"It is very hard to find good Italian food in Cambridge, but La Margherita has exceptional food and very, friendly, attentive service."
Have eaten here numerous times, thought it deserved a review. Great local family run Italian restaurant just opposite Magdalene College. Friendly staff and consistently good food at reasonable prices, with a decent range of pizzas, pasta and meat/fish dishes. My favourite dishes Pizza Arrabbiata, Maiale (pork fillet) with Marsala, and Pollo Milanese with spaghetti Napoli. The sea bass is also good, though it’s a big portion! Excellent range of ice cream and a few other desserts the Tiramisu and Limoncello Crème Brûlée are both yummy, the chocolate cake is delicious but huge. It’s often very busy, booking may be advisable, especially in the evenings. I don’t give many 5 star reviews, but this...
get the 'linguine con gamberi e funghi 's in the grunde meereskuchen pasta with mushrooms. it is super simple and tasty, and the garnels are the best part. I also tried the margherita pizza and it was also great (but not the best). the pizza is also given uncut so that they can eat all the cake as they want. in contrast to the reviews I liked the service our server was super nice and welcoming. I have to admit, although it took a while to get our bill after we asked. but my experience was great so I didn't take too much into account the inconvenience. highly recommended!
We love this non-chain Italian where the food is never a disappointment. Great pizzas and pasta and lovely staff. Having been as a couple and with a small family group we didn't hesitate to book the characterful beamed upstairs room for 18 friends when celebrating a special birthday. They did not let us down. Everyone praised the food and the service. Long may they continue to provide a great venue for good food in a lovely part of the city.
Located in an unassuming location, close to Magdalen college, but worth the short walk from the crowded city centre. Lovely food, good range of dishes, friendly and professional service. Caters well for vegan diners. Fairly-priced wine Italian wine list and a handful of Italian artisan beers. We will be back!

We were visiting a museum nearby and popped in for lunch. The staff were polite and efficient, the food was freshly cooked and delicious, and we had very good wine from the excellent wine list. All at extremely reasonable prices. We will certainly visit again.
Haven’t been here for a while but our visit reminded me of what a lovely place this restaurant is, a true Cambridge institution. Beautiful, freshly prepared food, friendly staff and great atmosphere, even at lunchtime. Will be back soon.
Very good well presented food.The tiramisu was the best we had tasted.The sea food risotto was excellent.Full of sea food and flavour..The restaurant was busy and had atmosphere.Very good value for money which would behard t better
I was here a few times and had the best pizza I had in cambridge, what a thriving in a city is strangely full of pizza restaurants. the service is always friendly if not always super fast.

This has to be one of the best restaurants in Cambridge. Our second visit to this and it did it disappoint. The food was excellent and service attentive. We will certainly be returning
