"Booked online for 6 of us for a birthday meal for my son. Was met by a lady who was chewing gum (not acceptable in a restaurant front of house position) and was not particularly happy (waitress1) She said that there was a wait on food even though we had booked due to people wanting takeaways. We ordered drinks with another lady (waitress 2) who was very pleasant and she bought them to the table. She was followed by waitress 1 with the same drinks who made a point of telling us that waitress 2 had not ticked off that she had served the drinks, (in my opinion this belittling situation was very unnecessary). Even my 17 year old son said it was unfair on waitress 2. We ordered our food with waitress 2. Our food was delivered by waitress 1 and one of the dishes was incorrect. There was no apology and she said she would rectify the error, I waited for a long time for my meal, in fact, some of our group had just about finished their meal before it arrived. The meal was still missing the dressing that I had originally asked for. I was then told that they did not have the dressing that I was originally offered. Waitress 1 came over and asked if all was ok. I explained that we weren’t happy. Waitress 1 offered to take my meal off the bill. We went to the reception area to pay with waitress 3 who was lovely. She presented me with the bill which had my meal removed. Waitress 1 then came over and belittled waitress 3 saying she’d got the wrong bill for us. In fact, she had got the right copy. Waitress 3 appeared to be embarrassed by Waitress 1 behaviour. I paid and we left to have our dessert in a different place. Very disappointing for my sons birthday and we will not be going back. The restaurant was clearly understaffed and my overall opinion was poor customer service which was predominantly 1 member of staff"

"Went with a friend and we wanted to pay for our own items, the man who handed us the bill said if we want to pay individually we can use the app, when we said we want to use card the server said we can work it out ourselves and he stormed off like a child???? No clue what his problem was, then we sat there for several minutes waiting for him to return because he didn't want to wait for us to do a simple sum. Appalling behaviour."

"I’ve never been to an Ask Italian before, but my mother in law is a fan of their lasagne and wanted to take the family out. Initially staff were very friendly and helpful with our allergy needs. However, one person at our table ordered a...margarita with red peppers and, when it arrived with no red peppers, was told ‘they blended the red peppers into the sauce’. This is despite the fact my own pizza had red peppers on top… They were very slow to clear our plates, then even slower to bring out the dessert menu. When they eventually did, we were told that 5 of the desserts were unavailable because ‘we’d ordered them but they hadn’t arrived’. It would have been nice to know that before we chose our desserts. They didn’t seem busy or rushed off their feet. The chefs at the pizza oven were stood around with nothing to do for 10-15 minutes and one server was on his phone for a while. Not sure why they were so slow to serve and felt the need to lie about a wrong order!"

"These pizzas are absolutely awful These pizzas are absolutely awful. Ordered 2 and it cost 36 quid, not worth the money . Pizzas were small dry and tasted stale and also arrived freezing cold , straight in the bin after a few bites and feel ripped off. ****** disgraceful Tasted just like supermarket 1.99 pizza from the freezer Date of experience: 22 June 2024"

"Booked online last minute, no problem at all. Was on the busier side but seemed to be plenty of staff and everyone was in a good mood. Food was really nice, we normally go to pizza express and were surprised by the range of options. Only issue we ran into was the ordering via mobile rather than a person as it didn't seem to want to work but the waiter happily did it for us on his tablet. 9 year old daughter has asked that we go again when we're next somewhere with an Ask. Thanks. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free (non-gluten) pizza and pasta options available as well as vegan cheeses and gelatos. Kid-friendliness: Lots of options, our daughter loved the pasta dish and the bread sticks woth tomato dipping sauce. Wheelchair accessibility: Lift from car parking to entrance, and all flat with large doors."

"Great scran that. I smashed in the prawns, she had lasagne nuggets, I'm told they were lush. Wor lass had a salami misti pizza, she never said a word to me until the last slice, when help was required. Naturally, as a top lad, I consumed the rest of it for her. I had Brisket Pappardelle A.KA. posh spag bol. 100% pure taste, I got extra chilli in mine, would recommend. Great service canny food. Service: Dine in"

"Visited last night for my son's 21st birthday. Esther, Chantelle and Josh were our servers and we had absolutely excellent service. They were warm, friendly and helpful, despite them being clearly rushed off their feet in a busy restaurant. The chefs did an amazing job, the food was delicious, piping hot, and all came out together, despite us being a large party. We had a lovely evening!"

