Ramsgate, Italian Restaurant Guide

Herald of the new, cool, foodie-friendly Margate scene, this Old Town venue (Grace Dent is a fan) showcases the produce of Foglianise, where co-owner Simona Di Dio’s family runs a farm; the food (meatballs, caponata, gnocchi, etc.) is “delicious as are the wines” – and if you want to learn to pimp your pasta, they also run the next-door Margate Cookery School.

2023 Review: “A great neighbourhood Italian with a great view of the sea”. The pizzas are “delectable” (handmade in the Neapolitan pizza oven) and there’s also a focus on seafood and pasta dishes, plus regular daily specials.
