We had a fantastic night back in early August at Ask Italian Stratford Upon Avon. The manager Tony served us all night. He had a great sense of humour. The food was absolutely delicious (thank you Chef). We will be back for more 😍

I had an amazing experience at Ask Italian - Stratford on 22nd August 2024! Tony, one of the staff members, was incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. The pizza was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked with fresh ingredients and full of flavour. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and exceptional service. Thanks, Tony, for making our visit so memorable!

We have visited the restaurant with our quite anxious 8 year old grandson. He and ourselves were made to feel very welcome. We all loved the delicious food, the takeaway boxed brownie didn’t make it home as the grandson found it too irresistible. Was sorry to have not been able to pick up a bag as none left. All in all though a great experience 5*****

We arrived about 6.50pm without a booking and were told that,if we had not booked, there were no free tables. We walked outside and I went on the website and quite easily booked a table for 5 minutes later, we walked back in and were greeted by the same waitress and I told her we had now booked, we were then seated. Seemed strange. Other than that the food was lovely

Warning-tip culture venue.. Our group of four couples recently dined at Ask Italian in Bell Court, Stratford-upon-Avon, and had a generally delightful evening. The restaurant’s atmosphere is cozy, making it a perfect spot for our small gathering. The food was good, service was excellent throughout the meal. Our server was attentive, friendly, and managed our small group with ease. Drinks were refilled promptly, and our courses were timed perfectly. The staff’s professionalism and warmth truly enhanced our dining experience. However, one aspect did leave us all somewhat annoyed. The automatic addition of a service charge to our bill felt presumptuous. This was only seen by us allafter the meal, and after we paid. We discussed this after leaving and our views we unanimous. While we understand that tipping is a part of dining culture, it would have been more respectful to allow us to decide the amount based on the service we received. Each couple added extra to the total amount on each tab, making it a double tip all around. Being a group, it is understandable to have a service charge, but not to highlight it on the bill. Not one of us saw the automatic 10% tip, and this is why we gave EXTRA to the waiter, who decided to keep quiet.. Ask Italian provides excellent food and great service in a lovely setting, making it ideal for group gatherings. Nevertheless, the management should reconsider their approach to tipping, allowing guests to show their gratitude in their own way and highlighting the added tip on the bill as well as educating the staff to be open about what was added to the bill innthe first place. I hope the staff enjoyed their 15 - 20% tip....yes this is why you get a three star not a 5. FOR THIS REASON, NON OF THESE COUPLES WILL RETURN TO THIS VENUE.

Not overly impressed. The service wasn't overly bad, but wasn't overly good. My grandson had a tomato dip which he told me was "fizzy". Sure enough, I tried it and it was. Clearly it was well past it's best, but they did replace it immediately. My wife ordered a caesar salad and unfortunately the chicken was going off. She asked me to try it to be sure, and whilst it wasn't rotten, the smell and taste was not that of fresh chicken. Again, it was replaced quickly enough but with the two different dishes causing concern about preparation and storage, I wouldn't eat there again. There was no offer of a reduction of any sort, which I would have at least expected, just as a courtesy. If it had just been the one thing, then it happens, but two instances of different foods being off has to be more than a coincidence in my view.

was in the area and has tesco vouchers. never had a poor visit to an Ask before so why not? firstly, there was remnants of the sauce from previous diners on the table and also some food on the long seating and nearby floor. very easy to spot but had been missed somehow. starters - i had cheese fondue which was ok but it was cold in the middle. i stirred it around a bit and it was......ok and king prawns on ciabatta which was enjoyed. mains - carbonara was enjoyed. i had calzone. after my cold in places starter, i was hoping for an improvement. the calzone was burnt. not all over but it did spoil the taste of nearly half of the underside. had soft drinks. so one person was happy and one wasn't. two dishes not up to standard. the uncleanliness was slightly off putting. and the staff were more bothered about their phones than anything else. maybe it was a bad day. many other reviews are good

So on three occasions now I have walked in without a booking, hoping I could just walk in (this has typically been midweek and lunchtime hours so not at all busy!) only to be told they are fully booked (one time the place didn’t even have one table in use) and that they’d have a table in an hour or two. Never bothered to go back. If you don’t want walk ins then you should say so! I’d understand if I was turning up on a Friday or Saturday night but Tuesday (out of holiday time) at like 12:30 isn’t busy! To add to this staff are so rude and roll their eyes at you when they see you waiting.

Tonight me and 4 of my firends dined in at ASK to celebrate a birthday. Entering the restaurant a very comfortable and welcoming environment with a very aesthetically pleasing dining area. Suprisingly it was quite quiet for a Friday night but usually it would be alot busier, but it was still a pleasant atmosphere. The person serving us although I didn't catch their name was very friendly. Although it took a while to order our drinks, the overall service was very efficient afterwards. We ordered a selection of 3 starters to share including the Calamari which I highly recommend. For our mains we had calzone, and other pasta type dishes which where all good quality and delicious. Overall I would love to come back to ASK Italian in Stratford for another wonderful evening out.

The atmosphere was going great because it was my house, however when I opened my pizza I was incredibly disappointed to see that my happy face pizza had no face. It was just a wonky small pizza with no olives for eyes and no vegetable sticks. For £6 of my British money I expect a happy face on my pizza when it is promised. As a result of this there was no happy faces, not on the pizza and not on my face either, ruined my night.
