519 Lord Street in Sefton

What a welcome, the food was excellent and the service second to none Salvatorie was an excellent generous host and Chris's food was amazing, we had such a good evening we went back the next night to sample the pizza, which was excellent, we wanted to sample the sweet menu but were too full, we will next time. Well done to you both for creating such a lovely restraunt and fantastic atmosphere you had better believe we will be back. Highly recommend

We visited Fortunata as a family of 5 last week, mixed age group as there was my grandparents in their 80’s, my mum in her 50s and me who is 30, along with my 3 year old Francesca and we all absolutely loved it! There was a great atmosphere in the restaurant and we noticed this as soon as we entered. Great music and there was just such a friendly vibe! The food was beautiful, pizzas home made and you can even tell the bases were made fresh.. my grandad says it was the nicest pizza he has had! Salvatore was so lovely and welcoming, we loved his dancing and he made us feel so welcome. We can’t wait to return to here when we are back in Southport! Lovely place

What a wonderful visit we had to this friendly restaurant. Great customer service and the best pizza in town I would say. I highly recommend this lovely place. Thank you Salvatore and the team. We will call again definitely.

Ate here last night on our way home from formby beach sat outside as we had our westie with us had a delicious meal carbonara and bolognese followed by strawberry pavlova we were served by a very lovely gentleman who was the perfect host will definitely be visiting again 5*

Delicious meals, today, at this restaurant. The pizza was the best I’ve had, with no wasted crust round the side. Topping was delicious. My wife had the pancake “ Orchard” which was stacked full of chicken and ham and our 10 year old granddaughter said her Carbonara was the best she’s ever eaten.

Authentic cuisine, friendly atmosphere, Salvatore the owner makes everyone feel like family will be back without fail

A warm welcome, friendly staff and family atmosphere. Excellent value for money and a varied choice. Had the best fillet steak I've had for years and the special coffee truly lived up to its name. Highly recommend this gem. The evenings entertainment was wonderful - we'll be back!

We have been to 519 for the last 3 days of our trip. We have tried lots of different things on the menu and each one has been better if possible than the previous meal! Tonight we finished the evening with baileys cheesecake which is one of the best things I have ever eaten! My wife is a chef herself and she's often hard to impress when we go out for meals but she's loved each meal we have had here! The service from Sal is exceptional! We are already planning our next trip back to Southport just so we can visit this restaurant again!!

Had a wonderful night 519 Fortunata the food was fantastic very tasty and fresh, Sal made us feel very welcome like we had known him long time everybody was so friendly and we could not fault anything about the night and to top it all there was a wonderful singer called Ken who entertained us all evening with some great music ,all in all a wonderful night out thank you to everybody we will certainly be back .

Words cannot express how fantastic an evening we had here. It was like being at a happy family gathering. We were made to feel so welcome. The food was sublime, the beer was cold, the liqueur coffees were pure theatre and the live music was wonderful. Thank you so much for entertaining us so perfectly. We will definitely be seeing you again soon.

Booked in passing for Saturday night. So glad we did. We had a great time with good food and service. There is a regular singer on Saturday night and the entertainment was great too with everyone up dancing. Sal the owner and waiters were very friendly. We arrived at 8 and didn't leave to near midnight. Highly recommended.

Lovley bruschetta and green tea staff were lovley and food tasted brilliant I think it’s Italian they really know how to cook

Sat outside , service rather slow and irregular,. Sone strange characters on other tables chatting to staff and apparent owner , its clearly a front , but not on the front

What a find. Excellent food and extraordinary service. Felt like one of the family. Love Salvatore dancing whilst serving the meals.

Quality service and food at a brilliant price perfect for couples and family’s such a quaint restaurant with lovely people!

First visited this place over 39 years ago and back today just love it. Excellent food and quality. Thanks for welcoming me back

We visited Fortunata last night and as I don't normally write reviews, I feel our experience was more than worth it. Salvatore's service was more than hospitable in such a warming and family friendly atmosphere. The food really was worth retuning for and portion size...

We had a fantastic evening. The food was amazing. Loved getting invoved with the salsa dancing, that the owners were putting on and involved the customers. Will definitely be back for more fun and great food, brought to us by such friendly staff.

No where else in Southport can you have great food, great service, and great entertainment, a gem of a place.

