This wonderful Italian is a small family run business that has gone from strength to strength in…read morethe few years it has been open. Inside it seats around 30 and is decorated in a modern style that still manages to be warm and welcoming. We visited recently for a meal for 4 on a Friday evening. The restaurant was nearly full. All our starters and mains were served in a timely manner and were delicious. I ordered the scallops and duck and both were brilliant. This is not a mega cheap place but it is worth the money charged. We spent around £35 per head with drinks. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming.

What a gem hidden away - After hearing really good reviews & feedback from friends that have…read morevisited this restaurant, we decided to pay a visit a couple of weeks ago and were certainly not disappointed. It doesn't look much from the outside but from the moment you go in, you are made to feel at home. A clean modern restaurant. All our food was served promptly, and was devoured just as promptly - all excellent. I have visited many "Italian" Restaurants both in Italy & here in the UK and I have to say this is certainly in my top ten! Good food made from quality ingredients, with excellent service is never cheap (if cheap is what you want, there are many pub restaurants to choose from) La Nonna is reasonably priced for the standard of food & service you receive, you can pay a lot more elsewhere for a lot less! Well worth a visit

Prezzo is part of the relatively new complex in Swadlincote, that also includes branches of Costa,…read moreArgos and an excellent local cinema. An impressive looking restaurant, fronted with large glass windows wrapped around a rotunda area. Inside the space is equally impressive, tables to suit all sizes of party, from cosy window seats, to more romantic tables at the top of the restaurant. To the rear of restaurant at the bottom of the rotunda, are tables with a fantastic view of the surrounding area. Tables are amply spaced apart, the whole atmosphere of the restaurant feels comfortable and relaxed. Menu wise, a great variety of different dishes from pizza's to pasta, fish dishes to steak. Meals to suit to different appetites and budgets. We have dined here several times, the lobster pasta being particularly flavoursome, but on this occasion we had a voucher for 2 for 1 on main courses. Although some of the menu like VIP pizzas, steaks etc, were excluded from the deal, there was still plenty to choose from. I had a Vesuvio pizza, a fantastic pizza, very spicy, resplendent with sweet riquito peppers and pepperoni, whilst my wife had a light pasta, which comprised of a smaller dish of pasta, with an accompanying salad, and a complimentary dressing. All in all two cracking main courses. You have to have a dessert, it would be rude not to! A little on the expensive side, but the honeycomb crunch cheesecake, was delightfully light and flavoursome. My wife had one of their combo desserts, single chocolate cream filled profiterole, with an accompanying coffee, perfect. The quality of the food, efficient, unobtrusive service and a great ambience, make for a winning combination.

What a deplorable experience this evening - here's hoping that regional management sees this review…read moreand remedies the situation - we do not plan to return that is for sure! Been there several times over the last 2 years, forgot to write a review for some reason but our experience varies from very pleasant (4 stars) to just OK largely dependent on the staff member serving us - one lovely server (Polish I believe) was outstanding - friendly, warm and fun. So what happened tonight, Saturday Feb 1 2020? We arrived at 4:20 looking to have a simple meal before going to the movie theater (Odeon) next door where Inhad already bought tickets for the 5:45 show. So far so good - and the restaurant was virtually empty. BUT the server tells us they have staff problems, 2 chefs had recently quit leaving only one who looked to be in a foul mood (do you want a chef with an attitude fixing a meal for you? Me neither!). Not only that - but despite the sea of empty they had some reservations later and it would take 45 minutes to an hour to serve us (really!?!?!). So guess what - we had no option but to walk out! Never again at this Prezzo- pitiful!! Review #9 2020
