The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

I went to the Eataly shop for the first time. It is filled of lots of lovely looking food. I bought some samphire from here. The packaging doesnt make it very obvious that it may contain traces of all tree nuts. I wouldnt check thoroughly that a plain vegetable would contain nuts, and it wasnt made obvious. Ended up having an allergic reaction and in A And E. a vegetable shouldnt may contain nuts, and if it does make it very explicit not in small letter on the back.

So many brilliant food and drink outlets, lots of choice, great atmosphere

We arrived bang on time for our 5.30 reservation, to be greeted and taken downstairs and sat in a table in the middle of the restaurant surrounded by pretty much empty tables. Compared to upstairs which was bright and lively ( and not full...) I could only describe downstairs as bleak. We ordered relatively quickly but I had to ask three times for tap water, I was incredibly thirsty and was on the verge of pouring my own glass (!) when my daughter asked for a third time and it finally came. The dough balls arrived very quickly, followed swiftly by the pizzas. As we were only half way through the dough balls they took them back and kept them warm. They returned with them about 10 minutes later and they were tiny ...also very over seasoned and greasy. All in all very disappointed, and wish we had gone to one of the many different restaurants in the area.

Lovely meal. Could not fault this restaurant for fabulous food and attentive staff. If I lived in Bournemouth I would go every week.

The manager was helpful and efficient and we enjoyed our morning coffee experience.

Really poor experience, loads of tables just left in a state after people had finished eating. We were sat at a table that had to be wiped down around us. My partners carbonara was like warm but meat burnt so sent back and therefore didn’t eat together. My lasagne luke warm but didn’t send back as bloody hungry. Use to be really good but wouldn’t recommend to your dog, considering this has cost circa £60 for 2. Go somewhere else as Richmond has better places to eat.

Called in today Saturday for lunch and was very disappointed in the overall experience. Ordered a starter for two then pizza and salad to share. All the food turned up at once and when waiter was told he just walked away. So we eat pizza from a starter bowl. Overall the place is nice to look at but the service and food is not great. Wouldn’t recommend and safe your money. Very poor 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

I went to pizza express to take away some dough balls before me and my son go to movies . So I popped in for take away. Me and my son were waiting by the door and 2 staff passed by a few times and even made eye contact but they all ignored us and didn’t come to serve us until I was shouting to one of the waitress and saying excuse me for a few times and then she came to us. I asked her why nobody here seems to receive customers and she said she was cleaning the table. Her attitude was she didn’t care at all. I asked is this the way you treat other customers or just me? And she asked me do you want to talk to my manager? That was her response. I talked to the manager and my 12 years old son was complimented how he handled the situation because earlier he went to the staff and asked for someone to come to us. The manager said sorry for the under trained staff. It was very bad experience even though all we asked for was just a take away order. I suggest to not go dine there. There are always a few people who have a bad attitude that makes other people look bad. I feel sorry for the people who work there with them.

Now changed to Axios,will be going back

Lovely service, coffee and cake. Plenty of seats and everywhere was clean and tidy. The shopping centre was a bit chilly.

Excellent pizzas and fresh ingredients always. I love the sides offer and appreciate the fast delivery service

Lovely fresh food , fast service, staff freindly, keep up the good work 😋😊👍🍕

Food poisoning from the chicken shish :( Would not return.

I ordered some pizzas, very salty! I requested a delivery due to my work, given that it is not the first time that I order from other restaurants and they have always found me, I had an unpleasant discussion with the delivery man, very rude, he didn't wanted give me my pizzas because the indications that I had given in his opinion were not good, wasting my time! the salt on the pizza can be adjusted but the delivery man can change it! or it will make you lose more customers

Joe was fantastic even though they were very busy! His service was absolutely spot on! Food was great and really enjoyed everything about it.
