The best restaurants serving Italian food in Elvet County Durham North East

This was the second time that we have visited this fantastic restaurant in a large family group. The first time 9 of us attended for our grandson's 21st birthday and it was so good that we booked again for our annual Christmas get together. This time there were 15 of us. Some chose from the Christmas Fayre menu and the selection was amazing. Others selected from the main menu which was a plus for us as other venues that we have been to for our Christmas 'party' only offered choices from their Christmas Fayre. I have to say that no one was disappointed with their meals. Perfectly cooked and presented and great portions. However, I must commend the service. Nothing was a problem and we were not rushed at all. Some restaurants that we have been to hardly let you get your starter down and they serve you your main course. Not here. A lovely civilised break in between so we could all enjoy being together. That said, the wait wasn't overly long that we were all awaiting our next courses. We had a great night, good food, fantastic service and certainly not over priced. We will all certainly book again, either individually or for our next family celebration. So, if you are looking for a nice meal, either just couples or for a bigger celebration, this is the place for you. Thank you Little Sicily and we look forward to visiting again.

What a lovely place! Great food- lovely pizza and pasta carbonara. Seating is rather close on high stools but this adds to the experience. A little chilly near the door. Excellent staff. Barber shop in lover floor. Great for casual supper or date night! Definitely will visit again.

Really nice restaurant. Great value for money and big portions

I have a chicken vindaloo every time I visit it an Indian restaurant and this was the worst I’ve had in a longtime. It was hard to eat the chicken as it was extremely chewy also there was very little sauce with the curry. This restaurant is very poor and does not live up to its reviews!

Decent food and very reasonably priced and good selection for all courses. Excellent service and a fabulous atmosphere. It was very busy and had a good buzz. Very boujy as my kids would say. We reserved on-line and was all easy.

Excellent food, value and service

We went for lunch today and it’s was so disappointed. We ordered 6 tapas. Only one was hot. 4 were a bit warm. We have to require the paella to be reheated because the rice was completely cold! And it took 10 mins to reheat the paella. Ordered chicken wings and one of them was still with two feathers! The waiter told me it’s supposed to be so. I asked so do you mean your chef never clean and remove the feather from wings? Had no answer. I will never go back to this place again.

Food excellent, it was quiet when we went.

We had a lovley visit for my partners 30th birthday, Lee from Newcastle was very helpful he went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely food and great service. Cakes are delicious and the panini was amazing. Thanks Peter

They obviously don’t have a clue about getting food to you in good time. The manager was rude and dismissive. Don’t go there.
