Pacinos in Cheshire West and Chester

Best meal i have had for quite a while. Lovely people and great food. I cant say enough good things tbh as Pacinos is very very good value too. Top tip the house reds the best value wine ive come across.

What a fantastic little place this is, found this by chance when another restaurant was fully booked. Food was first class, as was the service.

We had a lovely meal at Pacino’s. The 2 course mid week meal value is excellent. I had the Lobster Ravioli, slight chilli spice but delicious. Support our local Chester family run restaurants mid week, let’s keep this little gem around!

Good, tasty Italian food. Good price/quality ratio

Me and my boyfriend came in last night and the blonde lady and the man that served us last night were so welcoming and the food was absoloutley gorgeous and it came out so quick x

Having been to many many restaurants in my 46 years I have experienced very good and some not so good foods and quality of foods , pacinos was the best food I have ever had the pleasure to eat , I rarely give reviews but this place is in another league , the menu caters all needs and has plenty of choices plus there’s a daily special on their chalk boards which includes all courses , to top it off the prices are mesmerising as I have never had such quality food at such competitive prices ! To say I was blown away would be an understatement and I will definitely be going again and highly recommend Pacinos to all that visit Chester 🏆

Excellent food and very friendly service.

Another annual trip to Chester, another spectacular meal! 12 of us were accommodaded for and the service and food was second to none. Thank you!!

Food a little bland and not nice

Had a lovely family meal here last night celebrating my brothers birthday. Me and my family have been coming here for years and the quality is always consistent. Tasty classic italian dishes, not trying to be a pretentious restaurant, just really good homecooked food at reasonable prices, along with brilliant service and a calming ambience. I would recommend this hidden gem in Chester!

Visited this lovely family run restraint tonight. Great atmosphere, great service and fabulous food. Smells were lovely when you enter, made to feel extremely welcome and great price for lovely food. Definitely recommend, off the beaten track but well worth the visit. Thankyou. Shaun and Liesl ❤️👍

Value for money.great food and service

Always a warm welcome, crab cakes are the best I've had anywhere.

This is truly a hidden gem, a legend in Italian food in Chester. I have been wanting to try this place for years. Finally got there and wasn't disappointed ! We went mid week and they did a special menu of 2 courses for £15 !! Great value. We had goats cheese bruchetta, risotto and lasagne. It was delicious, will definitely return. The host was so knowledgeable and attentive, a pleasure to attend for dinner.

A great find in Chester. Fabulous food from an interesting menu. Very enjoyable evening in a very busy restaurant. Very friendly staff and excellent prices. We will be back

Went to Pacino’s after reading recommendations on Trip Adviser and it didn’t disappoint. Food was lovely, staff were brilliant and it had a lovely atmosphere. We liked it so much we ate there again on our second night in Chester and look forward to visiting again on our next time in Chester.

First visit very nice, second last week terrible 😢

Fantastic spot, a little out of the way but it’s a little gem! Staff were great, service great and food was top notch!! Definitely recommend if your looking for a chilled atmosphere with fantastic food

Beautiful food at a great price. Really friendly and helpful staff. Go and eat here! 😎

Excellent food, excellent service, excellent price.

Always a great little place to have a meal, good food, great staff and of course good company

Cannot fault the service or the delicious food. Restaurant was clean and inviting with a lovely family feel. Varied menu to choose from and plenty of on the day specials. Definitely recommend and hope to return

A lovely family restaurant. Good food and good value.

Went midweek and had the early bird menu. Restaurant was warm and comfortable even though the weather was freezing outside. The four of us each ordered a different starter and main course. The beer was nice, the food was lovely, the service was efficient without being intrusive and the bill less than we were expecting. This family run restaurant is a well concealed gem where you wouldn't think to look and we will definitely be back!

A lovely meal enjoyed by us all.

Always a great meal with daily specials which change frequently. Great value

I had the pleasure of dining at a restaurant that exceeded my expectations in every way. Despite its unassuming exterior, the interior of the restaurant radiated an incredibly cozy and inviting atmosphere. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the fillet steak we ordered. What impressed me the most was the fact that, despite our group of five each requesting different levels of doneness, the kitchen managed to flawlessly accommodate our individual preferences. Each steak was cooked to perfection, tender and juicy, and surpassing our expectations and showcasing the chef's culinary expertise. The restaurant also stands out for its affordable prices, which pleasantly surprised me given the high quality of the food, comfortable ambiance, and excellent service. It truly offers great value for the dining experience it provides. Overall, my experience at this restaurant was exceptional, and I can confidently say that I will definitely be returning. I would highly recommend to others.

