Carluccio's Manchester

I was today with my friends here! I drinked only latte with biscuit. I liked it!

Kaitlyn provided quick service. The food from the kitchen was delicious. Drinks were served promptly. I was pleasantly surprised by the restaurant's existence. In my opinion, the meal was a great value. View menu

Having recently stepped off a 9h flight and on a layover at Picadilly station I went in search of breakfast. Carluccio's was the first place I found and a welcome suprise to have exactly what I was looking for (Eggs Royale). The staff were warm and friendly. I was invited in and provided a menu and offered a drink. The food was well prepared and was exactly what I needed.

From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was inviting, with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, suggesting the perfect dishes to try. I indulged in some of their signature Italian cuisine, and it was absolutely exquisite. The ingredients were fresh, and the flavors were authentic and rich. The pasta was cooked to perfection, and the dessert was a heavenly finish to the meal.

The food transported me to my chilhood in tuscany, a late afternoon at my nonnas eating all the best cuisine that the great nation of Italia has to offer. Ciao. View menu

Then the same member of staff tried to give me a food menu and made me feel quite unwelcome when I politely declined. I'd understand if it was busy.

My friends and I went to Carluccio's in Piccadilly for a meal before a concert. The restaurant was nearly empty and our drink order was taken quickly. However, things went downhill from there. Our starter order arrived promptly, but disappointingly, there were only two tiny pieces of focaccia for the four of us. When our main dishes finally arrived after a 40-minute wait, only three out of the four orders were correct. The sides were lukewarm and had to be sent back, but when they returned, they were still not warmed up properly. The service was lacking, as the waiter slammed the sugar on the table so hard it almost broke the bowl. To top it off, when we were leaving, a waiter chased after u...

Hadn 't been to a Carluccio restaurant for a number of years, and I can 't say that I will be going to one again soon. The place was almost empty, which made it all the more surprising that it took so long for someone to come and take our order. I normally have a couple of glasses of wine at lunch, but the prices for a small glass were ridiculous so I stuck to a glass of beer. Ordered a mixed basket of bread to share, along with a main of a so called crispy chicken burger, with fries. (Not particularly Italian, I know, but there we are). The bread arrived, along with a waitress who announced, cryptically, that The message didn 't arrive in the kitchen, so your mains are ready now shall I bri... View menu
