Romazzino in Cheshire East

Our booking was for early evening (1/11) prior to an event in Nantwich. I hadn’t finished taking my coat off when we were asked if we wanted a drink, we asked to have a few minutes to look at the menu. It was very quiet and we felt under pressure to order, I dislike asking for more time, however I also want to enjoy the experience. We shared whipped burrata with tomatoes and focaccia, it was very tasty and a plentiful portion, I was glad we shared it. My husband had paccheri al ragu di agnello, slow cooked ragu of lamb with vegetables, finished with white wine and a touch of tomato, it was ok, however my husband likened it to ‘left over Sunday lunch with pasta’. My salmon, however was delicious, perfectly cooked, served with roasted baby potatoes, spinach and a fabulous honey and walnut dressing. The last time we visited Romazzino I commented on the lack of warmth from the two male maitre d’s, sadly nothing has improved from one of the gentleman along with a female maitre d companion. Again, smiling was non existent and both were aloof. The waiting staff however were delightful. Will we return, absolutely, I’m hoping for great service, third time lucky perhaps?

Excellent food made to order and plenty to choose from excellent service and reasonably priced can’t wait to go again this is going to be my local and not just for special occasions

Great service and lovely food such a good evening. Thanks Beppe we enjoyed the Lemoncello very much. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely Saturday night meal with family. The food was amazing and really good service. Would highly recommend visiting.

Wonderful food & service, all staff were very busy and friendly, the manager (I think) lady with brown hair? Was very pleasant! A special mention to chef executive John & Darren, food was delicious, will be coming again soon. Thank you for a lovely experience 😊 Warm regards Amy

We visited after a lovely afternoon at the Nantwich Food Festival, it was lovely to relax in such nice surroundings after the hustle and bustle of the town. Our food was delicious, we enjoyed arancini and whipped burrata to start, very generous portions and really tasty. Followed by ricotta and parmesan filled ravioli in a rich tomato and basil sauce and perfectly cooked salmon with spinach, baby potatoes and the lightest honey walnut dressing. Both were so good. Service was the only area we felt lacking. The older gentleman was delightful as always, the two younger maitre d’s were a little surly, no smiling and aloof, which was a shame. Our tip was generous and received without any acknowledgement - disappointing. Food excellent, service less so. A shame. Will we return? Absolutely, I hope that they take this constructive feedback on board.

A family meal to celebrate a birthday. Amazing and authentic Italian food,l; great service and good atmosphere. Very attentive staff and a warm welcome too. We’ve spent some time in Italy this Summer and were keen to see how the pizzas compared! Exceptionally well is the answer!

An opportunity to enjoy a relaxing dinner with my wife Good food. Thanks John the chef and great service from Alex and Tracey. We look forward to returning.

My partner and I visited this restaurant with our families to enjoy some pizza. My partner and her mother are coeliac, however the menu is GF friendly and is the highest quality gluten free produce they have ever eaten. I tried their pizza and it was perfect, tasty and had a nice texture and taste to the crust. It was an incredibly enjoyable and tasty dinner. John and Alice are the ones in the kitchen in charge of the cuisine prepared for us we were told, and to them I thank them and hope they keep up the impressive work they produce. I would recommend this place to anyone, and definitely most people who live a GF diet. From the food, the service and the complimentary limoncello at the end, it was perfect.

The restaurant staff were so friendly especially Tracey. The menu offered many delicious options it was difficult to decide ....all of us really enjoyed our meals. The service was excellent. Many thanks to the chefs John and Alex. We will be back

Came here last Friday and was made uncomfortable by other diners. Me and my hubby were sat next to a group of very rude women… making the young waitress so uncomfortable it was hard to watch. I have now seen the review personally and can vouch that the young waitress + the other waitresses handled the situation so well👏🏼 it really makes me sad that some people make it their mission to make young women uncomfortable in their place of work. Regardless this our experience was amazing!! Would definitely recommend the food was brilliant and the service even better. Thanks to All xx

Rude waitress who were paying our bill to. Very rude second and third waitresses who abused our group in front of other customers because we expressed our dissatisfaction at the attitude of a young waitress. The waitress was the daughter of one of the other waitresses so I understand nobody likes their children to be critised but maybe consider that she clearly did not want to be working in your restaurant on a Friday night and its not fair that customers should endure her attitude as it spoils their extremely expensive dining experience. Up shot is we are now barred....thank goodness

Excellent meal, first class, cannot understand why it is not rated number 1 as I have eaten at the others and they really are not as good as this eatery at all. Service first class friendly and helpful the Risotto and pasta were perfect the puddings were lush and the coffee was the best in town, we will definitely return soon

From start to finish the experience of eating here was fantastic I couldn’t fault the Staff or the food We will return very soon

A totally wonderful evening, lovely atmosphere incredible menu, professional staff who were so friendly and helpful. The food was so well prepared and cooked and beautifully presented. The menu even has a vegan section which is so lovely to see, lovely wine list and non alcoholic larger. After recently moving to the area it was so lovely to find our new go to Italian restaurant.

