The best restaurants serving Italian food in Ribble Valley North West

Firstly, the decor and styling of the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous, so quaint and cosy. Following Christmas it was just a perfect setting. You really get a feel for the owners passion. Food - the bruschetta was fantastic, delicious tomatoes seasoned to perfection and great bread. The seafood ravioli with lobster bisque was very good maybe could have had a little more punch of flavour for me, my boyfriend had tortelloni with wild hare, cacao and hazelnut which he didn’t overly enjoy. I really appreciate the unique dishes and use of different ingredients but I think it would be really good to have a few of the more basic Italian pasta dishes because sometimes that’s the most satisfying and hearty. The raspberry sorbet we had in between courses was great, sour cherry and ricotta cannoli amazing, biscuit at the end with a coffee was also amazing. Service was very attentive. Prices on the slightly more expensive side but for the quality, this is fine. Really enjoyed our lunch here, wonderful experience overall. A great choice for a special occasion and group I think if there was some more basic Italian dishes available appealing to everyone too.

Was really looking forward to a New Year’s Eve of panto then meal at Amicos with the family only to get back from holiday today and have the pre booking cancelled at 1.55am via email today. Then I phone up to understand and they confirm they are all booked up. Really disappointed having only just moved back to the area. Now left with no restaurant reserved on New Yes Eve.

Loved this place. Went with family and kids. They all loved it.

Slightly disappointed really as was previously advised that Francesco Clitheroe was sublime, so to give it a try to treat myself and partner to a takeaway, we ordered online at around 6pm for it to arrive after chasing twice at 7.45pm was slightly unacceptable but was hoping with the reputation that with the feedback i previously received how phenomenal the food was, was slightly disappointing due to the order not only being 1 hour 45 mins late, but being quite cold as well, we called the first time for us to be told it was leaving the door, followed by 35 minutes later calling again being told it is on its way. Very disappointing and also sad to say i don't think i will be going back to try again! Not even a discount offered for the late delivery!

Amazing food and most of all the staff were so polite. Unlike some other local places, not a mobile phone in sight. Presentation excellent. Deffo return

A piece of Italy in the Ribble Valley. Thoroughly well designed and decorated establishment done to a high standard. One of the best looking places in clitheroe. From coffees to cocktails with impeccable service standards. Been back since to the same service and experience. Enjoyed by all. Even baby change facilities which were supplied with everything you're likely to forget!

Awful service. Awful manners. Awful food. Needs shutting down. The sign above the door should say diarrhoea factory not romeros. Embarrassing
