"We came here for a family meal. It's my second visit to Ciao in the last couple pt months. I won't be going there again and there are my reasons why: -I ordered vegetable pasta for main. It was cold, undercooked and lacked a lot of flavour. I'm just shocked that an Italian restaurant cannot get a simple dish right. -During my previous visit, I ordered vegetarian pizza. The base was soggy. There was too much cheese and the vegetables were wet like they were out of a jar. Very disappointing. -One person was left waiting for their meal to arrive. So ours arrived and his arrived 20 minutes later and still, it hadn't fully arrived as it was missing the dry tasteless vegetables. -We ordered hot drinks. They arrived late and were luke warm. -It's busy I get it but don't have a restaurant if you can't deliver to standards. Ciao Ciao!"

"We had the best Italian meal at this restaurant! All four of us were extremely satisfied with our dishes. The two guys ordered filet steak, which came with chips and salad, and both agreed it was the best they've ever had. I opted for a chicken pasta in a lovely creamy sauce, while our other friend enjoyed the lasagna and loved it as well. We started with garlic bread and some garlic mushrooms, which were great and came in generous portions! I would definitely recommend this place and will absolutely return if we’re in the area. The only downside was that it was quite warm inside the restaurant, so we stepped outside for some fresh air. Other than that, everything was perfect!"

"We as a Family of three went to this Restaurant to celebrate my Wife’s Birthday. She had been once before and raved that I would enjoy it. We arrived at the reserved table time to be met by a wall of people waiting for tables, I announced our arrival at the bar and we were soon seated. First impressions, the ethos was not quality and comfort, rather let’s cram in as many people as we can, and bluster our way through service, fair enough, business is business. Starter, passable, but the reason for this review was my main course, a Vegetarian dish of Pasta with aubergine and caramelised onion, with a garlic and parsley sauce, drizzle of balsamic vinegar. The reality of the dish was a bowl of pasta with said aubergine and caramelised onion, omitting any sauce other that the bowl of balsamic vinegar that soaked everything, rendering the meal inedible, and I did try, hungry at the wait of 35 minutes between starter and main course. When the uneaten course was snatched from the table had the waiter asked if there was a problem I would have said, but he didn’t, and in being this a special occasion I was not going to pursue and embarrass the company. The experience? Big tables got better service, food, poor."

"Looking for somewhere quick and easy to eat on a Tuesday night in Halifax. The town was dead, everywhere was shut but we stumbled upon here. It felt like we'd stumbled into Fawlty Towers but it smelt amazing and actually the food didnt disappoint at all. Huge portions, I was even asked if I wanted to take my leftover spaghetti carbonara home!! Pizza for breakfast yes, spaghetti no!!!It was so quiet in the restaurant, no atmosphere whatsoever, it felt like I was sitting in a train station waiting room of old. Everything could do with bringing up to date by 20 years but having said that the food was pretty delicious and at the end of the day that's why we were there. Don't expect a romantic experience but if you're looking for large portions and decent food, this could be the place for you."

"Don’t know what’s happened to Zucca but it’s not the restaurant it used to be. Sat next to the bar where the waitress was clattering everything about, doesn’t make for a relaxing evening. When you charge £34 for a fillet steak you would expect it to be top notch but instead it was chewy and not a good cut of beef. Truffle and Parmesan fries had to ask for Parmesan to sprinkle over them!! Arrabbiata was passable but have had better elsewhere. Deserts cheesecake, couldn’t get the spoon through the base, described as vanilla and honeycomb flavour but tasteless, really poor. Pineapple carpaccio with the panna cotta should be thin not chunks, think they desperately need a pastry chef. Staff disengaged! Overpriced mediocrity!"

