BELLA ITALIA BASILDON REVIEWS

Just had lunch here as an early Mothers Day treat. We were seated quickly. Restaurant was clean and our server Leanne was very helpful. Our drinks order was taken and received shortly afterwards, same with our food order. All the food tasted amazing, absolutely delicious! We will definitely come back here again in the future.

Took the kids here and everything was great, just what we expected. They kindly gave us colouring stuff which kept the kids busy whilst our food was being prepared. Service was quick. A restaurant ideal for the whole family.

Great food and amazing service. Kid friendly environment. Highly recommending.

GAMBERO D'ORO BENFLEET REVIEWS

This is probably one of the good Italian restaurant where you can enjoy your meal while having a good atmosphere and nice music on the back ground. Food 10 at 10 of what you can expect from Italian cuisine. Clean spot on. I was impressed by how spotlessly clean are the glasses! Definitely recommend and coming back.

First time we have been here. Our friends treated us as it was our 50th wedding anniversary. The food was excellent and the staff are really good. We will be going back.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, excellent service and really good food, an overall great meal, highly recommended.

PIZZA EXPRESS BASILDON REVIEWS

Came in for a treat lunch for our Anniversary. The restaurant was pretty empty as it was a Wednesday lunchtime. The food was absolutely delicious! Really fresh and full of flavour. Amy, our waitress, was very helpful and attentive. She even adjusted my dessert slightly to my request, which I was very grateful for. Would definitely dine here again in the future.

Really fast service our waitress was lovely! The food was great i had the zucchini linguine and it was 10/10! Had a great lunch and would recommend.

Great atmosphere. Excellent service. Very friendly and welcoming.