I went here with a group of friends (8 of us in total). The staff were fabulous and as entertaining as we were. The food was more than delicious and extremely well priced. It's a shame I live so far away otherwise this would be a very regular visit ! Book, you won't be disappointed 😊

Great little family run restaurant

Brilliant restaurant,great food and service. Emphasis on getting patrons to the Little Theatre Chester on ti.e for the performance.

Out of the way comfortable Italian experience, very much like a Trattoria. The service and ambience are very good, with good quality well prepared food. Nice and tidy inside with maybe a slight refresh needed in the gents…but only a niggle. Prices are keen considering the home cooked quality. On my list for a return visit.

Beautiful place, wonderful staff. Atmosphere is superb. Very accommodating, service is fantastic.

We booked after chester races cancelled im sure people would drive past here and decide not to stop that would be a big mistake the staff were fantastic and the food was top quality one of the best fillets ever there was 9 of us and no one had a bad word in fact everybody was delighted with the food and had a great night gem of a place

From the outside the restaurant doesn't look very inviting but once inside you're transported into a very traditional Italian restaurant. From being seated you're made to feel part of the family, the atmosphere is perfect. The menu is vast and has so much to choose from we can't wait to go back.

Lovely friendly staff. Great variety of dishes to choose from. All served promptly and piping hot. Good value for money.

Haven't been for a while but Pacino's is great. You aren't sure you are in the right place when you arrive as its literally part of a block of flats. Once you get in the staff and food make you understand this true hidden gem.

The exterior of the restaurant could look more inviting. We were a bit unsure when we arrived, but the interior has lots of personality. Overall, it was a good meal and great value for money.

We were disappointed to find that some of the menu items we were interested in trying were not available. Additionally, the cuisine did not feel authentically Italian, as the flavors were rather bland. The desserts served were more reminiscent of English desserts rather than Italian ones. The host seemed to be in a hurry, and when we inquired about the availability of Italian desserts, he simply responded that it wasn't something customers desired.

Great food at a reasonable price and good. Friendly service.

It lived up to its reviews. A great family run restaurant was immediately obvious when I tasted the tomato sauce accompanying my gnocchi.Good wine list which was well priced. Looking forward to my next trip to Chester.

Absolutely beautiful, Pizzas were amazing 😋 x

Great food and friendly and efficient service

A five minute walk from the centre of Chester well worth the effort. The food was really good and very reasonably priced. Well worth it if you like Italian food.

Probably the best Italian in chester

Doesn't look nice on the outside but really nice on the inside

Lovely warm and friendly owners who went the extra mile to give us directions, and to sing happy birthday to my husband without me asking. Great food to! Would definitely recommend this place.

Omg little gem. A 10 minute walk from the centre and it's just fab. It was packed at 730pm, a great sign. Starters, mains and dessert were all amazing. The people who work/own the business we're so friendly.

What an absolute gem this place is! The food was fabulous and the atmosphere relaxed. Staff were friendly and just the right mix of attentive without being too much. We enjoyed our visit immensely

Regulars here simply because of the excellent food and service

Buena comida y muy buen servicio

Pleasant food, lovely family vibe

Great food, atmosphere and service. Would highly recommend.

Great food! Had a delicious meal here this evening - we were a group of 8 but didn't have to wait long to be served and everyone's meal came out together. All beautifully cooked! Would certainly recommend Pacino's!

Nice little restaurant and beautiful decor. The staff were so friendly and kind. Food was tasty (most of all the homemade cheesecake).

Awesome food, superb friendly service too 😋

Such a lovely little gem hidden away in Chester. Excellent Italian food 🙂

A hidden gem of Chester! This place isn’t much to look at from the outside but is by far one of the best places to eat in Chester! Good selection of specials which change and excellent mid week deal on two courses! Ask about the walnut liquor 😉

Can't speak highly enough of this restaurant following my first visit there. As soon as you enter the door it's like being in a restaurant abroad. The decor and the welcome were exactly what you would expect if you were in a high end establishment in Italy. That brings me to the food. I had the crab cakes for my starter which were delicious and the veal for the main which topped of a perfect meal. The staff were very friendly and attentive and we will certainly be back again.

Greg and Debbie always offer a friendly and flexible service been going there along time can't recommend it enough great stuff 👍

Amazing food, - a specials menu to die for but with a regular menu is just as good ! ! Excellent quality, it manages to be cosy but maintain 5 star restaurant standards .. A true hidden gem , my partner and I will definitely be back !

The family and I have been coming here for years. Absolutely adore this place. Always great service and fantastic food and tasty wine. It truly is the hidden gem of Chester, we always recommend Pacino’s to our friends. Took my mum here today for her birthday. As always, we were greeted warmly and seated promptly. I had the house red, the pork ribs and goats cheese bruschetta as a starter and then the lamb shank with a side of super tasty vegetables for the main. And of course I had to have a dessert - cheesecake! Everything was fantastic. Cleared our plates as always. Pacino’s really makes you feel like part of the family. You’re welcome in with open arms and served such delicious food. We’re all so ready for a nap now. We’ve had a lovely evening. Always come here if you get the chance.

