The best restaurants serving Italian food in East of England

Now renamed, refurbished, under new ownership and operating as an Italian restaurant, so we thought we would give it a try for Sunday lunch. Four of us enjoyed an excellent meal. The food was tasty, well-presented, reasonably priced and arrived with little delay. The staff were friendly, accommodating and efficient without being intrusive. Our only suggestions would be - it would be nice if dogs could be allowed in the outside dining area, and please add ice cream to the dessert menu!

Absolutely abysmal! Booked for a Mother's day surprise, didn't get our starters for an hour then had to wait another hour for the main courses and when they did come out they had forgot 2 of the mains both the mothers food! Once it finally did come another 20 minutes later they were both stone cold! Will definitely not be back

The reviews were so good so I expected a lot from The Studio Kitchen. On a positive the food was nice,we went for a build your own breakfast. But the service was not good,our waitress was actually quite rude,we had to wait a good while to keep getting her attention and each time she bought anything she literally slammed it down on the table! Sadly also both the orange juice and iced coffee were really not very nice . Maybe it was an off day as lots of people seem like they have had a lovely experience here .

What a fantastic quaint B&B. The room was comfortable, warm, and had everything we needed. Cups etc were replenished and milk and water was available in a fridge. The owners were lovely very friendly and extremely helpful in organising taxis, food and catering to our every need- including early check in, allergies etc. We really appreciated it. Would definitely stay in this quirky, friendly place again.

We wanted to eat before a show at the Corn Hall and Puccini's was very convenient. We had read a couple of the bad reviews so we where a little concerned about the service and the and quality of the food. However the service was warm and efficient. The food was delicious. Lovely pizzas, and the seafood pasta was a big hit. Four people two courses each, beer and wine. Just under £90! It made a lovely start to our evening. Thank you Puccini's

Delicious food and friendly staff. Pleasant restaurant with nice decor. Would definitely visit again if in town vsiting the area.

Amazing sourdough pesto Parma ham and mozzarella panini lovely Italian cafe. Great service very kind. Definitely my favourite cafe in Cambridge

Excellent food the figs and burrata were perfect, gish kebab beautifully cooked wonderfully delicious dessert .Friendly knowledgeable staff will definitely vist again Martin West

Telling all our friends to go here and will defiantly go again. The staff was a lovely family who were very friendly. The food was excellent, we ordered starters and main and they all came up hot tasty and full of flavour - was so full never had desert but they brought us a free chocolate pudding to share as a nice gesture. Looking forward to returning

One of the best lattes I have ever had!!!! The service wasn’t amazing but I find that with most of the places along the front of Hunstanton. The coffee niceness completely overruled the negative though!

Our dinners were excellent - Sea Bass and Carbenara. The waiter was able to change penne to tagliatelle just helpful and willing. Thank you. Kids margherita and veggie sticks wnt down well so assume were good. The place clearly welcomes the little ones and they were taken well care of whilst we had ours

Staff were lovely, prices were reasonable, venue was good and the food was great! Would highly recommend!

This café was across from previous my work place and I used to go there quite frequently. The food is decent, fresh and very cheap and when it comes to pasta, it definitely beats several of high end Italian restaurants in London. Prefect bite, nice sauces, great flavour and super homey.

I cannot begin to tell you the issues I have had with this restaurant. The service was so slow. The food was awful. Some food was indelible and some didn’t even arrive to the table. The live music did not show up at all. I have been trying to get a response for 4 weeks to no avail. I would urge you not to book here. Still awaiting a call back and now their number is not working. Disappointed even doesn’t come close. Shame as the service from Julie up to the night I couldn’t fault.

This was my first visit here, but my daughter chose it for a birthday celebration as she had been before. The service was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful and while being relaxed and professional. The food was delicious (vegetarian, meat and seafood amongst our choices). I would definitely recommend this restaurant as a smart and pleasant venue in Ware.
