The best restaurants serving Italian food in Carlisle North West

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,

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

Love the selection of pizza nice staff decent prices

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.

Excellent Italian food with a Sardinian twist. The staff were great and the atmosphere was very friendly.

Great food would highly recommend 👌

Being here earlier in the year, loved it x hubby surprised me with a little sneaky night away & we got a pod😛 img always wanted to stay in a pod ! Was super clean the shower was amazing & at first thought it would be could but boost the heating up was red hot!! The bedding linen etc were exceptionally clean honestly I can’t wait to go back!!! The staff, the locals are really lovely people ….. my only concern is I’m writing this & Steve & team get so booked up I won’t be able to get a room xxx we’ll find guys x bagel of a place x ❤️

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.

Just popped in after shopping as I was tired. I had a lovely light lunch and a glass of wine. I was served by a very kind and welcoming young woman. I will take friends back to in the Meantime.

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.