Delicious food and great service!

Delicious food had prawns to start and veal escalope for main. Both dishes were excellent. Our party of 4 all had different meals and all had delicious food served by lovely staff.

Dirty filthy one star hygeine report check out the state of the kitchen.....stay clear of this place

Really friendly staff and great atmosphere. Really accommodating to gluten intolerance. I had a gluten free margarita and it was the best GF pizza I've ever eaten!

First time there and won’t be last. Absolutely superb meal , really delicious. Can’t praise it enough.

Wonderful hosts, wonderful food and a really nice atmosphere.

lovely little family restaurant, no particular vegan menu but they will happily inform you what you can have and change things for you

Excellent Italian food and excellent service for a very reasonable price.

Lovely food, lovely atmosphere, lovely staff.

Been going to Pacinos for 30 years, never disappointed, first class food & staff

We are from Bristol and we were travelling up to Chester for the night and was trying to find a traditional Italian restaurant near where we were staying. I called Pacinos to book a table prior to our visit and the lady on the phone was so lovely and so helpful, told us where to park explained about the area which on first glance is a little run down but this is no reflection on the restaurant. The staff were so friendly and the food was AMAZING!! If I’m ever in Chester again I would 100% come back! 10/10

Nice waitresses and small but interesting menu with specials on blackboard. Food was very tasty freshly made pasta etc. Recommend

Fantastic food and great service.. what a great find on our trip to Chester this weekend 🥰😋

First visited here 10 years ago, we were back in Chester and wanted to see if it was as good as the first time. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's damn good food inside. It's worth the journey from the city

Tired of the same chain restaurants? try this unique place, great food, great prices and great service, we had a beautiful Rib Eye Steak, and home made Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli… when customers are piling through the door as soon as it opens, you know it’s good, just wish we lived closer and could make it a regular visit.

Delicious food, great service and a lovely relaxed atmosphere.

Fantastic meal and drinks. Great to return after a while since last visit. One of our favourite restaurants in Chester.

Very pleasant,back after a few years, why I don't know🤔 I suppose because of the central Italian restaurants in Chester everyone forgets this hidden little gem in Newtown.

Great food and service as always! Always lots of choice, good wine list and perfectly cooked....thank you!!

Very nice night and quality food with good standard thank You ☺️

We are regular visitor’s to Pacino’s and always have a lovely time whenever we go! The food and atmosphere never disappoint with the staff being very friendly and helpful! The food is constantly of good quality and is very authentic! It’s testimony to how long the restaurant has been in business and has served the Chester and surrounding areas with wonderful Italian cuisine for many years! I highly recommend Pacino’s for great food and friendly service!

Service terrible very disappointed with food will not be visiting again.

Great food in a pleasant atmosphere also local

Loverly place very friendly people made us feel welcome food was nice definitely recommend

Not a better time to support your local businesses Very nice 👌

Loved it ,very attentive staff and fabulous food at a very reasonable price

Lovely friendly family restaurant with great food

Quality food quality service friendly staff most welcoming enjoyed the whole experience will definitely recommend an will go back.

Absolutely love the food. It has been great every time so far!

Always love the food here and portion sizes are very generous. I love the staff, always friendly and like to get to know their customers, its nice to eat at a family run business. The two courses for £13.50 is something my friend and I always take advantage of, its such good value. Don't understand the negative reviews here, don't believe them myself at all. Love This place!

Love the food here really good service even though they were very busy food excellent will be back after lockdown

Been going here for years. A fantastic hidden jewel. Lovely staff, nice surroundings and the food is fabulous. Nothing is too much trouble.

Good food, delivered quickly, great staff. Was a good night ☺️

Came to Pacinos on recommendation. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal celebrating our Aunts birthday. The staff were brilliant. A perfect evening. Look forward to our next visit

Not bad but not great either, probably could do with slightly better ingredients

Disappointed with our meal and the service last night...definitely not the experience we have had in the past. Service was slow, waited quite a while for someone to take our order. Garlic bread was a chunk of bread with garlic and melted cheese....not the normal at all. Pasta dishes were very small portions. Had to as for cutlery and serviettes. Had to ask for more drinks each time. No one asked if our meals were OK. A large queue was formed at the bar whilst customers were paying their bills at one point...not very socially distant at all. Such a shame as we have been eating here on occasions since it opened in 1986!!!!!!

Not the best Italian food going, but nice food and attentive staff!
