The only way to describe Ravello’s food is perfect! We went a few weeks ago, the food, the service and the atmosphere was fantastic. There was 7 of us and we many of the starters, the few that stood out were the mussels, the black pudding stack and the calamari rings. All of the starters were excellent! The mains were once again outstanding the steaks were cooked to perfection. The pasta’s were delicious especially the carbonara! The prawns that were on the surf and turf were incredible. The desserts were delicious as well. We all had a great evening and would definitely recommend a visit!

Ravello Ristorante in Lanchester is an absolute gem and easily one of the finest Italian restaurants in the area. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with warm hospitality, a cosy atmosphere, and the wonderful aroma of freshly cooked Italian dishes. The menu is full of authentic favourites, beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. Every dish we ordered—from the starters to the desserts—was bursting with flavour. The pasta tasted homemade, the sauces were rich and fresh, and the ingredients were clearly top quality. The staff were attentive, friendly, and genuinely cared about the dining experience. Ravello Ristorante is the perfect place for family meals, celebrations, or a special night out.

First time here and won’t be my last, the restaurant is vibrant and busy with a romantic atmosphere. The food was incredible and service good. 2 minor suggestions are you should get a wafer with your ice cream and a biscotti with your coffee but other than that perfect. Highly recommend the tiramisu. Parking nearby to the rear

Dining at Ravello Ristorante is always a pleasure. The interior is cosy and stylish, creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxing meal. The food is consistently amazing—fresh ingredients, authentic flavours, and beautifully balanced dishes. The pizza bases are crisp and delicious, the pasta is cooked perfectly, and the desserts are irresistible. The staff are attentive and make you feel welcome throughout the entire visit. This is a restaurant that truly understands great customer service and fantastic food.

We came here yesterday for a family dinner as the Greek restaurant we normally go to was unexpectedly closed. My dad does not like change but this place was so great he embraced it. The food is really good, loads of choice and plenty for vegetarians – they also make adjustments (I had carbonara without meat). The staff are outstanding though, really attentive, nothing is a bother, really fast service even though it was busy. Will definitely come again.

An excellent lunch from this family run village Italian. No wine glass this time because it was a family lunch… and only half a plate of pasta because it was so good I launched into it immediately and only remembered to take a photo later
My gluten free pasta with vodka and shrimp sauce was perfect. Just the way I like it. Goldilocks pasta (not too firm not too soft) which anyone used to gluten free cooking will know is no mean feat.
My family members enjoyed all their dishes too. Risotto, pizza and a couple of other pasta options all went down well. Service was friendly and swift. Presentation great on lovely big plates. Exceeded my expectations

Ravello Ristorante delivers a truly unforgettable dining experience. Every dish we tried was cooked to perfection and full of amazing flavours. The pasta dishes were rich and comforting, the pizzas were delicious with the perfect crust, and the desserts tasted homemade and fresh. The customer service was excellent, with staff who were polite, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. This restaurant never disappoints and continues to exceed expectations with every visit.

If you’re looking for an Italian restaurant that delivers quality, flavour, and excellent service every single time, Ravello Ristorante is the place to go. We recently visited for a family gathering, and everything was perfect—from the warm welcome to the final dessert. The dishes were full of authentic Italian flavours, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. The restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere, and the staff looked after us so well. Without doubt, one of the best restaurants in Lanchester.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Lovely prawn cocktail starters followed by roasts with fantastic yorky puds along with the best bottle of Primitivo I have sampled in a long while . Top level friendly and efficient service. My first visit but it won’t be the last.
