The best restaurants serving Italian food in South East

Been buying from these for years and always been great. Todays was no anywhere near the usual standard, dissappinted!

Went there to celebrate my birthday. It was lovely food and amazing service. Very friendly restaurant and would definitely recommend for local produce.

Great place! Amazing pizza and dough balls with garlic butter. Highly recommended.

I just recently ordered thru uber eats, i literally received the pizza freshly hot. ♨️ fully awed 🤩 the taste was a 5-star! it wasn't dry and with loads of toppings which i was shock as well. id definitely order again with them. 👌🏻 p.s. the guy (one of their staff) who delivered was awesome, great job. 👍🏻

We came late and we were welcomed very warmly. Service and food fantastic. Being italian I was really glad I found this place, highly recommended

Excellent food, which you can tell is made with love! Wonderful service too and a very cosy space. Highly recommend :)

Food was lovely and restaurant was very helpful, phoning Just Eat to prioritise our order after no driver was assigned (after 50 mins). When a driver finally arrived he didn't have the food in a thermal bag!

Great tasty food and was delivered piping hot would definitely order again

DELICIOUS!!!! gluten free pizza one of the best pizzas I've ever had (from a gluten person!!)

On a chilly November evening, we stubbled across a little red door, laughter and clinking of wine glasses could be heard inside. Curiosity got the better of us, and we had to poke our heads in to see for ourselves. Although incredibly busy and with no reservation, the front of house found a table available but only for an hour, this was a nice thing for Positano to do as it placed unnecessary pressure on themselves to have us. The staff were like performers moving through the cozy set up taking care of customers, they couldn't be more diligent and accommodating if they tried. The food was *chefs kiss* the Arancini starter puts the warmth back into your body and makes you feel like the world is a better place for it's existence. Although I am not Italian, if I was the chef special Gnocchi would taste exactly like Nonna used to make it when I was a child, it's that good. The food makes me wish I had been blessed with Italian parents. The restaurant, food, staff and atmosphere is amazing and for a spontaneous look through the door it couldn't have worked out better. Very much looking forward to going again, this time with a reservation so we can enjoy more of the menu.

Food was delicious! Great kid options. We’ll be back! Thanks, Vicky for great service.

Just had a lovely lunch with a dear friend. Very welcoming staff, attentive and courteous. First time here, food amazing. Will definitely return.

Twenty of us had booked up to celebrate our lovely cousin Sarah's Birthday. We all had such a brilliant evening and really enjoyed the food, drinks & service. When we arrived on Sat 30 Nov at 7pm we were all given a warm and friendly welcome and taken to our long table upstairs on the 1st floor. With this large party you would imagine that things would not go quite to plan but overall everything went really well. All our starters were just superb and I especially enjoyed the Gamberettino Prawns cooked in Garlic & Chilli with a White Wine & Tomato Sauce. Be aware that this dish does not come with any bread which is a shame as the sauce is simply superb, so order some as a side before hand. For my main I opted to have The Lasagne al Forno and a side order of chips. After we had all eaten our starters and mains we finished off with a superb Birthday Cake and two rounds of Limoncello. It was a really great evening and the staff were so patient and attentive to us all. Any minor problems during our visit were sorted out very quickly and efficiently ensuring we all had a memorable occasion. Our total bill including the optional 10% service charge was £874:77 which was great value as we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Parking around this area is quite limited so its best to use the Hart Car Park Pay & Display. You maybe lucky to find a spot along West Street but they are normally taken. Most of us had taxi's and they can be located at the end of the evening at the bottom of Castle Street. Have a great visit here.

Highly recommend the arancino, ravioli and the piedmontese chocolate. Great ambience and super good service

What an absolute gem! The food is amazing and the owner and staff are so friendly! They squeezed us in last minute so we could enjoy a meal for my Husband’s birthday and we are so grateful! Great food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff! Also great for dietary requirements, I have a nut allergy and this was no problem atall. Highly recommend!
