Called in at this restaurant today for lunch. No one else there. Very smart and clean.
Waiter welcomed us immediately. Food really reasonably priced - I had the spinach and mushroom fritata and my friend had the vegetarian pizza. Proper linen napkins. Food great and fresh. Waiter just the right amount attention - would definitely go there again.And as Mark D of Mother and son lunch said 'wash rooms excellent clean'.

we are fans of Olio's both in Writtle and the town center however we decided to give II Palazzo a try and we were nicely surprised, the food was lovely and portions were good and the service was efficient and friendly. If your up that end of town or fancy a quick bite when you come off the train then I would very much recommend you pop in.

Second time we have been here as our previous experience was very good. We were celebrating our Anniversary and like before we were greeted at the door by a very welcoming waiter. As we were eating early evening in the Restaurant it was quite, so not a lot of atmosphere but had lovely background music playing. We would think that later evening and weekends the atmosphere would be very good The menu was extensive and the food we choose was lovely again with excellent waiter service. Altogether a good evening.

I have to say I was very impressed with the menu, the prices and the customer service. The Italian options are very extensive. My meatballs were delicious. My veal was extremely tender with all the side cooked aldente. No complaints from around the table, beautiful white house wine and nice to see an alternative to Peroni on draft. My favourite restaurant in Chelmsford, not that I have tried many!

We went to il palazzo today, 4 adults 2 children, and I have to say it was a lovely evening. The staff are attentive without being intrusive, tables were cleared quickly, the wine was topped up at the right time all the food was delivered with excellent timing. Please keep in mind this was all on a Saturday night in a busy restaurant . The food was of very good quality, cooked very well with lots of Italian flavour . In all a very pleasant night with lots of food at a reasonable price, as an italian I would recommend anyone thinking of going to do so without hesitation . Very well done and thank you il palazzo for a lovely night .

There was nothing disastrously wrong , but it could have all been better . the calamari was under cooked and could have done with 30sconeds longer in the fryer, we had asked for olives before our starters but they never turned up . My crab salad was nice but you had to play hunt the crab as it was all in very small peace's through out the salad leaves. The main course was also brought out within what seemed 2 minuets of us finishing our starter, where a 10 minuet gap would have been more fitting.

We tried Il Palazzo, Chelmsford for the first time yesterday. Table for 4 on an early booking at 6.15pm. Not in a great part of Chelmsford but if you’re being dropped off and collected, that’s not a problem. Food was good with a wide choice available, service OK but maybe lacking enthusiasm and restuarant was very spacious with plenty of room between tables. (unlike Olio’s in town which is cramped).
The only letdown was our waiter insisted I could not put the gratuity on my card with the bill. Cash only he said. Like many people I don’t carry a lot of cash nowadays and so I explained this and left what I could which was about half of what I would have tipped had I been able to use my card. On our way out the (apparent)manager asked me how things were, I told him good but consider changing the cash only tipping policy, and he told me we were able to put the tip on the card if we wanted to! So I left with the feeling that our waiter had not been not honest with us. The management should address this tipping issue so customers are clear on what they can and can’t do. Apart from that, the whole experience was quite good and we will return.

Good choice for my wife's birthday meal. Nice spacious italian, atmospheric, decor a bit cheesy but look beyond this cos the food's good. Sardinian fish stew was really good and my wife's veal beat her!
