My starter of Mussels in Spicy Tomato sauce was lush with just the right ratio of onions to spice and a really good portion of Mussels. Main course size, in fact. My main of stuffed Rabbit saddle, Wood Pigeon breast & Italian sausage on Polenta & gravy was cooked to perfection, really nice with good, strong flavours. And once again a really decent helping. The espresso & Amaretto topped ice cream was a great finish too. Our waitress (the owner, I think) was a mature, welcoming lady who was nice to speak with and knowledgeable about the menu. We used our Hi-ife card and would return anytime we're up that way. Bob On!

I have been to Eliano's Brasseria a few times now and each time I go I am satisfied with both the…read morefood and the high level of customer service that I receive. Although the inside of the building is not the classiest or even most chic decorated I have ever seen there is still a nice feeling of a warming atmosphere. We wee seated almost immediately and out drinks arrive several minutes after, at times it does get quite busy so if you are in a party I would strongly recommend booking a table otherwise you might be stood waiting for a while. Many other restaurants that I have been to don't offer authentic Italian food, I ordered the lasagne and I absolutely loved it and if I go again I'm certain this is what I will order. Surprisingly the food is quite reasonably priced. Definitely another one to visit

Real range of age customers though. I'm always a bit miffed when I order restaurant lasagne instead of the stuff we make at home, but that's personal preference and it did still taste great.

They were full but managed to reserve us a table at 8.30. Arriving a little early, the weather was slightly inclement (OK it was peeing down), we were guided to the bar for a pre-dinner drink. I now realise why Northerners complain about London prices. A double Grey Goose vodka for £4.50, a no brainer. At 8.30 exactly, our table was ready. Fantastic menu, delicious food and impeccable service. To start I ordered antipasto for one. This plateful arrived. The waitress explained that this was for one, with a smile. Obviously, the kitchen had made a mistake and plated up for two. One the final bill, antipasto for one. I cannot recommend this restaurant any more, almost a five star in my opinion. Only drawback was the final coffee was very bitter. However, a minor drawback. Great Italian atmosphere, noisy but welcoming.

Gorgeous italian style restaurant right near the Dorman Museum, beware that parking may be an issue…read moreas there is no direct parking outside. It may also be advisable to make an advance booking as it can get quite full. It's very small inside and the tables are close together. The wait for food literally depends on your party size. We went with quite a large party and found ourselves waiting quite a while. The food is really good quality though a little pricy. There's a big array of pizzas and pastas and other italian foods. The desserts are nice though the choice of ice cream for children is very limited. The staff are really nice here and polite. Generally a nice spot for birthdays and celebrations. There is also an upstairs to hire out.