"I was taken by some friends as a thank you for all the time I spend looking after their property when they are away. They had been before and really hyped it up. I have never been so disappointed in a meal. It was like going to a Michelin starred restaurant and being served something from the local takeaway. The place is beautiful but my meal did not live up to what I anticipated . I know I should have complained but did not want to upset or embarrass my friends. I ordered the linguine pescatore as I love fish of all kinds. I honestly would not have served that in my home. The only flavour was the huge amount of parmesan put on it. The prawns were the miniscule frozen ready cooked ones. There were about 6 small pieces of squid and as for the mussels, there were 9 of which 2 were empty shells, 1 which hadn't opened and the rest minute and dry. There was no chilli, no olives and no sign of caper paste. Don't know where the wine was and about 4 cherry tomatoes. The pasta was over cooked and stuck to itself. I know an espresso coffee is small but I have never had so little coffee in one ever. To say the least this will be my first and last visit."

"Visited for Mother’s Day. Heard really good things about how it used to be-authentic Italian, the food today was not that. Deep fried mozzarella was just frozen mozzarella sticks with tomato sauce, pizza was dripping with grease and it was a veggie option with no meat! Desert, the cheesecake was either off or not set as was really runny, the chocolate ice cream was absolutely disgusting and tasted like crunchy dust! The tiramisu was ok but nothing to shout about. When telling the waitress about the ice cream she didn’t seem to bothered. There was one lovely waitress, I didn’t catch her name but she was great! Overall, won’t be returning again as was mediocre at best."

"really sad to leave this review! as they can see from previous reviews here on google, I have always been a big fan of this restaurant and has been here regularly since its first opening. I feel that food standards are slipping. a little. Last couple times I was there something or others wasn't great. or sometimes eating is ok, but service really slow. all this is still acceptable, as I have still declined. last time I ordered the homemade focaccia I received a few of the smallest bites I wish I had made a photo. it was quite appalling for £4.25 and they were rock hard! I managed to get my money back for this article about ubereats and I forgot the experience. today I ordered ubereats again and this time I tried the gluten-free garlic bread. I'm in shock! It's hard and thin like a tortilla and there were only 3 pieces. I eat gluten-free much so that this is really unacceptable to me for an Italian restaurant. it is certainly not worth the £5 I was loaded and also hardly edible really! I'm really sad to leave the review, but I felt it necessary as I had a few bad visits now. I might have to think again before I get eaten/ordered again."

"This was our second visit, and we absolutely loved it! The food was great, the ambiance was pleasant, and the staff was very friendly. We arrived about 15 minutes early for our reservation, and they welcomed us without any hassle. I'm seriously considering returning for the steak and wine deal!"

"The service sadly let the delicious food down, we had been sat at our table for minutes before we ordered our first drink and then it was hour minutes before we ordered food! A real shame, lovely setting and when we finally got to eat the food was excellent. Those times just aren’t acceptable though"

"I was there with family in October after graduation. My aunt was eating her food, when she got startled and stated there was glass in her mouth. I thought she was overreacting and didn't actually know what it was until she spat it out and there was the glass! We called the waiter over he got the manager who then stated there is no glass in the kitchen so it must have been from the salt shakers it happens sometimes....first of all no one used the salt shakers and if they know it breaks off in food why are they still using them?And the glass was not sitting on top of her food or she would have seen it. It was mixed in, so the fact that he didn't actually apologize right away but was claiming it was our fault was disgusting. Based on that experience I would give 0 stars if I could."

"Visited Platform One today for lunch. We ordered homemade cheese pie and scampi and after a very long wait our meals eventually arrived. The cheese pie pastry was disgusting, nothing like the shortcrust pastry I expected. Half of it was like concrete. I sent it back; the replacement was not much better. I ate only the cheese. On paying the bill we were asked was ‘everything ok’, I replied ‘no’. The bill was for full payment and I did mention ‘were they not going to knock a bit off?’ … no such luck. I should have paid what I thought the meal was worth! The staff were very pleasant. A very disappointing first time visit to Platform One as newcomers to Romiley."

