The best restaurants serving Italian food in Chesterfield East Midlands

Always reliable for good food and service. A go to when I am visiting Chesterfield.

The Fab in FabRico is true. Cappuccino so much nicer than large chain coffee shops. Fab decor, cakes looked fab and a fantastic little room for a quiet chat at the rear of cafe.

The restaurant was well lit and nicely presented from the outside. Unfortunately not welcomed much since it was a busy night. We had to shuffle through the madness and await seating which is fine. We was placed right near the pizza oven which was nice to see freshly baked pizza, but unfortunately VERY cold! Like I was in Italian Alps and not a restaurant. We did not get asked about drinks or food for 22 minutes. We did indicate that my wife was gluten free but somehow she did not alert us that the chocolate fondant was NOT gluten free luckily my wife questioned it. Therefore the female chef doing Pizzas had intervened and offered chocolate brownie. The starters was amazing and truly felt authentic taste with great flavours. The mains were beautiful with lovely sauce. The desserts were gorgeous with such chocolate aura, it was nice and rich, with ice cream to smooth it down. The food without a doubt is super tasty without a doubt. Alot of the service needed we had to call out which makes it difficult in busy days. Simple things like we asked for water so they gave a jug but no glasses, when I wanted to pay the bill, I wanted to pay by card and I asked do I need to go to the bar or pay where I am. I was asked it can be brought to me if I wanted. As a restaurant just needs a little thought of let's make the customers comfortable and just bring the card machine to them. I know service charge is optional but you feel bad for staff working hard to deny them. The toilets were colder than the restaurant but let's see. I will becoming back to see what the food tastes like again.

Friendly staff. Huge portions. Great value for money and very tasty.

Mist delicious breakfast staff incredible will be going again soon for evening meal can't wait always a treat so welcoming and warm

All star chicken footlong was horrible, the chicken tasted like wet cotton wool. My nacho chicken bites were missed off the order too

Ordered Cappuccino and sausage roll. They asked if I wanted it warm. Yes please. It to so long to come the coffee was cols as was the sausage rill which had never been heated. I took th a back. They returned 5 mins later with a sarcastic "enjoy". The roll had beec cut into 3. each piece was lukewarm on the outside AND COLD in the middle. TERRIBLE ATTITUDE FROM STAFF. TOLD THEM TO CHUCK IT IN THE BIN. WORST MONEY I HAVE EVER SPENT. AVOID

Used to love coming here , we have come with the grandchildren for their lessons for 4 years . From last week we have a young female staff member , now know she is the team leader , who was constantly eating and never washed her hands before serving customers with food . Then we had a male ( mature) who was picking his nose handling the ice creams then putting cakes out and taking bread out of packets . Never washed his hands ! Sorry but now refusing to purchase any food or drink as hygiene rating certainly doesn’t reflect the cleanliness or any food hygiene certificate these two staff members have . There is only one young man who seems to take hygiene and keeping the place clean and tidy seriously .

Myself and my wife went here today , no low tables for wheelchairs , we went inside and was asked what we wanted and then i had to go outside to a window to pay , no idea why because i was outside and the guy holding the payment device was inside. Sign on door said hot ( it was luke warm ) drinks. I ordered a breakfast , 3 soggy slices of toast , 2 small sausages , a tiny portion of mushrooms and beans , 1 burnt piece of bacon , 1 burnt egg , no tomato or black pudding , and this was supposed to be a big breakfast. My wife only had a bacon sandwich and it was burnt and rock hard. If i had seen the food before i paid for it i would have walked out without touching it. I spent the rest of the afternoon chewing indigestion tablets , maybe thats why their is only 2 other reviews on here
