Luciano's

Reviewed By anyoldiron2

My lovely wife Jackie says ‘best tiramisu in the world’! Lovely evening with great food, lots of it and the irrepressible Luciano. Try not to eat too much of the delicious garlic butter and hot crusty rolls that are Luciano’s signature offering . There’s plenty more to come! Prawn cocktail or avocado and prawns is a great stater. Brian Ashby OBE had the steak which was delicious. Pollo esttragon (with tarragon) a popular choice, and fish, be it trout or sole is cooked to perfection . Vegetables and potatoes are finished perfectly, and then of course the sweet trolley …You’ll have to visit to find out the truth

Bella Vita

Authentic Italian Restaurant serving wide range of traditional dishes and some modern ones too. And, a good selection of wines from around the world. Gluten free and vegan options available

Saturday late lunch, thought this place looked inviting. Had the special starter of crispy fried prawns with garlic and rosemary bread between us which was gorgeous and thought great, main meals would be fantastic, but very disappointing. I had pasta with ham, mushroom and cream sauce which tasted lovely but was served on a freezing cold plate so made this food go cold very quickly and by the time I had got someone's attention for the black pepper I had already eaten the majority of it due to the lack of warmth, I did tell the waiter and he just said you should of let me know but that was what we were trying to do but couldn't get anyone's attention even though they were not busy serving food. My husband had the cannelloni and said it was very dried up with no flavour. I was also annoyed at the fact they added 10% service charge to the bill but never saw a notice about this, I always leave a generous tip when the service and food is good quality but did not want to leave anything on this occasion!! The following day my husband also had an upset stomach and felt sick which led him to be in bed all day long, and the only food he had had was here.

Bella Pizza & Pasta

Reviewed By jimbos878

Lovely meal, although sadly we didnt get the warm rolls that every other table seemed to?! Nonetheless, the meal was lovely. The pizzas as ever were excellent and made at a see through counter for all diners to see.A lovely touch was when a 4 year old member of our party, who had been fascinated by the pizza chef tossing the dough, was invited round d to try his hand at it. Made a lovely heart shaped pizza, helped him put it in the oven, and will be enjoyed tomorrow!We were a bit disappointed with the waitresses and had to go and find some things ourselves, which is the only thing stopping me giving a 5 rating. Overall a lovely restaurant, quality home cooked food and service with a smile.

This place obviously has a reputation as there was quite a line on Saturday night but the queue moved really quickly and we didn't have to wait long. The pizza was the best I've had. Really fresh ingredients perfectly cooked. We bought some dipping sauces too and these were absolutely amazing too (we were all fighting over the pizza crusts so we could dip them!).

Terracotta Restaurant

Welcome to TERRACOTTA Restaurant After our seventh successful years, we would like to thanks all our customers who visited us and said: it was the best Italian restaurant in Kent and all South East UK, we are continuing to grow and establish ourselves as

Reviewed By Alan3453

This restaurant titles itself 'fine-dining' outside.Can you have fine dining pizza? You most certainly can. We called in on spec at opening time on a Friday night. Drinks were ordered and we ordered a bottle of house red. I usually don't bother to taste the house wines but on this occasion I did and the sicilian red was bursting with flavour and punched well above its weight. The night was off to a good start. Two of us ordered pizzas (anchovy/capers and a pepperoni) as well as spaghetti bolognese and lasagne. The food was cooked to order and this understandably involves a little wait, no problem. My pizza arrived fresh out the oven and it was obvious that great deal of care had been taken over its presentation, this was trumped by the flavour, every mouthfull was absolutely delicious all on a crispy light base. The plates were cleared but one of our party left some bolognese. The word must have gone back to the kitchen because the chef arrived and enquired as to whether she had enjoyed it (a nice gesture), the portion was only a little too large for her to manage. Needless to say the desserts menu had to exercised although I couldn't manage. They arrived and were promptly cleared, absolutely delicious. This was the last day of our holiday and made a great impression. Lucky people of Hythe.

Roka Pizza

Authentic Italian pizza with a thin crust made from 00 flour, topped with imported Italian meats and cheese. An experience that you cannot get from the pizza high street chains. Take away essentially but we do have limited seating should you choose to eat

Reviewed By Sparkimarc

Classic line from a classic movie and Roka serves classic pizzas! Four of us dined there on a blustery Saturday evening .Not crowded but they were very busy with takeaways. Simple comfortable surroundings and friendly staff. We had 2x12" pizzas and 2x10" pizzas which you can get for a discounted price, as well as the recommended wood fired roast potatoes.Food was lovely with real refreshing authentic flavours-potatoes were great and pizzas fab-we all have eaten pizzas ranging from Sainsbury,Dominoes and even in New York but Rokas were really very tasty! Drinks were 2 beers,glass of wine and a soft drink and bill came to £52.They are happy for you to take away anything you cant finish. Parking can be a bit of a challenge in Sandgate sometimes but its worth it to visit Roka. Definately recommended!
