La Follia Italian restaurant trattoria

We have twice travelled far just to go to this lovely little restaurant. Authentic Italian food - truffles, which are hard to come by - and friendly owners. A very small restaurant but it is charming and unique, and the food and wine are great. A refreshing change from the many big chain restaurants out there!

Easily one of the best restaurants in Tunbridge Wells. A very small place but plenty of atmosphere, friendly hosts and incredible food! This is a must-go for all lovers of proper, authentic Italian food

Lovely atmosphere, great service and amazing food. Nothing beats a tasty steak with fresh truffles! Tiramisu is must try. We will definitely be back soon!

If you love truffles this is the place to be... Lovely restaurant with authentic Italian dishes... The truffle dishes are a must try worth lots of truffles grated over to get the full appreciation of its flavours, as well as the cotoletta alla milanese - a veal breaded cutlet, fried in butter (due to its shape, it is often called oreggia d'elefant in Milanese or orecchia d'elefante in Italian, meaning elephant's ear!)... With the lovely staff as well, this is well worth a visit!!!...

Had never been here before, but went with a group of girlfriends and will definitely be returning!
Yes it’s small and cosy, but that was great - you will need to book to guarantee a table - so do it!
Food was fantastic and very reasonable price! Great choice of menu and served piping hot without a long wait - perfect!
Great evening!

The best Italian food outside of Italy! Absolutely amazing food and the service was incredible, a fantastic couple who's only intention is to serve great food. Would recommend to anyone and everyone, I can't wait to return to the area to visit again! Thankyou

Just had dinner here. Sara the host is an absolute legend. She kept the restaurant open just for us. The food was amazing. The host was amazing and I wish she was my friend all the time.

Don't let the outside fool you. This place has seriously good food and seriously great service. The ravioli were so fresh - melt in the mouth. A few things on the menu were a bit on the steep side (etc. soup) but can't fault them for quality. Would definitely go again.

Had a lovely time enjoying some Italian food, food was delicious and the hospitality was excellent. Lovely little authentic Italian restaurant, would recommend!

A great night top food , lovely atmosphere what more can I say. We will definitely be back and highly recommend a visit

I have just moved to London from Miami, FL. I stumbled upon this restaurant on a day trip to Tunbridge Wells. It is single-handedly the best Italian restaurant in the country. I mean it when I say this is the most authentic Italian restaurant in the United Kingdom. We ordered the bruschetta, the spicy prawn, the meat platter, and the best truffle gnocchi I have had in my entire life. I will come back here even though it is almost a 2 hour train ride from London. Should be a Michelin Star restaurant. Unbelievable 10/10 Italian experience.

Absolutely delicious food and great service. We will definitely be returning, thank you!

I went to La Follia for lunch with my family and we had a fantastic meal. The food was gorgeous, two of us are coeliac and they had lots of choice. The service was the perfect balance of efficiency, friendliness and warmth, just how you imagine it would be in Italy. We enjoyed the experience a lot and I recommend this restaurant wholeheartedly.

Fantastic food! Will be returning - a family run business so it's authentic food! I had the Cannelloni and it was delicious.

Our fave spot to eat locally. The most delicious food and delightful service imaginable!

Fantastic italian restaurant, best in Tunbridge Wells. Lovely friendly service, fresh pasta and just the best tiramisu you've ever tasted.

Without a doubt the best Italian food EVER. Honestly so authentic, staff amazing and feels like you're in Italy. Going to definitely return. It's a MUST!

Less restaurant, more sitting in your favourite family member's front room while they bring you plate after plate of wonderful Italian food. We were in and out in 45 minutes (which I think was my fault, we should have had desert for my Mum's birthday but I got my wires crossed - sorry) but the bread and balsamic and lasagne were absolutely stunning.

Weekend trip in Tonbridge with a few friends and on their recommendation, decided to check out La Follia. Luckily managed to get a reservation. The lady in charge was a gem and just the best at managing the tables and taking orders. The food was out of this world, as authentic as possible, short of travelling to Italy…
A reservation is a must - would absolutely recommend and will be heading back when next in Tunbridge Wells.

really nice and welcoming - lovely people good service and great food!
recommend the bruschetta!
