The best restaurants serving Italian food in South Ribble North West

Awful. Where do I start? Firstly, we were a large group that had both pre-booked and pre-ordered. When we all arrived, a platter of bread and dips were brought to each table (four in total) including a table of two where two children were sat. Naturally, as no one had ordered these, we assumed they were complementary, but couldn’t flag down a waiter to check. Incredibly, once the bill came, we found out they cost £30. What a scam. Second, they tried to charge me extra for a vodka. The printed menu says £4.50 whilst the receipt said £5.50. I doubt most people even notice this so imagine how much extra is being paid by people who don’t inspect the bill. Thirdly, the houmous is dreadful. I have no idea what they added to make it taste so bad but multiple people commented on how awful it was. Fourth, I tried to pay for my food and drinks separately by card but was told no because “people are still eating”. Of what relevance is it that people are still eating if I’m not and I’m not ordering anything else? I want to go, so let me pay? And fifth, as we were leaving, one of the men - I assume one of the owners - spoke to one of the young female waiting staff like dirt. They should be ashamed of themselves. I wouldn’t recommend this place if it was the last restaurant left open in Leyland.

Good mains of pasta and pizza but booked a table for 8pm then had to wait until 8.30pm to be seated. Once the food was ordered it came quickly but we then waited from 10pm when Olour plates were cleared until.10.45 pm to be asked if our food was OK or if we wanted desserts but we never were never asked so we got.up and walked to the bar - only then did staff notice us and then asked us to pay the bill - not.experienced such poor customer service in a long time didn't seem to care about the customer experience at all, which is such a shame as the food was good but won't visit this restaurant again as a result of the poor service we received.

Tried on several occasions to get chicken livers to be told either they don’t have any it sold out as they are popular!aube if they are so popular your orders are not enough as you are missing sales as we order them as a starter then order a main meal. Bit rubbish really tbh

Christmas dinner with work colleagues. Great food and service, a great start to the seasons celebrating

Absolutely loved our evening at Salvatores. The food was excellent, service was quick and the staff are fantastic. Will definitely return.

Always a great meal- the staff are amazing and so friendly, and the food is delicious. Definitely worth a visit!

A traditional small North of England neighbourhood caff. Good honest grub cooked in front of you. No fancy frills just the one that is most important, the very friendly atmosphere. Had breakfast there on three occasions and very impressed with each. All three breakfasts were good quality and of a size to more than adequately fill most. The small cooked breakfast I would call large and there were other size,s the largest being bin lid!!

Ridiculous prices. Bland food. The red wine was awfully. Why is there not a up to date menu on the website? Never again...

We visited this restaurant for the first time before we went to the cinema next door. We both had garlic bread, one plain and one with tomato. Mine with tomato was lovely except the middle was a bit undercooked. My partner had the chicken and chorizo paella which he said was just OK. I had the spaghetti bolognese which was tasteless and bland; really disappointing. Strangely we had to pay by bank transfer to a personal account which felt a bit dodgy to be honest. And the manager sits in a corner with his beady eye on everyone. Don't expect we will visit again.

Bit late reviewing but I went for my 40th in February. As my Dad was unwell we couldn't travel very far Only a couple of other tables in and a limited menu but absolutely no complaints at all. Had a lovely meal, didn't need any more choice. All the staff were lovely. Really enjoyed it and glad we went