Food was good but service was extremely poor. Felt we were being rushed out of the door. Table booked for 5pm and we had finished our mains by 6pm. Waitress asked if we wanted desserts, which we did not, and then stated she would bring us the bill, without us asking. We paid the bill and continued to sit at our table to finish the half a bottle of wine we had left. We could see the waitress watching our table as we clearly were not drinking fast enough. She came over to our table in silence and picked up the half bottle of wine in the cooler, before tipping it into our glasses without asking - finishing the bottle. We had not wanted our glasses refilled yet as we were savouring the wine as it was not a cheap bottle. Our glasses also did not need refilling. It was clear they wanted us out. Been to Romazzino’s a few times since it has moved from love lane and the service has never been the same. Staff are always unwelcoming, grumpy and poor customer service. This is the second time in a few months we have had poor service. There is however there are two younger waitress with ginger hair and brown hair who both have good customer service. They are the only positives.

Nice restaurant setup, quick service but disappointed with the food starter salad not fresh,main course average and staff seemed to be in a hurry for the table which doesn’t make you feel welcome.

Visited with friends and can’t recommend this lovely restaurant enough. Everything was superb. The staff the food the atmosphere !! We will be returning as much as possible in the future

Lovely imaginative food - interesting dishes not just the usual classics . Portion size was good without being too huge. And the service was excellent with friendly helpful staff .

Absolutely love Romazzino. We have been as a family on many occasions and it is consistently excellent. The food is authentic and delicious. All the staff are welcoming and so helpful. A special thank you to Tracey and Marco for making my birthday such a fantastic evening.

The restaurant was vibrant, the female staff were very attentive and friendly. The food was diabolical, the wine was good. But unfortunately the food let the whole place down. The calamari starter was bad, rubbery and bland. The special was fish and a plate of potatoes. I won’t be going again

Absolute fantastic restaurant and atmosphere, I think our host was called Sue…exceptional host and very attentive to our needs. 5* rating, will definitely be back! Food was outstanding I must say!

Very slow service. Was looking forward to desert and coffee but ran out of time due to length of time to serve courses. Staff did not appear friendly or really keen to serve you. But on a positive note when the food was served it was delicious which is why I've not given a review of just 1. I'd been to Romazzinos several times previously so hope this was an exception.

We had a girls night at Rommazino, a variety of dishes ordered. Carbonara was spot on. Tiramisu and cannoli were fab but enormous portions.

What a great evening, we arrived and shown straight to our table, and within 5 minutes asked what drinks we would like to order. The restaurant was very busy the ambiance buzzing. The service all night was top draw very attentive and eager to please. The food quality was excellent, and they also offer a good choice of wines with a broad range of prices… We will be back soon. Excellent night!

We had a table booked for 2pm. We arrived at 1.48pm. Entered the restaurant and the host (Italian male) asked for my details etc and stated ‘you’re early, it’s not ready’. I am not sure who arrives for their table bang on time and thinking that he should be aware people arrive early this took me by total surprise. Rather than him offering, I had to ask if it was ok if we waited in the empty bar area. It was also raining heavily outside so I’m not sure what he expected me and my two children to do whilst we waited for the table. Sat at a table in the bar, were given food menus and we asked if we wanted to order drinks, then the same man came to get us appropriately 3 minutes later to say the table is ready. Had to upheave 4 people, bags, coats etc so couldn’t carry the menus we had been given. Nobody offered us more menus so after sitting there for about 10 minutes we had to request some to be brought to us. The rest of the service staff were lovely. The two ladies in particular. Food was disappointing and wait times were odd. The table next to us ordered before us and got their starters first but then had to wait until after we’d had our main to receive theirs. We also waited about 20 minutes for the kid’s desert. All in all, after looking forward to our visit, i would deem it disappointing and we won’t be returning. Such as shame as we live in a small town and theres no that much choice in venues but i’d rather stick to what i know that waste my money on sub standard.

