"Booked a table via the Carluccio's website for the Cribbs Causeway restaurant, for 5.45pm. Arrived and ordered drinks to then be told around 6pm they were closing early as they had a chef shortage, so we rushed to order. Shared 2 starters, the meatballs and bruschetta. The meatballs were barely warm, so were sent back. The bruschetta was basically tasteless tomatoes on bread, not a hint or garlic and barely any basil. Thankfully the cost was removed from our bill. The mains were OK. However the Chicken Milanese is extremely overpriced for what was essentially breaded chicken (no hint of rosemary in the breadcrumbs), a smattering of rocket and gem lettuce, with 3 halves of baby tomatoes. I would not book another. With every increasing costs, I would rather spend money elsewhere and ensure I am getting the quality I am paying for."

Awful meal. I think they are having problems as they were turning people away. Coffee was bitter and to me undrinkable. My meal was tasteless and the chicken ultra processed full of water. Not what you normally expect. Wouldn’t go back.

The staff were excellent, friendly and attentive, the pasta dish was very tasty, we always visit Carluccio's at the Mall for these very reasons. Vegetarian options: Could do with a few more options.

Have not been to Carluccio’s for a few years, sadly they are not what they once were, the food is bland and poorly served. For a place that charge the amount they do and for the memory of Carluccio himself this should be far better quality in food and service. I would advise you avoid this branch, it’s not working for so many reasons. Service: Dine in

Whilst the service provided was friendly and polite, the meals provide very poor value for money. I had the Chicken Milanese which comprised a dry piece of chicken covered in breadcrumbs, two tomatoes and a bowl of lettuce with no dressing. I will not be returning and would suggest that others think very carefully before eating here when there is so much choice at The Mall.
