The best restaurants serving Italian food in North West

Really enjoyed our meal at Locanda last weekend. Food was hot and very tasty. Relaxed atmosphere and great service from Ben who was attentive without being annoying. will definitely be back.

We are missing you. Good memories in your restaurant with our family. We loved your pizzas, ice creams, coffes , indian dishes. Thanks for your delicious cooking

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.

Increase of price, and was made to pay a £10 ‘table fee’ which I wasn’t told about when I ordered or made my booking on top of it all, how’s the table fee costing more than most things on the menu?? The restaurant next door (which I assume is theirs also) doesn’t do this😭 Seen your reply, and nah that isn’t my receipt. Only had one shisha and just a can of redbull😂went from £22 to £32 because of the table fee, we was given a table near the doors, we did ask if we could have a different table but wasn’t given it!

Lovely evening at Olea for a private party with family and friends. Could not fault anything. The food was amazing and plenty of it. The atmosphere was perfect. All friends and family sent compliments. I would totally recommend a visit

My husband and I dropped into the little Italian for tea one evening and it was absolutely superb. Lovely friendly staff, really good prawns to start with and we both enjoyed a hearty bowl of pasta for mains. Reasonably priced, great little find. We will be back.

Popped in for breakfast as wanted to put money in to local business rather than McD’s etc and the board outside stated 2 breakfasts and 2 teas £12 which seemed reasonable. The breakfast was well sized however the sausage was bland as was the grilled tomato. Bacon and beans were good. The pot of tea wasn’t the best. At no point did anybody pop over and ask us if we were enjoying our meal or if everything was ok. The decor was tired with marks on the walls and the door was filthy. We were in early and the place was empty so wasn’t as though the grime had built up in the day and would have took a minute to wipe it down with a damp cloth at least. Also the table cloth was stained. When went to pay it was £15.88 and not the £12 as advertised outside but couldn’t be bothered challenging as it was the missus’s birthday. Won’t be going there again as just not good enough.

Visited on a Saturday night with a group of 11 friends. Firstly we were asked to pre-order as a large group which we did but I don't think this works for tapas. The food was tasty, well cooked & presented nicely, cannot fault the food. However, the service was terrible, despite there being a lot of Staff on duty, we felt ignored by them. The restaurant was not busy but the staff were pretty much not there. We were ignored when arriving, one friend waited 20 minutes for a gin & tonic on arrival, when chased, response was rude not apologetic at all. We were not asked if anything was alright until we had finished, nor if we needed anything else and did not have the opportunity to order any more drinks than what we ordered on arrival as no staff came near the table. We would have had a lot more drinks if able to order so the restaurant missed out here. Turns out the young inexperienced staff felt no need to be present in the restaurant to respond to our needs but were more concerned with what appeared to be socialising and eating around the bar. There is a lack of supervision of the waiting on staff, hence we purposefully left no tip. Sadly despite the food being good & the ambiance & decor being lovely, we will not visit again as the staff are so inattentive. Sadly despite Sadly despite

The staff are friendly and attentive, the food is delicious and value for money and the atmosphere is classy but relaxed; we had a wonderful experience

The food was exceptional, excellent drinks and outstanding service. The tapas were the best we've had in a long time. I highly recommend it.

Been a few times and enjoyed every visit. The food is delicious, friendly staff, reasonable prices and very clean Definitely recommend

What a welcome, the food was excellent and the service second to none Salvatorie was an excellent generous host and Chris's food was amazing, we had such a good evening we went back the next night to sample the pizza, which was excellent, we wanted to sample the sweet menu but were too full, we will next time. Well done to you both for creating such a lovely restraunt and fantastic atmosphere you had better believe we will be back. Highly recommend

I booked a table for 6 for my wife's birthday through Mezzepotamia's website. I received a booking confirmation when I booked, but when we got to the restaurant the owners advised that they are closed for renovations. Unfortunately this isn't the first time a booking has been cancelled by the restaurant without them letting us know. Needless to say, we won't be booking a table there again.

Had a great meal at this restaurant. Good quality food and atmosphere. Service was excellent. Based on our experience we would recomend this restaurant .

This was our third visit, first was very good second lacking, today this wa a rip off. Garic stuffed mushrooms 7.50 good, waiter said starter special so ordered the mushrooms were cut in quarters in a liquor with too much chili not mentioendmy preference however the dish would have cost under a pound and charged at 10 pounds 50⁷ Main course meat dry risotto like Pudding just add sugar well over cooked prawn and asparagus perfect but will not go again After first meal reccomede now have to retract.to all😡
