Went in to ask Worcester and absolutely loved it, food was spot on!

Great experience,food was lovely, staff were attentive and helpful, will deffo be back!

I had the pleasure of dining at Ask Italian in Worcester recently, and I can't stop thinking about their Carbonara! It was absolutely fantastic. The pasta was perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of bite, and the creamy sauce was rich yet light—exactly how a Carbonara should be. The pancetta added a wonderful depth of flavor, crispy and savory, without overpowering the dish. The balance of ingredients was spot on, and the portion size was generous.

Worst meal we have had in a long time. We were sat by the door, which despite the two door system, they had propped open, so Storm Darragh joined us every 2 minutes whenever people went in or out. We went for the set Christmas menu as it seemed like a good deal. It took about 20 minutes for drinks to arrive. Once we ordered, it took about half an hour for our starters to come, I had the butterfly prawns to start (an additional £2 item), they were rock solid, dry and rubbery. Poo sack hadn't been removed in all of them either. They came with bruschetta which was so burnt it was black. I think it had been sat under the heat lamp since we placed the order. But we were so hungry I did eat the hard prawns. Took ages to clear our plates but our mains came very quickly after that (as in seconds). They'd obviously been ready for a while too. Most were lukewarm. My friends carbonara looked dry as a bone. I had the festive pizza. It came with one single piece of bacon on it, probably no more than 3 bits of pulled turkey and no chilli jam at all. I asked about the chilli jam, they took the pizza back and then brought it back to me and said that "they put the chilli jam in with the turkey"... Well I guess that chilli jam is still on an Air Turkey flight because there was none on that pizza. The turkey itself was actually nice just not enough of it. Another wait for pudding, then the poor waitress had to come and tell us that the puddings we ordered at the start (2 hours ago) weren't available now. Not wanting to wait any longer for crap food, we asked for the puddings to be cancelled and discounted from the bill. Which to be fair they did no issues and took a decent enough amount off, makes me think they have to do that all the time. Restaurant wasn't busy while we were there and there seemed to be staff around. By the end we were laughing at how bad the meal was. Would avoid and go Zizzi's if I were you

My favourite place to eat when I visit Worcester.. Always a friendly welcome, polite staff, excellent food and wonderful cocktails!

We came in during the Victorian Fayre on Sunday and it was really really busy but the staff were still amazing despite clearly being run off their feet. The food was the usual really high standard.

Delicious food and fantastic service by Amelie, Gabi & Cazz!

thank you Cazz and staff special that's Jacob

The lady that greets you as you walk in is extremely rude, doesn't even give anyone a smile, other staff members that serve your table are nice and polite. Food is great although sometimes it's only served warm, not hot. I think the service is very slow too.

Don't go unless you're pre booked, we walked into an empty restaurant, the waitress went off to ask the kitchen if they could accommodate us. Apparently three pizzas was too much for them 🤣 go to Zizzi across the street they are more welcoming. No probs in there getting a pizza 🍕

Brian is gorgeous young man. He is very pleasant and informative about the menus. I will bring my family to this restaurant as we enjoyed the food.

Super food always enjoy a meal here, excellent service from Gabriella

Gabriela was serving us and made the time to make our experience very personal. She was kind, friendly and did not make us feel rushed. We enjoyed our time at Ask Worcester.

Perfect, from a start from finish. Great staff, credit to you!

excellent cooking, delicious food,✨🫶 service Jacob+ Cazz best wishes staff....

Customer is my mum who has dementia and enjoys a Pizza Express pizza. I do the ordering and she receives it ! A real treat.

food was great and service was amazing thank you maddie!!! :)

We had a choice.of tables for our booking. Service was friendly, efficient and professional. All food was tasty and attractive. Caroline was very good

Maddie was very attentive - we had booked to go to yo! But after waiting at the door for 15 mins with no one even acknowledging that we were there, we decided to go to ASK and we thoroughly enjoyed our food and experience.

my brother and i went for a meal yesterday evening for dinner, had a table booked was waiting for about 20 minutes to order as no one checked if we had ordered. starters, mains and desserts took ages to come out, wasn’t many people in the restaurant (would understand if busy). very poor service never got offered if we wanted another drink or asked if our food was okay. felt very unnoticed! another table was sat about 5 minutes after us they were served in about 10 minutes and checked on a few times. left and payed just as we got mains. won’t be returning in a rush.

