The best restaurants serving Italian food in South East

A warm, friendly Italian restaurant with a superb ambience. Brilliant food, great service and friendly staff. So much so that for the two days we’re visiting Eastbourne we’re going back the second night. What a shame it’s not our local!

We were visiting Windsor Castle with a bus tour and had limited time for lunch prior to leaving. We decided to eat here and ordered a Banana Nutella Crepe, which was very good.

Mama's Way provided catering for a party at our home in May. We asked for a vegetarian menu, which they delivered and helped set up to serve. The food was wonderful, with compliments from our guests, including Italians. We have had good takeaways from them, but this food exceeded our expectations. We will use them again!

It was a lovely meal. We had chorizo and chicken skewers for starters and salads with three toppings of our choose and grief chicken thigh dish with salad, fries and vegetable. Everything was delicious and yes you had to wait a bit for a food to be served but it's been done from scratch so it takes a time. Worth waiting for. I wanted to mention a lovely staff too, Plum and Luis and Amazing Julia who was helping preparing food and Fabbio ofcourse. All of you went extra mile to make our meal special. Thank you so much. We will be back soon xx

The food was amazing no doubt but the service was awful! The waitress took the drinks order and came back twice and still needed to check. I waited a further 15 minutes for my drink. We then waited almost 30 minutes for the staff to come back and take our order. We were told that there was no pita bread, my frown ordered a diet lemonade only to be told later it wasn’t diet after drinking. The margarita had something fizzy in and didn’t taste like a margarita, but having waited ages for. Like I said the food was lovely. We were still eating our starters when they bright the mains out but the table hadn’t been cleared so had to fumble around to make room. Then had to wait for new cutlery. We wanted to order coffees at the end it to be told that there was none. The waiter brought over Tequila shots as an apology for the coffee but there was no lime or salt to go with the shots. Again the food in general was amazing but there was a huge lack of organisation.No loo roll in the loo and it wasn’t busy so we didn’t really get why the service was long it was.

You could not get a better Italian restaurant. The welcome is immense, the staff are friendly and professional and very family orientated. If you love authentic Italian food then this place is definitely for you, I cannot rate it high enough. They cater for all food types, carnivores, pasta lovers, pizza lovers, pescatarians, vegetarians and vegans. All the food is excellent, I would personally recommend any of the pasta dishes and my wife loves the swordfish. Oh and if you have the chance to try a cheesecake special, i promise you, you will never have tasted a lighter fluffier cheesecake in your life. Go there, you will not be disappointed...

Found this little cute spot in windsor. I had the chicken panini (halal) which was soo yummy and was complimented with some salad. Maradona (staff) is such a lovey lady, very welcoming place to eat and the outoor/indoor atmosphere is very nice.

I am new to the area and trying out all the local places and this did definitely not disappoint. Attended with friends for a warm welcome, good food, and a good happy atmosphere. What more can you want!

Excellent pizzas at Freshwater Bay, eaten by the Travelling Tavern on a sunny evening. Difficult to beat! Great price too. Highly recommended.

Stopped for a snack and coffee. Staff helpful but food offering limited in the "to go" section. Sandwiches not to my liking so just had a coffee, wife and son had a sandwich which was okay and for such a location reasonably priced. There is a restaurant attached but does not allow dogs. If they did allow dogs instead of the £21 spent would have happily and easily spent over £50. I appreciate that company/council policy's make the no dogs policy but I would suggest that the area outside between the patio doors and barrier have ample space for 4 or 5 tables and would prove your turnover.

We have visited Roots on a regular basis since we moved to Horsell three and a half years ago. We have always had excellent food and service, so we were sorry to discover that they are closing due to a huge increase in rates. We shall miss our visits and the delicious food.

The welcome was first rate. I’m guessing that there was a little problem with staff communication. The young lady who served our drinks was struggling, as some of our party had to wait some time. The food came out at roughly the same time. We were a party of 21. Food. The mixed grill. You couldn’t fault the amount of mixed meats. Lamb and beef, I asked for rare and was told that it couldn’t be done as the meats were cooked in a “package”. The meats came out universally “well done. It seemed to me that they were fairly new to the business and training new staff at the same time. My wife and I, intending returning as a couple next year. Given the amount of effort they’re putting in, I hope they succeed.

Fabulous service. Dog friendly. Good food AND Ginger beer!!! We had an excellent meal hereon our journey towards Brighton. Made very welcome.. including our dog.

I was very pleased with my meal at pitchers on the 25/09/2018. I had Ribeye steak cooked medium rare, it was tender with lots of flavour. I had a side portion of chips and salad with Mayo and ketchup. The food is very well priced and would recommend for anyone wanting to try out something new try pitchers. The staff are welcoming.

I spent hundreds of pounds in this overpriced cafe and then I got baited into an autism meltdown by the bullies from the mental health place next door who I had argued with over politics, then a Certain Person influenced his mate the cafe manager to ban me and of course I was never told I was banned and the next day I got the police called on me like a criminal. Lovely. If my friend hadn't been there to defuse things with the unpleasantly aggressive policeman it would have been very nasty indeed. I never swore like That Person said on the cafe property. The said person who has a grudge against me for standing up to his bullying got me banned on purpose as he is mates with the manager. My only crime is being very upset and hurt by being bullied and being autistic and very vulnerable. Did you guys not hear how I was sobbing in the toilet that day? Sorry to be a vulnerable bullied traumatised autist but you ban me like a criminal by all means. Would have appreciated being actually told so I didn't get the police called on me I mean wtf I now am even more isolated from my friends. Stupid cafe is horribly overpriced anyway. I have been in the park loads of time and sat near the cafe and I've caused no trouble nor would I ever! I am not a bad person and I didn't deserve to be banned! I was coming in for nearly two years and I never got upset until those bullies provoked me to try and defend myself in my incomptent kak handed autistic way. You and they have done me a very great injustice.
