Here at Carluccio's, we’ve always been true to our Italian heritage and what food really means to us. The best ingredients, from the best regions, cooked with love.

We’re in the heart of the city, next to the Cambridge University buildings.

We’re open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner Monday to Sunday. We cater for vegetarians and those who are following a gluten-free diet, with options for both on our menu.

    A lovely meal at Carluccio's in Cambridge. Friendly and professional service. Excellent chicken Milanese - lovely crispy breadcrumb coating - piping hot fries (crisp outside and fluffy inside as they should be). Good coffee (rich and strong) - and a delicious brownie with pistachio ice cream. The Giardiniera pasta was also (apparently) delicious. Pleasantly spacious dining area too with high ceilings so there's a gentle sound of background chatter from other diners without drowning out your own table's conversation. Thank you to all the team.

    Service was exceptional (Table 32 at 1330). Food excellent (Carbonara) perhaps a tad heavy on black pepper (which I enjoyed) Ambience as usual. A busy Saturday. Enjoyable Will book again. Thank you.

    We always have the same things: penne giardiniera and broccoli/lasagne and side salad followed by coffee. It's good! Lasagne was a bit cold this time, hence the 4 stars. Nice staff, nice atmosphere, reasonable price. We'll be back.

    The wine was on the pricey side and our Chicken Milanese was slightly overcooked but these minor blemishes were completely outweighed by the excellent service provided by all the staff.

    To keep this revue in context. We ate at 5.30pm on a Sunday afternoo. There were few clients which enabled the staff to give outstanding service throughout the meal. The food was excellent in presentation and taste.

    Very poor allergy awareness - seemed very unsure and needed persuading to go and check with kitchen. Came back with a no the dish is not suitable but did not give any other suggestions or provide what was suitable. This was despite the allergy being altered to on the open table booking. We therefore had very little confidence in allergy awareness and safety so decided to leave without eating. Also, despite reserving there appeared to only be a very poorly suitated table avaliable.

    Service was poor, despite the restaurant being half full and arriving in good time we had to bolt the food down to finish in time for our cinema booking. A long while since we have been and it was better previously.
