"We recently dined at Viva L'Italia and had a pleasant experience with both the food and service. However, we were informed that the restaurant had been renovated and our booking for the Italian steakhouse was transferred to their other location in Windsor. The food was average, and my carbonara order without cream was served with cream. The homemade tiramisu resembled more of a cake, was drowned in chocolate sauce, and lacked flavor. The staff were friendly, but overall, I left feeling disappointed. We were given a 50% discount for the incorrect carbonara, but it would have been better to receive the correct dish. While I had hoped to enjoy Viva L'Italia, I am unsure if I will return in the future."

"Is this part of the Al Forno chain or is it a franchise? If so it does not compare to the other Al Forno restaurants. Food was ok but presentation was poor. It was empty and the tables were dirty. Considering it was not busy service is minimal, the button to call works but this takes away from the experience there is no quality check and no up-selling took place. For that reason value for money is poor although not really expensive. A few people allowed of the street to sit and smoke not sure if anything was ordered this gives it a low end feel. Not as portrayed on your website."

"We were attended to in good time and shown to our table in the garden there were 2 of us and we were seated in the garden (which we asked for) but the table for 2 is right in the middle of a paved area with the other tables around the edge not very private. We ordered a bottle of wine it came in boiling hot wine cooler and the bottle of wine (white wine) was warm. When I pointed this out to the waitress she said it couldn't be helped as the wine coolers were kept on top of where the coffee machine was. I said I sympathised but that we didn't ask for a bottle of warm white wine. I asked if she would please bring some ice to put in the cooler which she did but is was still warm and never really got cold all the time we were there. The food was ok but not as good as the previous time we were there, it was served lukewarm."

"Our 20 yr old student son was visiting Ipswich as part of an upcoming placement. He had to stay in a hotel for two nights on his own and eat out for dinner as nothing available in the hotel. He went to ASK at around 6.30pm and asked for a table … he was told they ‘already had too many’ despite all the empty tables and him being on his own. Very offhand and rude and made him feel very uncomfortable. On phoning afterwards we were told they were short staffed and having a difficult day. Nice of them to take it out on a young man on his own. Shameful behaviour! The reality is he was one person, it was early doors, and all he wanted was a warm meal after a long day. He wouldn’t have been taking a table up all night and making demands on the staff. If you happen to find yourself in a similar situation save yourself the trouble and just go to Prezzo. Or just go to Prezzo in any event."

"7 of us for dinner, we had a reservation, but it didn't seem there would have been much of a wait on a Sunday evening. Prices are slightly higher than we expected, but well worth it!!The atmosphere was casual and relaxed, everyone in our party commented at one time or another during the evening how much we loved the music! Great playlist, but not too loud for conversation. The staff was incredibly friendly & helpful with the menu. We asked our server for appetizer recommendations and loved them all - the caprese was fantastic! We had several pizzas, the butternut squash pasta was popular as well as the other pasta dishes. Of note to American travelers - the men and women's restrooms share a common washroom completely separate facilities, but you come into a nice open area to wash your hands. There is also smoking allowed on the patio, the windows were all open because the weather was so beautiful but the smoke from outside was quite noticeable inside."

"On arriving at Ask on 30th December, the staff had no record of my online booking even though I followed up with a phone call ahead of the day to confirm a high chair was required. My friends and I found the staff unsympathetic to our predicament and made us feel like the error was our fault rather than OpenTable or Ask. Even an apology at the time would have softened our disappointment but instead the staff seemed rude and unfriendly. There was no space to accommodate us for lunch even though I had made a booking so we were forced to leave in the hope that we could find somewhere to eat. Thankfully Prezzo in Marlborough managed to find us a table and we were really impressed by the friendly and accommodating staff. A sharp contrast to our experience with the staff at Ask. We had travelled some distance to meet in Marlborough for a birthday lunch and sadly we left Ask frustrated at the lack of friendly reception at the restaurant. Due to this unacceptable experience, I will not be using Open Table again for any bookings and we will not be returning to Ask in Marlborough."

