The best restaurants serving Italian food in North West Leicestershire East Midlands

It's a new business no longer Mio dolci it's the dessert lovers parlour a new owner very clea n with good food rating 4 a great atmosphere great staff great dessert .Worth goi g back

Have been having pizzas from here for a long time. Best pizza place by far! Quick service, fresh every time. Staff are amazing too. Definitely recommend.

Just average, not bad but not good either! Everything is bought in and reheated. Nowhere near as much flavour or as well prepared as 5guys but more expensive.

might be the best breakfast i’ve ever had in the uk, came here multiple times with my gf when we lived in ashby and still come up occasionally as it’s so good and also so cheap, milkshakes are great too

The best pizza in our area!! Unlike alot of the "pizzeria's" who use almost silicone type cheese , this place uses proper ingredients!! The only place ide order a pizza from!! A true authentic taste! The pasta is amazing, the pizza's are amazing , again a true authentic taste , would highly reccomend to anyone! Not to mention there prices are very reasonable unlike dominoes that charge ridiculous prices just for the name yet lack in taste!

Came with my wife, 2 babies and a dog and staff could not have been more welcoming and lovely. Food was fabulous, garlic prawn starters were exceptional.

Family visit again. No surprises, just great food and excellent service at a very good price. As always the atmosphere was good.

Dolce Cafe may not serve Italian fare, but it's a charming spot with a varied menu, and a variety of tempting cakes. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are friendly. If you have a sweet tooth and enjoy a relaxed cafe setting, this place is worth a visit.

We have visited San Giovanni on a few occasions & always had a great meal. Unfortunately on this occasion my partners lobster was served stone cold, as was my starter. We fed this back to the waiter who offered to reheat the lobster, when they returned the lobster was still cold. The manager (George I believe) then visited our table, explained that we were wrong & that it is not possible for lobster to be warm unless it is in a sauce. We tried to explain that we have had other positive experiences in the restaurant but he refused to offer us any other food. We returned to the bar whilst we waited for a taxi but George advised the bar staff to refuse of service. We then had to stand in the cold for 15 minutes whilst we awaited our taxi. All restaurants get it wrong some times & all we wanted was an apology & admittance that on this occasion they had got it wrong, especially considering they were 30 minutes late getting us seated. Instead we were humiliated & sent home hungry & cold. I would still recommend that people visit the restaurant as we have had many good meals but do not challenge the staff if there are concerns as you may be subject to the same treatment we received. A real shame, I wish management would have just listened to our feedback

I went with some friends for a birthday meal, service was really attentive and food was great also!! will defiantly be coming back, a shoutout to Amber who made our nice special with a free press eco!!💞

I visited the restaurant on Saturday 25th Feb as part of a large group (50+people). Now I understand that 50 people arriving at the same time is a bit of a nightmare but, as I understand it, Marco was given all of our menu choices in advance. Anyway, we arrived at 7pm and received our starter at 8.20pm. This wasn't a huge issue as we were enjoying the company of our friends, however as the night went on it meant that some had finished their meals and others hadn't even had their mains, some never got them and left. The waitresses did their best to calm the waters and generally the mood was OK despite the obvious problems. The food when it did arrive was acceptable, but I had expected slightly better than acceptable to be honest. We asked for parmesan and was told there wasnt any tonight. Some on our table didn't eat their mains as they said it was bland and left before their deserts. As I say, I get 50 people is a bit of a logistical nightmare but surely the restaurant should have been prepared for that? All in all I would advise not to visit if you're in a large group.

We booked here for valentine day. I didn’t realize is was Marco Pierre white’s restaurant till we arrived. We live in Manchester and was visiting our daughter who is at uni. Was extremely excited when I realized x greeted by a really nice lady. We decided on the valentines sharing platter surf and turf. Bottle of wine arrived the waiter didn’t even let us taste it. Just pored it! Food arrived and the waitress just put the sharing platter in front of my partner which I then had to move myself to allow plates to go on the table. Food was just nice nothing mind blowing. Desert I had the Tiramisu which fortunately was gone in two mouth fulls extremely disappointing. Overall this restaurant is very average with no atmosphere what so ever and staff need re training. Save your money there are nicer local restaurants in the area x

Always pop in before we fly , however this time the food was awful .. burger cold and chips over done , food sat a long time on the counter before it was bought to the table , women on the table behind us were pouring wine in drink bottles to take on the plane while the member of staff laughed talking about it .. disgraceful