Great atmosphere, seated quickly by lovely waitress (think her name was ‘Amelie’) who took our food and drinks order. We didn’t have to wait very long for our food and it was all delicious.

Lovely meal with very attentive waitress. Thanks to Maddy. Great service.

Our server Gabriela was very friendly and food was delicious

Friendly staff,good decor and amazing food

Give stars for very attentive service from Gabriela

Front of house bloke was amazing, give him a raise! Food and drinks were also great.

Amazing service by Gabriela and top notch food. Recommend the chocolate falls and toffee sundae!!

Very good polite service, seated straight away. Food was excellent and desert was presented lovely. Staff were really nice and made a nice desert for my husbands birthday.

The food and service was fantastic. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be coming back again.

Me and my partner went for a meal on a Sunday lunchtime, we had booked a table but had been kept waiting for around 5-10 minutes before we had anyone acknowledge that we were there. We were seated and quickly ordered our drinks, starters and mains all together. It was fairly quiet in the restaurant so weren’t expecting a long wait. Whilst seated we were able to see the open plan kitchen and throughout the duration we were in the restaurant witnessed the ‘head chef’ banging things around the kitchen, throwing his hands around and speaking to his staff in a disrespectful manner, one individual staff member looked visibly upset from the way she was spoken too. The food arrived and was extremely poor, due to the way we saw the staff had been spoken too, we decided not to complain about food, paid the bill and left. We will not be returning in a hurry.

Cazz went above and beyond to give great service, even helping to entertain the kids. Food tasted great.

Food was delicious. Our order was taken fairly quickly and the member of staff was extremely friendly. Unfortunately once we had eaten our starters, we waited over 30 minutes for our main course. Eventually we did ask as we had noticed people who came in after as had had theirs. Staff were apologetic and our order was then brought out within the next 10 minutes.

Guy was polite and delivered great food what’s not to like

Incredible food, arrived fast, lovely atmosphere

Great service and excellent food. Good value. One of us is gluten free and we were particularly impressed by the careful attention paid by the server in ordering the food.

Welcoming, attentive and friendly staff. Good food and nice atmosphere. Well looked after by our waiter Lee. Lovely afternoon! The trio of puds is a must!

Fast friendly efficient and attentive service as always!

Another great evening. Lovely food and service. Thank you...x

The man with the beard was very kind, considerate and accommodating

Today was the second attempt to enjoy lunch, but everything was at the lowest level. Starting with the waiter, who looked sloppy with a pronounced smell of sweat. The dishes were not served at the same time for the guests of our company. We ordered carbonara with bacon and risotto. They brought us boiled pasta without taste and without decoration. There was no cream, no egg yolk, no parmesan. This is a DISGRACE. I do not recommend this place to anyone. You need to change the name of the restaurant. You do not know how to cook Italian kitchen.

