The service is excellent and the food is superb. The Specials on offer are always good and a great choice. The wine that is available is well priced.
What an absolute find. The food was excellent from start to finish, packed full of flavour and the service was friendly and efficient. Busy pretty much all the time, booking is recommended and the atmosphere is lively and fun. Great to come here with friends, families or just for the two of you. Looking forward to repeat visits.
Always friendly atmosphere. Very good food, starters of frittura di pesce beautifully cooked and antipasto sharing plates were awesome. All our mains were well cooked and if there was any complaint it was that there was too much.
Overall enjoyable night and good food. Restaurant felt a bit small and crowded and was very noisy. Food was good but not quite as expected for the price. Cute local restaurant just missing a few finishing touches.
Good food, excellent service. the dining room was quieter than most Italian restaurants, the ambiance and decor were ok. Got given a free drink at the end of the night. A very nice evening.
Attentive staff and superb food. Real taste of Italy . The portions were very hearty and very tasty with a real authentic feel to the whole meal

Lovely sea food. Prawn starter always our first choice. Good choice on specials makes it difficult to choose! Friendly Lovely staff. We come frequently with friends rather than cook at home
The restaurant is very nice and the staff are attentive. The prawn starter was delicious however the calves liver was not quite as I expected. Having said that I will definitely return and try a different main course.
Party for 8. The service was excellent. The food was very tasty (no complaints from anyone) and all at a reasonable price. Will definitely go again.
Excellent service and good food at reasonable prices. Winning combination.Difficult to find fault so why try. Atmosphere was excellent last Saturday but the restaurant emptied quite quickly so we had to party on elsewhere. Always a sign of a good evening.
Wonderful Italian restaurant in Surbiton. Mushroom Ravioli had the best sauce I have ever tasted. Calamari was fresh and great texture. All dishes were well presented. Would definitely go again. Service was attentive and pleasant.
the food is very good. The prawn starter was especially good with a wonderful sauce. The staff are very efficient and helpful. An enjoyable evening
Went for lunch, the service was fast we didn't wait long for our food which was great. I had the Carbonara which was a big plate! I would definitely go back.
Excellent king prawns starter and main courses of lobster totelloni. Yummy desserts of chocolate mousse and panna cotta. Good house wine, friendly service and very reasonable pricing. This is my favourite restaurant in the area; so much better than the chains!
The service you receive from staff is attentive and friendly, the quality of the dishes are superb. It was so nice that all the plates went back empty
As ever a most enjoyable afternoon, with good food, excellent wines and a relaxed atmosphere. I would recommend this small, cozy restaurant to anyone with an interest in Italian food.
Lovely restaurant - I am a regular visitor. Friendly service, food is beautifully cooked and delicious. Good selection of wines for all tastes. Highly recommended.
Warm welcome, lovely atmosphere, and great service throughout our meal. Great choice of food and a specials menu and good wine list. Food was superb and cannot wait to eat there again!
The food and the service was fantastic from start to finish. I am Italian and it was lovely to find an authentic restaurant .. I highly recommend the Italian Taste!
Had not been to the Italian Taste for a few years, soon realised that this had been a big mistake. It is an excellent restaurant. Very authentic, excellent quality food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere.
We were a party of four and had a lovely evening. Great food, a good selection and very attentive service. The place was buzzing. We will be back.
Great little restaurant is Surbiton, food is very delicious and really authentic tasting. Service is fantastic and friendly even when the restaurant is fairly busy. Would definitely recommended to a friend.
lovely food here and staff are nice and helpful. Will definitely go back again to eat here as reasonable price considering the decent food on offer, particularly the specials.
Food and service were as good as usual. The bill was quite large but that was due to one of my children having expensive tastes.
Great food, large portions, friendly staff and surprisingly inexpensive. What more could you ask for. And local to the station so easy to get to.
Probably the friendliest restaurant in Surbiton, serving great food at affordable prices in pleasant surroundings. Family run establishment with excellent, attentive staff. Very highly recommended
The service was good and the staff were fine about the fact that two of our party were half an hour late. The food was delicious and the wine excellent. We all had a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
We went on a Tuesday evening. Excellent food and service. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The menu was extensive and the wine list good. We would recommend it.
Great ambience. The pasta and seafood dishes are probably what I recommend the most. She obviously means well, but a couple of times I've been, one waitress was so friendly that it almost felt intrusive. A great local restaurant. A pity it doesn't open on a Monday though.
One of our favourite restaurants. Food is always good and the menu is varied. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and informal. Best of all, we LOVE Isabella!
Friendly service and generous portions! Made to feel very welcome. Weekly specials and a good selection of fresh fish dishes on the menu. Tables are a bit close together though.
They serve Good food. The waiters made us feel really welcome. There was a Friendly atmosphere. Great value for money. I would not hesitate to go again.

I really couldn't fault the service. There is a good range of choice on the menu and the food was grea. the restaurant has a nice atmosphere and prices are reasonable for the quality of the food. I'll be going back!
It was a birthday dinner and proved a great venue. Delicious food and a great Italian range. Excellent specials. We all had different food and everyone was very pleased. Very welcoming. Definitely on our favourite restaurant list now.
I go to this restaurant frequently and have never been disappointed. As usual the food and atmosphere were great. I particularly recommend the duck with cherries.
Pleasant surroundings, nervous staff and mediocre food. The bruschetta promised a better main course than I got, the flatten chicken, which was bland tasting and unappetising to look at. The wine, Gavi, was not cold enough. All in all a mediocre experience.
There was a great atmosphere in the restaurant which enhanced the dining experience. Additionally, the staff at the Italian taste were incredibly helpful, friendly and cooperative. I would definitely recommend it.
Very Friendly atmosphere and excellent food. But we ordered best wine and had to wait for a long time for food to enjoy with it. Slow service and perhaps some bread on table would help.
Great meal as always!! Service and food we really good and it had a great atmosphere. We were a group of six and everyone was happy with what they ordered. We will be back soon.
We had excellent food with friendly and efficient service in pleasant and comfortable surroundings. Overall very good value and we look forward to further visits.
