The best restaurants serving Italian food in Solihull West Midlands

I was enjoying the company of some friends from India that surprised me with a couple of vegetarian dishes ordered through Directfromchef.com. I follow a mostly plant based diet and sometimes is difficult to find good take-away dishes that are healty without forgoing taste. Well, I must say that the chickpeas were prepared in a very flavourful manner and the lentils, ohh those lentils deserve a special mention as I've never tried such an awesome combination of creaminess and spice. One of the best lentils recipes I've ever tried !!!!

I had the chicken souvlaki skewers which were lovely, very tasty. The pitta looked homemade and the salad dressing was good too. Only downside is the stairs (out the front and inside) and lack of baby changing facilities, however it looks like a listed building so not something they are likely to be able to change. Not suitable for disabled guests or those with babies. However the staff were friendly and helped us carry the pushchair upstairs which was kind

The best restaurant for the food, the courtesy of the staff. You are wonderful

Eros is totally unique, an olde worlde building with 2 small staircases leading up, old beams & uneven floors, absolutely beautiful. We had Romeo & Juliet Prosecco whilst we perused the menu, which took a little while as we couldn't decide because everything sounded lovely. In the end, we chose whitebait & feta parcel, kleftico & duck breast, all of which were beautifully presented, generous & delicious. We shared the orange pie as we were full but couldn't resist the dessert as it sounded gorgeous. The service was also very good. I would definitely recommend Eros & look forward to returning. Thank you.

I came with my friends and all of us loved the food. The dough was gorgeous with lots of choice of toppings. We couldn’t resist ordering the pizza puddings afterwards and got the biscoff and Nutella pizza’s to share. Absolutely would recommend to anyone looking for a good pizza made properly!

One of my favourite places, amazing food, atmosphere and service. Love the care of the owner ..

Not sure what's going on with this restaurant.... In the past it has generally always been very good but afraid we will not be using or recommending it to anyone in the future. Like some other reviews, we made a reservation well in advance for two people for a Saturday night. Turned up at the time booked only to find the place closed. No sign up to say why they may be closed and unable to get any reply from them when you tried to phone, not even a recorded message. They had my mobile but did not even have the courtesy to phone to say they would not be open. We were not the only people on that night to be somewhat surprised. As we arrived, a party of four also arrived to be greeted with the same frustration... Even if they were to change the way they ran their restaurant, they don't deserve the business if they treat their customers in this way. No guarantee of a booking or them even being open would be my worry! There are plenty more good eating places in Knowle - avoid this one and try one of the others.

Went there for my birthday dinner a few weeks ago and was again being impressed by the delicious food they offer. Special thanks to our host Silvia, who was very kind and helpful.

Cuando entré me sorprendió la decoración y la forma en que se veía, simplemente increíble y colorido y brillante. Nos sentamos en nuestra mesa y nos dieron tiempo para pedir bebidas, cuando llegaron las bebidas nos dieron unas patatas fritas giratorias, que era agradable. Pedimos comida, un entrante y un plato principal. Cuando vi que se comenzaba a cocinar (estaba frente a la cocina) pensé que los principales looks de alguien eran encantadores. ¡No, eso no era un tema principal, era mi entrante! Wow! El entrante de mi esposo era igual de grande, pero ambos platos eran lo suficientemente ligeros como para que no se sintiera lleno antes de su principal. ¡La red era increíble! El chef en ese día pensó que su juego A porque los sabores eran hermosos, bien presentados y simplemente wow! Sé que sigo diciendo “wow” pero si lo es es! No puedo esperar a volver aquí y probar algo diferente con mi marido. Gracias por hacer nuestro almuerzo increíble!

Me and my patenter came in last Friday as a friend recommended. Did not disappoint I could honestly say it was the best pasta dish I have ever eaten! We will be retuning frequently. Waitress was also very polite and friendly ☺️

What a wonderful Italian afternoon tea with champagne! We were greeted by a lovely young waiter who showed us to our table which was laid out ready for us with a crystal water decanter and matching glasses, beautiful yellow and white teacups, saucers and side plates, the cutlery was a good quality and all matching. The champagne cork popped, and we were served with a glass each of crisp dry champagne....no Prosecco here, this was the real stuff! The menu was explained to us and the food was freshly made and absolutely delicious, just so different to the usual sandwiches that you get with an afternoon tea. We each received our own teapot of hot tea. The cakes were all so different and bite size and filled with chocolate or custard plus there was scones, jam and cream of course. The service was outstanding, and it was so nice to have the same young man looking after us for the whole experience, his manners were impeccable, and he is a credit to the restaurant.

Eaten here for a few years now and always had great service and delicious food! Tonight was no exception with excellent service from Patricia who spread some festive cheer!

My daughter and I recently dined at pizza express Solihull branch. We ordered a vegetarian pizza along with a couple of sides and drinks. When I initially took a first bite I smelt a meaty smell from the pizza so I had to stop myself and take a second look at the slice to make sure that it was actually a vegetarian pizza we were given, there was no signs of any meat in the pizza so I continued….it wasn’t until my daughter mentioned that she could also smell and taste something she described as a Smokey meaty smell and an off taste that we carefully inspected the pizza. We were both appalled upon realising that it seemed like there had been cross contamination in the process of preparing our pizza as the smell from the entire pizza was very meaty. We notified a staff member and the manager, they both denied any cross contamination had occurred. Although the manger took off the pizza from our bill, he was being rather rude about the situation. my daughter and I left the place feeling sick to our stomachs as we are vegetarian and Muslim. I would advise any vegetarian or Muslims to never eat at a place like this.

Prezzo and managers Can't stand cheap food over priced for everything I will be not going to any other Prezzo in my life hope they all shut down! Can't call it a restaurant! I will be happy to leave you no star

The manager here is very rude indeed and has no people skills , avoid at all cost , there website doesn't clearly state to download blue light voucher and just to show up with card which is what we did but manager ( afro caibean/African guy ) was adamant to show voucher, when I showed him the info we read on the website he backed down but never said sorry , also instead of coming and talking to us privately he walked down the Isle towards our table and in front of everyone shouted "what's the problem "
