"had a nice experience here. eating was some of the best Italian chain we had recently, and service was very good. can not quite give 5 stars simply because eating, although good was slightly under seasoned (probably not the fault of the chef as much as the way that eating is produced). but the best question in which I have been in for several years (and the chain is quite reliable)."

"we went to an early meal on a Saturday, as I wanted a good dish pasta to load on carbs the next day. I got the food I needed, an excellent rosmarin bread to begin and a very large part of the chicken penance I could not finish. I had not expected the restaurant to be so busy at this time. there were families with young children and teenage parties, which there are very loud and a little slow in service with employees rushed around trying to keep all customers happy. In summary, eating was good, but avoiding them if they like a quiet meal and a chat."

"Last New Year's Eve, we dined at another Ask Italian location (Paddington), and it was so enjoyable that we didn't hesitate to book again, this time at their Park Street location in London. It was quite busy on New Year's Eve, but that didn't pose any issues. The staff were incredibly friendly and polite. We had a great table and were even treated to a small welcome drink. There was a wide selection on the menu, and once again, the food was excellent. I highly recommend it!"

"This is a great restaurant, and I always come here for lunch if I am in Wells. It has a nice bright modern looking interior and the staff are friendly and helpful. It is situated at the top of town next to the street market and just before you get to the cathederal. Ask is a family friendly restaurant with plenty of high chairs and last time I was in here with my children they gave my little girl an activity pack with little pencils and stickers which I thought was a really nice touch and it kept her amused. The have a good range of pizzas and pastas, my favourite is the vegetairan pizza which has loads of nice chunks of vegetables in it, the pizza is not quite as nice a pizza express pizzas but they do a better range of pasta. My favourite dish is their baked mushroom starter, it is delicious!"

"Unfortunately, our visit to this restaurant was very disappointing. Despite being extremely busy, there was not enough staff and those present seemed inexperienced. We waited for more than five minutes at the door before anyone acknowledged us, and even longer before we were seated. After 10 minutes at our table, no one had taken our order so we had to use the app to order (not ideal for dining in a restaurant). An hour after arriving, our starters arrived but our drinks were still missing, so we had to ask for them. When the drinks finally arrived, one was missing and the waitress seemed confused. We waited with dirty plates on the table for around 20 minutes after finishing our starters. The waitress then cleared the plates and after another 15 minutes, our main dishes arrived. Unfortunately, they had run out of pizza, which we did not order. My dish (beef pappardelle) was good, but my partner's (pollo Milanese) was cold. The tables were sticky and the toilets were out of toilet paper. We spoke to another customer who had also had a poor experience. They mentioned considering asking for their food to go due to the long wait. It seems that the option for takeaway or delivery may be affecting the restaurant's service quality. Overall, the experience was not worth the cost. Service: Dine in. Meal type: Dinner. Price per person: £20-30."

"I went to italia in basingstoke yesterday with some friends. the starter and the drinks were really good, but my pasta court and other girls at my table were unfortunately quite bad (it happened! . worked for many years in restaurants and busy with complaining all the time, I said nothing to our server when she seemed busy and didn't want to disturb her. when the bill came, she took mine and the other girls pasta dishes off when she noticed that we didn't eat them. the girl is petite with long escapes, I just wanted to thank because that was a really nice gesture and her service was so good!"

"We booked a table on Saturday evening at It was busy when we went in, but we got greeted by the Manager (came from Bodrum) and he seated us. He took our order and then we were looked after by Liliana, lovely polish lady...who continued to look after us throughout the evening and greeted us with a little drink on the house. Our meal as always was piping hot and very tasty. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The Manager at one point could see I was looking round to attract attention and came over to see what I wanted, he was at the till at the time, but his customer service along with Liliana was very good. Thank you for making our evening a very pleasant one."

"The restaurant is located on the shore beneath several other restaurants. The service was friendly and efficient. We both enjoyed the salmon salad and a glass of house red wine. The only issue we encountered was that despite making a reservation on Opentable several days in advance, the restaurant had no record of our booking. However, we called a few hours before arriving to confirm."

"It was my twins 27th birthday. At first they couldn’t find the booking and we were left standing in a large queue. Two out of three toilets were broken, the third became blocked which left the disabled toilet which had no toilet paper! However the food was good although the atmosphere was chaotic and very noisy. I requested a birthday cake that there was no record of."

"I hope we just visited on a day when things weren’t running smoothly. The restaurant wasn’t very busy when we arrived, and we had planned for an hour and a half before our theater reservation. We didn’t order any starters, except for my granddaughter, who was supposed to get crudités and dough sticks as part of her kids' meal. We had to ask for those after her pizza had already arrived. The garlic bread and zucchini fries came before our main courses, even though we had requested everything to be served together. We also waited a long time for the staff to take our dessert order, only to be informed that one of our choices was out of stock. After another long wait for the desserts to arrive, we were left with only five minutes to eat them before heading to the theater. The setting is wonderful; it's just a shame the overall experience didn't match."

"Very bad service. It was obvious they wanted to close early. Bought out our mains when still eating starters. Turned a table of people away when the restaurant was empty. Our Waitrose was outside smoking and on her phone, when she came back in we had to call her over and she cleared our plates with her coat on. We asked for coffees but were told they had switched the machine off as they wanted to close because they âdidnât have any customersâ this was on a Saturday night. Very disappointed."

"The food at this restaurant was delicious and the service was friendly, but not overly attentive. When we arrived, the restaurant was quite empty even though we had made a reservation 5 days in advance. Despite this, we were seated at a table in the middle of the restaurant that seemed to have been set up last minute. We requested to sit at one of the more comfortable, padded booths (which would have been easier with our children), but were told that it was already reserved. However, no one ended up sitting there during our meal, which was frustrating."
"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"
"When we visited this restaurant, there was a bit of a wait for our food, but we were informed beforehand and it was not a problem for us. The staff were some of the friendliest we have ever encountered in a chain restaurant. The atmosphere was lovely, especially on the upper floor which felt particularly cozy. We also appreciated the offer of a discount with our blue light card. We would definitely return to Durham again."

"it took 90 minutes to get 2 courses the first cure was really terrible and the chips were on places black . also it was warm, not hot, obviously after having been left to boil. We mentioned that to the waitress and she said she was going to tell the kitchen. the main course lasted 35 minutes to come after and it was very bad. the waitress said that she would make a change request to the bill, and when we asked her, she said that we don't have to pay because she appreciates how terrible it was and how disappointed we were."
"on 26 December birthday of my wife the restaurant had unfortunately a crash with her cook in the night before the problems caused with service, eating and storage level. the manager had explained the situation and that it is a very low teig deficiency....not great in a pizza and pasta restaurant. of course ordered pasta, which then also let the pasta run out. we didn't get what we wanted on our pasta selection, that didn't taste good either. fortunately we were not charged for these 3 courts. the staff and management were friendly and professional. they did their best to serve us well in the circumstances. I personally expected better because I was a reservation for 8, 4 of them were children and it was the birthday of my wife. in the evening of the boxing days it was not possible in the last minute elsewhere. on the bright side was still open."

"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."
