Open Again! – At last Giacomos is back open. This is a truly a first class, fine dining restaurant , every bit as good as the best Authentic Italian Restaurant,… read more ‘anywhere in the World’. The atmosphere is superb, the staff are first class, they were welcoming, attentive, friendly and professional, from the moment we arrived until we departed, as well fed diners. Giacomos is an hours drive from our home, but well worth it. The menu always has exciting options and the quality of the food is unbeatable. The wine selection is extensive and sensibly priced. Temperatures were taken upon arrival and Social Distancing was observed, yet managed to not interfere with our enjoyment of the evening. Tank you All for a Great Dining Experience.

Lovely evening – We had a lovely evening at Giacomos after a long absence due to the Pandemic, on arrival our temperatures were taken, the Restaurant was busy with a very warm atmosphere,… read more all service was impeccable. & all staff were wearing mask/visors with much attention to all the precautions to be taken. We enjoyed a glass of Prosecco and Olives were provided whilst we waited for menus & 1st course. We chose Arancini and Calamari to start, followed by King Prawns cooked in Prosecco and Fillet Steak with Gorgonzola, accompanied by a bottle of Pinot Blush, all of it was delicious with no complaints. We were not offered dessert but were too full anyway and due to the 10pm closure, we quickly finished with Espresso coffees. A most enjoyable experience, thank you

Bellissimo – Been to Giacomo’s several times and never been disappointed. Last week and tonight tried the takeaway service. I like cooking so like to think I am a relatively good judge… read more of food and very often get disappointed eating out. Well I can tell you, this is the best take out food my husband and I have had. We even ordered extra to freeze to give me a night or two off in this isolation period. Definitely going back fir more, you are missing a treat if you don’t try. Just one 5hing, I hardly ever write reviews but feel Giacomo’s thoroughly deserve it. Well done to all. Vanessa and Patrick

Lunch was a delightful surprise – My wife and I had been to Giacomo’s well before the pandemic and the visit had not encouraged us to return. However, this time we were invited guests to a… read more lunch party and it was a delightful surprise to really enjoy the service, ambience and food. My brother was the host and he treated our small family group of 6 to Bollinger Special Cuvee champagne on arrival at 12noon (the restaurant had sensibly suggested a 12noon start rather than 12.30pm to ensure good service).
The menu was full of popular dishes that found favour with everyone. Perhaps the best was the surprise bowl of tempura battered fresh jumbo prawns delivered to the table as an antipasto for all. Eaten with a squeeze of lemon they were crisp, flavourful and simply delicious and enough for 4 or 5 each. Could not have been bettered at a Michelin star restaurant in London!
I had the Shetland mussels. Large fleshy and fresh steamed with garlic, white wine, parsley, tomatoes with and a hint of fresh chilli. The remaining tomato broth with slivers of onion and fennel was rich and unctuous – a great change from the mariniere version. The ladies enjoyed the Crab & Avocado Crostini made with lemon-seasoned crushed avocado with a touch of tabasco and Worcestershire sauce lavished on to Apulian toasted bread topped with handpicked Brixham white crab meat.
For my main course, I chose the Fegato alla Veneziana – calves liver pan fried with sage, onions, white wine on a bed of creamy mash with crispy pancetta and a side of the restaurant’s famous zucchine fritte. More wonderfully light and crisp tempura batter encasing small pieces of courgette.
By the time the pudding trolley was trundled across the restaurant, most of us were feeling quite full but my brother, game to the finish, had the sticky and sweet rum babas and the birthday girl had a slice of cheesecake which arrived with a candle.
This was a marvellous lunch, professionally presented and served and I would not now hesitate to return. Well done to all at Giacomos.

Traditional – Traditional Italian restaurant complete with white tablecloths and dessert trolley. The meat and fish in its raw state were also brought to the table. There was plenty of choice. The… read more main of king prawns was tasteless which was a shame. However,the salted caramel cheesecake was excellent. As with many restaurants I find the starters and desserts are always the best. Good atmosphere, fairly expensive.

Not worth the expense! – Pleasant atmosphere and food was nice, but complete rip-off prices for basic Italian food so very disappointed!

We ordered two sea bass, one – We ordered two sea bass, one lasagne and one beef stroganoff from Giacomo’s take away service and all dishes were amazing, well presented as a takeaway and as delicious as… read more if we were eating in the restaurant. The only disappointment was we that we didn’t receive the superb waiter/waitress service and Giacomo’s exuberance and friendly attention during the meal. It’s a pity he couldn’t serve it to us in our home 😁. Good job Giacomo.

Not bad at all – Food was actually fairly reasonable for what we had, and it was all delicious and tasted fresh. My only gripe was the speed at which my wine was constantly… read more topped up made me quite merry on the way home. Staff couldn’t be friendlier though. We will return without doubt.

In fine form! – Great lunch at Giacomo’s today. Greeted at the door with hand sanitiser and a temperature check, it was instantly clear that Giacomo’s are taking Covid seriously. All the team were… read more masked and attention to hygiene was right on point. Food was fabulous! My Dad had crab to start followed by liver, I had melon and prosciutto followed by veal. Everything was immaculately prepared, super fresh and delivered delicate and vibrant flavours. Lemon tart for desert rounded off a great experience. Top notch.

Nothing SHORT of perfect – During the day I recieved a welcome text confirming of our table reservation. Dress code was mentioned which I scanned over. Very hot day so wore smart shorts. When arrived… read more the waitress said you can’t where shorts but said she would check, totally my fault. However chef/owner came out, made light of it and guided us to our table. The food, wine and service was fantastic, really fantastic. When the waiter presented us with the bill he said we have only charged you £50 for the shorts, great touch and cracked me up.

Quality assured. Service excellent – We regularly eat at Giacomos. Our favourite restaurant in the Sevenoaks area. The food is fabulous Italian, no nonsense and first class . Over the years we have eaten here… read more we have never had a course which was any less than delicious. The wines too are very good the house fiano and Giacomos prestige red are top rate. The staff are always friendly and happy to engage in conversation when they sense it is appreciated.
The prices have moved with the times but we find it still offers great value for money.
A lovely real Italian restaurant with great food which is always busy.
We will continue to visit whilst standards are maintained.

Food very good, staff superb – Our meal was very good but the evening was made by great service from a chap and Marianna – even the chef on his tour was charming. We had… read more prawns, timbales and beef carpaccio for starters. Our mains were ravioli of the day, veals and a well-served liver. Plenty of puds to chose from and a good wine. Marianna suggested a wine from her local Puglia, it did not disappoint and she even found me fennel for my salad. Great evening.

Our first visit but it won’t be our last! – We visited for the first time with friends on a Friday night and we were all absolutely delighted! Fairly full but a nice little buzz about the place. Recommended… read more as somewhere halfway between our homes we were greeted very warmly by the staff and that level of service continued throughout the evening. For starters we had a mozzarella and tomato salad and some prawns fried in batter with a chilli sauce. For main course three of us had the steak cooked with Gorgonzola and Rum and it was delicious. My wife had the king prawns and found them beautiful and quite filling. The dessert trolley looked very appetising but only one of us partook, thoroughly enjoying a lovely apple tart. Coffees and a reasonably priced bottle of Gavi washed the meal down well! This may have been our first visit but it won’t be our last
