The best restaurants serving Italian food in Stratford-on-Avon West Midlands

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.

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.

Great food, simple fresh ingredients cooked properly by folks that care. What a gem of a place, £8 for a pizza and £5 for a cheesy garlic bread. I'm never ordering franchise pizza again. A true treat.

We’d been to Sorrento 4 years before, while on holiday and really enjoyed it then. So we decided to return in the hope it was just as good. It was as good, if not better. We had mozzarella, steak, veal, tiramisu and profiteroles. The food was absolutely delicious and my steak was perfect. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was lovely. We will return and hopefully not wait another 4 years. Highly recommended and we’d just spent the previous two weeks in Rome! 😀

Este es un maravilloso establecimiento italiano semi independiente. Visité con algunos colegas de trabajo y tanto el servicio como la comida estaban mucho más allá de lo esperado. La comida era excelente, a pesar de que "simplemente" tenía una pizza era mucho más de lo esperado. Era ligero y lleno de sabores - mucho más allá de algunos otros lugares de pizza que he frecuentado. La señora que nos dio la bienvenida y nos sirvió fue refrescantemente agradable y no podía hacer lo suficiente para cuidar de nosotros y garantizar que nuestra noche fuera lo mejor que podía ser. Si estás en Stratford, hazte un favor y prueba este nuevo lugar, no te decepcionará

Delicious food and very friendly staff! We had a fantastic time celebrating our friend’s birthday and thank you so much to the staff who made it even more special. We will visit again when we are next in Stratford!

Acabo de tomar un increíble chocolate caliente italiano. Espeso y cremoso hasta la última boca llena. Este es un pequeño gran lugar con un montón de ambiente.

Service was excellent. Good variety of starters and mains. Food was piping hot and delicious. Nice atmosphere. Would definitely return

We had a wonderful evening here on Sunday 8th December 2024. We loved the quirky decor upstairs, the pizzas were excellent and the staff were just great. We have had the fortune to taste fantastic pizzas in Naples.... Red Hot Mamma's pizzas easily equalled them. We'll definitely return when next in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Nunca antes había probado la pizza de masa fermentada, así que estaba un poco escéptico, pero estaba felizmente sorprendido, ¡fue increíble! Los sabores eran fenomenales incluso para una Margherita (aburrida lo sé.) El personal era igual de bueno y obtuvimos mucha comida por nuestro dinero del que nunca te quejas. Esperamos volver!

Came for a surprise family birthday celebration. Food was excellent. Bi and the team are friendly and helpful and went over and above to ensure we had the most wonderful night. We highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to return.

The most disappointing was food. King prawns in tagliatelle pasta were frozen and small, only 2 big and fresh ones were put on the plate . Pasta didn’t taste fresh. Bad tiramisu, the biscuits were completely soaked which is totally wrong ! Very expensive when we talk about the food and the quality of the food we were given. Also staff ignored our request to book a nice table for two and they put us down the main access route for waiting staff and customers and looks like they have not allocated the table beforehand… no check back how the food was, no “goodbye” or “thanks for coming” on the way out. Not going back, not recommending

The staff at this Bella Italia Location are so friendly and kind, we had the best possible service and I cant explain enough how thankful our waiter was for taking these photos. The food was incredible as perscribed via the pictures below. Well done!

Nice but side order was really small!

I had pre-booked a table at Carluccio’s to include the 3 course Valentines set menu with Prosecco and box of chocolates. The restaurant was too bright, with tables tightly packed together with uncomfortable seating and tables suited for cafe dining not evening dining. Tables were so close together that hearing our own conversation was near impossible. The table was booked for 7pm and we agreed to a basket of bread which came with a tablespoon of cold olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We did ask for more and that was accommodated but it took so long our starters arrived. Bearing in mind it was now almost 8pm. The starters, a rice ball stuffed with a truffle cheese was good, cooked well and full of flavour. The celeriac soup was full of flavour but the crispy parsnip strips were soggy because they had clearly been sitting in the soup too long before being served. The main course took a further hour for the main course. The Saltimbocca with mushrooms - a dry over cooked piece of chicken breast with burnt roast potatoes in a truffle sauce and a risotto verde which was cooked well but attention to detail ie the chunks of radish lacked finesse. Another 20 minutes and a little push to our waiter we finally got our desserts. Profiteroles with pistachio sauce. These were filled with ice cream and vanilla custard but we were given forks to eat them with. Try cutting a large crispy profiterole with a fork and see how you get on, not to mention eating ice cream and pistachio sauce. The first lot of drinks we received early on but the second drinks took a long time and my cocktail was minus the straw. Finally and I guess unfortunately several police officers entered the restaurant to deal with an incident on another table. All in all it was an expensive disappointment, food lacking finesse and attention to detail was overlooked. I was left feeling like I had been on a long flight with uncomfortable seats and tightly packed in.
