The best restaurants serving Italian food in Wirral North West

We come here regularly and it is always great. Lovely food, friendly staff and excellent service. Authentic Italian style pizzas and a good range of pastas. Had a taster of their new lunch menu last week and it was fantastic - really tasty selection of focacia sandwiches on freshly baked bread. Best place to eat in Oxton village by far.

...I thought long and hard whether to review at all, but whilst I like good local restaurants, there are certainly better ones than this and at £90 plus for 4 you might be better spending your hard earned elsewhere in this instance... We went over Easter and it did feel a little Fawlty Towers when asking what wine they had to be effectively told they had two types - red & white, and that's it, two bottles of white, one of red. We ordered starters which took about 50 mins to come and they'd nipped out in the meantime to buy the Italian meats I suspect (we did see them go out and come back ten mins later). They also said that the focaccia was fresh but unfortunately it was far from it. The mains were woeful - we all went classic - Chicken Milanese (which used the wrong sauce), meatballs (which were actually Spag Bol), Parma Ham & Mushroom pizza ( the base was so tough you couldn't cut through it) and Carbonara (which to be fair was ok). In the end we laughed and put it down to experience but our friends decided to bring up the meatballs issue - the lady was apparently visibly upset but blamed the chef and didn't try to remedy the situation. They often say you know how good a restaurant is by how they deal with problems, and this one didn't... There's not a lot of alternative in Hoylake, but what there is significantly better than Bella Mamma's.

Este es uno de los mejores de la pizzería alrededor. Su comida es normalmente de alta calidad y rápido para entregar.

Went for a birthday and it was amazing. Devoured every bite of food. I myself am a picky eater but all this food was delicious. Service was great and no body had any problems. Would recommend

We now live in New Zealand but travel frequently back to the Wirral. We have been coming to this restaurant for 34 years! It is a pilgrimage for us, and we are never disappointed. We love this food and the friendly service. As vegetarians, we are well catered for, and the wine is perfectly matched to the homely Italian food. We absolutely love this place, highly recommended.

Nope. Don't. Mistake. Pepper. Milk. Avoid the lamb burger. Warm cream mushroom. Why try, when the word try means, make an effort to do something. No effort was made.

I really enjoyed the spaghetti bolognaise it was lovely

The food and atmosphere was lovely, have already booked to come again as it was so amazing.

Ordered food, said 40 min delivery, waited over an hour and when I asked how long it would be they stuck another 40-50 mins on the order wait time . I phone regarding a small issue with the online order and was met with a vile man who clearly doesn't like his job very much, he proceeded to argue with me and say the food had been sent out an hour prior to the phone call and there was nothing he could do and that it was my fault. I explained that he had prolonged the wait time by 40 mins and from what I could see it hadn't left yet so the small issue could be easily resolved and he argued with that too, he then went back and checked and gave me the delivery man's number, the food hadn't left yet after all the shouting and blame gaming from him. Luckily the delivery driver was lovely and helped me with the issue with no complaints. Unfortunately the food was stone cold when it arrived and to be honest I'd lost my appetite after dealing with such a horrible person. From what I've seen on other sites I'm not the first person he's done this too.

Literally the best Indian in the area and it’s not even close. I have no idea why Mother India is busy when this gem is across the road. Unreal food at great prices

I used to rate this takeaway highly and always recommended it and was a regular customer but the past couple we have had have been awful so unfortunately we won’t be ordering again. Tonight we waited an hour and a half for cold, greasy and soggy food. Last time we had meat from a kebab that was that tough it could’ve been mistaken for an old leather boot and a burger that would’ve made a good frisbee. So it’s a no from me

Still waiting for my food now 2 hours ! Poor service no one answers the phone when you call to se where your order is
