La Favorita

Fab little italian restaurant serving classic italian at very reasonable prices. the staff were friendly. i had tagliatelle mariana which was tasty. there is parking quite near.

Hidden gem in loughborough high street. this place has amazing authentic italian food. going into the resteruant you can smell how amazing the food is. the decor is very morden and welcoming. they can cater for halal options like they did for us prior to visiting them. finally thank you for looking us faisal and hissam!

I had the linguine marinara, pasta with sun dried tomatoes, king prawns and mussels, in a rich tomato sauce and my husband got the penne arrabbiata. the seafood in the linguine was nice and a good amount of it, though i did have to add some salt to my own personal taste as it was slightly bland for me but the optional cheese on top really brought out the flavours, i was also offered black pepper but said no so maybe that would have made it even better for me. next time ill do that. the portion size was good and the bread was delicious. 👌🏾 the penne arrabbiata was very nice and had a lovely amount of spice and flavour to it. the resturant was quiet at around 5:30 when we came, but the waiter was very welcoming and attentive the price was reasonable and we both enjoyed the meal. would return!

Excellent food, wine, and service at la favorita. literally could have licked the plate clean. scallops for starter. cooked to perfection and piping hot. i was going to have a steak for the main course, but i decided on the monk fish in tagliatelle. another amazing dish. again, piping hot. compliments to the chef 👨‍🍳

We enjoyed a very pleasant meal here. the staff were friendly and the restaurant felt intimate and cosy in its decor. we all very much enjoyed our meals, the pasta was creamy and warming and the pizza had a crispy crust and was topped generously with peppers and goats cheese. i felt that the portion size for my pasta was a little small (although perhaps i’m just greedy as my friends were perfectly satisfied with theirs), the pizza was good however, less cheese would have been preferred as it was very thick and a little over-powering.
