Although the signs on the windows state 1 price, the business picks and chooses when you can have such deal. The rudeness of the male staff makes me never want to return

Food was nice but the the rigatoni pollo was shy of chicken, the linguine with king prawns had 6 king prawns, which was just enough. Portion size was adequate. Service was not as good as it should be. Ordered diet coke, no ice, diet coke with ice came out. Asked to see desert menu, got the menu du.ped on the table no one ever came back to take an order. Black amerucano coffee was nothing special. Overall the atmosphere was interesting the background music went from loud to quiet to overbearing.

As ladies that lunch weekly we were delighted to find an actual restaurant open at lunchtime rather than having to eat at pubs that serve food. What a pleasurable experience eating there was. The menu was both varied and extensive. Any pasta or pizza at £6 95 at lunchtime was amazing value. The staff were so friendly and the food and service superb. The decor was bright, light and full of Italian touches even including the background music. The only downside to this terrific venue is a lack of nearby parking. We will be back to work our way through the menu. A jewel of a restaurant!

We recently made our second visit, having had such a great experience first time around but the friends with whom we went have been on several more occasions. The staff are friendly and attentive and the food is very reasonably priced with sizeable portions. A definite go-to among our friends when we're in town

We ordered take away from here with 2 x gluten free pizzas and 2 x garlic breads plus a pasta. We are not fussy eaters and it was revolting. The dough was dry and powdery and so hard and crispy you could barely bite into it. Even the toppings were poor. The pasta was watery and tasteless. They also did not even remotely try and keep the pizzas gluten free. They didn’t put them on trays at all! Just put them in with the wheat pizzas. Yes I’m well aware it all goes in the same oven but at least try to not cross contaminate it underneath! That’s where you would get the most cross contamination!! Where it directly touches the wheat pizzas. What also irritated me is the girl on the phone told me it would be on a tray. I wouldn’t have bothered had I known that. Just to top it off I ordered 1 x tomato and 1 cheese garlic bread and I got 2 cheese ones. Not that they were edible . I think this place just needs to not advertise gluten free food as it’s inedible. The staff also need education on allergens. They have all the signage but no idea at all. I can think of better ways to waste £35!

I order from Gusto Italia fairly regularly - Their pizzas, garlic breads are fantastic… (I can’t comment on the rest of their food range, as I haven’t tried it all) Their wines and beer are also great, for the price point they are at - And the delivery service is fantastic, especially based on other service providers on Just Eat - Gusto Italia always stick to their time slot for delivery and more than often it arrives early…. All in all, fantastic homemade food, great drinks and spot on delivery

I order every week ( takeaway) and every week the dish ( spaghetti pescatora) gets worse. My last one was Thursday. Clam shells - empty. Mussel shells - half empty NO prawns at all NO King Prawns when usually there are at least three decent sized half shelled. Burnt & cold Tomatoe garlic bread. Really poor quality seafood. I ordered one the week before which was below average, gave it one more shot on Thursday. No Thanks. Im done. Delivery always prompt & staff nice but the standard of food really has dropped Cheesecake ordered two weeks ago -all I can say is never again. Won't be coming back again for a meal or takeaway.

We had a lovely evening celebrating a friend's 60th birthday. We had lovely food, the staff were very friendly and we were at the restaurant for quite a while, so not rushed out like you are at some restaurants where they are waiting for your table. They even went beyond the call of duty in helping us celebrate our friend's birthday when they brought the cake out that I had taken as a surprise, by how this was done (music, singing, clapping and cheering at the table). We have not been there for a while but hope to be back soon.

Spent nearly £100 on my order, for it to be delivered squashed with all the pizza toppings all over the box. Called the restaurant to inform them, they said they’d come and collect it, take it back to the restaurant to check, and re-send new food out. This whole process took far too long. Delivery driver turned up 2hrs later. The owner was so rude on the phone. The delivery driver however was really lovely and understood our frustration. Lovely restaurant but wouldn’t order to my home again.

Whilst I don't expect " fine dining", this "restaurant" is the worst place I have ever eaten in. From the outset the service was unbelievably slow even though the place was quiet. I ordered mushrooms as a starter, they arrived and looked very dry and overcooked and had clearly been keeping warm under a grill or in the oven. Waited almost an hour for the main course to arrive - salmon in a cream/prawn sauce. The salmon, again, was overcooked and dry. The rice was a pile of stodge and inedible. On expressing my dissatisfaction with the waiter, I was met with total disinterest and in fact he was rude and condescending. He advised me that is what real Italian rice should be.....I don't think so. I was going to ask for a doggy bag but even my two labradors would have turned their noses up. There are several excellent Italian restaurants around Preston, this is certainly not one of them. Good food, customer service, a friendly manner and a pleasant persona is something you will not find here, Avoid !

Read a few reviews before going. Didn't read thoroughly. Awful service, and dire food. Menu said 2 courses for 17.95, but questioned the waiter and he provided different menu. First red flag. Ordered king prawns, said served with garlic, lemon and chili Jam - when the dish arrived, the prawns were swimming in some kind of soup, tasted like sugar had been added, the prawns were overcooked and mushy, couldn't eat. Asked about the steak pizzaola and ordered, after waiter assured, was steak with a tomato sauce. An hour later, a dish arrived that was lukewarm and looked nothing like any steak pizzaola it had little taste was lukewarm the meat was in strips and it was tough as old boots. About 10 roast potatoes sat aside the food, they looked like they had been dipped in a fryer. Would not go near again.

A delightful, welcoming Italian family-run restaurant where I always receive an attentive and professional service. The prices are very good value and most importantly the food is consistently of a high standard. A wide variety of Italian meals are on offer, the highlight for me being the fish casserole, which is a wonderful, nourishing and delicious dining experience. They also stock a first rate red wine “Amicale” which scores 4.1 on the Vivino wine app and is something I always look forward to. All in all, a cracking restaurant. Well done guys.

Food was really good and we had a lunchtime special of pasta or pizza for £6.95. Service was great during the meal but rude and ignorant before. I would have given it 5 stars but on entering the restaurant at 11:55 for a table booked for 12:00 I was ignored by two male members of staff who walked past me. The guy in the kitchen tried to get their attention but failed so I had to stand in the empty restaurant like a spare part. Eventually after one of the male members of staff stopped faffing about with cutlery he came over and said they weren't open yet. Then don't open the door until you are!!. Not a very good welcome to a paying customer. Having said that the meal was excellent and the place was packed with happy customers half an hour later. I think I would return because the food was excellent but the welcome was disappointing.
