Aldo Due in Burnley

The best Italian restaurant in the town. We were a party of 6, 3 generations of family and we have been coming to Aldo’s both here and in his first restaurant for over 20 years. Always a great welcome, and Amber the waitress is like one of the family, we love her to bits. Aldo’s food is genuine, it’s generous, it’s rich it’s bloody delicious. We started with a garlic bread and a garlic and tomato bread, lovely and crisp and tasty, then chicken wings in a BBQ sauce, sticky ribs falling off the bone, Polpette Boscaiola,(meatballs in a rich red wine, mushroom and tomato sauce), and Fegatini di Pollo, (chicken livers, pan fried with onion, garlic and a little chilli), all excellent For mains it was Spaghetti Bolognese, two Bologna pizzas, Calzone pizza with spinach and ricotta and a tomato sauce served separately, Pollo Cacciatore served with a dish of fresh veg and Monkfish in garlic and chill which my husband had with a spicy pasta, he said it was superb, my grandsons, despite being to full to eat all their mains, (they have the remains for lunch the next day), decided that dessert was called for, so tiramisu and blackcurrant cheesecake, and both got a thumbs up. Hubby and I shared a bottle of wine, and had a coffee to round off a fabulous evening. Amber brings a smile to all she serves and is an asset to Aldo’s. Give it a try if you’re looking for the real deal, you will not be disappointed!

The food here is amazing, really tasty. We came here last night. My husband and I had the spaghetti bolognese and the kids had pizza from the bambino menu. Then for desserts we had profiteroles and the amaretto cheesecake. I cannot rate it highly enough for quality and value for money. We have eaten here four or five times now and have never been disappointed. Would come here every night if I could. I don't write reviews very often - well hardly ever; but if you want excellent food at a very reasonable price you should try this one.

The food here is brilliant, the portions are large and the service is great. As soon as you sit down, you’re given fresh bread, olives and breadsticks. The menu has everything you need and it’s some of the best Italian food I’ve eaten. The chef/owner (Aldo) usually comes out to say hi and have a chat. He’s very friendly. What’s very disappointing about the place is the custom - there’s not enough. Yes, it’s a little out of the way and not well advertised, but more people should support this place. On a Friday night, there’s one chef (Aldo) and one waitress, which tells you they aren’t expecting many people through the door. There’s 2-3 tables with people eating. It’s not enough - more people need to support this friendly little family run place. When big companies charge over the odds and are jam packed, it’s a shame that places like this are empty. We will try to go back weekly and we will recommend this place to others, as I genuinely cannot fault it.

Expensive for a burnt pizza. Very poor restaurant apparently. Very poor Never again. For that quality? Really? Unacceptable

Absolutely fabulous meal yet again we had a garlic pizza and chicken livers with chilli for starters followed by monkfish and peas and a beautiful pasta dish… moretti and a lovely bottle of white wine….

We always have our group family party at Aldo’s. He consistently cooks delicious food… pizzas, steaks and sea bass were fabulous as always.. also a fabulous friend..

Great food and service,very nice when Aldo himself goes around to all the tables to make sure you are enjoying your meal will definitely be returning, thank you to all the staff👍
