Piccolino Alderley

➤ Number 50, London Road Alderley Edge, Cheshire SK9 7QD, SK9 7EJ, United Kingdom

"The restaurant must have recently hired a new chef because the quality of the food has significantly improved. The dishes are now spicier, more savory, fresh, and delicious."

TG Italiano

➤ 8 Oktober 6 StreetPest 1051, Budapest, United Kingdom

Wine • Pizza • Drinks • Italian

"Food is good, service is very good. Only negative note is that when I book a table in advance I expect a decent table. I was given one close to the waiters desk, bit uncomfortable, you know the one you are given when you arrive unplanned and they make an effort to accomodate you. There were other tables available but I was said they were booked I booked too..... so overall not happy"

Piccolino Chester

➤ 33 Pepper Row Chester, Cheshire CH11EA, CH1 1DF, United Kingdom

Pizza • Cafés • Kebab • Seafood

"I booked a table for 2 really last minute on a busy December night, piccolio’s manger cosimo took the booking, he was so friendly and helpful that we really needed after a hard work in the cold winter weather! we went in and the restaurants that were breathtaking have woken us! the decor is stylish and above all it was so warm and cozy what we needed, we were greeted with smiles all around by every worker and was immediately taken on our table, without waiting time what ever! we were so swollen! Shortly after we sat, we tamara welcomed them beautiful, well presented and extremely polite. we thought up the menu, while tamara served us the most delicious Rosè Prosecco and took our orders. it was a hard choice, as we wanted to order one of all, the menu choices sound exquisite! so much choice and catering for all food requirements. my own and my friend decided to go for the spaghetti frutti di mare, which was absolutely inconceivable! muddle, mush and calamari topped with a huge garlic king prawn! it didn't take long until there were two empty teller and full bell! we stayed and talked together about the life and there was no hurry to move us from table to tamara has checked us we were so glad to have chosen piccolino chester for our girly dinner date and just wanted to say a massive thank you to cosimo, tamara and the piccolino team. I can't wait to come back to another fantastic evening."

Café Murano - Covent Garden

➤ 34-36 Tavistock Street London, WC2E 7PB, United Kingdom

Fish • Pasta • Coffee • Italian

"Initially the greeter would not give us our tables that we had a booking for. She was actually quite rude saying that they were fully booked and that we couldn't dine there. I have never had that before at all the other cotes I've been to. The restaurant was not busy. When I came back to challenge this and to ask her to check my booking, the manager was very nice and showed us to a table. The food was nice, but this was not great service to start with. Also the loos were particularly dirty. I'm not sure if anyone has ever mopped the floor."

Mandarin Bar Bistrot

➤ Via Monte Di Pieta 16 Via Monte Di Pieta 18Lombardy 20121, Milán, United Kingdom

Cafe • Wine • Coffee • Italian

"The experience is globally very qualitative. I am very pleased with the stay at Bistrot. All inexplicable. Perhaps lacks a little heat the service, which turns out attentive and discreet but a little detached and impersonal. I would like to find a warmer and relaxed style of welcome, a kind of Mandarin Touch that makes the difference and makes guests feel not in a trendy place but in a place of the heart."

Signor Sassi

➤ 14 Knightsbridge Green Knightsbridge London, SW1X 7QL, SW1X 7PA, United Kingdom

Pasta • Steak • Italian • Seafood

"The food was incredible and the service was excellent. I ordered the shrimp appetizer and the filet Signor Sassi, both of which were delicious. I particularly enjoyed the parmesan cheese and olives that were served before the meal instead of bread. It was a great option for someone like me who cannot eat bread or wheat products."

San Carlo Cicchetti- Covent Garden

"Our food wasn’t hot my carbonara was not good had been kept warm had a skin on it and the bacon was so hard we didn’t have time to complain as we’re going to a matinee at the theatre the staff were lovely and were under a lot of pressure it was very busy would go again and hopefully things would be better"

La Brasseria Milanese

"I come to this restaurant almost every weekend. One of my favourite places in London and definitely the best when it come to Italian food. Amazing atmosphere, super nice staff, just the best food. I can only recommend. Especially on a sunny day when you can sit on the terrace."

Orso

➤ 27 Wellington Street London, WC2E 7DB, United Kingdom

Beer • Wine • Casual • Italian

"Orso exceeded our expectations with its intimate atmosphere, making it the perfect spot for a romantic pre-theatre meal. Fortunately, our group had decreased in size to just."

San Carlo Regent Street

➤ 2 Regent Street, London, United Kingdom

Wine • Italian • Vegetarian • Bar-lounge

"Clearly this is an overrated restaurant. I ordered the burrata with tomatoes, The burrata itself nothing to write home about it. Teh tomatoes were over ripped. Then I ordered the taglioni with black truffles, The pasta was slightly over cooked and literally there 3 truffles. The service overall was mediocre. We had to request a couple of times the olive oil, salt, bread, etc. We witnessed an outraged customer who very loudly compliant and insulted the staff. We left the restaurant screaming and insulting. Although such a behaviour was not appropriate, it does resemble the frustration for the lousy service."

"I visited this restaurant again with my father recently. While I still found the food to be good but not exceptional, I was pleased to see that the service had improved significantly."

Sergios

➤ 84 Great Titchfield Street, London, United Kingdom

Cafe • Wine • Full • Italian

"A fabulous Italian restaurant great atmosphere, fabulous service and food, and lovely staff. A group of six of us had dinner there on Saturday night after seeing Abba Voyage and when the staff heard where we had been they put Abba music on! It was my birthday and although no one in our party had told the staff they overheard us talking and made my dessert extra special with a huge sparkler. We had a great night and will definitely go back."

