This is the fifth time we've been here in the last month. Food is just fabulous. There's a great…read moreatmosphere and Leo, the co-owner always goes out of his way to make sure everyone is having a great time. The garlic bread reminds me of the thin crispy pizza we had in Rome last year, especially the Focaccia Pomodoro which we have every time we come here. It's thin crispy with a chewy crust and is delicious. My husband had the Crab Ravioli (again!) and I had the Ribeye with Porcini sauce which was just gorgeous. I don't have any pictures as by the time I remembered to review it, I had finished it off. My husband had the Creme Brûlée for dessert and I had Leo's homemade Nutella Cheesecake. He made his own Nutella as well as the cheesecake. I really would recommend this place. You can tell that they have taken their time with the food and Chef Ben (Leo's brother and co-owner) is a genius with steak. Everything is made to order and you can tell.

Hmmm Bellini's you promise so so much, yet fall ever so short. You weren't bad by any means, no no…read moreno, however you made some silly mistakes that took you down to a 3. Ok I'll stop talking like Simon Cowell now, but really, come on guys, you have a beautiful restaurant, in a lovely area in Ramsbottom, yet it takes you 45 minutes to prepare a plate of cold meat for my starter? Maybe Manchester's vibrant foodie scene has turned me into a snob or maybe Bellini's had an off day, it happens to us all, but on this particular occasion I was left with a mixed feeling on the place. I was really looking forward to it as I'd heard fantastic things, and as stated, the place looks fantastic! The guys working were friendly enough and seemed genuinely Italian which gives great culture to a place, just on this visit, the service or rather speed of it, let them down massively. The food, Antipasto platter to start and Meat Pizza for mains, actually tasted great and the options of Parmesan and Olive Oil on top finished it perfectly. However waiting 45 minutes for your starters in a half full restaurant isn't great, so for that and that alone, you guys lose a star. Look on the bright side though Bellini, no doubt I'll be back in the future and on a night that I can drink more than 1 glass of red wine, so you could see this jump up soon!

I've been coming to San Rocco for years, mainly with family for occasions such as birthdays and…read moreanniversaries - and I've always had an amazing experience here. 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.

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.

Verona 'Ristorante', as the door announces, is a lovely Italian restaurant on the corner of Silver…read moreStreet which makes a nice change from the Italian chains. So, for my friends and I it has always seemed like the kind of place you might go for some semi-occasion; not forgetting that our budgets don't stretch that far. It fulfills this purpose perfectly as there is a variety of prices among the pasta dishes and mains. I love Italian: wonderful Canneloni here (with both meat and spinach/ cheese inside which is unusual but a treat) and the Pollo Stilton with bacon is also recommended. Their pizzas are ok, but nothing special and I tend not to order these anyway when I eat out. Verona is good for groups with very friendly staff but they do add on an extra service charge of 10% for groups of 8 or more, so be warned. Their grace, speed and efficiency comes at a price.

The service is very good and the friendly staff make you feel very comfortable and relaxed. My partner and I dined in the evening on 7th June and shared an Antipasta between us, the selection of meats, mozarella, tomatoes and olives were beautifully presented and flavoursome. We followed this delightful starter with Farfalle Al Salmone and Gnochietti which was italian sausage and tomato sauce. The sauces on these were absolutely stunning, full of flavour, in fact I usually cannot manage all my pasta but it was too good to leave any. Whatever you guys are doing it is obviously with passion, not overpriced just value and a fair price for very good food. Will definately recommend to friends
