Food is simple Italian done well
Lasagner just come on it own would recommend putting at least a garnish on it to cut thought the richness.
Brushetta was lovely just needed a balsamic dip.

Great price for what you get beats the chains hand down for quality.
Would go again.

My wife and I turned up without a reservation.
Staff were polite, cheerful and attentive, but not overbearing.
Food was brought out at decent intervals and not too quickly.
Food was delicious and good portions.
Our 4th visit. And each visit we found to be consistent in service and food.
Clean environment and a nice atmosphere.

I'm a bit behind with this review but nevertheless I wanted to add something to the site. We've been here several times, always before going to the theatre, and it doesn't disappoint. Food is good, staff are lovely & the ambiance us nice.

We visited this restaurant tonight for dinner and although the food and service were good our table seemed to have been wedged in, it seemed they were maximising bookings at the expense of customer satisfaction and were I to visit again I'd ask for a specific table. I'm not normally this picky but the table we had was behind a post and in the middle of two Isles, so people passing on both sides throughout the evening which we found distracting.

Il Palazzo offers the high standards associated with good Italian restaurants being especially handy for users of the Civic Theatre and Cinema being practically opposite this venue. They offer special theatre going deals. The staff have winning Italian ways being eager to please. They offer a wide choice of Italian/Mediterranean meals and as said have never had a meal here less than enjoyable. By Chelmsford standards this is an upmarket eatery and adding on wine/drinks, starters, dessert and coffee could leave a hole in the pocket but then isnt quality worth paying for.

A return visit to Il Palazzo after a bit of a break. Greeted on arrival when the restaurant was really busy. Excellent attentive service. We all went for a Main followed by a Dessert. The cleared plates told the story. A really enjoyable evening and we shall not leave it quite so long before returning.

We have eaten at this restaurant on numerous occasions and can honestly say we have never had a bad meal. Birthdays, family get togethers and today a pre theatre meal have all been perfect. The restaurant even accommodated us for my daughters hen doo when they opened especially for our party. There is no best dish as everything I have eaten here has been delicious. If you like Italian food you'll love IL Piazzo. Surely this is the best Italian restaurant in our region.

We went for our second visit in one month. The first time was on a Friday and had a wonderful meal. The second was last night just before the theatre and once again we had a lovely meal. The staff are always so helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend this restaurant

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).

We didn’t book but popped in on the off chance. Didn’t know this place existed. Turned out to be a great choice. Food was excellent and the staff were very attentive and professional. Will definitely make another visit