Came with some friends on a quiet Monday night 6 of us in total, started with some drinks, when a certain waitress took our drinks order 1 friend asked about a specific pink gin that they apparently had last time and the waitress was a bit snappy with her response to not having that gin, but moving on our drinks came which was fine along with our starters which were nice but once we finished, our empty plates were left with us for over half an hour, we waved at that certain waitress who was at the end of the room either stapling I’m guessing takeaway bags or leaning over the counter chitchatting to the chefs who didn’t seem very busy either, it seemed from our point of view she would look at us from the corner of her eyes and then either turn around or look back to the chefs so in the end 1 of us had to walk up to her to ask her to take our drinks order along with our empty starter plates to which she said “yes just give me a minute” which turned into never turning up so we managed to get the attention of the other waitress who was nice and friendly and eventually took our drinks order, after a further 10 minutes our drinks hadn’t turned up and our plates were not taken away so 1 of us had to move our plates to an empty table next to us to which the not so nice waitress came over saying that we should not have done that and we should have just waited for her, you never even attempted to come over you stood at the back completely ignoring us🤷‍♂️, so we complained about her just being stood at the end of the room doing nothing to which she became snappy with us again saying “there are only 2 of us working on the floor tonight” which was hilarious as there were only 4-5 tables that night, where I used to work sometimes I’d have to work on the floor alone serving up to 100 people in 1 night with little help, 1 thing as a server you do not do is argue back at customers no matter how much of a pain you think they’re being, so after that we waited a further 10 minutes about 45-50 minutes in total after we’d finished our starters, our mains and drinks never came so in the end we got up told the other waitress how our experience was and how rude that 1 waitress was so we said forget our mains and walked out, disappointing for what was supposed to be a nice evening meeting up with friends who’d recommended this restaurant.

Food and ambience at this restaurant is almost always consistent and staff superb. I was amazed at the two Ladies who managed a full restaurant clearly wearing different hats! Hats off to them. It may have inconvenienced some customers but we certainly watched them in awe!

server was joyous and helpful throughout the entire experience and the food was divine

Food was excellent drinks good staff very pleasant

I have just had an amazing lunch with my friend at the Worcester Ask. Lee and all his staff give excellent service always looking after us both. This is our favourite go to place in Worcester

Excellent meal on Monday night. We arrived an hour before they closed and was met with a warm welcome. Great service. We will definitely visit again

Warm welcome when we came in. Clean and pleasant restaurant with nice decoration. Easy to order on the app. Had a choice of service at table too. Drinks came quickly. Good freshly prepared and delicious. Quickly served. Clean toilet facilities and helpful staff. Easy to park nearby

We were seated and then left for 20mins but unable to order in the app. We ordered 3 starters, a side and a kids little ones meal. This took over an hour to come and then the side of chips were still hard aa uncooked. The prawns were overdone and the rest was just salad. It was a painful experience. The waitress was nice and gave us 25% off the bill for the inconvenience but we’d much rather have paid in full and had decent food/speed - we won’t be back in a hurry.

The size of the pasta dishes was more than funny. I think it was enough for a toddler, not for an adult. The waitress was rude and wasn't helpful at all. We ask her, to ask for something from the kitchen, but refuse it....so absolutely not happy with that. Dont think so we coming back.

Friendly staff but that’s about as nice as it got. I ordered a gin and tonic, the gin was a lovely local gin which was fantastic, unfortunately the tonic was flat and the glass tumbler very uninspiring. The main courses we ordered were appalling, my friend had the mushroom pappardelle, the pasta hadn’t been separated during cooking and was still raw and stuck together in blocks, the sauce wasn’t coating any of it and it was only just warm. I had the king prawn and crayfish tagliatelle, apart from the small shell on king prawn on the top there was only crayfish in the dish and again it was only just warm. We did mention this to our server and we were given free desserts, these were very nice and tasty.

The manager in the Worcester branch was so rude and unhelpful. I asked if I could use my £10 birthday voucher off my bill we did have Tesco vouchers too. But the attitude of him was disgraceful no where in the T&CS did it say you cannot use with Tesco vouchers bearing in mind we did spend a lot more than the tescos voucher we had and we were going to buy more drink's he needs to go for training in customer service his face didn’t crack a smile. My friend was able to use hers in the WORCESTER branch even with TESCOS VOUCHERS. The other staff were lovely..HE SHOULDNT BE A MANAGER NO PEOPLE SKILL WHAT SO EVER

Great atmosphere, excellent service and food

Maddie was lovely, really helped us decide what we wanted and gave us good service. Will definitely be coming back.

