Gianni's Brio Restaurant & Pizzeria in Harrogate

Early dinner on a Monday evening, I was the first table. Staff were efficient,food was good Accompanied by a cheeky bottle of ale from the Cold Bath Brewing company next door.

45 Pastors eating lunch together with only one hour to eat, everyone loved the food and express service.

Got a takeaway from here and it was absolutely beautiful. Credit to the head chef and the team

friendly staff and very quick service

Super meal ,very reasonable prices and very nice staff .A modern restaurant with traditional food and service .

lovely meal, red hot when arrived! :)

Delivery driver was very rude but the food was lovely

Love this restaurant! The best lasagne I've ever eaten, no question, I'm still thinking about it a day later. Polite and friendly staff, great with the kids, top quality food and ingredients (it is Harrogate so between £16-£19 for a pasta dish) but absolutely worth it. Extensive wine list, can even get an Amarone by the glass! Will always book when staying in Harrogate. Thanks guys!

Not upto its usual standards. Pizza tasted moody.

Last minute booking on Saturday night they just managed to squeeze us in, staff were fabulous and the food was beautiful, we took 2 desserts back to our apartment as we couldn’t eat anymore and they were amazing as well. It was a bit noisy with lots of children but I guess if we had been organised and made a booking for later this wouldn’t have been such an issue. Nobody left a bit of food so you don’t need to say anything else really do you.

It was a wonderful evening. My friend's birthday. The service is wonderful. Very tasty food. Everything was simply amazing and very beautiful. Thank you very much for such a wonderful welcome

Food hot and delicious. Kids loved their pizza’s

Nice, hot food - the garlic bread was lovely, as are the chips!!! Just good and well worth the money.

The chicken kebab meat wasn't cooked enough it tasted terrible

Fantastic as always! Great value for money and lovely food.

Gianni's Brio has, for around 7 years now, been our traditional stop for Saturday lunch on an annual visit to Harrogate to attend a convention over the road. I am never failed to be impressed by the maitre d's ability to recognise us and greet us warmly, despite the intervening months. And I am equally, consistently, impressed by the restaurant, its service and its food. It is everything one could want in an Italian restaurant - delicious, fresh, pasta dishes (the eldest always dives into the lasagna, the youngest attacks the ravioli branzino with relish, whilst I demolish spaghetti with vongole and gamberi. Combined with a few starters - the gnocco frito are crispy, fluffy and plentiful, and the pizza breads are heavily-topped and disappear from the plate within seconds of landing on the table amidst a flurry of hands coming in from all directions - the portion sizes mean that we rarely have room for dessert, but on the few occasions we have partaken in them, over the years, they've topped off the meal perfectly. The only downside is that, unless, travel takes us to Harrogate again in the near future, we have to wait another year before we can go back!

Might aswel put £40 down the drain. Kebab must of been there weeks it was rock solid chips was brown ughhh horrible pizza just tasted of pure grease and salt . Never again lesson learned

Can’t knock a Pizza Kings for the kids treat of a weekend. Always hot, fresh and the kids love it.

Last minute decision to try this restaurant as we were staying at the Crowne Plaza. The place is great, friendly service, nice ambience and the food was wonderful. I must give a heads up once you place the meal order they bring out a basket of bread which was delicious. We had ordered a starter of pizza bread and unfortunately it was huge and a waste as we couldn’t eat it all.

Fantastic meal with friends Lovely staff Loved it

Took money from my bank card and message was enjoy your food like been delivered had to ring them and they just saw my order and delivered later

The best pizza & service, as usual!

This is as perfect as it can get with lovely surroundings and atmosphere with the addition of such professional staff. The food really is gorgeous, well presented and as authentic as you can get, what more could you want on an evening out? Perfection every time!

