adults sat drinking and vaping without caring about other customers. Felt like I was in a roudy pub in a city centre. The noise from one young woman was horrendous. Shouting and swearing at top of her voice totally spoilt our meal. We asked the young barman to intervene and he explained the proprietor wasn't in to sort it! My advice to that young barman...grow a pair! He did eventually ask them to quieten down. Young teens kept coming in off the street just to use the toilet. One of our party was sure he saw small packets exchanged in the mens loos. Not something we want our youngsters to experience. Mediocre food okay and served quickly, however, we won't be returning anytime soon unless the clientelle improves, even our teens were discusted by what they witnessed.

We’ve been here twice now, the food and service are always exceptional

Rude Owner, average food, tiring Decor and pricy. A tacky restaurant that could be placed in a tourist trapp destination. The owner is only pleaseant with regulars. If he does't know you, hostility and rudeness are on the way.Avoid it!
