The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Super slow service, bad quality food (ordered chicken and cheese panini and there was literally no cheese) and dry bread. Plus £5 extra charge for dine in instead of takeaway which wasn't even mentioned while placing the order. Also kind of rude.

Acabamos de comer 1 de las 2 pizzas pedidas y estaban muy sabrosas, no hemos estado aquí por años y desearíamos haber vuelto antes. Creo que teníamos la corteza fina, una con jamón y piña la otra salchicha y pepperoni. Era encantador, caliente y nada grasiento como la mayoría de los que se obtienen hoy en día de las cadenas y comida local para llevar, fue razonablemente apreciado con el 2 por £ 14 y tomará unas rodajas para trabajar mañana. Sin duda volveremos, señora que me sirvió fue muy amable y servicial. Sin duda recomendaría.

La comida y el servicio excelentes necesito decir más. Pequeña y amable en primera línea de mar la comida era divina el personal excelente servicio.

Una buena selección de deliciosas mezzalunas a un precio razonable, además de que siempre tienen una vegana que ofrecer. Un buen lugar para ir en Nottingham para el almuerzo y un café con amigos. Es especialmente bueno si usted es un estudiante, y puede cronometrar su pedido para que coincida con una de sus ofertas especiales diarias. Solo ten cuidado de no ir en horas pico si quieres sentarte ya que el lugar es pequeño y se pone mega ocupado.

First time at the Curator and it didn't disappoint, the food and drink were excellent, reasonably priced and blooming delish. I would highly recommend it to all!

We normally go here for a coffee when we visit Yarm and I rarely write negative reviews unless it’s bad. But honestly, we didn’t even get a chance to have a coffee because we waited so long. We were bypassed by the waitress who collected the orders from two separate tables that came in after us. There was a sign that said ‘Take a seat we’ll come to you’ but I only realised that after waiting as we have done in the past before getting up and seeing it at the till. I decided to sit down again as the waitress was bussing tables. We were there for half an hour! Even though we took the last table and yet sat there until multiple tables had left we were still waiting. The waitress then decide to stand and talk to one table for nearly 10 minutes while we’re still waiting, so I decided to get up again and order at the till. We were still sat waiting for the coffee the other tables received their drinks yet we were still waiting. The man at the counter seemed nice but maybe if he wasn’t flirting with the lady who wasn’t doing much at the back, they may have noticed that we had been sat for nearly half an hour. After still waiting we decided to leave and go to Neros. We probably won’t be back even though we know the coffee is nice but service this time was awful and probably will continue like this. Whether or not they purposely ignored us because we weren’t regulars or for whatever other reason, we know we can get equally nice coffee and better service elsewhere.

Bad attitude and bad food , would never recommend this to anyone, owner swears at customers

A hidden gem! We absolutely love The Italian and we’ve been several times since moving to Romiley in summer 2024. Delicious food which offers great value for money. The portion sizes are always generous. Can’t fault the service - the staff have always been incredibly friendly and welcoming. We love The Italian and will continue to support this fab local business!

Got a takeaway kofta platter for 16.50. Two meat cylinders with nice flavour. However got some dead chips some basic salad and some pita, which could all be straight from asda. Wasn't worth the money at all.

Welcomed, seated, ordered drinks. Busy. Music far too loud. Food ordered, ten minute wait. Delicious. One grumble - portion size - immense. Wish there was an option for a more moderate size - same price, just less waste. Friendly helpful staff.

Hemos querido probar este auténtico restaurante italiano / romano del barrio y ahora por fin. Después de 12 días en el hospital ansiaba una buena cocina casera, así que la pasta de ragu era perfecta, carnosa y fácil de digerir. Mi esposa tomó la pizza de anchoa, que ella pensó que era la mejor pizza que ha tomado en más de 60 años. El servicio era eficiente, y una mesa fuera en el sol era perfecto

Well I visited this restaurant for the first time with my Italian partner and tell you what it was a HIT! My partner is from Sicily and very hard to please, to say the least doesn't like any Italian restaurant soo much in London. This Place made her happy. She says 'real Italian is this'! Fantastic service, the waiter was amazing, food nicely presented and great aura about the place. There is a good variety of dishes from Italy and their specials on the board were appealing. In fact I will have to visit again as she really want to eat everything ;) Also it was good on my pocket.

As someone with Italian heritage, I’m always on the lookout for food that truly captures the flavours of my Nonna - and “Little Italy” in Sunbury did exactly that. I had the Spaghetti al Nero di Seppia, and it was absolutely outstanding. The prawns were packed with flavour and the sauce was rich and delicious— not to mention the rarity it is to find black pasta on an English menu ! It was easily on par with anything I’ve eaten in Italy. I also had a couple of Peronis, served perfectly cold, which made the whole experience even better. There is a clear sense of pride both for Italy and for the restaurant and the product/ service provided from the staff within, an absolute pleasure all round. Little Italy delivers an authentic taste of Italy right here in Sunbury. Highly recommended for anyone who loves proper Italian food done right.

Looking for somewhere a bit nicer outside of Mablethorpe, we took the 20 minute country drive out here for dinner with some friends, a mixed group of adults and children. On arrival the entrance looked tiny, but it’s a tardis. In side it feels and smells stylish and upmarket. The food is good and sensibly priced, and the staff were friendly. Would go back again, and if I lived local this would be a place I’d visit regularly.

Tuvimos una cena encantadora un domingo por la noche. El restaurante tiene un ambiente relajado encantador y sirve comida italiana genuina. Nuestra comida era deliciosa. El personal es muy amable y atento. Muy recomendable.