Thank you to Robyn, Jude, Rich and other staff for the wonderful meal for our wedding anniversary. The food was lovely, the service was acceptional and we both enjoyed ourselves so much. We will definitely be back! Highly recommended. Xx

Was busy and we hadn't booked but they squeezed us in with a time limit of 1hr15. Food was good- nice choice. Antipasti was very nice. Risotto also good. Used the app to order and pay. Would recommend

Arranged to go to ASK Worcester for my 40th birthday party with 16 people. I was a bit apprehensive after reading recent reviews. We didn't pre-order and it was a Friday evening. It was great though. The staff were very attentive and the food was lovely. I'd happily book here again.

Booked a table for 6.00pm. After being seated with menus we waited about 30 mins, but we're totally ignored by the young staff walking past. A table next to us remained uncleared again with staff walking past and ignoring it. There appeared to be no staff supervision, a chaotic staffing environment by disinterested young waiting staff. After 30 minutes we left and enjoyed a loverly. evening at a neighbouring restaurant as non-booked "walk ins". The ordering process today with ipad technology takes seconds, to wait so long for the first part of a restaurant service is very poor. Leaving locally based customers who booked in advance to feel unvalued, and ignored means we will not return and will happily share the negative feedback.

Lovely waitress and the food was very good

Great food and great service every time, we were served by Ellie. She was very attentive and a great member of your team

Great service, food lovely and a great place to be

Good meal & service on a very busy night. Impressed that the cooking staff got involved in delivering the meals at a very busy time.

free prosecco for my birthday, and great pizza! very good choice for dinner, and excellent service

Been several times and each time it’s excellent 👌🏼

First time we were in Ask Italian. The begining was really nice. We get shots as a „gift”. My non alcohol drink was very nice. But food… for starters we took arancini - one was without taste and other two were nothing special. The worst were mains. We had pizza and calzone. We were waiting very long time and the restaurant was pretty epmty. Unfortunately pizza was terrible. The worst pizza I had. I visit 9-10 cities in Italy and never had something like this. Frozen pizza made in home would be better. Calzone was similar but better than pizza. For dessert we had pistacho and rasberry tart and if I wouldnt see in menu it is pistachio I wouldnt guess 😃 im not use to write reviews but this time I decide to let people now if somebody want to eat really italian food dont go there. Maybe pasta would be better because I saw that on pizza side was new worker I suppose. Anyway its not the cheapest food and I would like to eat at least 6/10. Sorry😞

I went for a nice little meal with my friend today at ask Italian and the food was incredible, we orders lots of starters and nibbles and shared them, including the butterfly prawns, cheese fondue and cheesy garlic bread. These were all absolutely delicious as well as my amazing Raspberry Non- Alcoholic cocktail. My waitress Paula was lovely and made sure that we had very good service when we were there and made my experience at ask Italian today even more lovely, I am very pleased and glad she was my waitress today :) Would recommend to anyone

Clearly a slow night on a Monday, had to wait to be shown a table while the waitress walked past several times polishing glasses. When seated, our order was taken promptly but wrong main course brought. Wine brought to table but rather than open and serve it, the waitress went to the next table to spray it down. Nobody checked in to see how we were doing so my wife just ate the main course. We pretty much always leave a tip, didn't on this occasion.

Always a great experience at Ask Italian in Worcester. Food was hot tasty and plentiful and serviced at the right pace. Service by Gabriela was excellent. She was friendly polite and made our evening with her professionalism and attention to detail. She is a credit to your company.

Maddie was very helpful and made my daughter’s birthday feel very special. A member of the party had a nut allergy and Maddie was very attentive to this. All in all a very pleasant experience. Thank you Maddie

Service was terrible - took party of 4 out for my Daughter's birthday. Arancini starter sauce was just like tinned tomato and very thin. Spag Bol had hardly any meat in it. Rigatoni dish sauce was watery. Two pizzass ok. Main courses took 1h 20m to arrive. We were told only 1 chef and 1 trainee and it certainly showed. This isn't the first time we've experienced poor service at this venue - we WERE regular customers, but no more. Manager was so ashamed she discounted our bill from around £115 to £43.52. Restaurant not very busy - IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE STAFF, THEN DON'T OPEN - SIMPLE!

Eaten here a few times. Typical offering from a chain restaurant but it does it well. Service is good, decent atmosphere and food is consistently good.