"This restaurant is a revelation. There is a separate vegan menu with a good range of choice. I had Spaghetti with Lentil Ragu, which was so, so good. The underlying tomato sauce base was rich and delicious and then to this had been added a generous quantity of brown lentils and other vegetables which had been cooked to perfection. I learned later that Theo Randall works with Ask to develop their dishes so this helps explain the outstanding quality of what I had just eaten. For dessert it was a Chocolate Torte with a scoop of Raspberry Sorbet. Again the quality was outstanding. I cannot praise this restaurant highly enough. It was a joy to eat there. If Happy Cow allowed it I would give it 5*."

"Firstly I would like to say that this restaurant has just been refurbished, and it didn’t feel like an Italian restaurant, more like a cafe at the beach somewhere! It felt very sparse and most Italian restaurants I e been to have proper tablecloths on the table but these were plastic and I noticed one table it was tapped up underneath, in my opinion it needs to be made more warmly and have more of a family feel. The food was really nice,although I would advise anyone to make sure they double check their order as I chose chicken in a sauce really nice which came with vegetables but I also asked for a separate portion of potatoes, when it arrived I just had chicken with a few cut up potatoes and a very very small garnish of salad ! I mentioned this to the waitress who had taken our order and she said I know but the chef had given you extra salad !! Sorry but salad is not vegetables , it clearly said on the menu it came with vegetables. Having said about the above issue, the meals we all had were nice and the staff gave us a very warm welcome and because of the blip they said we could have a free pudding…..not sure if we all did or it was just mine but I never see the bill as we were treated to this. To finish the evening off we were given a lovely limoncello shot. We would definitely go back. Thankyou for a lovely evening in your restaurant"

"I did not try to ask for a few years because on my last visit they did not have vegan options and their ingredients tabular calculation was not particularly accurate. but then I saw someone on facebook mention that not only vegan options, but a completely separate vegan menu! and it is true! I visited today and had a delicious vegan starter, vegan main and vegan desert! and I also did not stay with an option fixed, there were three I could choose from and on the back of the vegan menu was a vegan beverage menu! well made question! I will be back regularly and I will bring friends."

"we visited a lunchtime and eating and service were excellent. just a week later I can only forgive three stars, and that feels generous. this time, however, do not fully customer. I have always sympathy for waiting for employees in any restaurant, as if they shame that they have been reworked and under paid. but why should the main ingredient be so variable in each operation? this time it was dirty: slow and freaked out. Nobody smiled. the tables have set and tied up while we waited for the dessert menu to catch the eye of the waitress without success. after what seemed like an old one we gave up, paid for the net and went elsewhere. the food was ok tho’ pasta and spargel boiled, not only al dente. no chance to ask it as no one was interested. other court ok, but not as good as previous week. but in my experience it is the service that does or breaks. this time it was broken."

"Visited lunch time without a booking and the rest was extremely busy. The manager was really helpful and accommodating and found me and my two young sons a table quickly. The food came out fast and hot and was really fresh and tasty. The waitress really engaged with us and made us feel comfortable. The manager came over to check on us a few times and made sure the children were happy. It was lovely to see all the staff happy at work and the place was buzzing with a great atmosphere of people enjoying their lunch. This branch is obviously run very well and we will definitely be returning to visit again soon"

"My initial reaction was how very small and narrow the space was, not much room for too many people. However, if you look beyond this, you will find excellent food, very good service and very good value. If you're a steak lover the 1kg t-bone is excellent and very tasty. Would recommend but I suggest booking in advance to avoid disappointment as there's not a large amount of seating available."

