The best restaurants serving Italian food in South East

Este es un fantástico restaurante italiano. El servicio es brillante, entusiasta y rápido. La comida es absolutamente increíble. Sabroso y auténtico. Estábamos buscando un lugar con buenas opciones de mariscos y esto se ajusta a la ley. El ravioli de langosta y cangrejo es increíble, al igual que el cebo blanco.

We had two outstanding curry meals - pave steak and pork/prawn both with copious tiffin accompaniments - absolutely delicious - paired with ice cold rose and super friendly service Book, go and enjoy..!

Very good food, excellent customer service. Authentic italian food, whilst having a small cosy family run feeling.

We had a brilliant meal. Quality & service were fantastic !! Jessica was great !! The food was tremendous & we would recommend this restaurant 100%

We have been wanting to try this place for so long but first came the lockdowns and we always left it too late and it was booked up. Finally we booked ahead and got a table on a Saturday night for 2 of us.It was so worth the wait - this is a tiny treasure in Margate. The atmosphere was lovely - romantic and intimate, despite 3 other bigger parties on tables around us. wonderful music playing, delicious smells coming from the kitchen - we truly felt like we had been transported to Italy! And the food - simple, beautiful, incredibly tasty, fresh, authentic flavours. You could really tell everything was made with love. Every dish was perfect and bursting with flavour. The portions were good and both my meat loving partner and my vegan self, felt satisfied and happy. Really wonderful staff - just 3 of them, the owner and chef, the kitchen asssitant and the front of house but they worked together seamlessly. How they manage to do all this and so well, in a tiny space, whilst creating a relaxed, happy and warm atmosphere, is a true to credit to all of them. Many other bigger, higher staffed local restaurants could learn a thing or two from visiting Olivio! We can't wait to come back - a true treasure!

A finger licking experience! Food is absolutely delicious and you can tell it’s made from fresh. Service is fantastic. Will definitely go back and would recommend it if you’re in the area. You might want to book first… 😉

Esta es una pizzería encantadora. Las pizzas estaban deliciosas. El servicio fue amable. Muchos italianos también comen allí, lo que demuestra que es auténtico.

El mejor helado de la historia. Hermosa tienda y gran personal. Vivo al norte de Oxford así que ve a esta tienda tan a menudo como sea posible. También es bueno comprar algunos regalos.

Shhhhh! Best kept secret in Lancing. Probs the best Italian in Worthing area. Never had a bad meal, authentic Napoli Resturant.

This is our second time to Lago. Generally we have always enjoyed our meals there. The restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere and thr staff are attentive. The title reflects what our thoughts are on our visit yesterday. We all had 3 courses with 2 bottles of wine, a beer and 2 bottles water. One of the main dishes a veal chop was very tough and it was pointed out to us it had been asked for as well done and that causes it to be tough. I think it the was manager who came overand explained that. He was polite to be fair to him. My point is, Im in my 60’s and have been to many restaurants and had a few cuts of meat in my days at various establishments and at home. I must point out that it wasn’t my dish that was the issue here. It was my mother in law’s, she always has her meat well done. Anyway i tried her dish just in case she was being overly fussy or wrong (now that’s a dicey road to go down!) It was tough and it wasn’t cooked well done as requested more like medium. The point is we have all had dishes in restaurants and cooked by ourselves in the past well done and meats generally have been fine, you can be unlucky as it was in this instance. We weren’t looking for a refund on dish my mother in law had eaten some of it and gave up. To be told it was our issue no matter how politely delivered is not the best way to deal with a customer’s concern. Our final bill was £324 for four people maybe a little bit of kindness in dealing with our concern should have been thought of. Otherwise the food was as expected.

What a treat! Pizza to die for!! Great selection, prepped and cooked in front of your eyes in an impressive wood fired oven. Fully licenced. Would definitely recommend and will certainly be going again. Bravo!

Best local pizza outside of New York! Always very friendly and accommodating. Definitely worth a visit or two or three!
