Thankfully Gianni's does, and we managed to book a table effortlessly online via Toptable. Set just outside the main centre of Harrogate, Gianni's is a bright modern restaurant, with a sizeable bar, and very friendly, efficient staff. We were shown to sizeable round table even though there was only two of us, this was a nice touch, sometimes two person tables can feel a little cramped. The whole restaurant had a spacious feel, and was equally suited to couples, groups or families with children: the restaurant was about half full on the night we visited. We chose the early bird menu, £12.95 apiece for two courses, a sufficiently varied selection of dishes. After we had chosen our mains, we were given a complimentary bread basket, with a varied of freshly baked breads, served with a black olive tapenade and a spicy tomato dip, a lovely start to the meal. For my main, I had a mushroom based ravioli with a creamy tomato sauce, topped off with parmesan, full of flavour and a big portion, washed down with a giant 660ml bottle of Peroni, perfect! My wife had the salmon accompanied by the ratatouille, one of the best pieces of salmon she had ever eaten. Obviously you have to have a dessert, its almost compulsory, I went for the mixed gelato, an unusual choice, but a great combination of interesting flavours. My wife had had the homemade profiteroles with a jug of warm chocolate sauce! Finished off the obligatory coffee, Gianni's was a chance find, but one which we will definitely visit again next time we visit Harrogate

I'm not sure if it was coincidence or not, but my husband and I felt like we were ignored while the other patrons were well cared for. Not sure if it's because we were tourists or what? The food was overall pretty good. The bread and olive tapenade in the beginning was delicious. My husband ordered the lasagna which I felt was lacking in flavor. I went with a classic margarita pizza which was delicious. The best part of the meal was the gelato we ordered for dessert. We got both the mint chocolate and coffee crunch flavors. So tasty!

All this should merit a 4 star review The huge BUT (you knew it was coming) is a curious lack of efficiency. It can take ages for the staff to bring you a menu, then take a drinks order, then take your food order Last time I ate here we sat for ages before the menu came. Then we had to ask for childrens menu and they brought one - I have 3 children (who were all sitting there so hardly difficult to see) so we then to ask for 2 more childrens menus. This sort of thing should be automatic in such a restaurant and you shouldn't have to ask repeatedly. I still eat here fairly regularly but find this regular lack of smooth service very frustrating.

On a recent short break to Harrogate, we had walked by Burgers and More on numerous occasions, as…read morewe completed the short walk into the town centre. Having perused the menu and always in search of decent burger, we booked a table effortlessly over the Internet. The restaurant itself is at the base of the Kimberley Hotel, with sport being shown on various TVs dotted around, but it never intruded on the dining area. The décor was modern, but comfortable, with various pieces of striking artwork adorning the walls. We were shown straight to our booth type table by a helpful member of staff, and whilst we chose from what is a copious menu, the friendly owner, proudly explained each one of the burgers. His enthusiasm for his creations was impressive. Burgers ranged from plain, to ones adorned with onion bhajis, and a 'New Yorker' which was a burger sandwiched between two pancakes dressed with maple syrup! So much choice; as well as burgers, they are famed locally for their pizzas too. You could even have a plate three smaller burgers or three smaller pizzas, if you struggled to make a firm choice. If you were feeling particularly ravenous you could have stacks of numerous burgers from 2 to 5, each having a name like 'Blackpool Tower' and 'The Shard'. Suffering from quite a heavy cold, which was annoyingly suppressing my appetite, I plumped for the 'Black Beauty', a burger with black pudding inside it, I know it sounds wrong, but it was delicious and the accompanying crisp fries and dressed salad, complemented the meal perfectly. What I did like about Burgers & More though, as well as the impressive service was that my wife, not being a huge burger fan, just fancied egg and chips, which although was not on the menu, was made for her without any fuss. I was very impressed and I will return to sample more of the menu, hopefully when my appetite has returned!

The service was rushed, inattentive, surly, didn't know anything about setting cutlery, it was just awful! The food was bland, using cheap ingredients, badly prepared and overpriced. As just one example, the chicken was clearly processed chicken out of a bag, and tasted of nothing. As another example, the prawns were clearly frozen prawns and not fresh. When you compare this to Jamie's Italian, and you know you're paying the same prices for fraction of the quality you get at Jamie's it is very very very disappointing. Waste of money. Avoid!

Wonderful staff that are quite attentive, but not intrusive. The pace at which each course was brought out was just right. They have a nice sized menu that gives plenty of options without it taking you a half-hour to look everything over. Though a cafe during the day, Caffè Marconi is a pizzeria at night. There is a decent wine selection, but beer lovers may feel rather limited by the 3 beers available. Only one of which is draft. Only one thing to say about the food itself: delicious! And a great value too. Our full three course meal for two, with drinks, and coffee with dessert came out well under £50. This place, unlike so many Italian restaurants I've been to in the UK, actually feels very Italian... not just a British take on what Italian is. This caffè/pizzeria is associated with Sasso, a formal Italian restaurant just a few doors down. Great place! Highly recommended!

The wonderful sight and smell of food, both savoury and sweet greets you as you enter, as do the smiles of the enthusiastic staff. Tables of various sizes and shapes, mean that all sizes of party can be catered for; there is also quite a sizeable area of outdoor seating, perfect for the summer. We managed to grab the last one on offer; as we had only just arrived in Harrogate, we really just wanted a snack, but the pizzas going past us on slate boards looked very tempting. We opted for a cappuccino and an americano, both served in a mug, and even came with a small plate to rest the teaspoon, a nice touch. The coffee was strong and flavoursome, and a good accompaniment for the food. We also ordered a Contadino sandwich: a warm sandwich with smoked chicken, olives, marinated vegetables, including artichoke, all dressed with basil mayonnaise, a wonderfully tasty sandwich, just right. I would have liked it with an accompanying salad though, it looked a bit sparse on the plate. Only a minor point though, the cappuccino cream filled pastry we had as a treat to finish the meal, was lovely.

Stuzzi is a too-good-to-be-true trifecta of wonderful food, excellent service, and reasonable pricing. The menu is small sharing plates, as many places are these days. With a group of four we got to have quite a lot of that menu. The tagliatelle in ox cheek ragu was a marvel of simplicity. The arancini completely changed my mind about a dish I've always considered an overrated way for a restaurant to dispose of extra risotto. The wine and cheese were superb, chosen for us by the charming wait staff. The digestif menu features a small but punchy selection of grappas -- never a given at British Italian restaurants and always appreciated by me.

They also have a nice selection of Italian deli bits and bobs for you to take away with you. We found some of the charcuterie and cheese impossible to resist. The idea is to order a few tapas sized portions of various dishes and then mix and match with your eating partners - and it works a treat. Not quite full? Order something else - the kitchen is efficient and we have never waited too long. Now that we are semi-regulars the staff have got to know us to some extent. I am very much into my wine and I take some care when ordering a bottle any place I go. At Stuzzi when they ask me what I want to drink I now just ask them to 'bring me something interesting' and that is exactly what they do. They have never let me down. Every time the wine that arrives at the table is well selected - delicious and not unreasonably priced. This is a restaurant that wants people to enjoy the wines on offer so the prices are sensible - in so many places these days the price of a decent bottle is ridiculous, but here you will find the opposite. If you want fine dining and silver service that's not what this place is about. It's too laid back for that and it's now what they set out to do. Instead you are served excellent food in an unhurried environment, and that vibe always seems to be found at every table. Fun, tasty, easy.
