Lovely little restaurant with great ambience and a family feel. It’s run by a fantastic Italian hostess and chef and is our favourite restaurant in Tunbridge Wells. Ask for the ‘off menu’ dessert. Yum! Looking forward to coming back.

Some local friends suggested La Follia for lunch, a restaurant that we have walked passed on numerous occasions, but never tried. This is an unpretentious family run Italian place that is good value and we will definitely return to. Two of us had the pollo...al funghi porcini with a salad, one had the penne amatriciana, and I had the grilled salmon with salad. Everyone enjoyed their chosen dishes, and odd as this may sound, the salad had a really good dressing which made the combination work particularly well.More
Family run Italian restaurant that I didn’t know existed! Yes it’s small - so make sure you book or you’ll miss out! Food is delicious, piping hot, very tasty and very reasonable price! Went with a group of 8 other girlfriends, and we had a...lovely evening, with great service and a very enjoyable evening. Glad I found out about this and will be returning.More
Wonderful family run italian restaurant. Stumbled across it and it turned out to be a gem. Friendly owners serving delicious food, starter main and pudding all homemade and very nice. Will definitely come back for more when nearby again. This is what I expect from...an authentic Italian restaurant!!!More
Cramped, dirty, disgusting toilet, overpriced, small portions, no atmosphere and when we complained we were told we were rude and didn't like Italian food. This has been our worst Italian meal in 50 years!!
This quaint Italian restaurant is such a nice change from all the chain restaurants. The Italian lady, who owns the place, is extremely welcoming and attentive. The food was delicious. I don’t like desserts but we shared some anyway and they were very tasty. Definitely...would recommend and we will be going back. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because there is only one toilet for everyone which was full of cleaning products.More
Small and cafe-like, this restaurant is like being in Italy. Very simple Italian family food freshly made with excellent ingredients, together with good Italian wine combine to make a really good uncomplicated style of meal. Unfussy and very relaxed, quite basic and not at all...flashy - but proper simple Italian as it should be. Well worth a visit with the family.More
Italian food is my favourite and we wanted to find a local restaurant to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Just wonderful food, service and ambience. Thank you, can't wait to come back.
I have dined here many times and thought I would write another review to let everybody know it is still the best. Hubby and I took two friends who were visiting us from Dorset. We started the meal by sharing Bruschetta and a meat and...cheese platter with bread.We then moved on to the mains. I had my favourite Truffle Tagliatelle and hubby went for Steak with truffle. The truffle is excellent,the flavour is incredible! Our friends had fish stew and really enjoyed it. We all finished up with the best Tiramisu ever. We did indulge ourselves with wine from the excellent selection and left feeling spoilt and indulged. Sara and Tony the owners always make you feel so welcome and our friends returned to Dorset vowing to return soon even if its just to eat here again. I can highly recommend and remember that small can be beautiful. A couple of reviews previous seem to have been eating somewhere else as I do not recognise La Follia in these reviews. I urge you to try yourself and enjoy some of the best Italian food ever!More
We've been to this small intimate restaurant twice & both times we've been impressed. It is run by a husband & wife team - he does the cooking & she runs the dining area. The service is informal, but friendly & efficient. The food is...delicious with good portion sizes. There is fairly extensive wine list - all Italian. We will be going back there.More
The food was great, authentic Italian, prepared fresh to order. Friendly owners. However, the decor is shabby and not in a chic way, and could do with a bit of a clean. The area between the dining area and the toilet, and toilet itself, are...in need of a serious clean and redecoration.More
Ordered “ravioli of the day” and watched the chef take it out of a plastic packet to cook it, If I wanted supermarket ravioli I would have stayed at home
The staff were unbelievably friendly! The food was hands down the best Italian food in that you can get in the UK! The flavour was incredible and the truffle pasta to die for! I don’t usually write reviews but this place is the best place...I’ve ever eaten at!More
Unless I had read the TripAdvisor reviews I probably would have walked past this small trattoria. Saying that the aroma coming from it would certainly entice you in. It is small but certainly has a large heart. Ran by a husband and wife team you...could not fault their enthusiasm and passion. The menu ticked all the boxes for us. We both went for the Spaghetti Vongole. It was utterly delicious one of the best I have ever tasted. It was interesting to notice other diners comments and compliments . Also aware that every plate went back empty. Ours certainly did which rare for me. If you love proper Italian food you will love this small place. It's not all about decor. I'm planning my next visitMore
I’ve never written a review in my life but La Follia deserved it, totally wonderful date night. The food was so authentic and delicious. The owner is very Italian. It feels like you’re in Italy.