Absolutely awful service last night. Rushed and made to feel unwelcome from start to finish, dishes taken away before we had finished eating them and constantly reminded of how long we had left before they needed the table back. I have never experienced such rudeness when eating out. To add insult to injury we were told to keep a toddler’s music down to be considerate of other guests, when the restaurant was so loud we could barely hear it or each other talking! The cherry on top… I felt extremely unwell after the meal! Edit after response: Let it be noted that I also rarely feel the need to leave a review, but felt so upset and disappointed by the way we were treated. It seems your establishment believe respect and consideration is a one way street. We completely respect that the table may have needed to be returned by a certain time, although we were not made aware of this until 6:15, but there is a way to communicate this without being rude and pressurising, which is unsettling during an evening out. In order to improve on your efficiency it might help to ensure when the table is booked for a party including a baby, that you provide a high chair and not spend 10 minutes trying to attach a booster seat, provide a kids menu and more than 1 drink menu. Additionally, when asked for food to be unsalted, ensure that the food does not arrive with added salt and not need to be returned. It might also be nice to check on whether everything was to satisfaction during the meal and not just add on a £35 service charge after providing less than acceptable service. Not once were we asked if everything was ok, just constantly told to hurry up, have unfinished dishes removed from our table and asked turn things down! The very loud groups next to us were not asked the same thing. It is interesting to note that we observed you being friendly and accommodating to plenty of other guests and it seems the noticeable difference here was that we were the only table in your establishment that had a majority of people who were of colour. With regards to helping clean up the mess I would have been more than happy to oblige and actually planned to however we were pretty much stared at and made rude remarks about by your staff standing over us, before I could even gather my things. No offer from yourselves to even finish our mostly full drinks at the bar!

Always great food from here - Pizza’s are delicious and always delivered piping hot. Kebabs are great also - although more often than not, the Pitta bread falls to pieces. We go here a lot as far better value than Dominos.

Well, just over the road from the hotel I was staying at (Crowne Pazza). The service was brilliant, the food superb and the atmosphere just perfect. I was with my daughter Crystale and my granddaughter Fifi and Shamus a friend of the family. This restaurant made our special evening very special. Thank you!!!!

We all enjoy r food tonite came early an warm but not hot,,,but it was okay,,,the lot got eat 🤣

Fantastic Food,Great service,what more can you say 👍 Except Fantastic Food,Great attentive service,our go to restaurant

Had a great meal here with my family 2 weeks ago. I mentioned I was gluten free, a sin a I know in an Italian, but the staff were amazing! They immediately sent a senior member of the team over and discussed my options with me. They were very accommodating and made me feel totally normal, sometimes when asking for GF we can be made to feel like we are being difficult just for the fun of it! Each individual server was clearly also made aware and so as each course was brought out they double checked I was the person needing GF, and even commented not to steal any of my partners chips as those ones were not GF. All in all INCREDIBLE service that made me feel very confident in what I was eating. Not to mention the gluten free pizza was incredible! My family even commented they couldn’t taste the difference when they tried it! Makes a change from the usual cardboard pizzas that’s for sure! Thanks so much to all the team!

Amazing food perfect every time we order

The best pizzeria in Harrogate 👌🏻

I havent receieved my food am still waiting

Best service, lovely friendly guys

We have been dining at Gianni’s for nearly 40 years with our children, family & friends. Despite moving up north 10 years ago it’s always a pleasure to go back. The staff are always so welcoming & of course, Gianni a legend.

Food was only lukewarm so couldn’t really eat it and the bit I did eat was almost stale tasting so in the bin in went. For how expensive it is and how close I live, I’d expect it to be hot and fresh. Not going to order again as I’ve not been well throughout the night

What a find and just one minute from our hotel. The most friendly service and nothing was too much trouble. A real, authentic Italian run family restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious. My wife had lasagna and I had the spaghetti with prawns. Both had the homemade tiramisu to finish. Couldn’t fault a thing and would highly recommend this place. We will make sure this is on our list when we visit Harrogate again. Thank you for a lovely dining experience

Excellent food, fantastic service and a warm atmosphere

Sure this Saturday wasn't typical, but because they crammed as a any people as possible into a small space, the service was slow, the room exceedingly noisy and one of the main courses was unpallatsble due to excessive saltiness. 1 hr before we put in an order, staff under pressure due to crazy number of diners crammed in. So disappointed Martin and family

Had an excellent meal on Saturday night. Staff were very attentive, the food was great, as was the atmosphere. Will definitely be visiting again very soon.

Best pizza/burger/kebab /staff around.

Regular customer food is always lovely, hot and quick delivery

Always order from here. Quality pizzas

We are regulars at this restaurant and on our last visit we were especially impressed to the point I thought I would write a review. We receive friendly service from waiters who always remember us, and the food is consistently delicious, with sufficient variation to the menu. My favourite restaurant in Harrogate by a mile

The food was simply superb in every way and the staff were efficient and extremely helpful. The liver was perfectly cooked, pink and simply delicious, the halibut and the sea bass were also perfectly cooked and could not have tasted any better.

Hands down best takeout pizza there is, always 🔥🔥

Requested not to be sat near the door and this was accommodated. Was able to try 2 wines before purchasing. Staff helpful and attentive. Food was extremely good. I did feel prices on the high side but overall excellent

Fantastic service and food as always! Will always order from here. Definitely recommend.