"We have been eating here on a regular basis for a while now. We have taken friends as well as just going as a couple. It is positioned above the Jolly sailor pub so beware there are stairs to climb. There are seats as you enter along with a bar and a room at the back as well. Paula has a wonderful display of photographs from Italy on display to give it a more authentic feel.We have always been warmly welcomed by the staff and you definitely should book to avoid disappointment, they do have a lot of regulars.We have also visited on special occasions such as Halloween, Valentine's Day and new Year's Eve. On these occasions there are always additions to the usual menu or in the case of NYE a set menu which had to be pre ordered.There are always home made bread buns awaiting you followed by another treat on the house. The menu is varied and there is always a specials blackboard. The starter selection is varied but if you plan a dessert go hungry as the starters are definitely not mean portions.We have tried pretty much all the menu between us and whether your taste is pizza, pasta, meat or fish you will not be disappointed. A dish of either veg of gorgeous chunky chips comes with your main from the meat and fish and a side of salad is enough for two should you opt for that.The desserts are very reasonably priced and often have a seasonal special on them. Coffees are a good price and the wine selection is varied and again a decent price. There are a few typically Italian cocktails on offer too.At the end of the meal you are offered a digestif to set you on your way. We have been in a large group for an outing and they cope steadily with delivery of the meals to all without a long gap.The real draw is the friendly welcome and the kindness the staff display along with the obvious hard work to please the customers.Alex has a dry wit and is delighted if you have a good evening.There is a happy hour from 5 with 25% off menu prices.It is closed on a Sunday except for special occasions."

"Ate here Wednesday with friends for a university reunion. Food was very good and small but interesting wine list. Excellent service. Place is very small and in centre of town. You need to book and that really means ringing. We were asked to preorder food, but that not a problem. Most of the dishes were served on clay pots, on a plate with serviette. It made them quite difficult to eat. Several of us had cassoulet very generous but you had to take meat out of the pot to cut it up. That meant removing the serviettes from under a very hot dish tricky! Note there is no service charge on the bill but they ask for tips in cash. Vegetarian options: Don't think there were any it's french. Kid friendliness: Not really suitable"

"I shall list my issues with the experience because this deserves no more of my time nor my writing skills pizza fell apart (all toppings fell off) could’ve cut my pizza with my car and it would’ve been more geometric pizza was originally delivered somehow to the wrong house so it was over an hour late whoever was on the phone tonight (31/5/23 at around 6) clearly couldn’t hear or retain information as the pizza was at the wrong house wasn’t told about all of the ingredients on the veg pizza (possibly life endangering if you consider allergies) we were given a £6 bottle of wine as a peace offering even though the order was over £40 Appalled"

"Not impressed, waited two hours for delivery and food was cold when it arrived. We were told that the food was out for delivery twice before it arrived another 30minutes later. When we phoned to say we weren't happy with the service and wanted to be compensated we we're told that it wasn't possible due to policy. Pizza were average at best, but I couldn't be sure as they were stone cold when they arrived. We were offered 20% off our next order which is pointless as we won't be ordering from there again."

"Been coming to Naopli in Glossop from over in Stalybridge for about 5 or 6 years now (minor intermission for covid lockdown aside). We first happened across the place when having spent a day at the coast, we didn't fancy cooking and my wife did a search on the Internet and booked us in here. We've probably eaten here 20 times over the last 5 or 6 years and always thoroughly enjoy it. Napoli is a little hidden away downstairs off Norfolk Sq. There is always a good atmosphere and we always leave happy (and full). Food is excellent, usually a couple of additional starter main course choices on the specials board and an excellent range for carnivores, pescaterians and vegans alike. Most recent visit was for an Xmas eve meal with family, and as ever, the steak, lobster ravioli, chicken risotto were excellent as were the starters and desserts (the home made Tiramisu is a particular favourite) Good job we parked downhill from the restaurant as walking uphill could have been a struggle after everything we ate. Value is very good indeed given the excellent quality. The restaurant is fairly compact but comfortable nonetheless. The kitchen is an open kitchen and the work rate of the kitchen team (which often includes the owner) is unbelievable. Staff are always friendly, helpful and efficient. One of our firm favourites to which we will continue to return."

"after a pretty challenging hike from rowardennan along hole lomond I had to stop somewhere to get to crianlarich. I found this pub for happiness. the personal gave me some hints on the bus service that could possibly bring me to my destination. since I had a free time until the bus arrived, I decided to eat something there while I waited for it. I have a burger, followed by a sticky fabric pudding. what the most about the place is its decoration the easy quirky / awkward mood of him. it was funny. and the very friendly staff is also remarkable!"
