"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."

"Our visit didn’t start out so well as we struggled to find the entrance! Some better signage would be good, especially as the doors aren’t marked and look more like a goods entrance! We were seated right opposite one set of doors and since they were automated we were blasted with cold air for a while each time someone came in or left. We thought it wasn’t worth asking to move since it was busy and now where better to put us, and that things would settle once the lunch covers were all in, but then people started cutting through to use the restaurant as a short cut to get into the hotel! This just spoiled the ambience for us as we were cold and ended up watching the door. The staff were however lovely and the food and drinks great. I realised afterwards that my main was listed on the menu (in its title) as having walnuts with it, but I didn’t get any with my dish so that was a shame (I’d have mentioned if I’d realised at the time). The Jerusalem artichoke soup, ricotta and truffle ravioli, and olive oil martini were our highlights, and we’d recommend."

"We waited for an hour for our food, but it never came. The restaurant was not very busy, yet we were seated at a small table. When another diner arrived, she was seated right next to us, even though there were five other empty tables in the same area. The tables were already close together, but they moved her table even closer to make room for the empty tables. It was so cramped that I couldn't even get out of my seat. It was such a bad experience that we ended up canceling our food and leaving."

"The staff were excellent, efficient and polite. Me being me had an awkward order mixing up the menu choices and the Manager came to our table and then ensured my request was carried through which it was. So I was impressed by the personal touch from the management. The food and service were great. I would have had another fried chicken if I had room for it. Definitely the best-fried chicken I had ever had.. everyone else in my party commented on the food is excellent."

"To celebrate my sister in law's graduation we booked here. We were so lucky with the weather as the sun was shining and it was warm enough to be sat outside for food. They had lots of GF items marked on their food menu. I had the Duck salad which tasted lovely, the duck was nice and crispy and was great for a light lunch. I did want some chips as they were marked as GF but unfortunately they were cooked in the same fryer with other glutenous foods which was a shame."

"Lovely meal with the family last week at Regazzi. We visited after hearing from a friend the new owner is Mido. We highly recommend the mozzarella sticks, lamb chops starter, pollo funghi crema and the pollo milanese. Food was fresh and delicious! It was also nice to see the chefs interested in how much we enjoyed the food. The montepulciano d’abruzzo red wine went down a treat too! Great customer service in a friendly relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend a visit!!"

"We had an absolutely magical evening. It was my friend's birthday and Veronica and Rhiannon took care of us so well! Veronica was excellent with her suggestions and recommendations, not to mention her humor and hospitality as a whole! We smiled and laughed all the time. Rhiannon was so beautiful and friendly to us, so patient with all the small inquiries and made the night so smooth for us. She even helped us make some amazing pictures to perpetuate the experience. The food was brilliant; absolutely delicious, came in good time, and very well prepared. Compliments to the bosses! Special word for the Lychee Sorbet and Yuzu ice, for dying. Also the beautiful birthday desert they gave us was fantastic! Overall a brilliant experience 20/10"

"this cozy restaurant offers them a lot of fantastically arranged and a five-star service. I was there for the first time yesterday and really enjoyed it! the food is very tasty and very presented and I can say that the ingredients are very fresh. fabio and the other staff are professional and very friendly and provide a first-class service. it is worth trying their fried corgettes as well as the gamberoni and of course their pizza, which is only divine! I will definitely go back and try some new antipasti and pasta dishes. the menu has many fabulous options too difficult to choose! highly recommended!"

"We were greeted by the owner Ken, he asked us if we were ok, we explained that we wanted to be seated for drinks. He sat us down, the waitress came we ordered and she said you must get something to eat, we just ate somewhere else and wanted to sit for drinks, so we ordered two starters with our drinks. To my surprise after we ordered Ken walked back and started to tell us that we shouldn’t have sat there if we’re just having drinks and to leave straight after the drinks. The whole vibe changed, I didn’t even want to have my drink. I paid £50 for two starters and two drinks and Ken’s horrible service. I’ve never been treated like that especially by an owner of a restaurant. Why wasn’t this mentioned before we ordered, why after? How can you tell someone have your drink and leave? When I said you are making me uncomfortable he replied, good leave. I just looked at my friend in disappointment as I recommended this restaurant to her. The reason your restaurant isn’t making enough is because of your service not customers coming for drinks. The embarrassment of him having a go in-front of the other customers wasn’t nice and the sad thing is he treats his waiters and waitresses with no respect as well as his customers."

