Amazing food, and good service. I had lunch, some cocktails and desserts with two friends, one of them Italian, and she said everything was fantastic. We loved the starters, some of them with smoked salmon and mozzarella cheese, others with gratin aubergines, absolutely delicious! The pistachio dessert was lovely, with authentic Italian ice cream. Highly recommended!

I booked out the upstairs area for 15 of us for my birthday , where do I begin, the owner of Lago , he’s so kind and attentive as soon as you walk in, the food is always incredible and tasteful, Filipino our server was absolutely fantastic , there was never a glass empty or a dirty plate left, he was so efficient, social & kind the whole evening, such a skill! I highly recommend coming here for a date night or a birthday meal, it has never disappointed. Thankyou so much for making my evening just perfect ! Gracie x

Great to go back to LagodiComo Bar and Restaurant and we should go back more often. The service, food, wine choice and atmosphere never disappoints. I tucked in to a generous helping of fried calamari to start, followed by the veal chop milanese, both of which were delicious. As it was a celebration, we pushed the boat out on the wines, with a crisp Gavi that went perfectly with our chosen appetisers. Wanting something more full bodied, we went for a knockout from Puglia, but I forgot to note the name. Overall, you can eat very reasonably here as the pasta and wines are very fairly priced. Genuine Italian food, super genuine service by Matteo and team: highly recommended.

Food you cannot forget. The most freshest calamari and pasta dishes. Hard to choose which dish to have. Wine was reasonably priced compared to other restaurants in the town. Service was excellent and the restaurant had a stylish outside eating area and a cosy intimate restaurant. Jelly beans at the end of the meal was fun!!!! Will be returning.

If you are living locally or you are just visiting Tonbridge Wells, LagodiComo Bar and Restaurant is a place that must be on your list if you like Italian cuisine. Me and my wife had a lovely dinner recently in this place and it was an amazing experience. The restaurant has a great location, very close to High St, with a lot of places to visit around . There are plenty of parking places in the nearby area, we only walked 5min from the car. The moment we stepped in we were welcomed with a friendly positive attitude by the staff and we were amazed by the beauty of the place with lovely interior design, lights, shades and colours. The restaurant is spotless in terms of cleanliness. We served dinner and the food, cooked with fresh ingredients, was so delicious and authentic. The portions are not very big, the chef concentrates more on the quality, flavor, taste and elegance of the plate then quantity. So if you are very hungry and you want to eat the American way big portions this place is not for you, plenty in the area. On our visit we interacted with a few members of the staff and all of them were very friendly, eager to help, acting with professionalism making our visit an experience hard to remember. There is a wide variety of wines to choose from, amazing cocktails and premium Italian beer. If I have something to complain about, this is absolutely personal, I absolutely dislike the idea of service charge. I think it is quite disrespectful and redundant towards the customers as this is the main objective of a restaurant , to serve people. When the same bottle of wine that I can buy it from the local store with £50 you are selling it with £100 this is your services charge. Although I do believe in tipping, the tip should be minimum between 5-20%, should be suggested on the bill and the tip should reflect the satisfaction you had , it shouldn't be mandatory. But this is what I think and in our case we have been very satisfied. As a summary, the place is great, the staff is amazing and I am definitely recommending this place

Visited for the first time last Saturday. We were a large party comprising 6 children and 8 adults including 1 vegan, 1 vegetarian, 1 nut allergy and 1 fat free. All our dietary requirements were met and the food was delicious. The service was attentive without being intrusive and the 1 mistake (2 missing sides) was quickly remedied with an apology from the owner as well. The surprise birthday cake was served with a smile. All in all an excellent evening and I will definitely return when my diet is back to normal although making a choice might be difficult!

We had the best lunch , and have many times before! But this weekend was just fabulous. Service and food were gorgeous. Every meal, table of 9 had the best meals, with empty plates! Thank you all. Your terrace is lovely! Thank you!
