The best restaurants serving Italian food in Ancoats and Clayton Manchester North West

Our third time at Diecast and another really nice evening out, on our first visit we got to meet Noel the owner and on each visit his friendly charm and customer service seems to be part of the ethos of the place as the staff are all so friendly & helpful. The offering on Sunday was pizza or Sunday lunch, as a family we ordered both and everything was just perfect. The place is warm and comfortable and a great venue. We will be back again soon!

First time visiting this weekend and we were served by a very hostile and unapologetic waiter. He was belittling and did not explain the seating arrangements kindly. Instead he took the opportunity to give us a telling off and make us feel awkward for not ordering food straight away when we were ordering drinks. We left with no apology from him, quite shocked with the experience

Food is FANTASTIC, quality ingredients and beautiful pizza oven, leading to PROPER pizza. Service would probably be 5 out of 5 for a small group but with a large group it was harder for them to manage our pizza orders, but this is a fair downside in return for quality pizza. Atmosphere used to be more relaxed a few years ago. But they were playing dance music this time which makes me eat fast and feel stressed. Bit too loud as well. Shame.

I heard about this bakery from TikTok food bloggers. However, the experience was not good. I got a hot chocolate, a pastel de nata, and a cinnamon swirl. The hot chocolate was the tiniest hot chocolate I’ve ever been served. Like minuscule. Tre pastel de nata pastry was really hard and there was way too much custard in it. Sickly sweet and cloying. Also, the top was over torched and just burned. The cinnamon swirl, I’m not even going to start. Just no. I hate food waste and I still dumped it after two bites.

Very nice and has good gluten free options 👌🏽

Ancoats restaurant now closed, unfortunately, as we found out when following Google Maps! Rang to book a table not realising I was speaking to their place in Altrincham. I'm sure it would have been very nice...

Incredible and ultra airy pizza of super good quality, one of the best I've tasted I think :)

Paying £70 for some pasta and drinks? First off the pastas we ordered were plain pasta and cheese almost, no flavour to any of it and to end it all off the bill was way too high for what we got, only good thing is the staff were nice

I have never left a review never mind a bad one but I booked Salvis NQ for my bfs birthday a week in advance, I received multiple texts confirming the booking in the lead up to this evening - get there 5 mins before our reservation at 6.30pm and the restaurant is closed! Rang the store and could hear the phone ringing but very obviously they were not open as there was a letter hanging out of the door. No notification or communication from Salvis to ask us to go to another location or even to tell us they are not opening today. So annoyed as they’ve got fab reviews for food and I thought it would be a perfect bday place! We went to the corn exchange location to see if we could get a table there but it was pretty full and there was only one staff member on so we decided to not add to his visible stress. Probs won’t try to come again which is a shame because we were looking forward to it!

Nothing special kebabs are plain tasting
