The best restaurants serving Italian food in Guildhall York Yorkshire and The Humber

Stopped for a quick coffee on the way to do a little shopping in town. Never been in here before but I have heard good things. From walking in the door we were greeted with friendly hellos from the staff. Ordered a coffee and a tea and within minutes we were served. Very relaxed atmosphere and the cakes looked amazing. We will be back. Special little treat on the side of our cups ….

Fantastic experience. Really friendly place with great food. Good value for money in York. Waiters were lovely. Lovely old building.

Had arancini which were tepid so took them back to be reheated, one was still lukewarm, would have been better freshly made -

Excellent coffee. Good strong Americana served in a sensible sized cup and not drowned in a mug. I was in early so the cafe was quiet and the barista was wrestling with the coffee machine. Good to know that they know how to fix their own machines.

Popped in for a quick lunch. Excellent pizzas, fresh ingredients, light & crispy base. Fast service. Would recommend for pizzas.

One of the best pizza places I’ve ever visited while traveling. During my three-day stay in York, I enjoyed it so much that I ate there twice. The pizza Margherita and Napolitana were absolutely delicious, and the Sicilian cannolo was fantastic. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Highly recommended!

Great little cafe. Genuinely one of the best panini I have ever eaten.

Great little Italian near the York Minster. Food menu was really well thought out with many options making it hard to choose what to enjoy for dinner! Great food and service and we had a lovely seat by the window downstairs that they managed to fit us in when they thought they were already fully booked. Thanks ❤️

Best meatballs I have ever had.

Really nice and authentic Italian restaurant in York. It’s off the beaten track and we only went on a recommendation but it was well worth finding it and eating there. We both had the spaghetti carbonara which was delicious. It is CASH only though so come prepared. There were lots of people there that were obviously regulars which is always a good sign. Reasonably priced.

Mamma Mia is a fantastic restaurant, with really great food and very nice, friendly staff. Booking a table was super straightforward, and the team at Mamma Mia went out of their way to make sure that my girlfriend had a wonderful birthday celebration. 10/10, would recommend!

Visited Sunday lunchtime and had the shared Sunday Roast. Warning its not for couples with small appetites. Really well cooked with good veg and roasties. Nice amount of beef, chicken and pork belly. Also tried a couple of desserts which were excellent. Restaurant was bright and clean with attentive but not overwhelming staff. Service was good and prompt

Lovely Italian, happily recommended for family events. Freshly prepared food and impeccable service

Unfortunately the Luxury Ice Cream Company online menu is wrong. I was there on Sunday afternoon intending to have a banana split and buy my grand-daughter a Biscoff sundae but neither of these was on offer. The LICC did not respond to my email the day before our visit and their telephone number was not recognised. Having said that, the ice cream we did have was delicious.

Very disappointed. Food could have been much better if the chef cared more. The lasagne was cold. Staff were inattentive and not at all friendly. No heating in upstairs seating area.
