The best restaurants serving Italian food in South East

We are lucky enough to live close to Fan Fan Pizza so visit fairly regularly. Fab pizza, fab desserts and love the authentic Italian atmosphere. Well done Fan Fan owners. Can't recommend this restaurant highly enough.

We visited here for a family birthday as it had been highly recommended to us. It did not disappoint, the small, friendly restaurant had a cosy atmosphere, the service was perfect and well what can I say about the food, a fantastic menu also with a wide range of options for vegetarians and vegans as well. Every meal was delicious. We will definitely return and recommend to anyone that knows us.

We moved to Weybridge 3 week’s ago and decided to try La Casa for our wedding anniversary lunch. What an amazing find. The staff are attentive and very friendly, Aurora and her son Raphael are extremely helpful. The food is absolutely amazing!!! And then to top it off they presented us with a Wedding Anniversary desert. We will be back 🥳

Tiene un almuerzo encantador con mi esposo y un amigo aquí hoy. Espere un poco más después de ordenar, pero eso se debió a que la comida estaba recién hecha a pedido. Las albóndigas, las tortitas de pescado y el sándwich eran muy sabrosos y agradables. Precio muy razonable. Buena copa de vino blanco para acompañar nuestras elecciones. Buen servicio pero tristemente tranquilo. Espero que el negocio se recupere pronto. Gracias.

Looking at various food options in Penarth we saw some good reviews for this place. As we got close the smell of what was to come drew me in! I wasn’t disappointed. Excellent pizza, value, friendly service. Will return.

Amazing lunch with my friend, great service and food came out swiftly and was lovely will definitely be back. Highly recommend. Ordered a passion fruit martini and it was delicious.

Excellent food, only let down was other customers or would have been a 5. We arrived for our wedding anniversary and although the restaurant was mainly empty, we were sat next to a very loud table of 8 and another couple. The noise from one particular person was so constant and obnoxious with language, we ate as quickly as possible just so we could leave because we couldn’t actually hear each other or the staff when taking our order. Sadly the other couple who were by us also felt the same. Shame really as we came for the dessert but the language and shrieking from the one customer ruined the evening for us. As we were leaving, the group was then placed in the centre of the restaurant probably to ruin everyone else’s meal too. The food though was outstanding and I can highly recommend it and the staff too who tried to put up with what was happening. The table by us had the desserts we wanted and it looked perfect but the noise was too much.

First time here The atmosphere is very nice ,the people are friendly and the pizzas and desserts are lovely Really enjoyed our evening Thanks alot Will be back

We enjoyed our first visit to La Tavola. A bit tucked away but plenty of parking and great food served by lovely staff Bruschetta and olives followed by seafood risotto and chicken with a mushroom & white wine sauce; lastly a crème brûlée to finish. Presentation was really outstanding, especially the risotto. Drinks are a tiny bit expensive but in line with typical restaurant prices. The room was a bit warm and I didn’t see any aircon but luckily we were seated by a window - worth thinking about in summer months. In summary, a really good family run restaurant which is well worth a visit. NB: approached via outside steps - I’m unsure if there is any disabled access.

I will begin this review by saying that my husband and I had come to Hungerford for lunch to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We had visited our usual establishment (NOT Mio Fiore!) and were sadly let down by the quality of the food and had walked out without eating anything! Suffice to say we were not very happy and felt our day had been spoiled. Looking for another venue for our lunch, we walked past Mio Fiore and took a chance! So onto the review! Service! We were given the warmest welcome ever by a (very beautiful) waitress who was absolutely charming! Nothing was too much trouble and her attention to the smallest detail was just a delight! She very clearly genuinely cared about the customer experience and it shone through! This lovely lady obviously didn't know just how upset we were at having our anniversary lunch plans go so horribly wrong but I would love her to know that, thanks to her, our day was saved by her warmth and her friendly demeanour. Food! Due to the absolute disaster of our attempt at lunch in the previous hostelry, my appetite for food had somewhat waned. We asked if we could share a pizza and were informed of course! We chose a pizza with tomato cheese pepperoni and chilli (apologies forget the name!) and it was absolute gorgeous! The balance of ingredients was judged to perfection and the chilli heat was spot on! The pizza dough was thin, light and crispy and it was honestly the best pizza I have ever eaten! My Husband spotted some cake and asked if we were able to take some away. Yes of course and the cake was beautifully presented in a strong sturdy box and was absolutely delicious! Cleanliness and Décor The serving plates and side plates were of good quality, rustic looking and absolutely in keeping. Everything was immaculately clean and the décor was clean and contemporary. Price /Value for money! we were presented with the bill and my husband had to ask if a mistake had been made as it didn't seem enough! One diet coke (in a very nice glass by the way!) and a "proper" glass coke bottle One large pizza a stunning piece of cake and a 10% service charge £17.55 Would we return? you bet we will! Highly recommend this little gem of a restaurant!

Fantastic authentic Napoli pizza! This was the best pizza we’ve had in Brighton, especially take away. We had a Napoli, Diavola and a mozzarella and garlic pizza. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely be ordering regularly. We have visited Naples many times and this is just what you would get in Napoli.

I have read the reviews on Tripadvisor many times and decided I must visit when the opportunity arises and so this morning we called in for breakfast and have to say it was a most pleaant experience. The staff are lovely and must have a lot of regular customers as many know them by name, the food was very good as was the service and no complaints at all. The place was also very clean as were the tables etc and would certainly be happy to return.

Good for a hearty lunch. Relatively inexpensive, quick and piping hot, great on a wet and cold day. Friendly service also.

What a fantastic restaurant! The food is delicious with a good menu. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The service was timely and friendly. We dined as a group of four and we all enjoyed every mouthful.

Worst visit I’ve ever had! The place was awful unfortunately as it’s such a beautiful building. Rude staff and disgusting cocktails. Not sure if the staff know how to make them properly. Also saw mice traps through the door of the kitchen from where I was sitting
