Stupendously overpriced for basic Italian food. Nothing special I don't feel - look to pay around…read more£50 a head for a basic menu and 1 glass of wine. UPDATE: Ok - so I stand corrected. Been back here to find out for myself after I was told that this place wasn't so expensive as it used to be. It was true the food can be cheaper: 2 people, set meal for £20 if you go for the basic (anything really nice you need to pay a bit more (usually around another £4) and a bottle of wine to total around £35 a head. Food is traditional Italian (rather than the bog-standard pasta and pizza), but I'd still say the atmosphere isn't brilliant. Oh, and they didn't leave the wine on the table, but insisted on taking it away somewhere and then pouring it out for you - which I found a little irritating to be honest.

As far as pleasant dining experiences go, this was one of them…read more On a warm early spring day, the bite of the past season finally subsided and my girlfriend and I wanted to sit outdoors while dining Italian style. Especially in town like Henley, the outdoors is particularly a nice place to eat. Strada had two options that met out desires, a totally outdoor seating area and also a strip of two person tables against a completely open wall that is similar to eating half inside-half out. We decided on the latter and loved the seating arrangement. The servers here are on point and always ready to tend to needs and inquiries. We wanted some garlic bread to start and they brought out this delicious crust type of garlic bread bake. It was baked with olive oil and was a spectacular take at a bread starter! See pics for a visual. For my main course I got the Ragu Spaghetti which has some meat chunks in it with thick spaghetti noodles. The sauce has accents of wine and tomato and tasted like a classic ragu Italian sauce! My girl got the Rustica pizza which is basically cheese and sausage. That was also quite good, the sausages were very fresh. It oddly wasn't cut and that was left to her doing with the basic knife they supplied. The dishes were around 10 pounds each so that's also quite reasonable. There are some solid Italian options in Henley, but being that this Strada is also attached to the Regal movie theater, this one is great for a dine-dinner date! Get fed.

I have had bolognese here which is okay, but I had a lovely salmon lentil salad dish here a few weeks ago which was quite delicious. In general the pizza is quite dry and not up to Pizza Express standard. In general the service is good and brisk and we don't have any complaints. This is just another in the Pantheon of mediocre restaurants in the centre of Henley.

FIVE GLOWING STARS!…read more Can y'all say top 10 calzone of whole life? I CAN! Zizzi sits nestled at the base of the town center of Henley. It is quite an enormous structure. The seating on the main floor really opens up and the kitchen sits at the back where you can see the oven. The architecture is really pleasant and creative with a warm vibe accented by interesting art and such!!! Zizzi is quite deceptively large in size, there is also a bar upstairs which is quite a huge space. It was closed when I was there, but perhaps it opens at night. Anyways, I freaked out when I saw calzones on the menu, but didn't really see the type I liked. So I asked our waiter and he was glad to make my custom favorite: ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, pepperonis, and tomato sauce. When it landed in front of me I knew it was going to be quality stuff. I sliced and dunked in marinara as piece after piece of the amazing calzone entered my body. I WAS IN HEAVEN. This is a truly top calzone. As I said, top 10 I've ever had and I'm still loving it to this minute. My girlfriend ordered a thin crust pizza called mezzoe-mezzoe. It was very wide and served on a wood block. It also came with a personal Zizzi pizza cutter which we loved because we could cut any size of pieces we wanted!! I got to try it and loved the non-tomato side. Very high quality pizza. No surprise considering the epic calzone. Overall this place had all the small touches I wanted. Great service from a very understanding and nice waiter, amazing environment, and even custom Zizzi high quality silverware from Italy! Zizzi now. Zizzi forever. Calzone zone!!!

Consistently good Italian with large menu near Heathrow airport…read more New Bettola is located in the village of Colnbrook right past Terminal 5 and down the street from the new Hilton T5 hotel. It's a great place for lunch or dinner when heading to the airport, without the airport prices. There is a small parking lot in front and additional street parking on the side. I've never had a problem finding a spot. The dining room has a decent size and a large back patio that's open in summer. The setting is casual-romantic. Service is prompt and friendly. Special requests are no problem. Food has been consistent and high quality. I love the fresh pastas and the risotto. Nice wine list and interesting cocktail list. Prices are reasonable.

The seating is - for me - pretty uncomfortable, and you wouldn't find yourself bringing the other half here for a romantic meal. The menu is well thought out and the food executed very well. I'm marking it down, because of the blatant chain status, the price and the fact that someone is trying to squeeze a London tourist trap into Henley. There is no parking in the immediate vicinity.

February 15th 2019…read more In Evening, me my mom and my dad had a family dinner together.Everything was going great. We first had to book this Italian restaurant called Rigoletto. After we got there we found a very comfortable seat. Mom and I started to order. My original plan for my third course was to eat a pancake called Crêpes Suzette. The waitress said that I couldn't order that as my third course. It was because there would be alcohol in Crêpes Suzette so he suggested me to try another dessert for my third course so I ordered tiramisu. The rest of our meal was delicious! However, our neighbors ordered Crêpes Suzette and we saw the fire flying up two meters high. It was caused by the alcohol. Because the alcohol was strong enough to make the cooking pan go on fire for two meters high. That was a funny & interesting night. I enjoyed eating in the Rigoletto and if you have time, you can go there for your dinner!!! Fun Fact This was my dolci menu!!!

I enjoyed a slice of tiramisu for dessert and let me tell you, someone stole grandma's recipe. It was packed with espresso, cocoa, creamy whipped cream, just all things EPIC to put it simply. I'd recommend dropping in for vino, the salads, and tiramisu or the chocolate cake, which my husband enjoyed.

Da Remo is known as a favorite haunt of some famous British actors including Sean Connery. The restaurant is a small Italian restaurant near Uxbridge, and is quite the find, particularly for an out of towner. Da Remo should certainly pride itself on the service it provides its guests. We had wonderful service - timely, without oppressing us with constant presence. For a large group that just showed up and surprised them, they handled us nicely and didn't have any problem serving the group and keeping up with our needs. When we had questions, they were good about explaining different menu items and helping us determine what we wanted to order. I had 3 courses with my meal - antipasti, the main course, and dessert. Everything I had was fantastic. The cannoli I ordered was incredibly good - the best I've ever had. My main course was a variant on chicken cordon bleu, and was perfectly prepared and full of flavor. I finished with the cheesecake (not NY style), which made a nice finish to the evening. I had the house red wine with my dinner and was quite pleased - it had a nice bouquet and finish, and paired well with my meal.
