Luciano's at Chorley in Chorley

Ok, so booked a table for 4 no problem. Taken to the table. Problem. 4 of us sat on what can only be described as a table for 2. The ones near the windows. No chance. No chance for 2 drinks, a bottle of wine and cooler and then food. Impossible. Even the staff agreed. Speaking of staff the young lad with with curly permed hair at the front even realised this and looked to look ing us. This lad was Lovely and a credit to the service. However the older girl , maybe the manager with blonde shoulder length hair was ignorant. She would not wait until we selected a wine off the menu and said she would return. She didn’t. Instead just stood at the side of the bar watching all the other younger ones do the work. If she is not a boss or the manager then I would show her the p45 as she was not welcoming and had a very long face as she clearly did not want to be there. So the food service was good. No issues. The food itself was good. No complaints. The complaints we had was ordering a bottle of wine at £36 which costs just £11.95. That is very excessive. Then when the final bill came it was a £135 for bottle of wine, 2 cokes, a child’s moktail, 3 pizzas, 2 garlic bread, 2 fries and a small pasta dish. Oh I forgot the big £12 plus service charge added without consent or notice. Not happy. So all in all it’s not put us off but not happy about a service charge added without explanation and be careful about the wine. You will be paying 3 times as much for your bottle. Robbery

Lovely food, excellent service 👌

Always have the best time, the staff are amazing with my 2 year old and the food is always spot on!

Beautiful food. There are some unusual food combinations. Very refreshing, not just the same menu choices as all the other Italian restaurants. Although the classics are still available

Wonderful Italian restaurant. Everyone at the table ordered different food and everyone loved their dishes.

Love the food and the staff were very nice and funny too.

Dined here on a Friday night with no advanced booking. The staff were happy to sit us at the bar whilst we chose a drink and glanced at the menu which we were more than happy to do. Our server was very friendly and polite and helped us select a lovely bottle of red. After having a relax at the bar and discus the delicious options and a parties intolerances we were led to our table. Food was very nice with plenty of gluten free options and our server was exceptionally knowledgable of the menu. We had a lovely evening with delicious food and tasty wine. I would recommend and I will be back :) Thankyou for a wonderful evening with personable interaction and not a QR code in sight!

This is the BEST resturant i have been to recently. The service is exelent and they notice everything that is wrong. I would defidently come here again.

My neice booked this restaurant for her anniversary meal for the family. What a lovely experience! There was around 25 of us, we had pre ordered our starters and mains which all came out nice and hot and on time. Very friendly staff made us feel very welcome and the food was very tasty, a great variety on the menu, pizza base/ garlic breads were perfect. Will definitely be returning in the near future. Thanks Luciano's.

First time for us and was fantastic, food was amazing and the staff are brilliant,special thank you to Giuseppe who looked after us all evening 😀

Amazing food and cheap, friendly staff can't do enough for you. Would well recommend. 👌

Super busy Italian in Chorley town centre. Good service

Please stop adding service charge on what is already an expensive dinner-this is why i have given it a low rating-is just greedy as prices are already high and they don’t ask but just add it automatically.

Lovely place, great service, nice food.

Proper food in the culinary desert that is Chorley town centre. Can’t recommend it highly enough!!

excellent service and food. well worth a visit. was quiet but it was 12.00 lunchtime.

Best meal we have had out in Chorley for a while. Me and the wife both had the tagliatelle diavola. Only £12 and we got loads of steak in it. We will be going back again soon

It's ok! It's not very Italian but the place is nice and the staff are great.

Great food and service! Calm atmosphere. I've been there with my partner several times now, it has to be our favourite place!

Great service awesome food highly recommended

Me and my partner had booked for 7pm but had got there early at 6:45, wasn’t an issue, immediately sat us and handed us our menus. We started off with a couple of espresso martinis before ordering a calamari starter, gnocci main and spaghetti carbonara main. I’d never had calamari and I quite enjoyed it, my partner said it was the best he’d had in a long time! Our mains were spot on too! Couldn’t fault them! Afterwards we squeezed in a sweet treat, me ordering profiteroles and my partner ordering the tiramisu, both which tasted amazing! The staff were very attentive throughout and ensured we was happy with everything too! Everything was perfect! Came to paying, it came to £70 with a service charge of £6 which I wasn’t aware of so we tipped in cash aswell, other than that, we were made up with our service and food and would definitely be back again!