La Lanterna

➤ 35 Hope Street Glasgow, G2 6AE, United Kingdom

Meat • Pasta • Steak • Italian

"The service at La Lanterna was outstanding! The atmosphere was quiet and very relaxing during our dinner. The location was also perfect, within walking distance from our hotel near the train station. There were also bars and shops nearby."

Carlucci

➤ 8-12 High Streer, KY12 7AR, Fife, United Kingdom

Pasta • Pizza • Steak • European

"Originally intended to have a full meal however this didn't go to plan. Service was a bit slow to start with but it was fairly busy and the waiting staff were polite and apologised for the initial delay so we were okay with this. Starters came out fine and we enjoyed the food however around 45 minutes passed and no one had been near us so we had to ask about our mains which were not ready yet. Unfortunately we had plans so needed to leave before we got the mains so paid up for what we had. Overall, we were in the restaurant for well over an hour and a half so really disappointed. The waitress was clearly embarrassed however we made it clear to her there was nothing wrong with her service but clearly an issue in the kitchen. It would have been great if this was communicated to us however it seemed they were prioritising food for delivery as we saw loads coming out the kitchen to get delivered while service all around us was clearly very slow. It might have been appropriate to pause online orders so they could catch up with serving people in the restaurant however there didn't seem to be anyone managing things. It's somewhere we'd hoped to visit again however I don't think I'd want to risk it."

Il Michelangelo Weston

➤ 50A Knightstone Rd, Weston-super-Mare, United Kingdom, BS23 2BE

Pizza • Mexican • Italian • Fast Food

"We had a reservation but still had to wait 35 minutes to be seated, which was a bit frustrating. However, we understand that Christmas Day can be busy. The service and atmosphere were good, with friendly staff. Unfortunately, due to the crowded restaurant, there were several mistakes with our orders. We did not receive the amuse bouche that was listed on the menu, my pan-fried scallops were undercooked and missing caviar, and my rib eye steak was unseasoned and came with minimal sides. The dessert I wanted was not available, so I had to settle for something else. Overall, I only received about half of what was promised on the menu, and for £95 per person, I felt disappointed and ripped off. I wish I had just cooked Christmas dinner myself. As a student, it's difficult to justify spending so much money on a disappointing meal. While I have enjoyed dining here before, this experience was very disappointing. It's possible that overbooking led to these issues."

Valentina Weybridge

➤ 10-12 High Street Weybridge Weybridge, Surrey KT13 8AB, London, United Kingdom

Sushi • Pizza • Pasta • Italian

"My first course had 3 slices of bread with a selection of toppings. 1 was OK (mushrooms in cream) the other 2 were diced tomato and something which was tasteless and both were pointless and uninteresting. With my main course the sauce around the dome of pasta and meatballs was cold, and even after it was bought back to me it was barely warm. The dessert panettone bread pudding was a triumph."

La Figa Restaurant

➤ The Mosaic 45 Narrow Street London, E14 8DN, E14 8DX, United Kingdom

Beer • Pizza • Pasta • Drinks

"massive menu (always a bit suspicious, ordered by the specials. eating was easy, but nice. problem was sold with the wine. £52 for lidl wine (single trade at £12! . they also had no more decanter, despite selling £180 antinori! sat outside, which is nice enough, service lacked a bit in this area (see an age to serve water that was served per glass instead of a bottle"

Valentina Sheen

➤ 210 Upper Richmond Road East Sheen London, SW14 8AH, SW14 7JX, United Kingdom

Beer • Wine • Pasta • Pizza

"Have my brother in law and his wife over from New York and they really wanted Italian food. Valentina's was ideal food was excellent, very accommodating for our 2 young children, service was out standing in general and not for a lot more than we would've spent in one of the pizza chain restaurants. The house wines are very good and very reasonable but the main wine list is very impressive."

Riva

➤ 12-14 West Clyde Street, Helensburgh I-G84 8SQ, United Kingdom

Pizza • Mexican • Italian • European

"I was served by a tall, dark-haired girl who I believe must be the manager; if she isn’t, she certainly should be because her service was exceptional. On the other hand, the guy at the bar, who resembled Ed Sheeran, was quite unfriendly and distant. We would have felt unwelcome if it weren't for the waitress, who worked hard to make us feel at home. She was constantly moving around to ensure all of us were taken care of, seemingly compensating for the lack of effort from the rest of the staff. I was really impressed by her ability to manage the place almost single-handedly. The food was great, but there seemed to be a lack of leadership on the floor. Also, I noticed a red-haired guy actively trying to undermine our waitress, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have given this place a 4-star rating."

Caffe Mamma Ristorante

➤ 110 Kew Road Richmond, Greater London TW9 2PQ, United Kingdom

Beer • Pizza • Pasta • Coffee

"I took my kids on Valentine’s Day to make them feel special. I’ve been to Caffe Mamma’s many times before but hadn’t been for a while. This time was hit and miss for me. I ordered chicken nuggets and chips for my son, but the nuggets were tough. He struggled a little with them, saying they were tough and dry. Our starters were nice. We ordered Calamari and prawns. Both lovely. When it came to main, I usually order pasta, but rather than going for my usual choice, I went for lasagne. I regretted it the moment it arrived. It was just full of tomato sauce. The waitress who took the dish back asked me what was wrong when she saw it wasn’t even barely touched. I told her it’s just drenched in tomato sauce, I could barely find any meat and just got stringy cheese and tomato sauce. I expressed I was disappointed with the dish. They did nothing. In the end, we ordered dessert which was ok. But when I paid the bill for £80, it left me feeling disappointed. I still kept a happy face for the kids but wished I’d booked the Chinese restaurant two doors down instead. I won’t be going back to Caffe Mamma’s after this visit."
