Special place in Ashton. Wasn’t expecting such a high quality restaurant and it was packed out on a Wednesday night. We were lucky to get the last table, I recommend booking

A gem! There are so many superlatives you could use, but let's get straight to the point here, it's just a great place. The food is superb, the service is equally as good and pricing is what you'd expect of a good Italian. Yes it's Ashton and they're charging Manchester prices, but you know what? Who cares when the food is of this quality? Genuinely one of the best Italian eateries around.

Welcome was excellent, seeing other diners food made me realise it was going to be good. The menu was wide but not too extensive to make choice difficult. The wine list was wonderfully Italian with a wide range of regional choice. Atmospheric place and service with a smile and brio !

We have been to Pinocchio’s a number of times . Each time the food, service and overall experience has been fantastic. I felt compelled to write this review having been to San Carlo in Manchester and Pinocchios in the space of a week. I can honestly say Pinocchios beat San Carlo hands down. The food, service and value for money is first class.

We always have a warm welcome when we visit and it never lets us down. They have a good early evening menu Monday to Thursday and a wide selection of Italian wines; we are particularly partial to Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore. It's usually busy though, so be sure to book!

Can’t comment on food but we were not impressed. We booked a table for three for a 21st birthday meal at 6.45 on a Thursday night and well over a week in advance. We turned up just as two “regulars” walked in before us and I held the door open for them and let them enter first. Restaurant was busy with two 4 seat tables and a rubbish 5 seat round table near the bar/in the corridor available only and lo and behold the two regulars were given one 4 seat table in the window and the waiter then tried to seat us in the walkway area. When I questioned this and asked why the two regulars who had taken the table for four or the other decent table I was given a load of crap about those being booked for four and not available, (this with most of the four seat tables with two people sat on them), and despite complaining that we had booked well in advance we were simply not listened to and stonewalled so we walked out. My advice is don’t bother booking for a special occasion, just turn up as it seems they just give tables away to walk ins but be aware they put regulars first. Spoiled the day and sons 21st tbh.

Our absolutely favourite restaurant in England! Visited again tonight. So sad you are about 30miles from us. Wish you would open a restaurant in Nantwich! We love those little extras you provide as well as delicious meals that many restaurants in England have forgotten like checking glasses are not empty and pouring the wine as the glasful goes down, and of course giving the customer a little limoncello at the end of the meal. Those are the little things we love. Keep it up and we will be back again.

Three of us dined yesterday. We asked for a 40 minute break between our starters and mains. Told no problem by the head waiter and just to ask when we wanted our meal preparing. The food turned up after 20 minutes. Seems our table had asked for the mains. No we had not. The head waiter brought the food, I told him "this is a surprise" he said it was to him also. No apology. Our friends sea bass was dry and overdone, my Steak Diane was not hot enough. The fillet steak rossini was well done when the order had been for medium rare. My husband complained and the waiter asked him to check the middle?? What for? It was overdone. A new meal arrived but my husband ate alone as we had finished ours. We were charged half price for the fillet steak but that wasn't the point. The food had been prepared deliberately early because the restaurant didn't want to stay open after 10 p.m. Simple. We won't be returning.

Absolutely top-drawer. The staff and chefs at Pinocchio never fail to impress whenever we visit. We were here for my wife’s birthday meal, the restaurant was quite busy for a Monday night, and we were given a good table near the window downstairs. We all had Calamari to start which was lovely, and the mains were fantastic too. I opted for the Rack of Lamb off the specials board which was delicious, my daughter had the Gamberoni, in which the king prawns were cooked to perfection, and my wife had Monkfish, which she loved. The staff are always pleasant and attentive and we always leave here saying how nice it was. Good to see a local independent Italian restaurant doing so well.

This is about the 4th-5th time I’ve been here, never once had a bad experience, on arriving I’m always greeted with smiles and hellos, service is extremely good, a relaxed yet professional service, the drinks are always fantastic. I’ve eaten a different meal each time I visited, from pasta/ pizza to steaks, and every time I’ve enjoyed the meal so much, myself and my partner the same. You get the feeling that it’s a family run business that care about giving great customer service and delicious food and drinks,

The food is amazing and as a group we have been here several times. However on the last few occasions we have found the staff upstairs to be rude, bossy and hurried. One waitress in particular is very forceful and brusque in her manner. So as a group we have decided it's time to go elsewhere. We will miss the food but not the rude upstairs staff.

Packed Friday night but didn't struggle to book a table for 2 at 7pm a few days before. Every member of staff we encountered was absolutely 'on it' friendly and attentive, and the only time I had to ask for something was the cheque at the end. All 3 courses of food were delicious and I'd highly recommend this independent local restaurant over any well-known chain that you'd find near a cinema or city centre.

New Years Eve - we had an excellent meal and the service was brilliant. We had various starters including mussels, meat balls & soup (we made a mistake and didn't realise the mussels were cooked with chilli which mum can't eat but we were very pleased that the dish was replaced with one cooked without chilli with no fuss and speedily served). We had the fillet steaks and sea bass, all cooked perfectly to everyone's request and finished off with wonderful sweets and can highly recommend the tiramisu and creme brulee. Even though it was very busy the service was great and welcoming. We weren't rushed when we asked for a break. All in all a 5 star experience and the very best start to our New Years Eve celebrations - thanks to all the staff and chefs, your efforts were very much appreciated.

The best Italian food in Manchester! We have been going to this amazing restaurant for years now and the food is excellent. The staff are so kind and welcoming and the service is impeccable. No waiting for drinks or food and they go above and beyond to make everything your evening special. Even when we go as a large group we always get served at the same time, We have meat eaters and vegans in our family and the separate vegan menu is fantastic, you don't feel like an afterthought which is nice. I believe the steaks are to die for! If you want gorgeous food at a very reasonable price then I highly recommend them. I haven't found any restaurant in the whole of Manchester that serves more delicious food!

Can't fault them. In fact i just loved the experience. We booked in advance as a group and then needed to increase to an odd number but there was no issue at all. Greeted on arrival and everything was great. The service was perfect. We loved our main server, feel bad for not getting her name but she was completely in control, knowledgeable, very clear and responsive with a discreet sense of humour. We felt valued and looked after. The food was delicious. Two of us in the party are vegan and the the main reason we chose pinochios was they have a vegan menu. No guessing and no need to ask what was plant based. All other staff were equally attentive and its clear they all take huge pride in maintaining a level of service that's above par. This is a gem of a restaurant and that they're still here, in Ashton, having grown from the smaller venue they started with, is testament to the quality. Please don't ever leave the town. We will return (but might hold off on the shots next time!) Thanks to everyone and see you soon.

An absolute gem of a place. Great food, great service and right in the centre of Ashton under Lyne. A handy car park near the Witchwood, although some surrounding streets have free parking from 6pm. There’s a very reasonable early bird menu but their regular menu is very reasonable. My advice is that you book as it gets very busy every night of the week. There’s a decent Vegan/vegetarian selection and the restaurant is easily accessible for those with mobility issues. Go along, you won’t be disappointed.