Excellent food, fantastic service. The team are so friendly, personable and welcoming. The food really is great, a Mother’s Day treat which did not disappoint

Food and drinks were lovely as usual. Staff were super busy but excelled in their customer service. Lovely evening had by all

My arrancino was luke warm, the pizza garlic bread was average to say the least, luke warm and the dough was soggy, the meals had obviously been sat in the kitchen for 10 minutes before delivering to the table. My daughter is a slow eater but i was still very surprised that the mains were delivered to the table whilst she was still eating her starter, it was placed on the table next to her, no pressure to eat faster. My lamb pasta was tasty but almost cold, i told the waiter politely that my meal was cold, he said " take the salad off your dish it will get soggy in the oven" I thought they might have replaced the meal but it was obviously just pinged in the microwave. It arrived back warm in the middle and cold around the edge, at this point i couldn't be bothered to say anything. I told the waiter the meal was poor and i was told by him "we do a lot of things right but sometime it goes wrong, i will tell the chef", Thanks for that! It was my Birthday and we left disappointed, i didn't want discount just a hot meal, which was not delivered. Service ok and the red wine was good.

We booked here travelling from Shrewsbury for a birthday afternoon lunch and it was so worth it. Ordered a sharer platter to start with and some olives and bread, then two main courses. The sharer platter was beautiful, really fresh tasting and the main courses were really tasty too. Enjoyed a nice bottle of wine and fantastic service.

Had a meal here for the first time this evening with my husband. Fabulous atmosphere, attentive service from friendly staff. The food was delicious, cooked to perfection and good size portions. Will definitely be returning. Thank you to the head chef Darren and the wonderful team at Romazzino. Unfortunately we didn’t take any photos of the food because we were too busy eating it 😊

Second time we have visited this fantastic restaurant. As with the first visit the experience was fantastic. The food delicious, staff lovely and friendly with a great atmosphere to the establishment. This meal was shared with friends in our first double date and funnily enough both couples recommended the restaurant to eachother which delivered to a high standard yet again! We will be going back, we will recommend to friends and for those looking to woo a pretty lady or handsome fella it makes for a great first, second or even third date!

Absolutely Delicious as always! Staff very attentive and welcoming! Food is top notch! Can't wait to come back!

Really nice atmosphere for a dinner with friends. Food was exceptional. Service was quick and attentive. Was also easy to split the bill at the end and make multiple card payments. Will definitely return.

Have been going here since they were in Love Lane. Food wonderful, the chefs are amazing, service mostly fabulous. Birthday night ruined, however, by rude owner (possibly owner’s son/relative as we have been going for years and the older italian guy wouldn’t have seen this kind of service in a million years.) was rude rude rude. Clearly felt like he did not need our business. Shame for the professional, well trained staff who didn’t receive a tip because their ‘boss’ was an entitled fool. He will be slowly losing each and ever regular just as he has done with us all and our families. What a shame to tank such a business that the old guy worked so hard on for years. 😩😩😩.

Food is always good here but has got a lot more expensive this past year Shame about the brusk customer service from the front of house staff. They seemed like they really couldn’t be bothered if we were there or not which is a bad way to start your evening.

Somewhat average and certainly not as good as some reviews make it appear. My veal was only just warm on arrival and cold by the time that the front door had been opened a few times to let in the minus 5 weather. The female members of staff were cheery and had some wit. The older male members of staff seemed sullen and unhappy in their work. When a table has spent over £400 perhaps a small farewell is the norm. Have definitely had much nicer for the price. Disappointing!

Absolutely lovely. Definitely felt like a proper treat and will definitely be back. This place it the kind of place we would come for a special tea out.

Fantastic meal, excellent service. We were a group of 4, we had 3 courses each and every dish was delicious. I would particularly recommend the seafood linguine. We'll definitely be visiting again.

Delicious food, fabulous service. Top notch evening as usual! Particular shout out to Tracy and Didi for their warm welcome and special attention to our children. See you soon

Booked a table for lunch. Had the sharing platter for two, the land one. Good variety of food on the platter. Then we ordered two pizzas. The base was bubbly and crispy. Ordered some of the Italian fizzy drinks. Don't order the mint one as it was like drinking mouthwash. Despite the good food, the waiter was surly and had a very strong body odour issue. This was very off putting as they leaned over the table to place down drinks and plates.

We visited for an afternoon meal with our granddaughter for her 21st. We definitely made the right choice, a friendly welcome on arrival , great service and the food was delicious and first class, the four of us had different meals and all said the same, the staff are so friendly and obliging which made our visit even more special. Thank you all so much we will definitely be visiting again.

