Padrino in Southend-on-Sea

This is a true gem at Southend on sea.The food is delicious, the service is fantastic and the prices are reasonable.It ticks all the right boxes.The roast pork with crackling was merely in the mouth.The staff are so lovely, singing happy birthday to any customers who are celebrating their birthdays.I think every time we visit Southend on sea, we'll be making a visit

We were lucky enough to get a late booking here Sunday before the James Arthur concert at the cliffs and we had the best Italian meal and experience that we have had. The waitress was so friendly and made our night, so knowledgeable about the menu / specials and just couldn't do enough for us. I have already told about 10 people I know that they have to go here and we will be making an effort to visit here regularly. Great food, great service, excellent prices and an overall brilliant experience. Thank you so much for giving us the best meal we've had.

Amazing food, was hot and delicious.Amazing service, was fast and friendly.Amazing price, £12 for a very good selected menu.Vegan options, gluten-free options.5/5, incredible restaurant

Had a great pre theatre a la carte meal, my wife had scallops to start, with spaghetti marinara as mains, I had wild boar raffioli as a starter with rack of lamb as main. Finished off with Cheesecake all tasty and really enjoyed it

Popular Italian, friendly and efficient staff, tasty and generous portions of food

We love this restaurant. Such a great way to start the evening before a show at Cliffs. The staff are amazing, service very good and the food consistently tasty. Couldn't ask for anything else!

Had a lovely meal here 2 weeks ago, food tasted great, had no faults at all. The staff go above and beyond. I had gone to celebrate two friends bday’s and without asking, they brought 2 complimentary ice creams with candles and sang happy birthday! Can’t thank them enough for making the night special! Defo recommend

We went for Christmas for restaurant. They said we have to pay 70£ for each because of Christmas. The way of they talked rude just. They didn't talk to us nice. And out side of the restaurant we saw 13.90£ for Christmas menu. We called them back to understand to make sure and understand the things the person who answered the phone i asked first talk to someone who can speak Italian language. She said no body. After when I asked her about outside why they published saying 13.90£. She cut the line to face rudely saying there is nothing published like that. We are Italian. But we met rude people. Do not know how to speak to people.

We popped by here and it was full - but we managed to get takeaway. Staff were polite and helpful, and we received our food quickly. Food was really tasty and whole experience made us want to roll down the hill into the sea - would recommend 👍

I have been here with my family and we have had a very very beautiful stay. We enjoy our dinner and everything has been special,from the antipasto to the dessert i highly recommend this restaurant Very good food and quality of food.