"The setting was pleasant, and the meals were satisfactory, but it didn't quite match the quality typically expected from a standard Italian restaurant. The bar staff provided good service, but unfortunately, our waitress was lacking and not very helpful."

"Came here for the first time ever with my boyfriend for our anniversary dinner and was so excited to try the carbonara as it looked so good on the picture on the online menu. When it came out it looked nothing like the picture, it was genuinely just boiled pasta with olive oil and cheese. It tasted watery, bland and oily with absolutely NO ham at all!! I told one of the waiters that I had ordered a carbonara and was presented with what seemed to be plain linguine to which he responded ‘just needs a bit more sauce’. They brought out my dish again and this time it had ham on it although it still looked nothing like advertised. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and gave it a taste and it tasted the exact same. Bland, oily boiled pasta. I genuinely lost my appetite after 3 bites and felt scammed that this dish was £14 so I tried to call over a waiter and this is when the TERRIBLE customer service kicked in. I understand that the restaurant was busy but I was sat there for about 20 minutes with my hand up and said excuse me to every waiter that walked by just to get ignored. It was honestly humiliating. I finally got the attention of a waiter who didn’t come over and instead told me to wait and he’d be over in a minute but after 10 minutes of waiting he still didn’t come over and in the mean time we were STILL trying to speak to a waiter. Meanwhile I heard a man behind us, complaining about cold pasta and I went to ask him if he had complained, and he said that he did and they managed to take it off the bill. Finally a waiter came and I told him about the disgrace of a carbonara that was served to me and I asked for it to be taken off the bill to which he apologised and agreed to do. Then we just sat around waiting 30 minutes for anyone to come back and give us the bill. I was so upset and frustrated I was trying to hold back tears as I was REALLY looking forward to eating here for our date (I was so hungry too lol). Then it got even worse… the waiter had just gone to get us a bill to which another waiter came up to us and asked us if we wanted the bill. I told her it was already getting taken care of but then she came back with the bill full price without taking off the price of the carbonara. I told her we were meant to have the carbonara taken off the bill to which she crumpled the receipt in my boyfriend’s face, scoffed and walked off. We then had about 4 waiters crowded around us over this issue which was really overwhelming and embarrassing. The waiter came back with a new ‘upgraded’ bill to which she said the manager had given us a ‘manager discount’ of £7 off, I was appalled as we had been told that the carbonara would be completely taken off the bill as I didn’t even eat it and not some measly £7 discount. After arguing with her, she told me that I had to speak to the manager if I wanted it changed so I demanded to speak to the manager but never got to, it’s whatever because the waiter finally came back with the THIRD bill which took off the carbonara. All that hassle just to leave with an empty stomach. It was honestly the worst restaurant experience of my life, I cried as soon as I got home because it was so frustrating and humiliating. This is my first time writing a review on anything but the food the customer service was so bad that I felt compelled to write this review. Do yourself a favour and never visit this restaurant. It needs a lot of work. I also have pictures of my bland pasta and all the receipts. I understand that maybe they are a troubled restaurant and low on staff but the bland food is definitely not worth the extortionate price. The customer service was terrible as well and usually I’m quite compassionate towards waiters as I know it’s a rough job, but they didn’t even come to check on us once. We practically had to beg to be heard out. As a restaurant please do better, I sincerely don’t want anyone else having this bad of an experience."

"A very busy Friday evening in Norwich with the fireworks at I booked the table for of us at arrived and were shown immediately to our table. With a seven year old and a nine year old they enjoyed their meal of pasta, dunk and dip. The waiter was very attentive and dealt with them very well. They enjoyed the meal. Everything ordered came out together in a timely way even though the restaurant was filling up. My wife had a pizza that she enjoyed. Altogether a nice evening meal for generations"

"The staff at the restaurant was welcoming and it was great to see vegan options on the menu. The kids' menu also offered vegan choices, which was a pleasant surprise. The Vegan Bruschetta, made with toasted pagnotta bread and marinated tomatoes, was delicious and even better than the pizza. It had a fresh and vibrant taste. I would definitely recommend it! We also tried a pizza with Marinated Artichokes, Sautéed Mushrooms, and Grilled Eggplants. The crust was good and the vegetables were cooked well. While the Italian restaurant may still want to consider adding meat options, we were satisfied with our vegan meal."

