If you’re looking for an authentic Italian dining experience, this restaurant is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm smiles and a sense of being welcomed into a family home. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with soft Italian music in the background and the aroma of freshly baked bread filling the air. The food? Simply divine. Every dish bursts with flavor and authenticity, from the velvety pasta sauces to the perfectly crisp wood-fired pizzas. I highly recommend their homemade ravioli and the tiramisu—it’s a little piece of heaven on a plate! The staff (Farid) goes above and beyond to make sure you feel at home, offering recommendations and genuinely caring about your dining experience. You can tell they are passionate about what they do, and it shines through in every detail. This restaurant is more than just a place to eat; it’s a celebration of Italian culture and hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back soon, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone craving a true taste of Italy!

Grandioso! First visit to this hidden gem in Hall Green. Great food , swift service and bring your own wine. Thoroughly enjoyed the pasta, pizza, lasagne and the waiter Farid was friendly. An altogether fantastic experience, can’t wait to go back.

Este establecimiento estaba muy ocupado a la llegada, lo que siempre es una buena señal. Han convertido la zona exterior en un comedor extra con un mirador y calentadores, que era muy agradable. El servicio fue brillante y todo el personal muy servicial y amable. Encontré este restaurante en línea ya que venden un plato exclusivo, que no se encuentra en muchos restaurantes. “Fillet Rossini’ y este es uno de los mejores que he probado. El restaurante no tiene licencia, puede traer su propio vino, que es un toque encantador. Sin duda volverá pronto. Gracias Alfresco Fusion por una noche encantadora!

A hidden gem! It had been ages since we last enjoyed Italian cuisine, as our local spots have all closed down. We decided to try this place on a whim, and it did not disappoint – we’ll definitely be back. The food was simply amazing, served piping hot with generous portions that had me in pasta heaven. The service was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was delightful. As someone who gets anxious about dining in new places, this restaurant felt like a safe, family-friendly environment that made the experience all the more enjoyable. Unfortunately I was far too full to try a dessert but that gives me a good reason to return. Thank you so much for a wonderful meal and amazing service.

This is an amazing restaurant, hidden in a row of shops. We hadn't been for a while and I went for the formaggio Di Capra and my husband chose the fish mixed grill. Both were delicious. This restaurant doesn't have an alcohol licence so you can bring in your own and there is a Tesco Extra conveniently next door to buy supplies. Good veggie options.

First time visiting and we sat outside. I must say that you get great value for your money considering the size of the portions. Very friendly but leave you in peace rather than bothering you every 5 minutes. This is a bring your own drinks venue but fear not, there is a Tesco Express next door. Very happy and will definitely return. Thanks to everyone at Alfresco Fusion from Mr and Mrs Shingler

We love to eat at the lovely and down to earth restaurant. The food is always delicious and authentic. It’s very lively in the restaurant so we tend to eat in the alfresco bit instead.

Possibly one of my favourite Italians ever! The food is stunning with a great restaurant atmosphere✨🫶🏼Recently my family visited for a birthday and we were sat in the outdoor area due to the size of our table, I was a bit unsure about being outside but when we arrived we were more than happy… the outside seating area is lovely and warm from the heat lamps and the atmosphere was lovely! The restaurant let me set up all of my little birthday props on the table and they were more than happy to bring the cake out at the end for us!🎂💕

Lovely restaurant in Hall Green that has a wash of Italian restaurants. There was an issue with a starter and this was quickly rectified. The mains were big so you need to ho hungry. I had a pizza which was authentic and tasted lovely. I would happily return to have another dish in the coming future.

Always fancied eating at this Restaurant as at night it looked so inviting and Italian , so we popped in for pasta Bank Holiday Monday and so glad we did. I had sea food pasta and it was delicious with plenty of fresh sea food in and perfect pasta. My boyfriend also had a pasta dish he really enjoyed. Take your own wine or drink of choice as unlicensed, but let's face it that's where you really add to your final bill the drinks, so taking your own works out much better! Highly recommend and they are Italians that run the place :-) PS their pizzas looked amazing too

We had the pleasure of eating here after my Daughter got married last week. 40+ guests arrived after the wedding and the team delivered a faultless service for us. We were allowed to decorate the room and tables to provide a wedding theme. To have 40 + guests turn up all at once. Eat drink and socialise all afternoon and not hear about one complaint of nothing is priceless. Thank you to Farid. Suzanne and all the back room staff for making my Daughters special day perfect.

Have been previously and thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the food. I took my wife on 16th November at 6 pm in order to celebrate her birthday. We were offered a table in the centre of the main restaurant but moved to an adjoining table by a radiator. Suffice it to say that it was chilly enough for us to dine with our coats on. We ordered our mains which were Lasagne for my wife and Spaghetti Bolognase for me. The food was served promptly. My wife's Lasagne was disappointing and looked like the sheets of Pasta had been drenched in sauce. My Bolognase Sauce was lumpy and overly salty. Not good value for money at nearly £17.00 a course. We decided to skip any Dessert. Not a good experience. Very disappointing...