Romazzino never fails to deliver .... amazing food (as always), so fresh, perfectly proportioned, and just lush. The seafood risotto was outstanding, and the cheese board was beautiful. Cocktails were fab. Service was efficient yet discreet. Love the fact this place is on my doorstep .... won't be long before I'm back, either with friends, family, or solo. Can't recommend highly enough. Love it.

Fabulous food, very friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere! We really enjoyed our visit here and will definitely be going back.

We wanted an early dinner as we were going to the Words and Music Festival. At 6pm the place was fairly quiet but by the time we left at 7.10 it was buzzing. Good food, I had Cod wrapped in Serrano ham and my wife chose the Veal Saltimbocca. Both were excellent, as were the Barbera d’Asti and the Berra Messina. Smiling friendly service, we were sad to have to leave without a dessert. Will go again for sure

From the start the service was outstanding, we were greeted in by Tracy who was constantly overseeing our stay. We had asked for special requests such as a candle lit table and modelled napkins and they were presented beautifully. The food, made by Jesepi was...

Excellent meal and service, the new Executive Chef Gusippe is fantastic. Wonderful Birthday celebration. Definitely going back.

Great pizza, lovely atmosphere and charming waiting staff. Highly recommend if passing through Nantwich.

We were a party of 8 out for a 40th birthday celebration. The restaurant were extremely welcoming and friendly. The food was so amazing I had to have a starter, main and desert so couldn't move for the rest of the evening! The Arancino was...

We really enjoyed a meal at Romazzino this evening to celebrate a friend’s birthday- the food (thank you Darren and your team), drinks and service were fantastic!

Had the calamari, lasagna and the paccheri al pistachio. Great location, the food was a little bit disappointing. Calamari dipping sauce is really spicy. The lasagna wasn't the best with quite a basic tomato sauce. The paccheri pasta sauce tasted like hummus.

Excellent service and food as usual. Romazzino is often our first choice for dinner in Nantwich - great selection of dishes, wine and lovely staff/atmosphere.

Great meal, food and drink was delicious. The service was fab. Pasta dish was gorgeous thanks to Darren, the executive chef.

Atmosphere was ok and staff were friendly enough but food was bang average at best. Complete lack of taste and just churned out. Ryanair experience.

I went for a meal for my sisters birthday and ordered a pasta dish which was available as a meat option of you added chicken. I did not choose this as I have been a vegetarian for seven years. The waitress even came back to...

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Would certainly recommend and book again. A highlight of Nantwich's culinary scene.

Our first visit to the new premises. Staff were friendly and attentive and the four of us all enjoyed our meals. Arancini starter was especially delicious. We hope to return before too long.

We visited for dinner on a busy Friday early August. The waiting staff were extremely attentive and a special shout out to Daz the chef as the food was delicious as always - will definitely be back!

Very expensive for a slightly better than average dinner. The service was good and the wine excellent but unfortunately the food we had wasn’t up to the standards we had expected and certainly not for the price paid.

Head chef is amazing. Restaurant really full but top class food served on time and presented well. Flavours are wonderful. Front of house staff are excellent too. Highly recommend

Another great night at Romazzino - a special shout out has to go to Darren the executive chef who cooked up a storm in the kitchen this evening, with a full house - well done to everyone in the kitchen!

If you are interested in the BEST food and service, this is the restaurant to eat at. Even with a walk in party of four,we’re treated with the best service (even as Americans lol) The food was delectable and the place was beautiful , would...

Tracey was absolutely brilliant , great host , superb food and atmosphere , we will return , had pasta dishes which were very tasty and good portions .

Cuttlefish linguine in Nantwich in August. You really shouldn’t expect something so good. Worthy of Fifteen Cornwall at its height.

I’m always very particular about visiting Italian restaurants as I’m often underwhelmed by the quality or surprised by dishes or drinks being overpriced. However, I’m delighted to say we had a delightful meal at Romazzino. Service was relatively efficient in a restaurant that was very...

Would like to thank Diane,Daz and the whole team who looked after us last night. The food was outstanding and the service was brilliant. Defo recommended.

Having booked this last minute, we were so well looked after. The food is just fantastic and the service is as good. If you are in the area this is a must visit, the tiramisu was outstanding!

Dropped into Romazzino on a business trip with no booking, immediately accommodated with a table in the bar area. Have to say having travelled regularly to Italy that this is one of the best Italian food restaurants outside of the country itself. Service , food...

We had the most delicious food at Romazzinos last night. The Ravioli was amazing and the unnecessary bowl of chips were fought over! The children’s portions were healthy but not over facing. We will return.

