The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Having continuously rang the number as advertised on Google to book as advised when buying the Groupon voucher, we tried to book for 2 weeks before visit but we had no answer. We went to the cafe on the day we visited Liverpool, we asked for a table for 2. They asked if we had a booking & if it was groupon to which I replied no to the booking but yes to Groupon. I was about to try and explain we had tried the number had no answer but we were cut dead by a man, possibly the chef who just said NO...and that was it. Although there were tables free I appreciate they were possibly booked but sadly the rudeness off the chef was an absolute let down having read good things about here. Don't do Groupon if you just want fully paying customers 🙄

I organized a group dinner for my birthday and service was exceptional! Very accomodating, flexible and hospitable! They went the extra mile, all my guests were pleased. Totally recommend it!

Thank you so much to Carlo and his wonderful team for looking after us so well yesterday evening and catering for the Dunstone Bennett Complementary Health Centre's 15th Anniversary. As always the food was delicious and plentiful! I thoroughly recommend Sorrentino's!

I was here with friends on Friday, the service was excellent, and all the dishes were delicious. I highly recommend the pasta and pizza, absolutely top-notch!

A restaurant we’ve been wanting to visit for a while and I honestly do not know why we waited so long. The staff were very welcoming. The atmosphere was very cosy and warm. One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve visited. Such a nice experience which we will be doing again very soon.

Great service had wonderful cozy atmosphere and hot fresh foods.

Used to go years ago when it was Fallen Angels but only been a couple of times since it's been Cenetta. I love the decor, it's cozy & feels like eating in a wine cellar but my husband hates it and says it's like a seedy basement! I had calamari which was a huge portion, cooked beautifully but I had to ask for some garlic mayo as it just had a lemon wedge! My friend had mussels which she enjoyed (creamy sauce which I'm not keen on). I had duck with pancetta, cherry & walnut (perfectly cooked, very tender) with a fondant potato which was OK (bit floury rather than waxy). My friend had tagliatelle topped with a salmon steak, again creamy sauce. She said it was very salty in patches & I tried 2 small flakes of the salmon & one was fine, one was very salty - nice though. We had a lush bottle of Primitivo, no room for pud but they looked nice. £50 each including 10%+ tip. The thing that really put me off was the staff banged the back of my chair every time they went past (and it wasn't a squeeze either) and as we were right in the middle opposite the kitchen pass it was upwards of 10 times. I should have said something after the 2nd time but it was 4 different staff members doing it.

Decent food, served fast, great for families, the staff were utterly fantastic last Saturday night, they were helpful, engaging and wonderful with our kids. A sincere thank you to the team, highly recommend for families looking for decent food in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

All things we ordered were checked in bin to much salt mo flavour except for the salt waste of money

Lovely food. Clean. Staff great.

Booked a table for 9 people for a family birthday 2 weeks in advance. On our way to the restaurant we checked the website to look at the menu to discover they were temporarily closed and had been for a while. The restaurant had made no attempt to contact us to inform us they were closed and when we called up to confirm they made no apologies. If we hadn't checked we would have been left stood on the street on a Friday evening with nowhere to go! Disgraceful service, will not be going again despite positive experiences in the past.

Wonderful evening at this cosy restaurant, the owner Mateo and his charming assistant being so friendly and accommodating. Delicious food, will definitely return when back in the area.

Great restaurant for either lunch or dinner, always dine here when we are in Weymouth. Food, service and atmosphere make it well worth a visit.

Everything good , food was great, Service good. but it was way too loud , wife & I , could barely hear each other over table. It was full , I think they had a large group in over many tables. Just lots of loud voices all talking over each other , couldnt wait to get out. Maybe could do with some soft furnishings or something to absorb some noise. Shame really.

A very pleasant, calm and welcoming environment with helpful and friendly service and a first class pizza! Definitely would return. Thankyou. Tim