Last minute booking just before Christmas with 2 adults 2 kids Paillardi di Pollo was the best chicken dish I’ve had at an Italian restaurant. Italian Sausage Pasta and Margarita Pizzas were also fresh and delicious. Timely service, good wine. Honestly this was absolutely brilliant and one of the best Italian meals I’ve had outside of the country. Well done !

Food is always roasting hot when delivered, will forever be my go to pizza place. Never disappoints!

Food was lovely and it was still hot

Food was lovely and delivered on time. Have ordered from here in the past but stopped on price rises. Had a voucher from just eat so used again. Food is great but ay overpriced. Would order again but only with a voucher. Too expensive on normal price

lovely pizza kings is the best fast delivery..nice hot food.

Gianni's is possibly the best Italian Restaurant in England! There are smaller more intimate places but even they struggle to match the family atmosphere that Gianni's deliver "in spades"! It can get noisy but you can still converse comfortably without raising one's voice Great and varied menu and a very sound wine list with some excellent cheaper offerings ( the Sicilian Merlot is brilliant) All the staff work with smiles on their faces and are very well informed about their products, so they can advise on flavours, alternatives, ingredients, etc. If in doubt they'll go and find out. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The food quality has to be seen to be believed! The fish sharing platter was large enough for 4 and the mains were beautiful. I had liver which was as good as I've ever eaten. The 3 pasta mains looked and tasted great according to the benficiaries. Looking around everthing foodwise starts as an "artform"; the kitchen philosophy must be, it looks good and tastes even better. This is a class, bustling eatery and at weekends is very busy. Make sure you book your table, there is a limit to how accomodating they can be. If you can't walk to Kings Road get a cab, as parking in Harrogate can prove challenging. Taxiprices are very reasonable It is rare that I cannot find fault when writing a review and I wish I could here, as I know that in correcting/improving it Gianni,s would manage to make their customer centred offering even better. Whenever we visit Harrogate Gianni's is booked long before we leave Bedfordshire. IT IS OUTSTANDING IN EVERY WAY

Is this the best Italian in England? Quite possibly! Service is exemplary and the food is brilliantly "curated" and perfectly prepared. They manage to create a family run feel to this large venue and all the staff have smiles on their faces and make every customer feel special. Nothing is too trivial and there are no problems just opportunities for superb customer service. Waiters know their product and are happy to offer advice on ingredients etc. Gianni's has become our "go to" eating place when in Harrogate and long may it remain so. We'll see them soon

Loved every dish we ordered and ai strongly recommend to visit.

We visited tonight having had it recommended by someone local. Service was great from start to finish. Food was all spot on. Crab and aubergine starters were amazing. The gnocchi was nice but not amazing. Mains of saltimbocca, chicken and sausage pasta were lovely. Large portions. Fresh ingredients. Couldn’t fault it.

Beautiful, authentic food, efficient service and a great atmosphere xx

This is a gem of a restaurant. Glad we booked because it was very busy. An energetic buzz of people enjoying themselves. The food is outstanding. I had sea bass ravioli, exquisite. My husband had calzone which he asked to be different from the published menu. It came exactly as requested. It was huge and delicious. If you have room for dessert then the raspberry crème brûlée cannot be faulted. Efficient, friendly service. We would return to Harrogate just to go to Giannis.

food was OK but cold and donner burger says has a beef pattie on? not on ours just donner meat ...

The best place to eat in Harrogate.

Excellent Italian restaurant One of the very best

Always on point this place cheers

terrible restaurant with terrible food, nothing Italian really. ok staff but the Italian owner very arrogant and nervous area, typical of a gambler or something. absolutely not recommended.

Popped in for a steak dinner and had a great night just me and my son. Delicious starters of dough balls and calamari then 2 outstanding ribeyes with fries veg and zucchini fritti, knock out! Service was great, even my 11yr old said “these guys are amazing, Gianni and Marco the owners working the tables to say hi! Proper Italian family restaurant! Grazie, tutto bene 👌 Just visited again tonight 18th Nov and had a great time with family. Awesome food and the team there are just the nicest bunch, talk to children like they are paying customers, can’t do enough for you! If we lived closer we’d go more often. Well done..again

one pizza missing one undercooked

Was waiting long time n it was cold

What a fantastic find in Harrogate. The food was amazing. We will definitely be going back

What an excellent restaurant, great food, lovely staff. Not hurried service... definitely worth a visit

absolutely fantastic food as normal

Gorgeous little cafe in John Street. I pop into this place regularly. The coffee and the food are top notch. The staff are lovely too. Just be aware they are closed on Mondays.

