The best restaurants serving Italian food in Carlisle North West

I just wanted to leave a review following our stay last night (18/11/2023) An absolutely amazing stay, bedroom had all we needed. We had a fantastic sleep and a wonderful view. The food was amazing the best pub grub I have had in a very long time. The breakfast equally as good. The staff were all friendly and had excellent customer service, very welcoming. The locals made us feel at home and a good time was had all round. Stephen was a wonderful host and a brilliant chef. We can't wait to return next year to try out the glamping pod

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

We learnt of Big Pizza Pies via facebook, and my partner and I have been fans ever since. Beautiful hand made pizzas cooked in front of you in a wood fire, they are to die for! While I'm a simple margherita fan, my partner loves the different specials they have on every week, especially the cumberland sausage ones.

Pizza van in Local community hall car park, there most Saturdays. More to the point they're very good and keeping you informed via Facebook if they won't be there. Good selection of excellent Pizzas at reasonable prices,

This restaurant was recommended and certainly did not disappoint. Every bite was delicious, portions more than sufficient. Patricia, our host, was so warm and attentive and we would definitely like to return

We got a lunchtime pizza delivered to work , fantastic pizza agreed by everyone came hot very enjoyable will definitely eat from hear again highly recommend!!

Lovely meal and great place . Food was excellent.

Food never disappoints, it's the best pizza in Carlisle! Don't be carried by the empty restaurant, this hidden gem got delicious meal and fair prices.

Went for a late lunch with friends, it was very busy as it was a Saturday afternoon. Food was lovely from the pasta to the pizza & the desserts we fully enjoyed. Staff were nice & we will be back

Definitely the best Italian in Carlisle! Every time we go, we are never disappointed, each starter and main meal are simply divine, we’re always too full to get a pudding! Tonight we had mussels and meatballs to start, then cod risotto and sea bass. The mussels are in a large bowl and very tasty, exceptional value - I sometimes ask for these as a main meal. My husband said the meatballs were delicious. The cod risotto is an absolute treat, crispy skin, soft and tasty flesh, and the risotto compliments the cod exceptionally well. My husband had the sea bass, and again just mouth watering! Beautiful meal, excellent service and reasonable! Thank you Amatos for being so amazing, you are our favourite Italian in town and we will be back!

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.

Beautiful restaurant with a great atmosphere and extensive menu. The staff were lovely and helpful, food was incredible and the cocktails were fantastic! It’s easily the best restaurant in Carlisle and I’ll definitely be back, can’t recommend it enough!

I arrived in Carlisle on a Sunday afternoon and really wanted a roast. None of the pubs were dog-friendly. It was a bit drizzly but this place had some covered seating out the front. I ordered the roast chicken and it was lovely! Moist and tender, with plenty of veg and a huge Yorkshire pudding. The waitress who served me was also great.

VERY PLEASANT STAFF DESPITE IT BEING REALLY BUSY. WIDE CHOICE OF FOOD AT REASONABLE PRICES. HAVE A FUNCTION ROOM UPSTAIRS WHERE LARGER GROUPS OF PEOPLE CAN DINE WHICH IS GOOD FOR GROUP GATHERINGS. I DONT EAT A LOT OF ITALIAN BUT WAS EASILY ABLE TO FIND SOMETHING SUITABLE TO EAT

Lovely meal. Good service. Recently been refurbished, much better. Have eaten here for years. Never disappointed. Reasonably priced. Worth a visit.
