Staying at the The Royal Toby Hotel you really only have 2 options for dinner; the main restaurant…read moreand pub at the hotel and Cenetta across the parking lot from the hotel. The Cenetta is an Italian themed restaurant done right. The food, service and ambiance is fantastic. The only thing that could make it better would be more Italian red wine, tons of great reds from Italy out there but very limited here. I started with the spicy garlic olives. Next up was a chorizo and prawn app in a tomato sauce. For my main course I had the sea bass with fennel and spinach. This restaurant is huge. Much bigger than you would expect from the outside. Total seating is 100+. When you arrive you have to descend a flight of stairs. So, it's essentially underground. A bit cooler on a hot day like today. The inside has several arched columns with a stone/tile looking floor. The bar is a bit on the smallish side, seats maybe 5 people. Next time I'm in Rochdale, I'll be here for dinner!

What Dolce Vita lacks somewhat in kerb appeal (it's located in a small shopping precinct in a…read moreresidential area next to a main road), it more than makes up for with its food and atmosphere. They've been here for probably 20 years or more now, and the location of several of my family's celebratory meals in the past - it always seems to be bustling with diners inside. They've recently updated the menu to remain fresh with current tastes. Last night it was for a friend's birthday so we committed ourselves to having three courses :) We ordered two Pane all'aglio (garlic breads) - one with cheese, one with tomato, to munch on whilst we looked at the menu - they were so moreish. Most of us went for either meatballs or marinated ribs for starters. The portions are generous so be mindful if you've already had the aforementioned garlic breads! For mains, pasta and pizza features strongly (as you'd expect), but there are quite a few alternatives such as steaks and fish dishes. My ravioli, when sprinkled with parmesan and black pepper, was hearty and delicious. For dessert I ordered what ended up being one of the largest servings of tiramisu I'd ever seen; though it was so light and creamy it wasn't difficult to polish off! Despite it being very busy the service was efficient and friendly - we were well taken care of. They're an old local favourite that I'd recommend to others.

Although we have been let down once or twice, over all the food has always been warming, the service is quick and the staff are truly polite and lovely! I'd say that once or twice out of +20 times isn't too bad! Tonight we went for an early Christmas Eve dinner (as I won't be in Oldham for Christmas) and it was yet again delicious. I decided to have the venison but changed the wild berry and port sauce for the diane - the staff accepted this without a blink and both the meat and sauce were cooked to perfection and the plate was well and truly cleared! We also enjoyed some king prawns, garlic pizza bread (get the tomato it's scrumptious!), and the flat mushrooms with tomato and feta - NOM NOM NOM! A great night had as always - we'll be back!

The staff are welcoming and friendly - we've been on first name basis with the manager, Mario, for a while now. The menu and the food is authentic Italian cuisine, always fresh and always cooked just how I like it. They vary their specials menu every few weeks so I always have the opportunity to try something new. Having said that, I can't remember a time I've been here and haven't ordered a steak! They're just spot on every time so I would most definitely recommend! Mum loves the Monkfish, which I was lucky enough to try last time! It's lovely.

The staff are extremely attentive and friendly as you would expect at a place like this. My family have been coming to this restaurant since before I was born, my parents literally just followed the aroma of garlic during their first visit to Bury and ended up here (which probably explains why I'm such a garlic fiend!). The restaurant was much smaller back then but has expanded over the years without losing the welcoming family vibe, or the mesmerising array of empty wine bottles hanging from the ceiling. The food is always delicious and very reasonably priced - through the week they have special deals on e.g. 2 courses & a coffee for £12.95 which is excellent value. Or, the early bird special, any pizza, pasta or risotto for £6.90! Not only is the food great, but the welcoming atmosphere will keep you coming back for many a year to come.

The food certainly is of excellent quality. Tucked away a short walk from the Bury Interchange, it's a hidden gem. Shared really nice garlic bread with cheese with my dinner guest for our starter. Farfalle al Salmone was my main, and a simple combination of pasta, onions, smoked salmon and creamy tomato sauce - beautifully done and really filling too. Dessert would normally be a Tiramisu, but my friend and I went for the White Chocolate Profiteroles, served in a sundae dish - really nice ! The bill was another lovely surprise - well two in fact; being hand-written (a real novely these days), and then coming in at around £30 for the two of us. A visit to Bury is recommended for this lovely family run restaurant.