Didn't include free Item which just eat allows you to apply to the order when you spend over the required amount at first. Until I showed that it was on the receipt online and I spoke to driver and pizza kings themselves via drivers phone. They then made the item and then delivered it separately after me making the complaint and valid point of the fact just eat allows you to request and add the free item after spending the required amount regardless of what you order.

Always a great experience. Staff is amazing, as is the food.

Prices have increased quite a bit and for what you get it’s not even worth it any longer.

I like this place but they are now too expensive for what you get.. sorry I won't be ordering again

Fantastic best donner meat and chilli

So fast and fresh love this place always good quality

Popped in after a show and were given a table. Place was packed. Buzzing atmosphere, delicious authentic food. Like nights out used to be. Fantastic!

Pizzas were lovely, cheesy chips were pricey for what you got, portion should be double the size for the price. Food was on time as per the delivery slot but 60-90 minutes is ridiculous when it’s less than a mile away!!

Great spot for authentic italian food! The inferno pizza was amazing. Nice thin crust and not too spicy!

I set delivery for 18:30 and it arrived at about 18:34 maybe so pretty much spot on. The meat was nice and hot, chips were hot and crispy and salad was fresh and chilled. I asked for specific sauces in my notes and I got them, overall nice and would order again

The waitress has zero percent in personality, it really felt like she did not want to be there. She's always the same, every time we go. Food was very bland, needed more seasoning. Hadn't been for a few years but thought we'd give it another try, won't go back. There are other Italian restaurants in the area that have much better food and better staff. The whole venue could do with a refurb too.

Been getting take away for some time from here as it's just easier with the little ones. Amazing food and great service

It is a few years since our last visit and it didn’t disappoint.We didn’t have a booking and it was a Saturday evening but the staff kindly managed to find us a table.The service is brilliant.Speedy delivery of food and very attentive.The food was delicious and plenty on offer for vegans.

Had a lovely lasagne followed by 3 enormous profiteroles with a rich chocolate sauce. Everyone was very happy with their food and the environment and staff was warm & friendly. Plenty of delisious looking option to chose from and the complementary bread and black olive & garlic tapinard were really nice. Lots of family groups as well and almost full which is always a good sign.

My wife took me to Brio for dinner on 26th Aug for my birthday. Quality of food 10/10! We had the calzone (with some extra chicken) and also the veal. Wonderful. Wine wise the bottles of red start at around £30 we shared the merlot and it was light and refreshing and for us went perfectly. Thank you, we will be visiting again!

Pizza King's are CONSISTENTLY THE BEST takeway around. Food is ALWAYS early. and top quality.

Always visit when in Harrogate First class service

Gianni’s is an amazing place to go for some italian food!! All staff are incredible and we had a really friendly welcome. Both me and my partner have nut allergies and this was understood and staff were very good with handling this. Would definitely recommend eating here!! Thank you Gianni Brio’s!!!

Recommended by friends and we had a lovely evening. Excellent food and fantastic service. Thank you

I love pizza kings always the best food delivery is always early or on time..nice and hot ..fresh everytime wouldn't get better anywhere else. thanks guys.

Great food amd service as always thankyou

This Italian restaurant is the best Italian anywhere I have been. The food is simply fantastic. The staff are very friendly and attentive. I definitely recommend it. 👌🏾

ok but wrong sauce base not tomato more like barbecue

Having lived in Harrogate for almost 10 years, we decided to try a different Italian Restaurant. We decided on Gianni's Brio on Kings Road. It was a pleasant surprise. The staff welcomed us and were attentive. We had Pane Speciale to start, it was delicious. I had Polla alla Crema - The roast potatoes were outstanding - Just like my mum used to make. My partner had Pappardelle Romagnola, he said it was amazing. We don't normally accept the added service charge (10%) but we felt on this occasion it was worth it. We will be back.

Superb authentic Italian food, excellent Seafood pasta, really flavourful. The owner is a character and takes time to come and chat to all the diners. Service is good - friendly but not intrusive, and fast and attentive. Very good value as well.

Great food, excellent service. Loved it. The dough for pizza and calzone was superb.

Really good food friendly helpful staff.

I love Gianni’s. Always a warm welcome, consistently great food, wine and service. Highly recommended

Visited yesterday for the first time, and would definitely return. My pizza was amazing, and my husband's calzone was the best. Reasonably priced for a lovely dining experience.

Fantastic quality and value for money as always. Early as usual. Brilliant service.