As we walked down Lord Street we stopped outside and had a look at the menus. We where greeted by the owner who was so friendly and we chatted for a while. We went back that evening and had the most amazing meal. The garlic...

Dropped in this afternoon and was not disappointed. The pizza was one of the nicest ive had in a long time, really fresh. Cake selection was amazing. I had tiramisu which couldn't be faulted. Excellent service, great prices.Will definately be back

I went to this restaurant twice and I couldn't find a fault, service was excellent with Salvatore, food was delicious and lunch menu is a great value!

We haven’t been to Southport in years. We used to visit this restaurant when it was the Curzon , approximately 25 years ago. It’s changed names , but the food and service was as we remembered all those years ago. The owner Salvatore is still...

Attended with family and friends for a mid afternoon lunch whilst on holiday. Salvatore is an amazing owner/waiter and the most friendly and accommodating person we have met. Nothing is too much trouble, he provides excellent service and treats his customers like royalty. The food...

Went in here Sunday afternoon 11th Oct. Went in with the intention of eating but the moment we got handed the menus we knew we were in trouble, one paper menu was torn and had a chunk out of it and was covered in food...

Thought we would try this place as it was next to door to the the casa italia which we used to love . The social distancing didnt exist. The service was slow, there were people coming in with plastic bags obviously up to something illegal...

Nothing is too much trouble for this restaurant. Fabulous food and tremendous service. So good we went back and it didn't disappoint. See you next Wednesday.

Really surprised at the quality and quantity of food here given the prices. I was expecting a small pizza (£5.25) but got a large one that I would have paid around £10 for in pizza express or prezzo and I much preferred it. The pizza...

Just had a dinner for two at Fortunata, 519 Lord St. We didn't book but were made to feel very welcome and had a table by the window. The menu was varied, I had the Stroganoff, my wife had the fillet steak, both cooked to...

We visited 30 August and had set menu which was 3 courses all courses were cooked well to our liking a good choice and great value. The pudding was exceptional and homemade tiramasu. Staff were friendly and attentive, the venue was clean and sanitised and...

Very disappointed with the meal. Spare ribs came out so hot and steaming it was obvious they were microwaved. They were so tough and full of bones with a unpleasant thin bbq sauce. The sauce on the pizza was so thin and tasteless it dripped...

Light & airy venue with very attentive & friendly staff, excellent food at great prices. Spent a wonderful evening at 519, first night out since before lockdown and it was a delight from our welcome to leaving. Staff were attentive, the food delicious & excellent...

Staff are so nice and friendly, also the restaurant is very clean and the food is lovely will be going again and again haha

Went for food with a friend during the day, food was lovely and we'll priced and all the staff where extremely friendly.

Very friendly. I enjoyed the fish and chips with mushy peas, whilst my husband had lamb chops, chips and seasonal vegetables. I don’t normally like chips but these were good. We didn’t have room for pudding 😊

On a visit to southport we went to a lovely restaurant called Fortunata on 519 Lord Street and could not fault it ,the staff were lovely had a great conversation with Salvator .The food was excellent as was the menu and great value for money,the...

Tried this place for a lunch in Febuary 20, ordered pork toast which when I was served he brought me chips as told they had no potatoes. Meat was tough and veg was limp. After lock down thought I would give them second chance as...

Came upon this restaurant while walking past, people were sitting outside eating and the food looked lovely, so we decided to book for the evening. Menu was extensive, and great value for money. We chose from the Table D'Hote Menu 3 courses for £20. Food...

Food and service well below par. Stakes were not cooked as requested tasted and looked like they had just been thrown in the⁸ oven rather then sealed. Service was very slow and lackluster. Manager did give 50% off.

Food average. Felt sorry for staff. Not equipped or treated fair. Beer served from open cans !!!!! Is that allowed ?

Absolutely fabulous food at an amazing price, tables set apart, few of Lord Street and watching people pass by, unbelievable service and out dire seating weather permitting, masks worn lots of hand sanitizer and full tummies as the portions are large 😊😊 First time out...

We picked this restaurant at random after walking down Lord St, What a very unexpected place it was, We couldn't believe the service we had, we couldn't believe how good value for money it was and we couldn't believe the amount and quality of the...

We went here for a birthday celebration and were not disappointed. The set meal was lovely - even coped well with my garlic allergy. Live music was very good (pity it didn't start until later). Salvatore is a lovely host and nothing was too much...
