Another lovely experience 😊 Took The Olds to celebrate a birthday. The food was great, the sharing starter was brilliantly presented and generously proportioned. The staff were friendly and we weren't rushed at all, they even accommodated us bringing in a birthday cake. Really nice experience, would definitely go again 😊

Had to write a review about my experience at Ask Italian, Ashby, as I was so pleasantly surprised. Decided to visit thanks to a recommendation and will certainly be back. I order chicken Lecca Lecca to start followed by their Ceasar salad. Both were incredibly flavourful and would recommend. The staff were welcoming, attentive and friendly. With particular tha ks to our waitress/server, Lauren. Recommend.

Second visit? First was many years ago and in the time since its really stepped up. Menu is pretty good for a chain and food tasty and well presented. The bill pretty reasonable for 2 people, 3 courses and drinks (£75) We had Bruschetta to start (the common go to I know) Main- Manzo Piccante Main- Beef Brisket Pappardelle Dessert -Bombolini Sundae Dessert -Biscoff Cheesecake Visit was around 15:00, Satd toward the end of Feb. There were 4 or 5 other groups dining meaning there was some atmosphere, not rowdy nor like a library. Young lady and gent serving were spot on timing wise with drinks and order taking

Service was fabulous, lovely attentive staff. However the food left a lot to be desired. Two non fussy adults here who don’t normally review restaurants but found the high star score a bit of a mystery. Food was cooked well just absent of any flavour. I enjoy room temperature food but this was on the colder side even for me. Felt ‘healthy’ which on a night out isn’t a thing I normally desire. Felt like it lacked a healthy dose of olive oil on both pasta and pizza. All in all the service was great but the food was disappointingly unauthenticly Italian and I wouldn’t return.

Terrible food and terrible prices, £66 on three meals and a garlic bread. Food arrived in these tiny pots which were clearly portioned and microwaved, the pasta was stuck together and cold. The garlic bread was just bread. You would genuinely be better off getting a ready meal and you would enjoy it a lot more. Terrible, do not order from here.

The food was good and I have no complaints about it but the state of the place. The amount of food and mess in the floor was unreal. The table we were shown to was sticky after we watched it being wiped but then had to clean it ourselves using the cloth and cleaner. The worrying thing for me was this is front of house, the areas we can’t see, how bad are they? Service was ok, coffee came without teaspoons so used the spoon from our dessert. It’s been a while since I have been to Ask Italian and it will be along while before I go back

Disappointing takeaway. Ordered online a 'bundle' for 2, received confirmation in an email. Discovered when my husband had gone to collect it that another email had been sent saying order couldn't be taken due to a 'technical issue' with the restaurant. Called to order again and a dish from the bundle not available. Husband then waited half an hour, when we got the takeaway it was disappointing. Garlic bread burnt, food cold and my alternative pasta meal was slopped into a takeaway carton. No acknowledgement by Ask employees of the inconvenience caused. There are much better takeaways in Ashby where I will go next time!

I visited the restaurant on Saturday 25th Feb as part of a large group (50+people). Now I understand that 50 people arriving at the same time is a bit of a nightmare but, as I understand it, Marco was given all of our menu choices in advance. Anyway, we arrived at 7pm and received our starter at 8.20pm. This wasn't a huge issue as we were enjoying the company of our friends, however as the night went on it meant that some had finished their meals and others hadn't even had their mains, some never got them and left. The waitresses did their best to calm the waters and generally the mood was OK despite the obvious problems. The food when it did arrive was acceptable, but I had expected slightly better than acceptable to be honest. We asked for parmesan and was told there wasnt any tonight. Some on our table didn't eat their mains as they said it was bland and left before their deserts. As I say, I get 50 people is a bit of a logistical nightmare but surely the restaurant should have been prepared for that? All in all I would advise not to visit if you're in a large group.

We booked here for valentine day. I didn’t realize is was Marco Pierre white’s restaurant till we arrived. We live in Manchester and was visiting our daughter who is at uni. Was extremely excited when I realized x greeted by a really nice lady. We decided on the valentines sharing platter surf and turf. Bottle of wine arrived the waiter didn’t even let us taste it. Just pored it! Food arrived and the waitress just put the sharing platter in front of my partner which I then had to move myself to allow plates to go on the table. Food was just nice nothing mind blowing. Desert I had the Tiramisu which fortunately was gone in two mouth fulls extremely disappointing. Overall this restaurant is very average with no atmosphere what so ever and staff need re training. Save your money there are nicer local restaurants in the area x