"3 of us came at approx 8pm on a friday night, and the restaurant was pretty quiet. The first thing we noticed was how cold it was, the air con was turned up to max which is a bit excessive on a coolish evening. Drinks like most restaurants are fairly pricey, we thought £4.10 for a glass of wine was a bit ridiculous so all had soft drinks instead. The risotto verde was tasty enough but was a small portion for the price. The seafood linguini was basically tomato sauce on pasta with a few shrunken shell fish on top, (in the shells . Not great value for money really but tasted ok. Cant comment on the shell fish as there wasnt enough of it to comment on, all shell and no fish ; The pizza my friend ordered was slightly overcooked so a bit dry, we all wanted to eat together so she didnt ask for a new one as it would have meant her eating after us. We were brought drinks then left 20 minutes before being asked our food order, we tried to get the attention of the service staff a few times but no one noticed. Same happened when waiting to ask for the bill.. no one to ask for it. The staff seemed friendlhy enough but most definitely not Italian haha (which of course isnt a must to work there but it seems that these type of restaurants make the effort to hire italian staff in city centre branches like liverpool, manchester and london but less so in other places. We didnt particualrily enjoy our visit there, it wasnt relaxing or feel warm and inviting. Quite basic interior and tables. We probably wont go again unfortunately."

"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."

"I have just about visited every casual dining Italian food chain present in London this outlet near Warren Str station boasts spacious basement area, very polite and well trained waitressing staff and a free shot of house lemonade on arrival. We ordered crispy calamari for starters, with garlic mayo, very tasty, Italian olives always a good choice. For mains we took a mixed meat pizza and chicken/mushroom, took a while to prepare. When they arrived they were oval shaped, on a thick-ish crust. Chicken pizza was very bland, could do with some chili oil on the table. Otherwise, very respectable place and good value, and again very nice service!"

"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."

"As soon as I walked in, we were served two shot glasses of lemonade. The staff were very friendly and we were served by 3 people throughout our visit. I ordered the carbonara and it was served extremely quickly to the optimal temperature. My friend order the sausage pasta and the pasta came al dente its like marmite; either you love it or you hate it. Personally I like it but my friend doesn't so perhaps going forward, they could ask customers how they would like their pasta. Other than that, everything was incredible. In the mens toilet was 1 cubical with tissue stocked and toilet clean. Two urinals, three sinks all working with comfotably warm water, two soap dispensers fully stocked and two hand driers. Everything was lovely. I would highly recommend this place to people. I had the warm brownie and cherries clotted ice cream for pud. Option to order by QR code or by staff. I am very impressed as the restaurant met all my expectations. Highly recommend."

"Although the food at this restaurant was good, the service was extremely slow and disorganized. The starters arrived at different times, with one dish missing a part. We waited a long time for our mains and even after finishing our meal, it took 20-30 minutes for the dessert menu to be brought to us. When we finally asked for the bill and for our leftovers to be packed up, there was a delay in providing boxes. The staff only asked about payment method after we had already put on our coats and stood up. Despite a good vegan menu, the lack of cleanliness in the toilets and the overall lack of customer service led us to determine that we will not be returning or recommending this restaurant to others. It seemed that the staff were not motivated and the empty restaurant may have been explained by our own negative experience."

"Prezzo (price) is a good name for this place. Sorry to say but nothing to do with Italian cuisine but prices from different planet. Crab and lobster ravioli unfrozen and bland. Gnocchi with grilled? sea bass and peas?? I got confused if this is English pub or Italian restaurant. No herbs, no taste, so specific for Italian cuisine, was really hungry and haven't finished this. Gnocchi drowned in fat, colour grey. Gross, lack of colours (tomato, peppers, carrots etc. missing), prices shocking high, quality of food shocking low, portions small comparing to other Italian restaurants. I've asked if there's Italian chief and got an answer that is racist to have Italian chief in Italian restaurant????? Absolutely ridiculous. Nice service, disgusting food, never again. For 2 juices (150ml each), one espresso, antipasti (3 small slices of garlic bread no garlic taste or smell, 2 slices of second hand ham and something pretending prosciutto £8.95, to be honest dried tomatoes delicious, olives acceptable), portion of gnocchi with sea bass and peas?? over £19, maybe 10 unfrozen ravioli with no taste over £17, bill over £50 paid and I went to McDonald's to eat something. Avoid and find something with Italian chief to taste Italian cuisine."
