The best restaurants serving Italian food in West Lancashire North West

Great service, very well priced and food tastes perfect as well as presented.

Superb food. Lovely restaurant. Friendly service, but overcharged as one of the meals was from the 2 courses for £20 menu, yet the items were charged at the alacarte rate totalling £30.90. We only noticed when we returned home If you offer a special lunch menu you should ensure you charge the right amount. This added around 10% to our bill notwithstanding the tip we left . That said we will return, but will definitely check the bill.

This has been our third visit over a period of a few years. I remember our first visit was nice, but because the restaurant, believe it or not, had run out of most of the dishes. The second visit was, in part, curtosey of the management for a poor experience. The third visit was enjoyable with quite an extensive menu, and the food was very tasty without being a wow factor.But there is something wrong with the atmosphere at Pesto. The staff were curtious without being enthusiastic, and the use of stone tables makes the eating experience sound like a school dining hall. All clatter and noise.

One of the best bars in Ormskirk

I visited here with colleagues for a mid-week evening meal. There are some great deals on such as early bird where you get three courses for £16.95. I opted for that as the options I was going to get for starter and main were on there anyway and it worked out cheaper to do that than order them from the main menu (plus I got dessert in the early bird price too!) Starter of fried halloumi was really nicely cooked and a perfect sized portion. My colleague had calamari but they felt it was a bit soggy for their liking. For main I had penne dolca vita which was really tasty, It was nicely cooked, had a decent kick and flavour and was suitably portioned. Dessert I had ice-cream which was fine. Overall we had a good evening here and the food was a standard expected of a good Italian restaurant. Service was friendly and generally efficient. Would recommend for a good value Italian meal

Wow what a difference a few months make, went in March and found it great went last week and waited over 20 minutes before we were asked if we were ready to order food, we hadn't even been asked if we wanted any drinks, we'd been offered water when we sat down and even that hadn't arrived. Service is slow and not attentive, food just ok, I've had much better. Real shame as the venue is lovely. The couple next to us also were struggling to get drinks, and staff would come to serve and not take away empty items away. Seemed to be loads of young girls working with no supervision, meaning service was very poor. We won't be going again.

Lovely little place this, been here before and it’s always a nice, quiet place to enjoy the food and drink with loved one. The one little criticism and it is little, the prices are expensive for the food but the food is good. (A guess you get what you pay for) Without the 20% off it was £130 for two of us. Which is MCR prices so make sure you go when there are offers on. Services was a little slow last night too, waiting 10-12 mins for extra bread but it was generally very good.

Portions so small you'll be looking at the plate and wondering if it's actually edible, since you're guaranteed to be starving after finishing. I will never see a smaller pizza in my life. Very poor value for money overall.

Fantastic food and great service, you don't have to wait too long, nice large restaurant so feels roomy, will be going again soon.
