Rastelli's Pizzeria — Restaurant in Great Britain

The pizzas were definitely not Italian style, definitely felt we were eating soggy/microwave pizza They forgot my dish, they mentioned this was "normal" and apologized. If you think this is "normal", then you're definitely an amateur business/restaurant Would give it 0 stars if I could, but that's not possible. I'll give this one star to the wine

If you're in a rush and need to fill up your stomach with something, then this place should do the trick. If you want authentic Italian food, avoid this place. Other restaurants we went to seem to think that Caffe Italia is the much better Italian restaurant, so would definitely check them out :)

EDIT: We definitely ate in your restaurant, we came on Friday 30th May. Our reservation was at 9:15, sat at 9:20, group of 6 boys. We ordered pizzas, and I ordered Pasta Alla Matriciana. The waitress who served us was a blonde lady. Actually, we were one of the last people to leavet he restaurant on that day.

It's OK if you don't want to improve, you can reject my review and continue the way you're serving your customers. I just want to make sure that tourists who visit this place get an honest review, hence I have provided better alternatives. Thank you and have an...

Ate here on 16/08/23. Service was very good and the lady who served us was very polite and helpful. Sadly, that’s where the pleasure ended.

I’ve been a regular scooter to Italy., Italian restaurants in London, Bath, Bristol etc. This Boewness take on Italian is best avoided.

I’d spotted the pizzas on the way in. They looked terrible. We had a garlic bread with our pasta dishes - it was the same frozen based pizza base used on the pizzas. Tough, bland - terrible. If you really want a pizza the place three doors down is far better and the Tap House at the bottom of town do amazing pizzas.

The pasta dishes came out as if they had all been chucked in a big oven and blasted. It was molten hot. My wife’s carbonara was tasteless and thick - not light and seasoned like it should be. My cannelloni was dry on the inside but did have a nice sauce. Couldn’t help but think this was just a packet from somewhere like Costco. The Spaghetti Bolognaise my daughter had was tasty enough, but there’s no way they’d prepared this. It too lacked seasoning.

The worst meal out I’ve had in a long time. And I eat out a lot. Shame, as the staff on the floor work hard. Looks like it’s profit over...

We arrived late in Bowness and needed somewhere to eat. Being as Italian is a favourite food we looked around and cam across Rastelli's. Convenient and local. Unfortunately though it was rammed. We asked about a table for 2 and were politely told that it would be around 0930hrs. Current time was 2000. After declining to see if we could find something else we decided to go back and book, everywhere was full, Saturday night etc. The girl who I spoke to asked us to wait in the bar area because may be able to help. She did and thank you very much, wish I got your name. We sat down and ordered a great meal. Basically 1 x special pizza...very warm as I was advised, garlic cheese pizza bread, garlic mushrooms and 1 x lasagne. 2 glasses of Peroni lager and one bottle house red. Total bill £74. Cut to the chase the food was exceptional and so much so we booked a table for the Sunday evening too. The speed of service and the staff are one of the best we have encountered, there wasn't anything more they could have done for us. We're back home now but would definitely be back again soon. Great food and service guys, keep it up. Well...
