Altro Mondo in Leicester

We visited today as a party 10 and the service was impeccable, The food was fantastic and the staff also and it was such a relaxed experience considering how many there were of us. Will definitely visit again!

My visit to Altro Mondo in Leicester was average overall. The food was decent but lacked distinction, and the service was passable but not particularly attentive. While it's an okay option for a quick meal, it doesn't offer anything memorable or exceptional for me.

I went to this restaurant with my brother for his graduation, we have an amazing night, we are vegetarians and I was happy to see the options for vegetarians in the menu, we tried the risotto with vegetables and the calzone vegetarian, everything was lovely. I’ll come for sure

Amazing food before the show, with my fiancé with we decided to have a meal before the show and we tried the pre theatre menu, the chicken was amazing, and the steak was delicious. Very good price and nice staff.

2 Friends and I went for a meal before going to the Curve . It was absolutely Beautiful ! Fresh and very reasonably priced x The waiting staff were friendly but not overpowering 🙂

Still the best Fillets Steak in Leicester.

The filleto Rosmarino is to die for, good portion, very nice staff and amazing environment, I went with my mother, and she loved everything. We come back soon.

Absolutely love it here I would go every week if possible

I highly recommend this place. After the show in the Curve, We went for a dinner with my partner and the food was amazing, we ordered the calamari and prawns for starters and then we decided to try the Steak Mozarella and the pork with Mushrooms, those were absolutely fantastic. In the end we decided to finish our meal with a lovely portion of profiterols, they were fresh and tasty. Will definitely be back.

The atmosphere amazing and staff as well. I ordered the calamari and loved it.Really good ones and also, penne amatriciana,the taste was really good,like home-made but pasta was a bit too forced al dente,I should’ve mentioned it to them to boil pasta more for me. But next time for sure🥰🙏🏼 Really recommend.

Food was excellent, the service was amazing Ana will take care of you !

Absolutely great night, great service lovely food, Roxy on the karaoke made for a perfect night. Would highly recommend.

This is a very nice place for dinner. We went on a weekday and it was rather empty. The ambience was modest but done well. The service was very good, I have to point out. We had the mixed platter for two and it was quite good. For dessert I had the tiramisu. It came out freshly made and was very good. I can heartily recommend this place.

Wonderful food- we’ve just returned from Italy and this is as good as we got there! Really nice staff too!

Great food and friendly staff, i was suprised that tje isnt full every day, good for a preshow meal, a wide selection of food and dietry requirement catered for

Really nice place to eat. We had the pre theatre menu. Loved it.

This is probably one of my favorite resturants in leicester, how is it not packed all of the time. Very good and reasonably priced food, better and fresher tasting than oggi, green door and sappori , give it a try you wont regret it x

Love love love this restaurant! Delicious food and excellent friendly service. Highly recommend. Thank you 🙏

I’ve had risotto a few times and I never liked it. I still don’t like risotto. If you like risotto I’m sure you’d love their seafood risotto. I still had to add salt, pepper, and fresh Parmesan. My husband loved his puttanesca and my son loved his lasagna. The espresso was fantastic. The cheesecake was more whipped cream like to me. We also had a bottle of white wine from Italy. We had all this food and it was way cheaper than most restaurants we’ve been to. I’d go back and get seafood pasta instead of the risotto. The staff was friendly and the bathrooms were clean. This place is definitely worth a visit. If I ever go to Italy I would try risotto there and then I’d know for sure if I’m not a fan lol 😝 until then, pasta only. 🧡

Lovely place , beautiful food and outstanding restaurant feels like your at home!

Great food and great atmosphere for a great price!

Fantastic place for food and family. Would definitely recommend it. Can't wait to go again 🍽 🙂

Unfortunate with the rating when you have such a great place. It can be sooo good.

We’ve been coming here for years now and it’s never falters. Food is delicious and authentic, staff are so welcoming and attentive and it’s great fun coming on a Friday or Saturday evening. Haven’t sampled the party menu but given the quality of the food I imagine it’s a steal at £27 per person for 4 courses. Definitely recommend, a hidden gem in Leicester.

