Villa Marina Restaurant
We take a lot of pride in customer care and may email you following your visit for feedback on your experience. Rest assured we will never share your details with any third parties but if you do not want to receive a customer care email then please contact us by phone instead to make your enquiry. We are an authentic, family run restaurant in the beautiful riverside town of Henley-On-Thames.

We serve traditional Italian food in modern surroundings. The restaurant was first opened in 1996 by Fabio Terrinoni & his wife Jennifer. Henley has undergone many changes over the years and whilst we too have embraced change, the heart of the restaurant has remained the same. The restaurant is named after the charming riverside location we occupy, adjacent to the Henley bridge.

Very pretentious, stuffy atmosphere and substandard Italian food to be honest…

Loved the linen table cloths.
Good italian food.
Maitre d' could be better. Surprisingly dismissive with not even a thank you or smile when we paid around £200 on a rainy mid week evening. We didn't feel made welcome or valued.

Tasty food. Bit expensive for my budget, but luckily a family member was feeling generous and paid. I had the prawn starter, followed by chicken and cheese plus veg, followed by strawberry cheesecake. Pleased with my choice, as it seems (according to others) that it was the tastiest choice on the menu.

Astonishingly good.
I had the Scallops to start, and I've never tasted a sweeter, more perfectly cooked piece of seafood.
Then the veal with mushrooms and pancetta, which I had with the mixed vegetables and some very, very good zucchini fritti.
Finally, I would have liked zabaglione, but they only prepare this for two people, so I settled for a heavenly pannacotta.
Double espresso and a fine Limoncello rounded off a meal that was an absolute treat.
I have nothing but praise.

Family birthday meal. Excellent food, attentive service - it's a while since we ate there but it was every bit as good as I remember. Covid has put a stop to the dessert trolley though. Ah well. Will definitely go again and not leave it so long.

This restaurant is an all time favourite! The staff are like familiar friends and the food is always like home cooked Italian. The puddings are great too and I am always spoilt for choice. Highly recommended.

Dinner felt rushed and not continuous service. At the end of the meal not offered coffee just the bill. Once bill paid member of staff said loudly ‘oh yes that went through’ as if implying it wouldn’t. Would not recommend
