The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Such a gorgeous friendly restaurant and with a amazing 50% offer on Sunday til Thursday…we have been four times now amd never been disappointed

Really authentic place food high standards

Best ribs I've ever had followed by a fabulous lasagne. My hubby had the calzone, beautiful dough and packed with filling. Would be a regular patron if we lived closer. Mario is a wonderful host and his staff are brilliant, friendly attentive and not at all pushy but watchful for when you need another drink

Went here for a meal before going to Grand Theatre to see Sister Act. It may not look great but Brilliant Pizzas and simple but fresh salad. Great friendly service. Just what was needed a perfect pre theatre meal.

A lovely meal under the happy hour offer - starter and pizza for £14. Excellent value and pizzas were huge! Lovely food and very good service. Staff very pleasant. Would definitely recommend especially mon-Thur when the offers are on as would struggle to get same quantity and quality of food for same price elsewhere.

One of the worst Italian restaurant in Essex, service was slow and food was crap, wrong food was served to our table, when we complained they took 45 minute to get our correct order

This is a lovely restaurant, I assume by a family. The food was wonderful and the staff very polite. Pricing of the food was spot on and reflected well with the proportions and quality of the food presented. This is a restaurant that relies on positive feedback for customers like me. And because of what I experienced it’s has to be positive. Next time I am running the Brighton marathon and stay in Steyning I will definitely go back to this lovely little restaurant.

Very enjoyable evening with delicious food and attentive service. Would highly recommend and looking forward to our next visit already.

I put a negative review here. However credit where credit is due, the restaurant reached out and we are all good. Sometimes it’s just a misunderstanding…

Incredibly friendly and welcoming service plus delicious food at a great price. Definitely a hidden gem within the neighborhood.

We chanced upon Mario's on Valentine's. We didn't have a reservation but still got a table- it was nicely busy. The food was excellent with great veggie options. Had a lovely chat to Mario who was really friendly and welcoming. And it was reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back.

Post cinema Vue 02 y una cena ligera en routehome. Tres de nosotros. Un cálido saludo de Emmie, una super mesa, agua y menús. Siempre me divierte, el servicio nocturno viene con manteles. Flores frescas siempre 🌹. Sí, he tomado mi nueva marsala habitual, de ternera y setas, patatas asadas de romero y una pequeña ensalada con aderezo balsámico fabuloso. Mis amigos tenían pescado de bacalao con patatas fritas! Todo maravilloso. Una copa de vino cada uno. Tratada como realeza (Emmie, gracias). La mejor comida de restaurante en un ambiente frío y súper valor 👍❤️🥳

The food was lovely. The atmosphere was very welcoming. The staff was kind and friendly. La Stella is a highly recommended visit. Thank you for such a lovely time.

Authentic family run restaurant with nice Italian atmosphere. Good menu all freshly cooked. This is our 3rd visit and we will be back next time we visit Southport. PS Free parking.

A great local Italian in the former Lee Green post office. Family owned and run with a long menu (which normally starts alarm bells but in this case doesn’t!). The staff are amazing and great with kids while the food is hearty, tasty and very good value for money. Definitely recommended.
