The best restaurants serving Italian food in Reading South East

Great service and food! Highly recommend

One of the best restaurants in Reading. Delicious food and top-class service

Vegivores is a lovely versatile restaurant [and make great birthday cakes to order] - and not just for vegans. I've lived in the area for nearly 5 years and I've turned up my nose at vegivores for over 3 of them. The menu didn't look exiting to me as a happy meat eater. Love my steaks, burgers etc. Then, January 2024, we did Veganuary, so we tried them. And regret hit me. Why did we not try it sooner? Why did I think it wouldn't be good when every weekend it is packed? This restaurant is fantastic. Every dish is nice. We know this, because we tried pretty much every dish on the menu since. And it's healthy. This is not vegan junk food full of processed nasties and fake meats. It's vegan wholefood plant based. We all love it, including my children [10 & 15 now]. My 10 year old loves the 'boss' bowl'. My 15 year old loves the drunken tofu knots and the burrito. My favourite is the Hey Maccarito [+ jalapenos]! which is a burrito with their mac and cheese filling instead of rice. Their gnocchi are amazing and so are all their salads. You choose where you want to be on the scale of indulgent to A+ for health. There's affordable good vegetable sides [the broccoli or the medley] to mix it up. After Veganuary, we stayed vegan and so we frequent this place fortnightly on average. Either by eating in, or by getting take out [Hey Maccarito for me...]. We go there with plenty of non-vegans who really rate the food, but given meat is not a distant memory to me and I used to *really* enjoy my meat, I think I'm a fairly good judge. This year, we started ordering birthday cakes and once you start, everyone wants one for their birthday. The pic is a biscoff cake. It's a large cake so that served probably...12-18 It's my turn next and I can't wait to discuss my 'requirements' with them and see how they surprise me.

Da en el blanco en todas las áreas - comida, ambiente, autenticidad, limpieza, servicio, etc. Éramos una familia de 5 con 3 niños mayores y un veredicto unánime de “excelente”, fue la opinión, al igual que las otras 243 “excelentes” críticas en Tripadvisor en el momento de la revisión. ¡Sigan trabajando bien, volveremos!

Todo aquí se veía increíble y volveré por una pinsa y un poco de queso. Tomé una copa de vino preciosa hoy mientras veía el mundo pasar. Personal muy amable y bien informado

Really good Italian food. Authentic traditional tasty cucina italiana

Llegamos a las 9:30 y nos dijeron que habían dejado de servir a pesar de que cerraron a las 11. 30 . Totalmente inaceptable.

This is by far my favorite dessert spot! Zeeshan, who served us, was an excellent host; friendly, attentive, and great at recommending and explaining the new menu. I went with my all-time favorite, the chocolate brownie indulgence with soft-serve ice cream, and it did not disappoint. A perfect 10/10, as always!

Food was pretty decent, however we got sent the wrong dessert (normal brownie instead of limited edition) and when the bill came there were 5 desserts on there instead of 2. We still got asked if we wanted to leave a tip

Had a wonderful meal and service thanks to Tracy!

Enjoyed my vegan Caramelised Biscuit cheesecake and long black. Will go back.

Absolutely brilliant service when the wrong pizza was brought over they changed it very quickly (JACOB) Who is our waiter Very polite!!! Then a young lady called Tilly was also very polite and came and told us that all the shops and restaurants are getting shut down This place is very good at hiring staff

Can get a little busy on main shopping days and is on occasion, difficult to get a seat. That said, the coffee and atmosphere are great and the location is just about perfect.

The food was absolutely delicious, and Sofia provided exceptional service.

We was missing some food... 1 Sausage & Pancetta Ragu with Rigatoni Grande for £10.15