Spot on....got in no problem...that was THE best pollo porchini I've ever had...11 out of 10...will 100% be back...and price was fair.👍👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🍻

The staff speaking Italian was like we were back in Rome They’re attentive as well The food were good Finishing with a gelato was great

Very nice food. Went with family and they loved the pizza, said the salame was the best they’d had. I had the carbonara which was abundant and tasty - could have done without the chicken though

Hardly anyone in but had to wait..My starter was not fresh and my husband's celery soup unedible..it looked like ice sludge and tasted of nothing .he sent it back and got Pate instead which was ok.Shared a pizza 🍕 as main which was ok .2 glasses of wine..bill came to £55 ..wouldn't go again. SORRY

Very nice food and excellent attentive service.

Always great food. A great choice of food on the menu. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The food speaks for itself. 10/10.

What an amazing italian restaurant!! Fi4st time being here and booked for our anniversary meal. Brilliant greeting when we arrived and staff were super friendly. The food was absolutely phenomenal. The starters were just the right size and tasted brilliant. The pasta was so fresh and tasty. Then they tempted us with desserts. Such a good meal and would recommended this to anybody who loves Italian food. We will be back.

We'd returned from holiday and had an extra couple of days off, so visited to finish our holiday off properly. So glad we did, the lobster ravioli is fantastic (one of, if not the, best I've ever had) and the pizzas are excellent!!! Service was great, just enough to know you're being looked after, without being intrusive. We're so lucky to live in Chorley with this on our doorstep, already planning our next visit!

Been a few times so that says it all really .

I have been to Lucianos a few times now and I have always enjoyed it. This evening, we booked to celebrate my daughter's 11th birthday. I arrived in the afternoon to drop off balloons and a cake which was no problem at all. When we arrived the staff made a big fuss of my daughter who was very adamant that they knew it was her birthday and the service was impeccable throughout. As a large group we shared two portions of garlic bread with cheese between us to start (highly recommended) and had an array of pizzas, pastas, and a steak as our mains all of which were divine. I'm so pleased I chose Lucianos to host a family celebration. We had an amazing evening and I definitely now have this in mind for future events! Highly recommended and kudos to all of the staff who ensured high-quality food and service throughout.

Fab place, lovely staff and always amazing food x

Came out for a birthday meal, our waiter Aaron was amazing, friendly and courtious, he served our food with great customer service and our expectations was blown out of the water as he catered to our every needs. We will definitely be coming again and will be spreading the news of the amazing service and excellent customer service.

Lovely meal and great service by Aaron will definitely be back.

Great meal on a very busy Saturday night. Staff attentive and friendly. Very nice food. Definitely worth a visit!

Had a lovely anniversary meal very reasonably priced, great service all round superb night

Thought I would try this Italian restaurant in the centre of Chorley. Heard mixed reviews, so I thought I would review it for myself. Arrived at the restaurant to be asked if we had a booking, we hadn't but didn't expect it to be too much of a problem. The waiter was a little stand offish and made us feel like an inconvenience but found us a table ( of which there were a few). Once seated, we waited 30 minutes to order drinks and a main. We waited another 40 minutes for our food and drinks to arrive despite prompting the waiter we had been waiting for a while. The food was good quality but nothing you couldn't find at another local Italian. Once we had finished our meal and drinks, we then waited another 30 minutes to be approached by a waiter who offered dessert. We politely declined and asked for the bill. No one returned for another 20 minutes, so we just walked to the counter and paid. Overall the food was good quality but the atmosphere and staff customer service was much to be desired.

Extremely friendly and inviting staff. From starter to desert it was all excellent. Well done.

I have been here twice now. The food is hit and miss a little. The first time I came with my Mrs everything was PERFECT, but last time we went, the garlic bread with cheese was very greasy and we didn't really enjoy our mains either. I asked for my steak medium, but it came medium rare or pretty close to rare. It is a nice place and everyone is very helpful but the food needs to be more consistent. I don't know if they just have different chefs. Maybe that's what it is. Anyway, apart from that, it's a great place.

Had a lovely evening with friends. Food was as good as ever and service on top form. They even made me my favourite cocktail which isn't on their menu, Dark and Stormy, try it !

The food here is absolutely fantastic as is the ambience of the restaurant and the waiters are very attentive, the only thing that surprised us was when we were presented with the bill on our second visit to be told there was a service charge. Considering that it was Valentine’s Day, we felt we were put on the spot and we paid the service charge. To be perfectly honest, this has put us off going back. There is nothing bad to be said about the food or the staff

Had the tagliatelle with sea bass, genuinely lovely, crispy skin with fork tender yet not overcooked flesh, and seemingly fresh pesto. Genuinely impressed. The staff was friendly and a little theatrical with the cheese and pepper, which I appreciate despite how annoying it must be for the staff. Throughly recommend.

