The best restaurants serving Italian food in Castle Carlisle North West

A hidden gem in Carlisle! Beautiful food and great hosting from Patrizia. You really get the feeling of home Italian cooking here. The quality is top notch. Well worth a visit. 10/10

Really good pizza and calzone. As good as any I've eaten in Italy!

Lovely food for a good price, made even better by amazing staff! Quick service and top quality food

Ate here today with my daughter's and other family members and we can't fault it at all. We have eaten here several times and it is consistently beautiful food and always very good service. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back.

Amatos never lets us down! Starters, mains and puddings were all delicious! Staff are polite and professional. Best Italian in town!

Great tasting pizza and garlic bread.

Really liked this Italian restaurant. Foods are really good, friendly service, and good atmosphere. Their salmon was very good, cooked to perfection making it tender and moist. Recommended place to dine here at Carlisle.

Reasonably priced food and drinks. Worth a visit.

Took wife for 60th birthday and family went as well. Love italian cuisine and wasn't disappointed. Nicky as got this place bang on. The portions were on the generous size but that's not an issue. Even our fussy granddaughters enjoyed the lasagne and pizza respectively. Pasta is bang on and son in law said risotto was delicious. Very friendly and very busy.

Our party booked ahead and preordered, the place had only a few other customers so it wasn’t busy. Meals only started being served after an hour and a half with no apology or explanation. When the food did come some orders were missing, some meals were inedible, some only arrived after other people had finished eating. The manager/supervisor did not come and apologise or offer explanation, he stayed away downstairs. When he was approached about taking a meal off the bill due to it being inedible, he said there was nothing he could do as a good will gesture apart from remove the item from the bill. Two of the meals were inedible and the quality of the others served was on the whole quite poor. I am so surprised as this place used to be so good.

Something gone wrong with this place, one time favourite for good Italian. Now the usual rubber garlic bread like all the other take aways in chorley, Lasagne-hardly any pasta, Sloppy with huge lumps of mince, Spag bog chillied up. Disappointed. I liked the starter though.

Bland and uninspiring. Expensive too. Used to be excellent when small portions were offered for a good price and you could have a few to make a tasty lunch. Lasagne I had was just mush with no discernible layers of pasta and very bland. Items have been dropped from the menu, but the the menu has not been reprinted, so when you order you are told, “we don’t do that anymore” well, reprint the up to date menu then!
