Italian Restaurants in Pinner

“Just visited for the 1st time - food was fresh and tasty and the service was amazing . It’ was my birthday we didn’t want a fuss but they bought over desserts with a candle how lovely”

“Visited Zaza in Pinner for the first time, the restaurant is bigger then it looks. I had the calamari for a starter it was delicious and a very big portion, you could share it especially as I had the lamb shank on mash potato for my main. The lamb was cooked to perfection, so tender and flavoursome. My only suggestion would be the gravy could be served in a small gravy boat/jug as some people would like more gravy. The food was amazing, I would recommend these dishes. My friends had the goats cheese tart for a starter and then one had the grilled chicken salad, which I've previously had at the Ruislip Zaza, good choice. My other friend had the king prawns which looked juicy and she said they tasted delicious. We were all very satisfied with the food and experience we had a very nice bottle of Pinot Girgio wine. I would highly recommend visiting Zaza in Pinner, the staff gave good customer service so a very pleasant evening was had my all.”

“From the moment we stepped into Dona Theresa, we knew we had chosen the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary. This isn't just a restaurant; it's a slice of Italy right here in Pinner, where every detail, from the relaxed ambiance to the incredible service, feels like a warm embrace.

The menu is a testament to authentic Italian cuisine, offering a variety of options that made our choices delightfully difficult. We started with three magnificent starters, and while we were tempted to order more, we wisely saved room for our mains. Each dish was a masterpiece: the Funghi Stilton, with its creamy mushrooms and gratinated cheese, was rich and savory; the Pera al Forno was a delectable surprise, with its baked pear and deep-fried camembert; and the Gamberboni Frascati, featuring succulent tiger prawns, was bursting with flavor from the chilli and garlic sauce. Each bite was mouth-watering and delectable.

For our main courses, I chose the Penne alla Siciliana, a dish so super tasty I instantly knew from initial sight I would love it. My wife ordered the Penne Giardiniera, and when she requested to switch the pasta to linguini, the staff accommodated her without hesitation, showing a level of care that truly stood out. Our meal culminated in a delightful dessert of pistachio ice cream and an unexpected anniversary surprise (that stemmed from my son during him booking for us) - the owner, Manuel, had arranged for an exquisite, complimentary apple pie with a firework and ceiling lighting to match, a treat he had cleverly gleaned was a personal favourite of mine during our conversations. The pie itself was superb, with a perfect, balanced hint of cinnamon.

The service we received was nothing short of exceptional. We were lovingly looked after by three incredible staff members. Manuel, the astute and attentive owner, ensured we felt incredibly well cared for and special. Paula took the most beautiful photos of us with great patience and care, making sure they perfectly captured the romantic Venice-themed wall painting in the background. And our waitress, Georgia, looked after us with bright smiles and genuine pleasure, ensuring everything was served efficiently and to our utmost satisfaction and comfort.

The entire evening was elevated by the fantastic atmosphere. The ambience, sight and sounds were relaxed and genuinely Italian, and the music—a perfect mix of classic Italian tunes, including the wonderful Luciano Pavarotti—was well-balanced and never overpowering. It was clear that this is a popular spot, with Manuel greeting many of the customers like old friends, which only added to the warm, family-like feel.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience to celebrate our anniversary. Dona Theresa truly delivered an evening of authentic, passionate food and service that we will cherish. We look forward to returning soon!”

“Family run restaurant. Lovely people. Very kind. Catered well for our son with nut allergy. It was his birthday. They were very careful in advising and choosing. Surprise free birthday cake for him too. Nice experience.”

“Attended a private party there and have not been to Dona Theresa before. The staff were amazing and obviously very experienced by the way they dealt with the service from beginning to end. Now for the import part, the food was good. It is no Scalini but if that was my local Italian, would be content with DT without a shadow of doubt.”
