The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

La pizza era increíble. Tenía el Parma y estaba perfectamente cocinado. Mencionamos que teníamos poco tiempo y la pizza llegó en menos de cinco minutos.

Second visit this month, our pre Christmas meal to ourselves. And another most enjoyable meal. Started with the flat garlic pancake, which I really enjoyed, followed that with Queenie Scallops then main courses of lamb cooked in the wood fired oven and venison also cooked in the same oven, both were so tender and succulent could have ate them both. Service was the usual excellent and un flustered confident well timed affair

The food at Little Italy is always good but lunch today was the best yet . Papperdelle pasta with chicken , sundried tomatoes , spinach , onions , pesto , olive oil , mozzarella, and black pepper Bella Bella , you won’t be disappointed, Francesco always serves authentic Italian cuisine , pay this little restaurant a visit , we’re always made welcome x

WoW: Lovely venue, great service with outstanding food... ...We visited this 'gem' of a restaurant and was warmly welcomed, shown to our table in the themed restaurant ...Then the chef and staff looked after our every need. We had an amazing steak cooked personally for us, with the cuts explained, steaks cooked individually, and the entire evening much enjoyed ...Congratulations to Chef Noureddine Lakbichy, and the OneTEAM 👏 👏 👍 👌

This is not called il Caprese anymore - Michael’s Bistro as it is now called, was lovely for starters but the main courses were disappointing - it’s a shame’s especially the ramen which was without chili

Really disappointing experience. Arrived at 8.30 while travelling. Shown to a table with a dirty cloth. The building was freezing and I had to turn around the radiator to get it to point at me. Order food … a salad, mushrooms, pasta and bread that all came at the time. The food was okay but stodgy. No check to see if so needed another drink, which I had finished sometime ago. I then stupidly ordered the brownie. Heard it being popped in the microwave. It was only half done … on edges hot but completely frozen on inside. Really disappointing overall and would not come back. What is weird is looking down the reviews you can see that people have had two very different experiences of this restaurant. Sadly this was not a good day!!

Muy buena calidad y servicio fantástico (gracias a ellos combinamos diferentes vinos con cada plato... experiencia increíble)

¡Este lugar no es 5/5, este lugar es 10/10! Siempre gran pizza, auténtico estilo Napoli con los mejores ingredientes y preparado con pasión. . Coma dentro para un ambiente relajado encantador, o para llevar en la caja icónica 'Bellillo'. . Constantemente genial, muchas gracias!

Place was nice and welcoming. Staff were lovely. Google says Vegan and vegetarian options. Menu key at the bottom shows VG/V but alas one starter only - a tomato bruschetta. Only other options were to leave off the cheese so it was very bland. My friend is dairy intolerant and also had to have 'cheese removal'. You can get some great vegan cheese nowadays! - It spoils it when it's your Christmas Do and you expect good things. Some confusion over VG/V dishes and a bit of a lack of awareness about serving a diabetic full sugar coke. Others felt the drinks were a bit pricey. We're not that hard to please usually - honest!

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.

This restaurant has to surely be one of the best around Hornchurch for a taste of Italian and Mediterranean food. A family run eatery led by husband and wife team Enzo and Gina serves excellent food, providing first class service, ambience and value is second to none. Thanks for another great evening guys.

Cozy and pleasant restaurant, Very friendly staff I loved the food He recommended it 100%by 100%

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 👍❤️🥳

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