The best restaurants serving Italian food in Sefton North West

I have said before Il Capitano’s is the best pizza in Mersyside, and also the north west, but honestly guys tonight was the most amazing pizza of my life!!! The best pizza in the UK!! Actually I want to change that to the best pizza in Europe. I have eaten Neapolitan pizza in Rome, Pisa, Milan and Venice but seriously you guys win hands down. Thank you for amazing service and food once again!!

We had a family party at my home for my Mum's birthday and ordered a few platters of sandwiches and grazing meats. We were so impressed with the variety of food we were given, the quantity and the superb presentation. The scotch eggs are amazing! It was so easy to lay the platters onto the table and let our guests dig in. There were lots of oohs and aahs and very little wastage as everything was so delicious. I can't recommend these caterers enough. They are now my go to place for future occasions.

First time visiting so not sure what to expect, we got 2 slices of pizza and nachos, I got meat feast, wife got chicken & sweetcorn (with added onion) nachos arrived first followed by the pizza. Slices were about 1/3 of a XL at a certain ‘spot pizza delivery’ served with dips as well. Drinks were a bottle of zero San Miguel (only zero beer they had, but it’s one of the nicer ones) and 2x187ml wine. All came to £25 so not too expensive for Southport and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. We sat outside on a glorious Wednesday evening. Well recommended.

Best restaurant in southport for Italian needs. I had the pizza and was by far best pizza Ive ever had. Girlfriend had pasta and that was 10/10… will definitely be coming back here

Pasta 51 Express was fabulous ! Freshly cooked Italian food in a market environment. Southport market is made up of a myriad of kitchens with central seating and a huge affordable bar in the centre . Can’t rave enough about the freshly cooked spaghetti bolognaise at Pasta 51 Express. What a hidden gem the whole market is and so competively priced! Well done Southport .

tomato salad at 6.50, unripe nearly frozen look like lidl tomatoes with a handful of rocket and a ton ( I mean a TON ) of Balsamic. Amateur crap. Not what you expect when you order a tomato salad from somewhere supposedly italian. Tomatoes are better room temp?. Stick to the pizza which is fine. Last thing, your toilets need sprucing up, I wouldn't say dirty, no actually I would.. off putting. Dissapointed in the lack of general effort.. No love here.

always a great food night, atmosphere,service and quality of the meals .fantastic. were helped with our wine selection, and was superb

We had an amazing night for my daughter’s 21st birthday. The staff were so attentive especially macy, she’s a beautiful girl and a credit to the business. The food was fantastic, we enjoyed every minute and will definitely be back

Gorgeous cocktails at a great price. Will definitely be back!

Shut & doesn’t look like the pictures so no idea what it’s like. Suggest you drive by before deciding as I cannot say it’s still in business
