Was asked way too many times how I was doing, how its going etc (maybe 7 times) it’s great to be attentive but frustrating when you want to catch up with a friend and constantly interrupted. It also felt like we were taking too long with our starter because they asked us twice if we were done and by the third time we gave up and said yes and the main course came straight away and was cold so they cooked the main too early and left it out for it to go cold. It’s a shame as the food was good but service was not great

incredibly overpriced - 10.95 for a tiny salad with about 3 halved cherry tomatoes (Burrata Salad). £17 spag Bol and it was again a tiny portion. Pasta was not fresh, nothing special which made it extra disappointing for the price. Also an hour wait for our food

The quality of the food is okay, but the 50% discount in the advertisements on major social platforms is a bit dishonest. There is an inconspicuous card on the counter, which says in Italian that there will be additional charges for ordering the following dishes. There is only about 25% off when paying the bill. There are actually better restaurants to choose from at this price. I don't think I'll eat here again, just this once.

I love the appetizer! The tomatoes are fresh and make it a good start for the meal. However, the main course kinda let me down because fried chicken is tasteless. It’s such a shame as I enjoyed the bruschetta a lot Service is lovely and welcoming. Atmosphere is so cozy too. I may go back and try another branch on Liverpool Street

Quite possibly the worst restaurant experience I have ever had! Pre booked for a party of 11 for 8pm and at the start everything went really well, very welcoming and friendly staff. Got seated no problem. Took our drinks order which came out swiftly. Took our starters and mains order then that's where it went downhill. The starters came out, well some of them! 2 were missing and by the time they came out everyone had already finished! Table got cleared and then the manager appears and says they don't have any pizza dough to make pizzas! What Italian restaurant doesn't have enough pizza dough and why did they not say that when we came in or when they took our order!!!! By this time we had been sat in the restaurant for 1hr 15mins. The manager said we could have other items but the guests who ordered pizza did so cos they didn't like anything other than pizza. Manager then told me my deposit has been used for the bill when I was told on the phone it could be refunded to my bank account. He then spent an age sorting everything out and we eventually left the restaurant at 9:45 with no apology and still needing to find somewhere to have some food! I would avoid this place at all costs!!!!!

Worst experience we have ever had. Took an hour and a half for the manager to return to our table to say there was no pizzas left and the food had not even started to be cooked. Staff was rude. Really do not advise any one to go.

AVOID!!!!!! So disappointed. We pre booked a table for 11 people for 8pm on a Saturday night. Everyone ordered. Some starters came out late which left people waiting for food. We sat for 1 hour and 20 minutes after we placed our order for them to tell us there was no pizza dough (6 people ordered pizza) left to fulfil our order. By this time it was 9:30pm and we were left with no food and unable to book another restaurant. I only left one star because I had too. After all of the carry on we were offered our drinks for free which were soft drinks and table water. Disgusting that they left us sitting for over an hour before anyone notified us. Shocking service!!!!!!!!!

Table for 11 booked for 8pm. Drinks and starters ordered, we were told no garlic bread then changed their minds to say they had them. Took 11 main meal orders, 5 of which were pizzas. Kitchen closes at 9:30, 9:20 they decide they had no dough so we couldn't pizza and they hadn't even started to cook the other meals!!!! Nothing more to say other than AVOID!!!

came last night at 7pm for a meal I was out for a special occasion for my birthday I was with my mum and sister. I would like to say how mortified I am at the service received and also I was waiting 1 hour and 30 mins for food and it still wasn’t there at 8:30pm in the end we decided not to wait any longer we was forced to pay for the drinks with no discount or on the house ,which should of been given really considering we was waiting a hour and 30 mins for food I am really upset because this ruined my night. I kept asking the waiter where the food is they said it coming and it didn’t come this is really bad customer service and I think some training is needed for your staff I was absolutely starving and had to get a takeaway which I shouldn’t have to do on my birthday I should be able to go out have a nice meal

50% discount offer us on, however wheb you get to the restaurant it's on limited items as there is a surcharge on other things which is not stated online so felt a bit robbed. Got a mixed grill which contained beef,, chicken and steak, nothing in the menu said the chicken was coated in tomato sauce so ruined the meal. Ordered fries which came late as I had to chase. Ordered a 1/2 n 1/2 garlic bread,n, half with cheese half with tomato, might aswel of all had tomato on it was that badly made. Added a surcharge on the bill for no service at all Would not come again

The service is very good, but this is the worst tiramisu and vanilla cheesecake I have ever eaten!! There taste very bad. I only took a bite. After talking to the waiter, they didn’t have any measure. Beef ribs taste good, but the other dishes are very mediocre. One lady‘s service is very thoughtful, but the other man seems to be very cold to us.

