The best restaurants serving Italian food in East of England

Lovely, lively village pub, good beer! What's not to like!! Great food, too 😋

Leaving my first ever online review because everything about the meal I just had here was awesome. I ordered just a main course of the mixed seafood and it was honestly one of the most delicious meals I've ever had, every element cooked to perfection and so tasty. Also recieved complimentary bread and dips to start, and again, these were just so good! Granted, I was very tired and hungry which may have made me extra specially grateful for a great meal, but the service was so good, I felt so welcome, was served so promptly, the overall experience has totally made my week!

Gino and his staff were excellent, the food delicious

This was my third lunch with friends at Ask Italian in Ipswich in 2024. Every time the service has been excellent - staff were attentive, but we didn't feel rushed. The food was lovely. The summer special £27.50 for 3 courses was particularly good value. An easy walk from the station and parking in front of the restaurant.

I don’t know why this restaurant has ratings this high. We were excited to go to a real Italian restaurant but it turned out it wasn’t. We ordered burrata and focaccia for starters. The burrata was NOT burrata, it was Mozarella. The focaccia was thin pizza dough with herbs on it. Really thin. The pizza was doughey, and my partner ordered a mushroom pasta which looked like a Tesco meal deal dish. The waiters were nice and atmosphere was good, but I can’t give any more than 3 stars.

great food and drink and service from Grace

Excellent value for money and so tasty too

Amazing restaurant, great food, fab staff for whom nothing is too much trouble

A hidden delight, authentic Italian food with lovely staff.

Although a Tuscan deli it is definitely English in terms of tea and cake. Yorkshire Tea with great homemade cakes including a lovely gluten free Polenta for the Coeliac. Then some lovely gluten free Italian biscuits which we don't normally see . Very friendly and came round with treats for all dogs at the tables.

Really good Pizza! Family Shared the 22” - it was “wow!” huge and really tasty.

This cafe is lovely and also serves Red Velvet cake, my favorite. Nice atmosphere and enough space, just perfect for a little break between shopping.

Really great time at Cosmo's Norwich. From the second we walked in everyone was so friendly and welcoming, food was really high quality l, much better than we expected from a buffet! and the atmosphere was lovely. We will definitely be back.

Popped in for lunch. We were served by Laurence who was great. Very polite, friendly and helpful. Food was excellent; tasty, hot and prompt.

been looking for a good ramen place in cambs but this place isn't it. I've had japanese instant ramen that tasted better. soggy noodles, cold bamboo shoots, just a few things i could list off my head.
