The best restaurants serving Italian food in Mancroft Norwich East of England

Visited yesterday after England v Denmark. We ordered burger and pizza ( extra olives ), prepared before our eyes, brilliant customer service, both burger and pizza were delicious, cannot recommend highly enough, you must visit!

Great newly opened breakfast and lunch venue , excellent breakfast, brilliant lunch and sandwiches, freshly made coffee , clean and well renovated and above all friendly, happy staff . Absolutely really nice place.

My first visit today was recommended by the people at Saporita and tried the caramelised fig and marscapone ice cream which was delicious. I had my eye on the Blood Orange will have to come again!

Amazing pizza, authentic Italian ingredient, and the warmest service you'll probably ever get. If you haven't been, go now

Fabulous meal and the waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu. Would definitely recommend.

Got the pizza delivered to The Garnet Pub nect door, genuinely delicious, pizza base was very good. Had pepperoni and carbonara

Visited with my partner for my birthday. Warm, cosy, authentic atmosphere. Great service and a pleasant, attentive waitress. Food got the thumbs up from my Italian girlfriend which is a good sign and was wholesome and delicious with good portions. Would recommend the Gamberetti arrabbiata (from the specials list).

Have been a few times when in the city. Superb Pizza, and tremendous Pasta. Great authentic Italian Food. Small and informal dining.

Lovely little Italian in the city - nice atmosphere, good service and excellent menu . Food is light and sauces skilfully made : not heavy and very well flavoured . Desserts were also excellent- the cheesecake and the profiteroles get a special mention. All round a great experience for a small family meal and will definitely return .

Not sure why this restaurant has good reviews. Starters were good but it was just prawns. No one enjoyed the main courses. My main was inedible, it was octopus and it was so tough, you couldn’t chew or swallow it. Sent it back but it was the same the second time. So I had no main course and ate what my partner left. The seafood in his was very over cooked, I would think it had been reheated. They seemed to have people in reviewing the food. There were a few tables they were making a fuss over and we were neglected and service was slow. The only redeeming thing, was the cocktails were good but food and service were bad.

Belated birthday meal and restaurant had just reopened after having refurbishment… the food, service and ambiance as always was amazing so thank you… only one thing which I think is wrong and children if they are big in height for their age I.E 10… has to pay adult price… not quite sure if this is even legal?? 😊

Once again an excellent meal. Service is impeccable and food freshly cooked food. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Fantastic food and brilliant waitress called Sharon

We were wandering around Norwich looking for somewhere to eat on a freezing cold evening and came across Pinocchio’s. Service was very good and the risotto was the best I’ve ever tasted. I struggle to understand why there are so many negative reviews for this excellent restaurant. Would definitely go there again.

Have just had lunch with husband and daughter in law and granddaughter, it was lovely, not too busy. The food was very good, in fact my granddaughter chips where so hot that she had to wait until she had finished her pizza before she could eat them. The person serving us was very helpful and pleasant and chatted to my granddaughter, grace who is 2 nearly 3. Overall a lovely experience and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.