We had a terrific meal just right for pre-theatre. Although the pre-theatre menu is limited the quality of the food and service is very good. Looking forward to visiting again.

It might not have been the prettiest plate of food I've eaten but I could not fault the taste. My steak was cooked to absolute rare perfection, one of the best I can remember! The dolcelate sauce was heavenly and I ate more of the potato wedges than I probably should trying to mop it all up! The staff were friendly and helpful, on hand for anything we needed without hovering. If I had to criticise anything, it would be the lack of a side plate for the very generous (everything about the portions was generous) salad that came with the meal. Can't believe I hadn't found this place before, will definitely be returning!

We booked a table for early on a Wednesday evening and found we were the only diners in a large restaurant. As a consequence the general atmosphere wasn't wonderful. The quality of the food and service made up for it,however. Located in the centre of Leicester with reasonable on street parking close by.

This restaurant had amazing and tasty food. The service was fantastic and servers were working so hard to ensure we had everything we needed. Couldn’t fault a thing. Thank you for a great evening. Will definitely be coming back again.

Came here for my husbands birthday with family , mihai and Ana went above and beyond to make our evening extra special , would highly recommend, and will be returning to try the rest of the menu , food was so beautiful, everyone enjoyed there choice off the menu , thank you

Went for a 50th birthday party. Brilliant night, food was delicious and the karaoke was a blast. Staff were excellent, particularly Angie and the other girl who worked so hard to make it a night to remember. Kudos to to the karaoke entertainer (Steve?) And to Angie for joining us on the karaoke. Would definitely recommend and be returning?

We made a spur of the moment visit to the restaurant based on its good reviews and we’re not disappointed. We were in early as we were visiting the theatre later. The staff reassured us that they would get us served and away in time and had a pre theatre menu offer. Our waitress was friendly and helpful, and things were well run even though the owners were away that week. Excellent food and drink was provided. Everything was very well done and at a very reasonable price. We will be back,

We had another lovely meal here on Saturday evening. It was busy but we were looked after brilliantly by Ana and her brother Milui. What a hard working pair and so smiley and pleasant. They are a credit to the business.

Problem with this place is short staff and ignorant and intolerant owners. By this I mean that you can’t request a single change from any item on the menu. You can’t request they don’t put a certain topping on a pizza. You can ask for it to be less spicey. And the poor waitress is running around chasing her tail. She is lovely but the owners aren’t. Food is hit and miss.

Had the set summer menu as it was a leaving do. Food was nice though I'm not sure i would have served salad with the lamb. Karaoke was a laugh and everyone sang along. Only down fall of the evening, was if paying by card for drinks at the bar, the minimum spend was £20. Take cash with you.

Visited on the weekend based on reviews. A really pleasant experience only slight let down was the inedible lamb chops that were served as part of the mixed grill.Thankfully the portion size was generous enough that we were still full and once we pointed it out, swift action was taken to put things right. The karaoke lent a really nice atmosphere, and the service staff was top-notch, professional. Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.

The meals are freshly cooked and are amazing The staff are friendly and very accomodsting. We were a large group of 12 people bug the service was amazing. Deffinitly will be going back

Great little hidden Gem in Leicester Quality Food and Great Entertainment. Lots of choice and authentic Italian food. Highly recomnended !

Good service and the food was very good

Once again, an exceptional experience, food was outstanding and service was personable, friendly and prompt! This place cannot be beaten in Leicester! Thanks for a lovely evening and the complimentary limoncello 👍

Amazing food. Would definitely recommend the salmon pasta.

We visited Altro Mondo two weeks running prior to going to the nearby theatre. They have an extensive menu for pre theatre and À la carte of traditional Italian meals. The quality of the food and presentation is exceptional. We were really well looked after in terms of service. The restaurant is immaculate. It is well laid out and a pleasure to dine in. A great place for quality food and service in a relaxing environment.

Lovely food, great service, short wait, good times!