"Arguably one of Britain’s favourite restaurants but this one is a let down, we waited at the door for a solid 5 minutes before even being looked at which made my kids feel very uncomfortable. When we finnnallly got served we weren’t greeted with the smile you would expect when you are paying for someone’s services. We couldn’t stand this level of customer service so we just ordered online. A redeeming factor is that the online system is easy to navigate and to order from. From ordering online to receiving our food it took 45 minutes and what we got was cold and hard after being left under a heat lamp, and for the prices they charge it wasn’t worth the small flat pieces of cold chicken we got. The service was dismal at best and the cleanliness was very poor. I don’t believe in 1 star reviews so they are lucky to be getting a 2. Don’t go here."

"high standard. The recent refurbishment has definitely enhanced the overall atmosphere of the restaurant, making it a more modern and welcoming space. The staff are always friendly and attentive, and the food is consistently delicious. We particularly enjoyed the pasta dishes and the selection of pizzas on the menu. Overall, ASK is a great choice for a casual meal out in Leicester."
"We have visited this ASK restaurant several times now and each visit has been wonderful. I arrived with a friend who eats meat, but we decided to share the vegan sides (garlic bread, side salad, and roast potatoes) and I enjoyed the spaghetti al pomodoro without mozzarella, which was delicious. We also shared the blood orange and chocolate tart. We will definitely be returning."

"Ummmm...YUM! Plus good service. 5 stars in my book. We were in search of something good to eat after a long day of walking and sight seeing in London. Baker Street was off the tube line on the way back to the hotel so we decided to stop here. We wandered around for a bit when a local sneezed on me and apologized. He asked if we were lost. We said no, just looking for somewhere good to eat that was kid friendly since we had my 16 month and 3 year old nieces with me. He pointed us down the street and said there was a few down that way. The first one we came across was ASK. There was also a sign outside that said Father 's Eat Free on Father 's Day! it was Father 's Day and my brother is all about free stuff so we went in. We were greeted warmly immediately and allowed to pick a table. We sat right in the front away from the other patrons because we know how the girls can get late at night especially when they are tired and hungry. The server brought over very cool jumbo wooden crayons for the girls to play with and also gave them some paper to color a Father 's Day message for my brother. Very cute. They offered to order us bread and we knew that it wasn 't free because we had a moment to see on the menu that there was a charge for it. We were STARVING so we went ahead and got some. I 'm so glad that we did. It was DELICIOUS. My 3 year old niece who is a very picky eater wanted more and more. She could have easily ate a whole order by herself. For our meals we decided to share a pizza and pasta dish amongst the three adults. We ordered the Caprina Primo Pizza and the Rigatoni di Manzo Piccante pasta dish. They both were EXCELLENT. The toppings on the pizza perfectly complimented each other and the pasta was probably one of the best I have ever consumed...and I have consumed a lot of pasta. We were definitely very pleased with our selections. Service was great until the end. Our server even helped us get the massive double stroller out the front door for us. We were definitely very pleased with our experience at ASK."
"This restaurant was fantastic! We were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary taste of their homemade lemonade, which was incredibly delicious and refreshing. The meals were also very tasty and served in generous portions."

"I've never walked out of a restaurant before, and I've been to quite a few! Unfortunately, the food was terrible; there was no option for the pasta I wanted, not even the ones listed on the menu. When my meal finally arrived, it was cold, and all dishes had the same pasta with barely any sauce. I sent it back, but it came back microwaved, causing whatever sauce was there to vanish completely! We apologized to the wonderfully attentive staff, who truly tried to help, and then we decided to leave. Now, we're dining somewhere else and feeling relieved we did! Service: Dine in"

"book a table for by opentable becouse ask italian online booking not working properly and not answer the phone despite rings for a few minutes we sat and then came the manager and asked the booking. he explained that ask italian no longer used opentable. that was very embarrassing. I felt we were not welcome. the man came back and asked for the booking confirmation. fortunately I printed the booking confirmation and could show him this we ordered our starter and net. Unfortunately, the starters did not arrive and one of the main things was missing. the management gave us a reasonable discount without asking, which was polite and respectful although I had given a bad evaluation, I would nevertheless return this to a unique experience, as ask italian has provided a very good service for a family-oriented base restaurant for us in the last few years. it may be due to a change in management at this particular branch. we're going back. If there is a re-creation, we will assume that there is a decline in the service that it traditionally provides and goes elsewhere."
