"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."

Aubaine High Street Kensington

➤ 37-45 Kensington High Street, London W8 5ED, United Kingdom

Tea • Steak • French • Cheese

"Went there with a friend. Very friendly service, nice atmosphere, just the price is a bit expensive. I had salmon as main and then Nutella profiteroles for dessert. Salmon is perfectly cooked. Barely cooked without destroying the fine texture of the salmon. Side plate with cherry tomatoes, clams, and potatoes chunks with butter and sea salt makes the taste never boring. Nutella profiteroles has a cookie on top of vanilla ice-cream on a freshly bake fluffy cake. Sprinkled with freshly roasted hazelnut with a small cup of hot chocolate to drizzle on your dessert. When eat with all portion together, the crisp cookie provides biting texture, vanilla ice cream gives the sweet and cold sensation, immediately follow by hot fluffy cake, roasted hazelnut, and chocolate liquid. The perfect balance of hot and cold sensation from ice cream and freshly bake cake gives the tongue in bliss. The sweetness of the vanilla ice cream is balanced with slightly salty cookie, making it never dull to eat every bite. The waiters and waitresses couldn’t be nicer. My friends plate was not how he wanted. She properly sent it back to the kitchen, and kept us informed how long it would take so we are at ease. Overall, great friendly service, and delicious food. Only comes with a high bill at the end."

Alderley Edge

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

Pizza • Cafés • Mexican • European

"We were truly impressed by our experience at the restaurant. Upon arrival, we were greeted with warm smiles and asked if we needed vegetarian, gluten-free, or any special menus. They also offered us the option to have a drink at the bar or go straight to our table. Our coats were promptly taken to the coat room, and our drink orders were immediately taken. The waiter was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu; when I mentioned the ingredients of a cocktail I had found online, he instantly recognized it. The service continued to be exceptional throughout our visit. The food was outstanding, beautifully presented, and exactly as described on the menu. The portions were generous, leaving no room for disappointment. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience and will definitely return. The manager, whose name I unfortunately didn’t catch, was a true asset to the establishment."

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"

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

➤ 42 Marylebone High Street, London I-W1U 5HD, United Kingdom

"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."

Sergios

➤ 84 Great Titchfield Street London, W1W 7QY, W1W 6SD, United Kingdom

Pasta • Pizza • Steak • Italian

"We managed to get a last minute booking which surprised us, given that it was a Friday evening in the west end. When we arrived we received a warm welcome and given a nice table by the window. We ordered wine which was decanted at the table by our waitress Valentina. We chose mussels to start followed by pizza and sergios cod provencal along with a tomato and onion salad which they kindly prepared despite not being on the menu, (not always easy to achieve in many other restaurants) The mussels were tiny and many of the shells were empty, however the marinara sauce was tasty. The pizza, quattro formaggi was incredibly salty and doughy. The cod dish was bland and in our opinion the fish was undercooked. We were hungry so ate what we could. But left a considerable amount of food untouched. When the waitress came to clear she could obviously see that we had not enjoyed the food and asked how it was. She was also surprised that no-one had come to do a quality check. She said she would go and speak to the manager, which she did. After we paid and made to leave the manager then approached and offered us a limoncello which we declined. Sadly we were disappointed and despite there being many celebrity photographs adorning the walls, we found the experience underwhelming."

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."

Valentina Italian Restaurant Weybridge

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

Cafés • Sushi • Pizza • 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."

Valentina Putney

➤ 75 Upper Richmond Road Putney London, SW15 2SR, SW15 2TD, United Kingdom

Beer • Cafés • Pizza • Italian

"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."

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."

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."

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."

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."

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"

"I had the most amazing chicken masala here recently. I didn't even know this place existed. I had a business meeting in the restaurant and I am very impressed with the food. definitiw one of the best Indian meals I've ever had. they were looking forward to going back there, they also had a nice pinot grigio I forgot to get the name. the person with whom I had pasta and was also very impressed by their meal. as they can see from the photos, it was also beautifully presented."

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."

Fiume

➤ 5a Bridgnorth Rd, WV6 8AB, Wolverhampton, United Kingdom

Sushi • Cafés • Pizza • Pasta

"Booked to come here to celebrate my Birthday with family. Have to admit, I haven't visited here since before 2019, my expectations were exceeded. They were most accommodating, due to the fact that some of my family members sadly became ill, so could not attend, however after informing Fiume, they were most gracious adjusted our table dinning requirements accordingly. The restaurant was very busy, however, that certainly didn't detract from the excellent attentive service that we received. From our starters of Crespella Ai Funghi E Salsiccia, to our mains of whole Seabass Flambe Di Gamberi, our food was superb, along with the very attentive waitress that looked after our table for our food drinks. It was quite a night, due to the fact that there must have been at least 6 other Birthday parties celebrating there, which was unusual to experience so many, . . just shows what a popular Italian Restaurant this really is. Thank You to all the staff chefs Fiume Italian Bar Restaurant, for making my Birthday celebrations an evening to remember. We'll definitely be back very soon."
