The best restaurants serving Italian food in Nantwich South and Stapeley Cheshire East North West

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?

Lovely evening at Olea for a private party with family and friends. Could not fault anything. The food was amazing and plenty of it. The atmosphere was perfect. All friends and family sent compliments. I would totally recommend a visit

Visited on a Saturday night with a group of 11 friends. Firstly we were asked to pre-order as a large group which we did but I don't think this works for tapas. The food was tasty, well cooked & presented nicely, cannot fault the food. However, the service was terrible, despite there being a lot of Staff on duty, we felt ignored by them. The restaurant was not busy but the staff were pretty much not there. We were ignored when arriving, one friend waited 20 minutes for a gin & tonic on arrival, when chased, response was rude not apologetic at all. We were not asked if anything was alright until we had finished, nor if we needed anything else and did not have the opportunity to order any more drinks than what we ordered on arrival as no staff came near the table. We would have had a lot more drinks if able to order so the restaurant missed out here. Turns out the young inexperienced staff felt no need to be present in the restaurant to respond to our needs but were more concerned with what appeared to be socialising and eating around the bar. There is a lack of supervision of the waiting on staff, hence we purposefully left no tip. Sadly despite the food being good & the ambiance & decor being lovely, we will not visit again as the staff are so inattentive. Sadly despite Sadly despite
