The best restaurants serving Italian food in East Northamptonshire East Midlands

Fabulous place. Nicely decorated and the food was just amazing. On top of all that, the staff were friendly and helpful. Can't say enough good things about this place. Wished we lived nearer Tewkesbury!

Friendly staff, lovely food and very reasonably priced 🙌🏼

We came here Friday evening. A lovely restaurant with only about 8 tables, always a good sign that you are going to be looked after and that your meal will not be rushed. I unfortunately found it absolutely freezing inside. Even with me wrapping my legs in my scarf, I was very uncomfortable in there. We had the special appetiser of pheasant terrine with rhubarb chutney, rocket, and pine nuts, which was to die for!! The second appetiser we had was the baked smoked mozzarella. We both really disliked this. It was essentially a croque monsieur with a thick slab of hard mozzarella and bread that you couldn’t cut into. For main my partner had the lobster ravioli. About five large pieces stuffed with meat! He loved it. I had the three tomato pasta which I enjoyed, except that it came out topped with cheese and it was more cheese than I personally would have had on it. I found that a little overpowering. But the pasta and the sauce was delicious. For dessert I had an affogato. I was a little disappointed that I couldn’t have a standard coffee and ice cream affogato and that I had to add an alcohol to it which made it taste less enjoyable to me. My partner had the ice cream which came with pistachio fondant which turned out to be a pie essentially filled with pistachio sauce which was so so good. I had definite food envy with that one! The Sartarelli Tralivio wine went down perfectly with the meal. Service was good except they didn’t provide us with knives for our main meal. So we were cutting our food with the sides of our forks. Our server was Eastern European and although she was lovely, we found it very difficult to understand her a lot of the time, which made ordering and asking questions about the food quite difficult.

We had a lovely meal here for my birthday. The food is delicious and the venue is so warm and inviting. We will be back!

Every dish we had so far are the best! All fresh and full of flavour. Staff are friendly and make sure your glasses are never empty. Great value for money and the atmosphere is lovely and cosy.

This is the second time that we had to wait 45+ mins for food to arrive. As much as we love pizza express we won’t be returning and would visit other restaurants at Rushden!

Came here for lunch with my mum. Had the lunch time set menu which was great. But what really made the experience was the service from Gosia. Amazing from start to finish, nothing felt like too much trouble. She was truly incredible.