Pleasant Ask. Seated straight away on a Saturday night without booking. Nice food, nice atmosphere.

Amazing gin tasting event with Lisa and Cazz - both were so attentive and Lisa was so passionate about gin and the company! Such incredible value for money and very genuine delivery — will 100% recommend to family and friends! Makes you realise how important it is to shop local and piston are very passionate about what they do!

Amazing gin tasting event! Lisa and Cazz were so helpful, attentive and answered all of our questions. Also very good value for money. Will definitely recommend to friends and family!!

Gabriela in the Worcester restaurant made our evening so special from start to finish. The food and drinks were great and the service from Gabriela and the team was spot on. We look forward to visiting again in the near future. :)

Rhia, our server, was fantastic! She was friendly, chatty, and incredible helpful when we had queries regarding our clubcard vouchers. Our food arrived quickly and was a high quality. We will come back!

Well …. What can I say Rather than using a onion bhaji as a roll on try using dove Try garnsishing with parmesan and not hair (been battling a hair ball since Monday last week) Open kitchen felt like I was watching gogglebox

As soon as I walked in, we were served two shot glasses of lemonade. The staff were very friendly and we were served by 3 people throughout our visit. I ordered the carbonara and it was served extremely quickly to the optimal temperature. My friend order the sausage pasta and the pasta came al dente - its like marmite; either you love it or you hate it. Personally I like it but my friend doesn't so perhaps going forward, they could ask customers how they would like their pasta. Other than that, everything was incredible. In the mens toilet was 1 cubical with tissue stocked and toilet clean. Two urinals, three sinks all working with comfotably warm water, two soap dispensers fully stocked and two hand driers. Everything was lovely. I would highly recommend this place to people. I had the warm brownie and cherries clotted ice cream for pud. Option to order by QR code or by staff. I am very impressed as the restaurant met all my expectations. Highly recommend.

Our server Gabriela was very pleasant.

Considering there were very few staff working on the evening, they coped extremely well, were very pleasant and the food was excellent

Fantastic night, staff were amazing couldn't do enough for you, food was delicious.Would highly recommend 👌 AAAAAA********** Can't wait to go back thank you sooooo much 😁

We had a lovely evening in Ask Italian, Worcester. Cazz was extremely efficient managing the busy restaurant and still offering service with a smile. She was so kind and helpful. This girl deserves a pay rise!!

Lovely night out, great food and massive shout out to Cazz, Matt and co who worked so hard to keep everything running smoothly this evening, multi tasking due to being short staffed through illness. It must have been a stressful shift for all involved but they stayed positive, polite and helpful throughout.

Cazz, Matt and everyone did a great job and were lovely, food was great!

Great staff, Cazz is great, good food, nice atmosphere

Fabulous experience. Caroline was very welcoming and supportive during the evening The food was excellent too. 👌🏻

Great evening, lovely atmosphere, great food and service. Higly recommend.

The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming! They very kindly brought the dog out water and chicken for her dinner! We had a lovely evening thank you!

My experience at ASK Italian Worcester today was absolutely amazing! I went for my birthday and they made me feel so special with a glass of prosecco on the house! Very tasty food, amazing service & and friendly staff!

Always a lovely service, fresh delicious food with friendly staff. Went for my daughters 20th birthday, they're always accommodating.

Dog friendly outside seating, always great food and service 👍

We all had a meal there on the 12 May, service was top class and the pizza was superb . John and family wexford ireland.

Distinctly average pizza, enjoyable enough but nothing special unfortunately.. large portion sizes for starters though which was nice, although mushrooms al forno lacking flavour. Nice touch to have a shot of cloudy lemonade to start.

Couldn’t find a driver after over and hour. The restaurant phoned me.After waiting over another hour it still hadn’t arrived . Food lukewarm, over priced not good quality. Never order again

Very nice food definitely worth a visit

the amazing meal also come with outstanding service from Gabi and Cazz. the staff are very polite and efficient. we felt very welcomed. we will definitely be coming back!
