The best restaurants serving Italian food in West Berkshire South East

Fourth visit and this one just as fabulous as the first three. Food and staff are amazing. open kitchen serving freshly made dishes. Simply brilliant. Thanks all, be back soon.

Great food, lovely staff, quick service

I don’t usually write reviews …. But this place was just so on the mark it’d be cruel not to…..Very cosy place with a buzzing, warm atmosphere. Very kind, friendly staff with service at just the right speed - not so fast you felt so rushed but no so you felt like you were waiting too long. The pizza we had was excellent - I could watch it come out of the oven onto the plate before being served as they have an open kitchen which is always a positive sign. Once with us the food barely touched the sides it was sooo good!! Then there was the gelato……!!

My wife and I were staying in Newbury for a few days last October. Looking for a place the eat nearby our hotel we found this restaurant Valle D'oro. The owners were warm and welcoming, the menu was amazing and the food was sublime! Carmen is so lovely and friendly, food is generous and freshly cooked and nothing is too much trouble. This makes dining a pleasure! So much that we went back the next day, and the next. I myself do not like pasta that much but there is plenty to choose from in the menu. Best restaurant in Newbury by far.

Beautiful food, brilliant location and fantastic staff. Our Nan holds a special place in her heart for the chef who always comes out to say hello to her. The two waitresses are always accommodating and delivery top notch customer service. The food has always been nothing short of amazing! Children love it here too. Will always be our favourite Italian in the area. Must visit in hungerford!

Really good Italian food, a wide variety on the menu. Friendly and efficient service. Prices reasonable.

Lovely food and reasonable prices. The service was a bit slow but the team was busy with the sudden arrival of 18people table.

The food , the service and friendliness is always excellent . I would highly recommend. It’s our favourite restaurant which never disappoints

The pub was brimming and over flowing to the outside with diners when we arrived. I'd heard their roast dinners were good and thought the number of people were a testament to that. Wrong! The roast (?) potatoes weren't all golden and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside but barely cooked and a grey colour which my knife couldn't penetrate. One of the potatoes was actually black. The parsnip was not all soft and squiggy but suffered the same lack of time in the oven, if it ever saw an oven that defied my knife slicing off a piece to taste. The pork dry, and tasteless. I didn't attempt the giant Yorkshire which obviously wasn't homemade instead looked plastic. The cackling burnt. However the side dish of cabbage and carrots and the one piece of cauliflower whilst overcooked was quite tasty hence the 2 stars I think we were perhaps one of the last diners to be served so maybe we drew the short straw. I'm not however game to try again.

Absolutely fantastic little restaurant in Crowthorne. This is a regular place we go for dinner since we discovered it. The food is incredible, absolutely delicious and is always as good. Never a disappointment. We love the lasagne and garlic bread, much better than Don Beni the other Italian in Crowthorne. The price is reasonable and the staff are very kind and courteous. Absolutely must try! Highly recommend

7 keen workers needed a treat so we booked a table for lunch and had the most wonderful, seriously wonderful Pizza's. Everyone was saying it was one of the best pizza's we have ever had. Ice cream and pimms all super. Thanks Team Lusso!

My partner and I came to Amore for a payday treat at the beginning of February at around 18:00. Upon arrival, we were shown to our table promptly. Our table also happened to be next to a radiator which my cold-blooded partner was immensely pleased with. We shared a bottle of prosecco, which arrived mere minutes after we ordered it, soon followed by our starter of olives to share. The prosecco brut was crisp and cold, and the olives made for a delicious accompaniment. No more than 10 minutes later, our main courses arrived - a risotto ai frutti di mare, and a linguine ai gamberoni. Needless to say my partner and I were near speechless with the quality of the food. Fresh pasta, perfectly cooked risotto rice, amazing sauces, large pieces of superbly cooked seafood, all in perfectly sized portions. As a result of the mind-blowing mains, we ordered from the dessert menu - Dolce con amici. This was a sharing board of a selection of desserts, and once again, it was phenomenal. The tiramisu was authentic and rich, the panna cotta perfectly set, amazingly paired vanilla ice-cream, and a pistachio profiterole that was so good, I considered leaving my partner for it, running away to Argentina, and having smaller profiterole children with it. The service speed was lightning, in a warm and inviting restaurant with a sublime ambience. This is a brilliant restaurant, with decent value for money - whilst not cheap, we did not feel hard done by by any means when we received the bill. We will be returning in the future for more.

Food was cold and the salmon so over cooked… so disappointing!!

We have been here a few times and have not been disappointed. This time the service and meals were fine. But I only give 3 stars because the place was extraordinarily noisy. Loud chatter from other diners is to be expected, but adding overly loud music made it impossible to have a normal conversation, so we ate quietly and left without desert.

Popped in to grab some food on our way home. We each ordered a lemon and herb pita. I didn’t catch the gentleman’s name who served us but he was very polite, cheerful and helpful. We did haven’t to wait too long for our food. The pita was fresh, chicken cooked perfectly, with the right amount of slaw and sauce. It was so good we contemplated turning around to get another.
