The best restaurants serving Italian food in North West

Lovely place to grab a bite to eat. The whole team are friendly and it's a great atmosphere.

First time at this restaurant and everything about it was 5/5!! Will definitely be returning

Great choice of food and great service from Paulo. Would definitely recommend for a lovely evening out and a chance to try lots of different dishes.

Great Italian restaurant, wonderful food, good atmosphere and lovely staff. Bruschetta was incredible and fantastic wine

Service was excellent Food was very disappointing not good quality.

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

Staff very welcoming and really brilliant with young children. All the food was excellent. Three of us had the lasagne and it was delicious with generous serving. Beautifully laid tables and very clean . Lovely relaxed ambience.

The best Italian food I’ve had since being home from living in Naples. The staff are fantastic, very attentive and the restaurant is beautiful. We celebrated our 3 year anniversary perfectly and will be back!

La Locanda is, undoubtedly, the best Italian restaurant in the UK. Why? 4 reasons: 1. Outstanding food The most authentic, always outstandingly delicious Italian food - our favourites are bruschetta, scallops, spaghetti allo scoglio, wild sea bass and wild sea trout. Maurizio is a hugely talented agrichef, who sources 75% of ingredients locally. His passion for quality, local sourcing and for using seasonal produce (and Extra Virgin Olive Oil) is a joy to behold! 2. Service Cinzia is a delightful, charming hostess - welcoming, friendly and professional. Her wider team are warm and attentive. 3. Ambiance A beautiful converted weavers cottage lends the ambiance a rustic, cosy, wonderfully romantic charm 4. Unique La Locanda is unique. Very rarely can you find a restaurant that has award-winning, authentic, world class food, wonderfully attentive service and a fabulous ambiance. Also worth mentioning the many extra special touches - ever changing daily specials, palette-cleansing sorbet between courses and delicious Italian chocolate truffles/chocolate served with the best coffee outside Italy! Finally, the La Locanda team go above and beyond to accommodate my often difficult, medical diet (gluten-free, dairy free, pescatarian). Maurizio and Cinzia are passionate restaurateurs who deliver a unique, truly Italian experience. We feel truly lucky to live close to this exceptional restaurant and have been enjoying monthly dinners there for 19 years. Grazie Mille!

Wow, amazing meal! Risotto and tagliatelle salmone. Arrived hot and freshly cooked. Highly recommend.

Always very pleasing experience.

My husband and I arrived for dinner on sat 24th May for dinner to celebrate a special occasion. Our meals and drinks came out quickly and were delicious. We were seated downstairs and our waitress was really attentive! The only thing that let the evening down was waiting upstairs to be seated and the manager walking past us on a number of occasions, not greeting us or acknowledging us waiting which didn’t give us the greatest first impression.

Perfection! Beautiful restaurant, amazing food and lovely service. Highly recommend! The best Featherblade of Beef I’ve ever had.

We went and there were six of us, and from the minute we actually sat down to leaving the restaurant, we were made to think that nothing was too much trouble - I can’t praise this enough -

nice surroundings, food ok, former bank building, open late week