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere, we ordered from a la carte which was delicious. would definitely recommend!

Visited last night with my family and cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Excellent value for money, the food was delicious with generous portions and the service was fantastic. If I’m ever in Leicester again I will certainly be stopping by!

Had the pre-theatre menu, and it was delicious! Great value and the staff were lovely 😍 Would definitely recommend 👌

Was not my first choice & was wrong about that - one of the best foodie experiences in a long time.

Delicious!! We’ve tried the place as it was recommended by our friends and I cannot express how amazing the food is! We been served by Ana which it is such a lovely person and also Mihai looked after us. Steak and pollo parmegiano was extremely delicious! Overall will recommend 100% ! We will definitely return.

I had the steak 🥩 and it was the best I've ever had 10 out of 10 great service and nice staff ..... marvelous.

Bland food. Not the best Italian place

Absolutely fantastic. Great friendly service and the food was the best we have eaten in a restaurant for a long time. Will definitely be back.

Great place to eat. Good food. Great service. Close to the theatre. It is our second visit and won't be our last.

Looking great after it's face-lift Lovely waitress and great tasking food Best of all - prices you can't beat

We had tickets for the theatre and wanted to eat before. Some places are fairly slow in serving, so we allowed a generous couple of hours. We needn’t have worried. The service was efficient, friendly and generally spot on. The pre theatre menu is great value and offers a good choice of dishes. Ours were very tasty, and we had time to add great puddings too. I was not surprised to see that the place was filling up with customers by six pm, so it would be wise to book.

Another great night . Best steak in leicester

Lovely food, friendly staff would definitely recommend. Pre theatre menu is a bargain!

Very good for a pre-theatre meal, desserts were very good. Good value for money & good food.

Walking in at 5pm in the hope of eating prior to our show at The Curve. We had been to another restaurant called Roma but the were fully booked. They did however recommend Altro Mondo to us and were helpful with directions. When we arrived...

Really nice pre theatre meal here. Ages 11 to 81. Great value and good portions and the staff were amazing. Will return when back at the Curve

I would have put 1 star because the waitresses were not very accommodating or welcoming. The food was bag average where I didn't eat the steak. (Why would a chef let steaks like these leave his kitchen) but I've added 2 stars to a 3...

The staff are very welcoming & happy to help with any needs. Entertainment was great. We had such a laugh. We are returning customers. Highly recommend

Went for my birthday 15 of us We had an amazing night,the food was excellent and thanks to all the staff you were outstanding. Karaoke made the night we all had so much fun. Thank you altro Mondo will be coming back in the summer. X

La nourriture était simple, et l’ambiance dans le restaurant vraiment très désagréable. Les serveurs et les patrons ne savent pas communiquer, ça coupe la faim…

Excellent food and excellent range. Fantastic value for money. Lovely atmosphere. Best Italian I’ve been to for many many years.

Booked this restaurant based on it being highly rated, however the food was terrible. Food was bland and we ordered a calzone that came out deep fat fried with oil sitting on top of it. When questioned, it was argued by the waitress that this...

The food was ok, not seasoned at all and very little flavouring. The french fries we ordered came as a big portion in a bowl bit were VERY oily. Wont be visiting again unfortunately

Nice place average food although we had the set Christmas meal

You don't come here for the food, but the atmosphere with the karaoke was great.. note that you need cash on the bar and no card payments less than £20. They do not allow you to run a tab. Drinks are expensive.

Lovely restaurant, beautiful food, glad booked a table. Would happily eat there again

Food is terrible karaoke saved the night drinks expensive staff not the best

They had exceptionally limited veg options, and some of the limited ones they did have, were cooked in wine - so not edible by a Muslim or someone who doesn't drink. Veg option that came out was extremely cold for all of us and had to be sent back. By the time they came back out piping hot everyone else had ate and the appetite wasn't there anymore. Finally, considering they are based in the heart of Leicester, having no halal options is a massive downside.

