The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Great value .traditional.friendly .just great 👍

My husband attended Fiume with a large work group for dinner. He pre ordered his meal beforehand. He says the service was friendly & efficient. His starter of mozzarella & ham was fine but the rocket with it was not dressed at all. His main course of swordfish seemed very mushy & undercooked (frozen perhaps) After a few mouthfuls he decided not to risk it as it wasn't right & didn't taste very good. During the middle of the night he woke up with a terrible upset tummy & cramps etc. He knew exactly what had caused it. Unfortunately he probably won't visit again.

First time visiting and we was not disappointed at all beautiful restaurant friendly pleasant staff we had the three course deal and food was beautiful I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely return again soon

I was taken here by my partner for my birthday dinner. We've actually been meaning to go for a couple of years but only now have got round to it. The wait was worth it. It was a Thursday evening and relatively quiet, but a nice atmosphere - the dining room is nicely decorated, catering for groups of different sizes, nicely lit and with period posters of Sicily around the walls. The eponymous chef says she wants to bring the food of Sicily to her restaurant and was inspired by the meals her grandmother cooked. As such the menu is not innovative or adventurous, but brings an authentic taste of Sicilian dishes. My partner started with calamari, which was nicely fried and flavoursome; I had fried haloumi, also very pleasant. We both had beef ragu to follow, which was tasty, well cooked and very filling! The big question was, did it taste like something our Italian mother or grandmother (if we had one) would serve up at home - well, yes, it did, so Rosanna is meeting her goal! A nice surprise was that, as it was by birthday, I was offered tiramisu on the house - and lovely it was too, delicate and very light. The wine list was the length one might expect at a small restaurant but was good quality, which is far more important than quantity. The waiter (Ayann?) was friendly, attentive and efficient. My only (very slight) suggestion for an improvement would be linen, rather than paper, napkins. My partner and I have enjoyed two lovely holidays in Sicily in recent years, and this was a very pleasant way to remind ourselves of this wonderful island. We will definitely not be waiting two years to go back to Rosanna's!

Wonderfully fresh, seasonal menu, changing daily. There aren’t many restaurants left offering fresh linen on the tables and traditional waiting staff! The ambiance is vibrant and welcoming as if you were on holiday in Italy. Food and service is excellent, I can highly recommend.

Thank you to Ellen and her team for hosting my daughters 8th birthday. Fantastic, kid friendly experience. Good value for money. Would definitely recommend.

Something gone wrong with this place, one time favourite for good Italian. Now the usual rubber garlic bread like all the other take aways in chorley, Lasagne-hardly any pasta, Sloppy with huge lumps of mince, Spag bog chillied up. Disappointed. I liked the starter though.

If you want authentic homemade pizza this is a great place to be at. Perfect location with lovely staff members. Would highly recommend. Special thanks to Mathew for great service and recommending amazing food.

En gullig servitris, resten katastrof. En beef var små odefinierad köttbitar i en sås. Först fick vi inte byta smashed pitatis till pommes. Utan de skulle ta in potatisen ändå och debitera extra får pommes. Efter en diskussion, så gick det tror jag. Vi har inte fått notan ännu. Ingen sallad för ej köttätare. Det känns advokadosallad med kyckling och bacon. Efter liten diskussion gick det bra att ta bort kyckling/bacon och lägga till extra advocado ist. Sen fanns det ingen avokado, så då blev det ingen sallad. Till Teet fanns först honung, sen ingen. Efter att jag berättade att det borde finas honung i köket, så kom den.

We came here after attending the races for the day. We were a large group and very merry. The staff were brilliant and service was great! Food was delicious! We even enjoyed a shot of limoncello to finish our meal off!

El mejor lugar en Londres para pasta Federica es el mejor ❤️❤️ el lugar es tan bonito y el servicio es tan bueno❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 Volveré

Best Italian in town. I come back to Barrow from Helsinki at least once a year and Salvana’s is always my first meal out. Always top! One thing though guys, you need to take some new pictures of the food for trip advisor because the current ones don’t do justice to the excellent and beautifully presented dishes!

This was a lovely meal and a good Primitivo wine by the glass. But it's changing name and nature on 1 January

Excelente almuerzo , gran servicio en un cálido ambiente relajado. Me alegro de verlo. muchos habituales que regresan con evidente familiaridad y amor por el personal. EL MEJOR TIRAMISU DE LA HISTORIA!

Desafortunadamente, esta fue una de las peores experiencias que hemos tenido en Pizza Express. Si bien entiendo que fue una noche ajetreada, esperamos casi una hora por nuestra comida a pesar de que nos dijeron que solo tomaría alrededor de 30 minutos. Empezamos a preguntarnos si nuestro pedido había sido olvidado, especialmente después de ver a dos mesas que llegaron después de nosotros recibir sus comidas antes que nosotros. Además, la pizza de mi hermana apenas estaba caliente, y la mía estaba quemada por los bordes. No hubo problemas con nuestra camarera — ella era cortés y servicial — pero el momento y la calidad de la comida se vieron claramente afectados por los retrasos en la cocina.
