Celebrated a birthday during the week, Food was fantastic!!! Atmosphere was brilliant and the Host was such a lovely Gent!!! He really made our visit there!! thank you for a great dinner and fun atmosphere.

Starter was Garlic mushrooms and it was just that. Bunch of boiled mushrooms chopped up in a bowl. Lots of water at the bottom. Tasted nice although there was a lot for a starter. Bruschetta looked nice and was told it tasted delicious. They hadn't got one of the few veggie options I wanted for the main but i went for the four cheese pasta. Again, very basic presentation. Just pasta in a bowl, but it was very tasty. We were told we couldn't have tap water as there was bits in it so we were sold a bottle of water but weren't told we were going to be charged five pound fifty for it! This was too over priced considering it wasn't our fault that the tap water wasn't available. The Server was very nice but at first we weren't sure if he was staff as he just had a scruffy hoodie and jeans on. It is a lovely little place that is one of Swadlincotes hidden treasures. Would recommend you give it a try. Friends had dessert which looked delicious. Lots to choose from and generous portions.

This visit was my first and certainly won't be the last. The food was excellent and very traditional to the owners Italian roots. After eating and experiencing Italian culture this little gem.hits the spot. I would advise booking and they do take away to add ❤️

This is hands down THE place to go in and around Swadlincote for a really special meal. The service is faultless; personalised, warm, welcoming and of the highest standard. The menu is a little slice of Italy and the steaks are perfectly cooked as you request, they are beyond any I’ve had elsewhere (no steak knife needed it’s that succulent). The owners couldn’t do more for you whilst you are visiting, hats off to the chef, this is Swadlincote's little secret. Can’t speak highly enough of this wonderful restaurant. The incredibly high standards we’ve experienced are over multiple visits over many years … and it only gets better each time. Thank you for lots of nice memories and full tummies, we are already looking forward to our next visit!

Brilliant food! Enjoyed our dinner with delicious Italian food! For the first time to Montanaro's! will come again,for sure! Grazie mille!
