Everyone has ‘that’ restaurant. For some ‘that’ restaurant can be a guilty pleasure, shrouded in memories or just because you love it and can’t quite put your finger on it. For me, The Valle D’Oro at Newbury is the restaurant I always call upon when I need something. Sometimes it’s to fill a hole with so much cheese I can barely walk, other times it’s just because I love it. Why do I love it? I cannot be specific as all the aspects of being there work together to ultimately provide an evening you cannot leave without feeling satisfied.
Valle D’Oro is a wonderful family run independent Italian Restaurant in Newbury town centre, it’s food and drink selection is very good, so many options for steaks, the service was fast and friendly and you could tell the staff really care about their customers and the venue itself is cosy and well decorated.
I had the steak in peppercorn sauce, I think if I ordered again I’d go for rare instead of medium rare. The fillet steak itself was incredible, it’s in my top five all time steaks, and it one of my go to items on menus so I’ve had lots in the past. The peppercorn sauce was also excellent, very thick and incredibly peppery, creamy goodness.
The portion sizes are massive, so be careful not to over order, the vegetable selection looked amazing but we had no room left to try it.
This is a great local business, it’s been located in Newbury since the 1080’s and you can see why it’s been so successful and long lived, it’s just brilliant, most highly recommend
We discovered this local Italian gem a decade ago and it has not disappointed on each and every visit. The food is fresh and portions generous. You are warmly welcomed by Carmen and her husband Carlos delivers up delicious plates from the kitchen. If you are in a rush, let the staff know. Otherwise, dining is leisurely. Not to be missed!
A great recommendation from a colleague. We reserved a table for dinner. The service was on point and the food was delicious, no one left hungry. The tiramisu was my favourite and I would recommend you try this restaurant 😁 Thank you to all the staff we had a great time.
Wonderful food, good sized portions Carmen and Carlos are excellent hosts.
I enjoyed the White bait starter followed by the veal in a mushroom sauce and vegetables.

Have eaten here a couple of times and it never fails. Lovely family run restaurant. The staff are inviting and welcoming. The menu is definitely for meat and fish lovers The! But some vegetarian options as well. Food is outstanding, and the portion sizes are more than enough. You really won't we walking out of there feeling hungry! Great wine selection also. An all round great dining experience. Will always come back.
A real classic Italian restaurant with a great menu and very friendly team myself and my 7 colleagues all left very full and happy
Fabulous and great value restaurant in Newbury town centre serving tasty and generous food portion with attentive service ... Highly recommended.
Go hungry, I mean so hungry you are literally crawling on your knees through their door. The food portions are nothing short of huge.
I had the cured meat starter, spaghetti and meatballs (in a spicy tomato sauce to die for) and a door stop wedge of strawberry cheesecake.
The meats were fresh and tasty, the pasta was cooked just right, the meatballs fell apart on the fork and the cheesecake was just pure indulgence. I didn't get the garlic, heartburn hangover that some Italian restaurants can leave you with either.
Go hungry, book well ahead - they are very busy, and enjoy the fantastic authentic food and excellent service, the hosts are itallian and incredibly friendly.
As some have said...go hungry. Lovely food, you can tell they care about what they send out of the kitchen.... wonderful owner/host. Definitely recommend if you want home made generously portioned food. Desserts are great too... with an good old dessert trolley!
We had the Sunday lunch menu. There was a really good range of dishes and the portions were huge - the starters were main course sized. The food was excellent. The front of house lady was a real delight.
