The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Amazing little spot to cool off this beautiful May Sunny rare weather. The oitdoor seats are just fantastic to enjoy your Gelato without it being metled.

Great atmosphere and authentic cuisine! Totally recommending

By far the best restaurant in Altrincham. We absolutely love it/it’s our ‘go to’. The menu is perfect - just a few options, done to the highest standard. Great atmosphere, great service, great food. Keep up the good work, guys!!!!

My go to Italian the best I’ve ever had friendly staff great vibes what more can you ask for

Walking by the canal, we passed this stunning restaurant, decided right there and then to have dinner with my family. I had the mussels in tomato sauce which was divine as my antipasti, on the chef’s special. My mains was really scrumptious lobster ravioli in creamy lobster bisque sauce with baby shrimps. My hubby chose the Paccheri Al ragu and my son had spaghetti bolognese. All very delicious and hearty family dinner with bruschetta and tomato pizza bread for their starter. Nano and Lee are very nice, courteous and attentive. All the staff are really, really pleasant. I would recommend it for special lunch and dinner out and for a relaxing meals with friends and family.

Very nice meal and a glass of red.would eat here again

We Love this place. It's all of the above, super A1 staff and the owner is a really lovely woman. Highly recommended for a great easy going tasty meal.

First visit. Had the veal t-bone from their specials list. Amazing. Perfectly cooked and super tasty.

The food was nice, but to wait an hour and a half for starters is unacceptable.

Good value for money, especially the Aperito offer. They also have a deli corner now, after they close Mercato, which was locate inside the Grafton Shopping Mall. They sell nice Italian products, some as well from Greece and Spain. While for drinking and eating is great, the deli is a bit over priced.

Outstanding breakfast. Had the dirty chai latte (insane) and a “the avocado” w/ added mushrooms and chilli oil. Holy smokes it was amazing. High quality, fresh ingredients. Really hit the spot. Gave me London cafe vibes. Get involved.

Lugar ótimo com uma comida gostosa e deliciosa- trazendo o sabor da serra gaúcha !! Bom atendimento e um ambiente agradável para aproveitar a dois ou com a família!! Vale a pena e o preço é justo !!

Very friendly staff, Ellie and Daysan looked after myself and my wife allowing us to taste and recommending wines to compliment our food order. We had a fantastic lunch and cant wait to return.

We visited this restaurant after spending most of the day at a car meet-up at Grantley Hall, having travelled from London. I had done some research beforehand and chose this spot based on the strong reviews—and for the most part, it lived up to the hype. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by our waiter Olivia, who was friendly, attentive, and really made us feel looked after throughout the evening. With big appetites, we kicked off with three starters: 1. Pork skewers – Small portions and the meat lacked standout flavour. I wouldn’t recommend this dish. 2. Calamari – Unfortunately, this was quite tough. The batter was thin and underwhelming in taste. 3. Meatballs – Nicely flavoured and enjoyable, though again, the portion size was on the smaller side. While the starters didn’t quite meet our expectations, things took a dramatic turn for the better with the main course. I ordered the lasagna, which Olivia had confidently recommended—and it absolutely delivered. It was piping hot, with a perfect crispy exterior and a soft, rich interior. Every bite was packed with flavour and clearly prepared with care. Hands down, the best lasagna I’ve had in a long time—highly recommended! For dessert, I went with the Baileys chocolate ganache, and it was another winner—smooth, indulgent, and perfectly balanced in flavour. Service from Olivia was top-notch—genuinely one of the highlights of the evening. Final thoughts: Skip the starters and go straight for the mains and desserts. The lasagna alone is worth the visit. A lovely experience overall. Best regards, FERRARI Matty

The T-bone steak was mostly gristle! The place has a nice atmosphere and very friendly staff but £7 for a pint of lager is criminal.