No allergen menu provided despite asking on the phone if they have them as I have a severe nut allergy. staff were unhelpful and huddled together just talking amongst themselves instead of helping or anything. Food portions were really small

First time here... very impressed.. really buzzing atmosphere even at a 17.30 booking. Food was good, great selection and portions were spot on! The. lasagne was HUGE!

My visit to Lucianos in Chorley was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted warmly by the staff, who provided top-notch service throughout our meal. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. The ambiance was elegant yet cozy, creating the perfect atmosphere for a memorable dining experience. I highly recommend Lucianos to anyone looking for outstanding Italian cuisine in Chorley. Can't wait to dine here again!

Great to find an Italian restaurant excellent staff and fantastic food

Really great food if you’re looking for a fantastic night out I recommend here . Absolutely brilliant experience

Great food. Pasta beautiful. Pizza dough a bit too thick. But tasty. Ice cream, 😋

The Best Italian restaurant in the town. Great food, great atmosphere and service. Will definitely visit again. Recommend this place.

I was just looking for a place to fill my stomach before a football match. After walking around in chorley town centre and seeing this restaurant, I decided to try it. I ordered a set meal with the starters - Costolette do Maiale (slow cooker pork ribs) and mains - Risotto Funghi, totally is £18. The pork ribs were so tender that the meat fell off the bones easily. But it seemed a little too salty in taste. Risotto Funghi is sticky and delicious, and well in seasoned. I would say it is one of the best Italian restaurant in Lancashire, great food and service. Definitely worth visiting again.

A very pleasant atmosphere, good service and reasonable prices

First time here with my Son for an evening meal Food was delicious piping hot and freshly made We both had different mains and the portions where very generous Thank you for lovely dinner very well priced will be visiting again Christopher

Been to Lucianos numerous times, the food as always was amazing but today the service was extremely poor from the two waiters on duty. The young lady who escorted us to our table and took our drinks order was efficient and polite. We waited at least 15 to 20 minutes for someone to take our food order, although restaurant wasn't overly busy. After eating our meal one of the waiters came to clear our table, my husband asked if I would like a sweet, after 20minutes I still hadn't received a menu, so my husband asked the young lady for our bill. After it was paid then the waiter came with the dessert menu, no explanation. A thoroughly disappointing visit.

Food OK nothing more. Service appalling,said it was shift change but had to cancel desserts and coffee. Not planning to go back.

Amazing food with very attentive staff…we had the pasta with fillet streak and the steak was very tender and soft! My new favourite dish!

Went here for the first time , my husband took me and my parents for my birthday, fabulous atmosphere,superb service and food,highly recommend,we definitely will be coming back here

We had an absolutely brilliant time, the food is excellent, the staff are super friendly and helpful, we will be returning 😁

Excellent food excellent service.

Simple booking process. Service was excellent. Food was delicious and good value. Atmosphere was bustling and vibrant. Some traditional draught ales would be appreciated.

Great food, very good service, the pizza tastes like in Italy, a wonderful place, I will definitely visit again

Was lovely, food was very nice they do gluten free options

Great food, thanks 👍 They wrapped leftovers for me to take away. Very nice.

Popped in for a light lunch. Good service and wonderful food at the right price. Really enjoyed it and would go back again.

The restaurant is beautiful,the staff are very attentive but not intrusive,full marks there,the lovely waitress even tried to give us our tip back as there is a service charge( which I didn't appreciate.) The drinks were lovely,but not having your most expensive bottle of champagne not in stock is a bit of an error.The champagne selection imo is poor.Pol Roger is so much better than Moet. Now the food,the arrancini was bland and lacking in seasoning or the taste of good risotto rice.The garlic tomato bread on the reverse was very salty ( the dough was lovely) my Husband sent his steak back as it was tough and extremely rare.This was dealt with very well and taken off the bill.The puddings were just "ok" your bread and butter Italian puddings tiramisu and canolli should be better than ok.All in all we had a good night,the staff were exceptional,but the food wasn't what I was expecting,more vegetarian pasta dishes and starters required ( please not goats cheese) A simple tomato spaghetti can be a show stopper if done correctly......

Amazing place! Wonderful stuff! Delicious food! Highly recommended!

This is such a great restaurant for Chorley - perfect location, amazing food and the place is so welcoming. The pizza and pasta here is fantastic and not ridiculously priced. Perfect place to get some Italian before a movie!

Lovely little Italian. The food was good and the service was nice. It's not the biggest restaurant, but it didn't feel overcrowded.

Booked a table for after a visit to cinema which is next door. Brilliant service and the food was amazing.