We love this restaurant! We chose it for a 50th birthday celebration and Giuseppe, DD and other wonderful staff looked after all 15 of us. We cannot thank you enough. The food is always absolutely delicious and plentiful. Thank you again 😊

We went here for dinner this week for the first time. Without doubt Romazzino serves the best gluten free pizza I have EVER eaten anywhere in the world. In fact, I can't even remember a gluten containing pizza from my pre-coeliac days tasting as good...

What a great night at Romazzinos celebrating friends birthdays. The Food was exceptional. 5 different meals and all gorgeous served by lovely, friendly staff. Thank you for making it a perfect evening.

We have been to Romazzino's multiple times and it's always been excellent food and great service. The staff are always up for a chat, the food is always brought out in a timely manner and it tastes amazing. Especially enjoyed our most recent trip on...

Great service from Tracey and Dido, beautiful food served with humour and attention. Birthday cake delivered with a song too... Highly recommended

Lovely meal again. This time for father's day. Georgia and Tracy looked after us. With a lemonchello to finish what's not to like.

Wow what a hidden treasure, amazing food and staff. Easy parking right behind restaurant and a great experience had by all our party on this Father’s Day even for the vegans. Thanks Pep xx

Fathers Day meal with my kids and mother. Amazing seafood linguine and the service was fantastic, really accommodating. Particular mention for Tracey our waitress who was great with the kids.

It’s our second visit here and and we really enjoyed. Lonely good and a lonely atmosphere. Especially good service by Tracy. Thanks so much we look forward to our next visit.

Amazing food and service! Georgia and Dee Dee were brilliant! 🙂 had thd Squid, foccacia with tomatoes, and Calzone all fantastic! Will go back definitely!!

Lovely food had by all the family as usual, cooked by Giuseppe! Served by Tracey & Stefano who were very friendly & helpful! It's my dad's favourite restaurant as an Italian himself so we will definitely be back.

Romazzino's is our go to restaurant, the staff, food, wine and atmosphere are always fantastic. There is an excellent vegetarian and vegan menu, which is great to see, the chef will adapt other dishes to suit if needs be. Highly recommended. Looking forward to our...

Went on Thursday for a family birthday. The service was second to none, and the food was the best I've ever tasted. Staff were professional, friendly and couldn't do enough for you. The restaurant has such a nice vibe. Definitely my favourite place to go....

Really quick to be seen to our table and our drinks, starters and mains were delivered without hesitation. We were offered a special which was Argentinian Prawns with the gentlemen answering any questions we had. The quality of the food and great ambience are the...

This was our first visit. We went on spec and although they were fairly busy we managed to get a table. However it soon became obvious that we had been seated right next to the toilet door. Quite an unpleasant experience when people kept paying...

Great atmosphere really buzzing on a Friday night Good food enjoyed every course Good choice on menu

He's either the owner or Nantwich's oldest waiter. Whatever his role, he shouldn't be front of house! (You know who you are, rude boy!)

I’ve known Pepe and his team for some years. I rocked up this evening on a whim at 8:40 and was made to feel thoroughly welcome at this time still. I had no booking. A lovely meal of the beef cheek and some nice wine....

We love Romazzino every time. Traditional Italian in local Nantwich! Marco and Tracey were our hosts, they were upbeat, friendly and helpful. They met all of our requests and checked in whilst we were eating. Will definitely be back!

Brilliant restaurant, went for a family members birthday, We were well looked after, Food fantastic, Staff friendly and helpful and fun, highly recommend.

Lovely meal with family. Rather a long wait for the food to come out but when it finally arrived it was delicious. Good atmosphere and friendly staff. Price for food and drink very reasonable , I would visit again.

Excellent food and great atmosphere with good service will definitely return could not complain about anything

Tracy and Dede were both lovely! Super accommodating and food came very fast! Overall lovely service :)

Staff were very friendly and the customer service was great especially from Tracy and Dede Food was yummy! Great experience overall

This spot is fantastic for an evening meal for any special occasion! Fantastic meal with great hosts. Georgia and Caitlin were brilliant. The food is absolutely fantastico. I would recommend to anyone. Really authentic vibe to the Italian food, my risotto had my jaw on...

Excellent Birthday treat!! Excellent for vegetarians, highly recommend this place and will be going again :)

We have stopped to eat here a few times when passing through Cheshire. A few years ago, it was smoothly run, friendly and whatever you chose from the menu was a pleasure to eat. The last couple of visits were only memorable for rather odd...
