The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Very happy about lunch today. We tried king prawns in tomato and chilli sauce, followed by honey chicken special and chicken cordon bleu. Squeezed in a shared portion of tiramisu. Delighted today. Lovely staff too.

I visited as a family of 6. For a place like Frankie and Benny's you don't expect to get fine dining quality food, which I feel some people expect. I was expecting decent food that costs what I pay for it and that's what I got.I ordered the Garlic mushrooms on bruschetta for starter and a penne arrabiata for main with a side of Garlic Pizza bread. The starter was very good, very tasty and good level of seasoning. The main was quite simple, spicy enough, could maybe have done with more seasoning. The garlic pizza bread side was a little undercooked and doughy but nonetheless it was enjoyed by my party. I got Tiramisu for dessert which was plentiful and rich. Though our waitress was incredibly polite and attentive, one thing I did find odd was that my 21 year-old brother did get Id'd by the waitress for a beer, despite there being his 2 older parents next to him. I believe it isn't illegal for a person of 16 or older to have a drink with a meal as long as they are accompanied by someone 18 or older so when this happened I was a little confused.We used the 33% off voucher code which nicely took £20 off of our bill. When you truly took into perspective what youre paying for in terms of food quality and service it adds up, I will definitely visit again with my family.

Quick, tasty, decently priced and served with a smile! I don’t ask for much - but Frankie & Bennys, Lincoln tick every box and pass with flying colours. Ok - the food isn’t sensational, but for what it is, it does superbly. Free refills on coffee and tea which you barely have to ask for as our waiter took care of us enough to ask when our cups looked empty. Perhaps the overly generous score is to combat the harsh reviews below - this is not a bad place to eat! And I come here enough to know that. I have the three egg omelette with different fillings each time to try them out!

We had my daughter’s 18th at Borge Function room, it is a perfect venue. Staff were so helpful and friendly, they really couldn’t do enough to help us. It’s modern, clean and plenty of seating, we had a fantastic night.

Si vous aimez la cuisine italienne il faut y aller les yeux fermés : cuisine de qualité, de plus un...

Gio's sourdough pizzas are absolutely delicious. The best I've had. And the staff were extremely lovely and kind. Would recommend this restaurant any day.

El servicio fue pésimo, peor imposible. Fui con mi familia, la comida no hay como describirla grasienta, de supermercado, el menú infantil, me lo cobraron y solo le trajeron al menor un plato, cuando deberian traer 3 y aun por encima no cobrarlo porque tienen una oferta y lo peor a la hora de pagar me cobraron la propina 2 veces. En resumidas cuentas nada recomendable, pésimo en trato y calidad y aún por encima caro, muy caro para lo que sirven. Id a cualquier sitio menos aquí Es local de Paddington Ahhhh!!!! Se me olvidaba y la limpieza, inexistente, vimos como limpiaban y no limpiaban...

We have a caravan at northwood caravan park and tiggis is just next door, so had to sample their food. Absolutely wonderful. Had the 2 course table d'hote menu, which was fantastic but far too much food. Will go for one meal from the a la carte menu next time.

Went for dinner on Saturday night, myself and my wife. The one thing that gets my goat is when both dishes aren't served together, my wife's main dish came out before my own and she had to wait for my pizza to arrive. Its not hard people to get this right especially when there is only two people to serve. My wife's dish was lovely she said, my pizza was a little well cooked on the base for my liking. I would have like to have a pizza cutting wheel instead of making do with a next to blunt knife. But apart from the above not a bad experience, the place is nice inside and the staff very helpful.

Really disappointed with the service, went in for a meal and only two other tables occupied at the time, we were asked for our drinks order, this then took nearly 10 minutes to materialise whilst staff chatting behind the bar. We then thought as drinks came over we could order our meal but the server dived off to greet other customers arriving. Another 2 parties arrived and half an hour later we were still waiting to have our food order taken. In the meantime the other parties that had come in had been served food! There was no apology for delay the entire time we were there and sadly, although the food was good, I won't be back again.

Came for dinner quiet early around 6 is. Ate hummus, carbonate and tiramisu. They where really really good. The restaurant was full, great service, got sang happy birthday. Really nothing to complain about. Will definetly come back.

Im sorry but the food is just … not it. The owner is friendly and funny and they tried. But please improve on the food. We know its frozen.

Thank you italian farmhouse managers and staff. What an outstanding service I have had. I hired italian farmhouse for my daughters birthday and from start to finish the service I received was amazing. I was unsure of what I wanted and kept swapping and changing my mind not once was I made to feel this was an issue,I just in the end decided I wanted something basic and simple like sausage rolls, wedges, sandwiches. I got this with the fun element for kids making their own pizza! They loved it and went down a treat! I have a niece who I didnt inform had a nut allergy ( my bad ) they were prepared to clean all surfaces allow us to check ingredients and make something for her but understandably said whilst they would do their best they couldn't guarantee so we declined and they allowed us to order in a pizza, this obviously is someones business but I feel to do this they want more than just money they want to give and make customers feel valued and welcome I was so impressed. Staff constantly checked everything was ok, constantly asked if anything else was needed they were prompt in bringing out food and keeping the area clean and tidy, nothing at all seemed to be a bother to them. I also had a courtesy call making sure all had went ok as I'd changed my mind that many times. Thank you so much italian farmhouse for an amazing memory for my little girl. We will most definitely be becoming regulars!

Wonderful , welcoming Italian restaurant . We visited tonight with our Tibetan Terrier and she couldn’t have been made more welcome and was given her own blanket to lie on while we were there . It was lovely to see a home cooked Italian menu and the food was piping hot and oh so tasty . Special mention to Emma our lovely waitress for whom nothing was too much trouble . We will be back next time we are in Ambleside

2nd visit for lunch. 1st visit I had the butter chicken baked potato. This time I tried a sandwich. Hard to choose but went for the ham hock cheese and pickle. Bread super soft, ham good qualify and plenty of filling. Came with fries which were very hot and crispy. Quick and friendly service. Will definitely be going back to try something else. Can't rate this place high enough.