Bloody lovely.... never been here, but thought we'd give it a go.... couldn't take too many photos coz i was hungry . Reasonably priced.... good food and good drinks..... service was great too.

Lovely place, lovely food, lovely staff!

Very clean plesent nice for a coffee and or a meal .

So disappointed with our experience. The restaurant itself looked nice and the atmosphere was good but the positives ended there. The food was very poor.the music was blaring. We had a garlic bread starter and the garlic was burnt and the bread soaked in oil. My pasta was hard and chewy with a jar like sauce and my husbands was very spicy with little other flavour. The service was terrible. We did not get any plates for our starter and it was very difficult to get the attention of the waiters throughout the meal. Long waits to order and once we finally did, the waiters did not return and we had to request the same again. Mandatory service charge added to bill, certainly not deserved, but we paid anyway. We will definitely not return.

Top quality ,took my nephew and his partner.All 3 of us loved it our food was fantastic with great service .

My wife and I enjoyed our lunch, we will be back the staff were lovely as was the food.

Great food. Best Italian in chorley

Not too bad but certainly had better

I wouldn’t book here if you are in a large group. It’s a shame as I enjoy the food, but we were completely scammed on my birthday when we split the bill between all of us, to then have £200 plus left to pay. They have no way of tracking how much has been paid, and the woman who was working that night gave us 3 different totals left to pay, they didn’t have a clue. My mate ended up forking out to end the dispute. My friend had the same experience unfortunately, so it isn’t just us this has happened to. Even though I like the food, I won’t go back there again. They need a better system for group bookings, as there was no communication. It felt like it was in their best interests not to track what was left to pay, and seemed like they were making it up as they went along.

I really enjoyed this place. Really good food and the service was right on point.Great first impression I will definitely come here again definitely recommend

Because its Christmas very busy with a large table right beside us so very noisy , and we right by the coffee and sweet station,if i return i will be asking for another table !!

Friendly staff, prompt service despite being very busy and food was good.

Fabulous food, fantastic service! My daughter worked in hospitality/catering and was VERY impressed with the service. Music was a little loud but it's Friday.

The food was alright I was part of a large party but the service was well planned and efficient very friendly team.

Dropped in for lunch and was very impressed. The food was great, delicious in fact. We will be back for more!

My wife has been here multiple times. First visit for me, and I was not disappointed at all. My wife treated me to breakfast at Luciano's, and it was delicious. Staff were polite and attentive. I had the salmon and the breakfast bruscetta, and my wife, the Nutella pancake. All was fantastic, with 2 cappuccinos to finish. Can't wait for my next long weekend off as we'll definitely be coming back.

Exceptional food, great stuff, always with a smile on their faces, 100% recommend if you want italian food

Had a lovely meal staff very efficient

Excelent place. Super delicious food 🤩

Great food and amazing staff. Valerio was very attentive especially in regards to food allergy!

Love the food here! The gnocchi etna is always a winner. Larger is quite pricey but overall lovely place.

Works Christmas meal so I assumed it would be 'formula food' with more focus on getting as many people in and fed but was completely wrong. Staff couldn't have done any more for us. No rush to clear the table and didn't mind some arriving late due to bad weather plus opening our secret santa presents! My food was fantastic - had the turkey Christmas main which had obviously had some time taken over preparation, quality of ingredients and portion size. Always someone around to get us extra drinks and the price was bang on for what we got.

Went for a meal before going to the cinema.it was in December and very festively decorated for Christmas With alot of partys so had a great atmosphere.

We had a lovely meal last night after going to cinema, my granddaughter and family enjoyed their pizzas i had salmon on a bed of mixed salad ,fruit and dressing very tasty staff great been a few times and will be back ,thanks

Fantastic restaurant with a delicious food and brilliant service.

Amazing service and the best gluten and dairy free food I’ve had for a long while. I would highly recommend:

Lovely place for brunch, lunch or evening meal, friendly staff and decent prices

A fantastic atmosphere and it was busy. We went on a 40th birthday approx 40 invited, lovely meals and the staff very polite and helpful. Definitely be back again

Just had coffee normally visit Bolton middlebrook

Called in for brunch for the first time, the coffee was excellent quality, I had the crepes absolutely delicious and fresh, excellent wheelchair access throughout the restaurant. We will definitely be returning

lovely food at this place however they ruin it by giving you tiny portions, we all left hungry and had to make something else to eat once home which is such a shame.

Last night (Tuesday 7th November '23) was our first visit and certainly won't be our last. Couldn't fault it in any way and was surprised how busy (Buzzing) it was for a Tuesday night. 🥘🍷🍕