Lovely place and staff amazing, what let this place down was staff tipping, 10% is automatically added to your bill, after I asked the waiting on staff if they get the full tips I was informed they don’t, they get paid an extra £1 per hour that they work, therefore to get a £10 tip they have to work 10 hours!! I told the member of staff to remove the tip and I gave them £10 cash, I found this totally disgusting, shame on the owners, for this reason I won’t return

One of the worst places for your Christmas meal. On arrival i tried to order drinks for myself and a colleague, but was refused saying we cant have a drink until we had been seated. One of our groups cheese deserts was frozen and send back (why would cheese be frozen) and no toasted bread with the starters as advertised with on all. The mains service didn't get any better. 17 mains served however 15 minutes later and asking twice no seasonal vedge so we all started before the meat went cold. Season vedge came after everyone had finished and each type of vedge served 5 minutes apart. Staff said it was our fault as we had eaten our mains in 2 minutes. Rude. For a first time visitor, safe to say I would never reccomend or go back.

Nice place with good atmosphere but not the greatest for a bottomless brunch. The food is nice enough, but there’s not much of it, and drinks are served so slowly it hardly classifies as bottomless. 4 cocktails in 1½ hours they managed and it’s a very limited choice of drinks too.

Ordering was a mess, missed some of our orders. Food turned up lots of it was cold, small, bad value. Got a calzone for main had some cold cheese, one piece of ham and two pieces of pepperoni. Was basically all bread. Never coming here again. Shocking. The management's attitude stinks. No sorry about the xmas menu. Just poor all around.

What a shambles! It took 2 tries to get 3 drinks. Starters were ok nothing special. 2 of the main meals were cold, the other was a salad. We needed clean cutlery as we had used what was on the table for starters.1 set of cutlery was brought. We returned the 2 cold meals and 2 side dishes. Eventually our meals arrived minus the side dishes so we had to ask for those and of course cutlery . By the time the side dishes came the mains were eaten. We had to leave before our ordered dessert arrived. Staff were walking round with food oblivious to which table it should go to.On asking for the bill we had to argue to only pay for what we had eaten and not pay the service charge. We were seated upstairs and there were several tables that had issues and food removed.

AVOID THIS RESTAURANT AT ALL COSTS. Absolutely APPALLING service and rude staff. A simple order of three drinks was incorrect THREE TIMES. Every course we had was incorrect. One staff member was looking like she was about to cry as every single table being served had an issue with their order. We had to leave without dessert as every single thing had an issue with it which meaning we were delayed leaving the restaurant and we had a show to get to. The staff had the worst attitude I've ever experienced at a restaurant especially the girl with the long hair worn down. None of them had a clue which meal went to which table and the best thing was they tried to charge us a service charge. I can't see this establishment being there much longer. -3/10 experience.

I ate here with a colleague this week. We were both happy with our food. The thing that really stood out was the exceptional service from Dana. It’s the kind of service that I normally only experience at high end restaurants – getting the balance perfectly between being warm and attentive vs over friendly and feeling rushed.

If you're in the mood for Italian done right, Italiana Fifty Five will hit the spot. Let’s break it down: Pasta: Absolutely delicious. You can taste the care put into each bite, like Nonna herself was back there in the kitchen. Perfectly cooked, sauces were rich but not overwhelming. Bravo! Pizza: Solid choice. It won’t exactly have you dreaming about Naples, but the crust was crisp, toppings fresh, and overall a satisfying experience. No complaints. Beef Ribs: Oh, the beef ribs. Marvelous! Tender, juicy, and packed with flavor—this was the unexpected highlight of the meal. An absolute must-try if you're a carnivore. The ambiance is cozy enough, but let’s be honest, you’re here for the food. Service was decent, though you might have to do a little flag-waving for attention during peak hours. Pricing? Not budget-friendly, but worth the splurge for a good meal. In short: come for the pasta, stay for the beef ribs, and save room for pizza. You'll leave happy and probably planning your next visit.

I cannot rate this place highly enough. The drinks are good, the prices are fair, the seating is comfortable, the service is friendly. This is on my must-come-again list for when I return to Manchester. I'd recommend the scratchings as well. They're lovely and crunchy but don't fight you either like some other scratchings do.