Friendly service excellent ideal for a meal before a show at the Curve which is only round the corner

Had the best night at Altro Mondo for my 50th Birthday was an fabulous night, amazing food great entertainment nothing was too much trouble. Can’t thank all the staff enough for making it really special.

Happy with everything food was great

Amazing meal Amazing service and amazing value

Excellent food, lovely and clean inside and service was great. Will certainly eat here again

Great food. Good value. Nice staff

Fantastic food, great atmosphere and staff were lovely.

Absolutely amazing and truly the best food I have ever tasted. Service was very good and I will definitely be going again.

Thank you for fitting us in at short notice, we will book next time. The food was excellent and very reasonable price. The restaurant ambience was top class, very enjoyable experience, a return visit is already planned

Food was very average, and the service was extremely rushed. Me and my wife went for a meal and some adult time and was rushed in and out within less than an hour and that’s a starter and main. The staff was very stressed and pressured and the place wasn’t even full. We will personally not be going back. It’s cheap but that's all.

My linguine pasta wasn't cooked properly as well as for other people in my family. The staff were against editing the dishes when we asked. We all had stomaches so we won't be going back again.

Pizza was great. Staff was not so friendly.

Booked my family for Dinner on the 8th September. Was one of the best Italian meals I've ever had. Menu very good and service excellent. Well priced and located in the centre of town 5 mibs walk from the Curve Theatre

Lovely staff, was quiet as the news had been announced before we went (08/09). Very happy environment, a good selection of food and drinks, which were served quickly and tasted absolutely brilliant. Couldn't finish my calzone it was hugeeee! No one in our party had room for dessert!

in the Italian dishes described in the menu it is better, but in the zizi restaurant, in the good pizza, but the one in the zizi restaurant is better. Not Italian chefs, but foreigners. As a person who worked in Italy as a cook, and...

Absolutely brilliant hidden gem of a restaurant. Service was spot on, food was some of the nicest Italian food we have had in a long time. A thoroughly recommended place to try!

Excellent 3 course meal. Before I walked in the restaurant, a satisfied customer, all the way from Hatfield rated this the BEST Italian restaurant. SHE WAS RIGHT. The food was made fresh, using home made sauces. I love my seafood, and my King Prawns starter...

Friendly, helpful staff, delicious food. Very good value.

Party night deal is great value 4 courses starter pasta main and desert plus karaoke. If you enjoy karaoke highly recommended if you don't go on a normal night and enjoy a good Italian meal.

A lovely meal very friendly would certainly recommend

Beautiful staff and amazing food. A very enjoyable evening

Very lovely family run business with excellent food & great prices. Can’t wait to try out the variety of dishes they offer so will definitely come again. :)

Very lovely family run business with excellent food & great prices. Can’t wait to try out the variety of dishes they offer so will definitely come again. :)

Simply the BEST Italian in Leicester. Superb Food, Great Service, Wonderful atmosphere. Also very consistent! Always as good as the time before! Highly recommend this place. 👌🏽

Service and communication was excellent and I had a phone call from them 24 hours earlier to confirm our booking. Our table was waiting for us and our meal arrived much quicker than expected. All our meals were delicious, clearly cooked to order and very good value. We didn't have room for dessert unfortunately!

Went there last night for a party and the smell of my steak and the taste was disgusting they took me in to the kitchen what a shock that was the meat was on the side in a plastic tub not even covered up it...

Great restaurant with a friendly, family atmosphere. The food was very well priced and tasted amazing! We would certainly recommend it.

Emailed them through the contact provided on their website to make a reservation for dinner. Did not receive a reply. When we arrived at the restaurant we were flatly told that a lack of response from them means there are no spaces available when that's not at all a professional way to manage customers. Plus many tables were actually unoccupied. We had 2 infants with us as well but that wasn't considered. Won't be trying to come here again.

Went with group of six family members on a refined stag event. The food, service and value were excellent. The karaoke was well organised and not intrusive. The staff very pleasant. A good night and no hesitation in recommending.

Amazing service, the prawns were magnificent! I have to write 100 characters but don’t know what to say other than everything was great!
