The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Good food Grate staff Will be returning

The food was exceptional and the service was fantastic, Antonio and Mario made us feel very welcomed and at home, I will definitely be back again

Everything was perfect and delicious 👏like always💪 Love it🔥❗ Pizza/Calzone only from them😉❗

Average.. wouldn’t go here again. All pizzas tasted the same, but the arancini was very nice. Also very expensive for what it was.

Everything good from the food to the service. But a little expensive

Excellent food, nice chilled spot. Great vibe

Great food and the staff were very friendly.

13 or so cyclists decended upon this Costa for elevensies and we were all amazed at the very efficient service provided by two young ladies. This is not a one off we have been coming here over the past few weeks. Good Service,

We were drawn to Basilico by its high 4.6-star rating, but perhaps we should have considered whether any Italians had reviewed it. Intrigued by the Neapolitan dialect pizza names, we ordered three pizzas, mistakenly assuming they were made by Italians. However, the menu included questionable combinations like chicken and pineapple, raising doubts. Unfortunately, limited dining options in Warmwell led us to proceed with the order. Upon delivery, we were sorely disappointed. The pizzas were overly salty, cardboard-like, and utterly flavorless. It's baffling how one can attempt to replicate authentic Italian pizza without a deep understanding of Italian culinary traditions. Italians have a rich food heritage that can only be truly appreciated and replicated through generations of experience and passion. The side salad was equally disappointing, laden with excessive herbs and spices. And at £16 per pizza, the pricing is exorbitant. We strongly advise against ordering from Basilico. It's a disservice to Italian cuisine. It’s a robbery. Never ever again

We decided to give another chance to this restaurant after few years break. Sadly nothing has changed, the food is tasteless,bland,unimaginative = complete disappointment. Two visits within few years with zero improvement are enough to never go back. It’s a shame because the service is good and restaurant is cute and cosy. EDIT: Thanks for your reply. I sent you an email with more details. EDIT #2 I sent you an email twice in September to email address you have provided.I resent it today.Hopefully you will receive it.Thanks EDIT #3 Don’t ask people to contact you via email and then ignore them.It doesn’t make any sense to me.

The Best Italian restaurant in South Shields !

Booked a table for four people and when we got there it was shut . Couldn’t even be bothered to let us know . Very unprofessional

We ate various pasta and pizza. The food was very good and reasonably priced considering it is London. The service is good, and the hours are less English than expected (aka, you can dine late by their standards). I don't give it 5 stars because the wine, a rosé, tasted like absolutely nothing. Better to order water than pay the price of a bottle of wine in London. It has happened to us there more times.

What can I say! Recommended by Italians and loved by everyone.

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
