The best restaurants serving Italian food in West Midlands

Impressed with our first visit to Carisma where five of us shared nachos and a couple of the sharing platters - I also identified some individual tapas for a future visit. Good service and it looked as if there are different eating areas

We went for a friend’s 40th the staff were fantastic made sure we had everything we needed and the food was out of this world will definitely be back

Great place to eat stunning food reasonable prices just wish we’d had room for dessert as the cakes looked delicious but main course so generous

Very good indeed, extremely reasonable, exceptional customer service. Loved the open kitchen, so nice to see! Loved the starter mushrooms, carbonarra was lovely, and steak too. Hubby said creme brullee was really good. So nice to have properly hot plates and properties hot food, thanks, will be back!

What a great evening at the ESC, with the fantastic Tobias Reutt. Tobias is full of passion for food. He spent several years in the Tuscan countryside where he got into zero waste food production. The menu is full of amazing tastes. All veggies are from his allotment garden. Absolutely outstanding experience!

Found this lovely cafe today and we were made very welcome nothing was to much trouble. Sarah was well clued on allergies and my gluten free meal was lovely as the other 3 meals that family had. Talk about going the extra mile Sarah and Scarlet went the extra five miles. What a brilliant team we will visit again 20/10 Phil Val John Wendy

Popped in due to rain. Wow - seriously one of the best Pizzas we have ever had. Simple but flavours were amazing and the staff so helpful. Definitely run and cooked with passion. Highly recommend.

Bad food discurtious staff. I will not be going to that so called restaurant again. The attitude of the staff was terrible and no manners

vistied for a meal for 4. all food served was hot, well prepared and enjoyed, including provision of a pizza box for take home.

The best ice cream I have tasted in UK. Took me 25 and odd years to taste something the real Italian gelato (if not even better). Unfortunately limited choice of flavours for my likening but what we tasted was all amazing. Brits please don't stick to vanilla, chocolate and raspberry. Push your boats. The orange and saffron was delicious. Home made cones is an extra bonus too. Well done. Or should I say: Bravi, mamma mia!

Food was unreal 10/10 recommend

Very tasty Italian lunch with friendly staff and Italian music on the radio. Great coffee. Cannoli da morire! Perfetto!

Visited this morning for a tea and the platter amazing food and service, such a cosy place and a lovely vibe 💯 recommend to this place out.

Mi pizza estaba fría y me preguntaron si quería pedir algo más, pedí mi pizza porque eso es lo que quería, volvió quemada por encima pero no me gustó quejarme de nuevo ya que todo el personal parecía estar mirándome, no me ofrecieron ningún descuento, lo siento no volveré

Lovely independent coffee shop with good coffee and light food options and friendly staff creating a good atmosphere. I've visited here several times over the last few months and had a good experience every time.
