"There are lots of places near us that serve pizza but they don't serve it up as tasty as this. The service is simply first.class from the whole team. Frascati Pizzeria has only been around for a few months and it was on the list of places to visit that my wife has so we decided as we were walking past to pop in. I've given Frascati Pizzeria 5 stars because I really did love it. The staff (owners) are very polite and attentive which is sincere and genuine. The restaurant itself has a very rustic feel to it. Although small (only about 8 tables if I remember) you aren't crammed in and have an intimate feeling. The owners are planning to expand the restaurant to fit more in and I doubt that they will find it difficult to get bums on seats. The menu is small. I like that as there is nothing worse than looking at a menu with too much to choose from. What they do offer though is a good choice of pizza, pasta and chicken with desert and sides plus a selection of beverages to accompany your meal. Just as you enter the restaurant you'll see where your pizza is cooked fresh and on-site. I love pizza that is cooked this way and that will go some way to how they taste so good. There is also seating area where you can sit whilst waiting for a your table and have a drink. I'd also like to say thank you for the free desert they offered my wife to mark her birthday. A very generous offer that was gratefully received. We've been back and had 4 pick ups from them now and each time the Pizza has tasted simply beautiful. We are aiming to get back to sit in very very soon."

"Reception Arrived exactly on time for 6pm booking but waited 10 minutes to be seated Receptionist asked if we required drinks, which we did and informed her we were also ready to order our meal. she stated she was unable to take menu orders. Waited another 10 minutes before our order was taken for both starter and main course. It quickly became apparent that one waiter for 20 tables was going to cause delay problems. Whilst waiting for the starter we noticed that the restaurant was cold with a few free standing vertical electric fan heaters generating very little heat unless you were seated immediately adjacent to one which i was not and subsequently donned my outer coat to keep warm. Following the serving of our starter I reminded the waiter on two occasions that I was concerned at the delay in serving our main course as we were attend the local Theatre at 7.20pm. He assured me the meal was on its way, however by 7pm one hour after our arrival there was no sign of our main course. I informed both the waiter and their receptionist that we were not prepared to wait any longer I paid for the soft drinks and starter meal and left the restaurant. I was extremely disappointed with the quality of service provided and will certainly not be returning to Lucianos at Sunderland again. It is worthy of note that we were not the first customers to have a disappointing experience at Lucianos as endorsed on Trip Advisor!!"