"This restaurant is now called Dolce Italia. We had a table for 5 and were really impressed with both the food and service we received. The fish soup had a tasty bisque quality with fresh sea bass and fresh warm bread. The mushroom crostini looked good and tasted better. Caprese salad was fresh looking and yummy. Mains were also excellent. Belly of pork melted in the mouth, chicken milanese was moist with generous spaghetti in tomato sauce, with fresh tomatoes running through it. seafood linguine had lots of sea food, all perfectly cooked. Desserts were also good. I had the panna cotta, lovely wobble and beautiful taste. Also great value for money, with wine sensibly priced and affordable. Would wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant. We will definitely be returning."

"This was my third time going to Passo but first time dining inside the restaurant and the vibe/atmosphere was friendly and relaxing, and nicely decorated. I originally had the booking for the week before but I came down with the flu and the staff were incredibly understanding on the day and moved my booking for the week after. The service was great and quick we got a starter to share between the 4 of us so we could try the dish, so the server added an extra piece on the dish so we could all have one. The dish did not disappoint definitely order the Mac Cheese balls! The food is reasonably priced for where the restaurant is situated (just outside Old Street station), and good portion sizes! I love a hearty and filling pasta dish and it did not disappoint 3 of us went for the seafood linguine (so flavoursome). In the Summer, I went here for a bottomless brunch in the terrace and it was a fun/lively atmosphere with bottomless negroni and pasta! Great spot for date nights or dinner with friends/family!"

"The food was lovely, but there were several items missing from their small menu, one of our party had to wait an extra 10 mins for their pizza after we had been served to which we were told our sides would be removed from the bill and they were not and we were told we needed to order our desserts at 9pm (before we were finished our mains) because the Chef needed to catch a bus! To top it off we were bothered for 45 mins by a drunk American guy who pulled up a chair for the last 30 mins to which the waitress did not do much about and allowed it to continue. I've heard similar stories of kitchen closing early and items unaivalable which is a real shame as the food is generally good."
"Booked Esca on chance as it was near Glasgow Green and Barrowlands Ballroom. I was not disappointed, as we were shown quickly to our table and had prompt service. We were both able to order easily from the choices on the pre-theatre menu and I was impressed by the vegetarian 'meatballs ' with spaghetti. The bill was very reasonable for the food and wine we enjoyed and I would return!"

"The restaurant is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the service is excellent. It would be wonderful if the lighting were a bit softer, perhaps with candles on each table for a cozier atmosphere."

"First time with the Italian cuisine so we had no idea with the menu. Lovely and kind stuff! Stuff explained menu well. I asked for halal options and only chicken and seafood are their halal options. I asked for recommendation and she guided us well. Even explained what is red sauce, white sauce… Even basics~ She was kind and helpful. She suggested her favourite starters as marinated olives, focaccia olive oil, bread. Delicious! I can even go there just for their olives! Our glasses were never emptied because she always poured our water gently~ This was lovely. I had chicken milanese and my sis had linguine vongole. Chicken was delicious but I REALLY had hard time with cutting. Wasn’t juicy enough and hard to cut. Not sure if those knives were enough to cut it but my arm got tired of trying to cut, seriously Pasta was 10/10 no doubts. I had %50 discount coupon from TheFork Festival but they forgot to apply it even though I reminded them very beginning of the night. But they fixed so quickly so no problem at all~ But it is important to being careful and attentive. Definitely visit one more time for their pastas! Restaurant aesthetics so authentic and full of italian culture"
