The best restaurants serving Italian food in Poynton East and Pott Shrigley Cheshire East North West

We used to love Ciao and was hoping for an amazing Italian. Social just lacked that friendly, Italian feel. Service lacks warmth and personality. It was quiet enough to take the time to smile at least and engage with the customers. Food is nice enough but cold and not presented brilliantly. Tiramisu had hair in it and rubbish bag left in the hallway as you walked to toilets. One of my little girls banged her head and the bar staff just looked over and carried on laughing and chatting. Ciao used to make the children feel special and that’s why they wanted to eat there! Food is expensive for what it is.

This is an upmarket cafe, it has a cosy feel. We loved the background music. The service is professional and very friendly. We ordered the platter, absolutely delicious followed by cannoli yum yum yum and coffee .

Family early evening out with three children under 6. Prompt , and efficient, so the kids were not kept waiting which was brilliant. Food excellent and generous and fairly priced. Totally recommend

Meh, so slooooooow. After hearing about the hype, I was really disappointed. The menu was, in my opinion, limited. Our first choice of main was sold out, at 7:30pm, hardly late for a Saturday evening. The suggested alternative a seafood risotto took approximately 45 mins and when it came it was saltier than the Dead Sea. The waiting staff were lovely, but too few and rushed off their feet.

Excellent service. Good menu. Drinks expensive.
