What lovely friendly and efficient staff and good food too. We will definitely go again. Perfect for pre-theatre meal or even after an theatre dinner.

We went on the off chance as we were staying down the road. Saturday night, managed to get a table for two. It turns out we were lucky as most of the restaurant was full just after we got there (8.15pm). I had the linguine with seafood. Smokey tasting tomato sauce which, at the first mouthful, seemed odd but it suited the meal. My wife had a pepperoni pizza and green side salad which she enjoyed very much, however, if you dont like spice you'd better avoid this pizza!
Staff were very friendly and efficient.If there is one small complaint it was the frozen desserts but otherwise I would highly recommend.

A more extensive menu, especially with the meat and fish dishes. These come with sautéed potatoes, carrots and broccoli and it's certainly refreshing these days to find the more conventional vegetables on offer. The quality of the food is always excellent. If you're in town, it's worth the extra walk, or if you're on the bus, it's right opposite the station.

My wife and I had a very enjoyable dinner at this good Italian restaurant close to the station in Chelmsford this Saturday evening. The service was great the food delicious and the wine complimented it perfectly, a top night we'll be repeating soon.

I have been to ll Palazzo before a few times and each time the food gets better every time I'm there and the service is fantastic they are welcoming and very helpful. We brought a family member from South Africa and she was very impressed with everything.

It was a nice visit, we live locally, no reservation and we we're accommodated. Food was good but the dessert wasn't homemade. I had the cheesecake and unfortunately it was store bought (maybe tesco opposite?) just take it off the menu because it's cheap and tasteless! Otherwise it was good but the desert ruined an otherwise nice meal

My wife and I just walked in, no reservation.
We were greeted with a warm and friendly smile. We were made to feel welcome. We were not rushed. Nothing was too much.
We chose to share a starter. The main was not brought to the table too quickly, and the food was absolutely delicious.This is our 4th visit.
Highly recommended, and I thought reasonably priced. (spent less than I intended).

It was very busy, luckily we had booked. Steak superb, cheeses excellent. Chilli prawns and scallops. Minestrone soup. Slight variation on our previous choices but equally as delicious. Really reasonable in price must also add. Very professional but friendly. An extremely enjoyable night.

Visited here for dinner with family on Saturday night, staff were friendly, food was hot and portion sizes just right. The crab linguine was a bit spicy for me, but an offer was made without asking for another to be made with less chilli, that was a nice touch.
Nice atmosphere, staff gave a very good level of service but not intrusive, we had the table for the whole evening. Great company, great evening. Visited before and will visit again.

First time visit to this restaurant and it most definitely deserves its reviews. Perfect from start to finish, wonderful friendly staff. Food was exceptional, really tasted like home cooking. Everyone in our party of 5 agreed, from starters through to desserts everything was amazing. Will absolutely be back. What a gem

Visited on Wednesday night for a gathering with colleagues from work, party of ten. Never been here before, easy to find and parking near theatre was helpful and very close.
On entering the restaurant, we were greeted straight away and the offer to take our coats was a nice gesture. Seated at our table and offered a drinks menu while we waited for the others to arrive. Nicely decorated and tables set out so your cramped unlike some restaurants.
For starter, the whole group had garlic bread, which tasted lovely. Next came my chosen main dish, Vitello Saltimbocca. Veal wrapped in parma ham with potatoes and veg of the day, carrots and french beans. Don't normally eat beans but tried them here and they were really nice. The sauce that came with the dinner was delicious. Good presentation of food and tasted so lovely. Dessert was Tartufo Al Limoncello, oh wow so glad I chose this. I would come back to eat all of those things again! Next time need to go with my husband.
Highly recommended and the cost of the food was well worth the money. The staff gave amazing and attentive 10 out of 10.

We live towards the top end of town and this is always our go to restaurant when we go out.
Menu is varied but not too much choice that you are worried about making a wrong decision!!
I always go for the frito misto to start and the pollo milanese for main. Lovely food!
Staff are great as well, give it a go!

What a great meal we had from beginning to end. Really friendly staff. Spotlessly clean. The menu is extensive. Highly recommend the Garlic bread. The minestrone soup was the best I ever tasted totally authentic. The gamberoni were delicious. The linguine salmone was moist and lots of it. The matriciana was excellent with large pieces of spicy ham.
The prices were extremely reasonable and the draught beer was fab at £5.50 with lime.
Could not fault anything.
Our new favourite restaurant. Surpassed the New London hands down.
Highly recommend a try.

A late review! However, 9 of us came for our work Christmas meal/ do at Il Palazzo.
What a great night! The food was absolutely superb! Everyone enjoyed all their starters, mains and desserts. I had a filet steak, which was cooked to perfection.
The service was fantastic, all the members of the team were attentive, friendly and helpful when asking re wine choices! etc.We had a really great experience at Il Palazzo, from the food to the service to the atmosphere. We was not felt rushed and we will definitely return here again.
Thank you !!
