We have been to Il Pallazzo numerous times. Mostly we go as a family after going to the Civic Theatre. The food is always delicious and the staff are very attentive and friendly.

Food was amazing! Just a little too loud as it's quite a small place

We have eaten here before and we will definitely eat here again. Lovely food, excellent service, very friendly staff. Perfect before for a trip to the theatre or to London. We ate here before going to a concert at the O2. Much better than joining the queues there. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Il Palazzo and we will be back soon.

Great variety on the Lunchtime Special menu. My friend and I shared two different starters for variety. Super fresh tomatoes and mozzarella.
One main course Tuna salad, colourful and filling. I had pepperoni pizza a real treat as a gluten free option.
Great advice from the waiting staff to point me to that one.
House White wine and coffee to finish. Less than £30 p.h. (don't forget service charge not included). But service was attentive, perfect.
This was my second visit....will be back.

Three of us enjoyed a wonderful Saturday afternoon lunch at Il Palazzo. From the outset the two gentlemen that served us were friendly, charming and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The food (pork, sea bass and veal dishes) were absolutely superb, excellently cooked and presented, along with being good value for money. Thank you to all the Il Palazzo Team - we are very much looking forward to returning!

OUTSTANDING linguine granchio e gamberetti! Every mouthful of this crab and prawn pasta dish was perfection. I started the meal with their traditional prawn cocktail which was also good. This restaurant has a family run feel and clearly regular clientele who return time and again. It’s a popular haunt for theatre goers and visiting performers alike - highly recommend a visit if you’re passing through Chelmsford!

Lovely food and service. Great for a lively pre theatre meal or a little later for a more relaxed atmosphere. A good range of choices on the menu.

Quite simply excellent! A lovely cosy premises with an authentic Italian feel. The food was mouthwatering, I had the Spaghetti Amatriciana which I would definitely recommend. This was highly flavourful without being overly saucy and came in a very satisfying portion. Please don't skip dessert either as there were many choices here plus the specials board obviously from which I had a delectable chocolate ganache tart. Very well priced for the quality I thought, there are numerous chain restaurants that charge more for a lesser meal! Had a great experience here, compliments to the whole team!

I was in this beautiful place last night and I have very nice dishes.The food was amazing.And the staff very friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant.I was sitting near the the window and near us was sitting a table of 7 people.They were very rude with the staff and with the owner as well. They spoke very rudely to the staff and their behavior left much to be desired. The owner should take them out for what they did. The staff was very friendly and spoke very nicely to them but their behavior left much to be desired. People like them should not be allowed in the restaurant.

Just went here for a lovely belated Birthday/Valentines meal. Was greeted and looked after very attentively. Food came at perfect intervals and was absolutely delicious very good prices too. Vibe of the restaurant was great, they were busy which is always a good sign but not crowded. All staff friendly and courteous, would definitely recommend and return again.

This restaurant offers an impressive range of Italian dishes that are not only delicious but also reasonably priced, making it a delightful experience for the taste buds and the wallet. The quality of the food is commendable, with each dish being presented as a good sized portion

The staff are friendly and attentive, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere despite the bustling environment. It's worth noting that the restaurant was very busy during my visit on a Saturday night which is an encouraging sign of its popularity and the quality of its offerings. However, this also means it can get a bit noisy, mostly due to the lively crowd.

Overall, Il Palazo is a restaurant that delivers a satisfying culinary experience with its excellent food and hospitable service. It's a place I would happily visit again especially for pre theatre as it is very close to the Chelmsford Theatre.
