First visit to the restaurant and was very impressed. It was a last minute decision to eat out and being in the area thought we would try A Mano's, called mid week in the evening, lovely interior, with a very nice bar area, an open kitchen with pizza oven, the restaurant has a modern and crisp feel to the place, which we liked. Service was fantastic, lovely young girl who looked after us on our visit and I think it may have been the manager who checked on us later in the evening, again really friendly and nice to chat to. Two of us on the visit, we both had starters which were very nice, for main my wife went for a pasta from the vegetarian menu, which had a good choice, myself I tend to test a restaurant on the first visit with a steak, to see how if it turns out the way I like and whether it's good quality, it was excellent quality and cooked perfectly. I've been to so called steak specialist restaurants and they haven't done as good as what I've had here, the portion size for the meals were good and the pricing good too, again I've paid a lot more for less. I will definitely return and I look forward to trying other things off the menu, now you've passed my steak test with flying colours. Thanks all at A Mano, I know it's a team effort not just the floor staff who we speak to.

I'm not sure what I was expecting when I came here for a meal with my friends and little boy, but it's certainly not what I got, everything was top quality, from the staff, the food, the atmosphere and the price, this place is by far the best restaurant not only in Blackburn but the surrounding area, I was so overly impressed and will definitely be visiting again as I know my friends go often.

Great place. Food is good and good value. There is a two courses offer for 13.95. Calamari was tasty and the American hot pizza was great. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The kids menu for £5 was good and my daughter's pizza was made with ears, which she loved!

Expected to hate it but it's brilliant. For a start it's an Italian place with a colour scheme that isn't based on the italian flag. The service was brilliant from the start - the waitress offered to take our coats and hang them up, informing us where they would be. All the staff were very helpful and polite and gave every sign of really caring that the whole experience of dining here should be a pleasure. It was. Oh, and the food is great too 😀

Lovely fine dining place at cathedral square. Good selection. Attentive service. Great taste. They also generally have offers going on which make it more wallet friendly. The cocktails were also tastefully presented though we did have a problem with one which had a burning flame in the middle. Since it was a spirit flame, we could not make out if we had managed to extinguish it and almost burned ourselves. Other than that, we had a great time and would definitely go back again.

Beautiful decor, great food, right in the new Cathedral Quarter development in Blackburn, opposite the railway station. We had a lovely family meal on Sunday. The menu is varied. All dishes including Pizza and Pasta arrived piping hot at the same time. Service is prompt and friendly. We will definitely go back again. Watch out for the fantastic value lunch menu for £6.50 for a main course. We went as a family, however it looks like the restaurant is suitable for a night out with cocktails on offer.

Stayed over in Blackburn on a transit stop and this place looked nice from the outside. Thankfully they had space for 2 to dine. The food is lovely and service was good. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavour. You can see the Chefs hard at work in the open kitchen and they have a massive stone pizza oven which makes a really nice pizza! Definitely worth a visit if you like Italian food. One critical point...the mint ice cream was not amazing. Ice cream was chewy.

This is the best restaurant in Blackburn. I think people that complain are simply used to cheap takeaways. They offer very competitive menues with fantastic meal offers for lunch, and five star dinners. The service you get is unbeatable with someone always noticing when you need a refil or would like to pay/order more. I have never ever had to wait or look around to find someone.. and the inside is very clean and very nice. The bathrooms are beautiful and always spotless, I love the beautiful mirror in the ladies room. It is so elegant and classy. Staff is friendly and accommodating anytime you need to change something or substitute something even going out of their way to make things for me that aren’t on the menu because I ask for it. The kids meal is a good value and the portions are amazing. Honestly one pasta meal could be split between two people because you get quite a lot which is great. They do take away if you don’t want to wait to sit in too. They offer fantastic drinks which again they will alter to accommodate you, making non alcoholic versions for you..and the deserts are all very tasty. I recommend the profiteroles. I eat here very frequently and have never been disappointed. This is the kind of place you want to take your wife for dinner on a date, or your family to celebrate something like a christening or promotion. This is not McDonald’s, or a pub. This is a nice place to sit down and eat. The food quality is 5 star and worth every bit of the price, good food isn’t cheap and cheap food isn’t good, but this is still very affordable for what you get. The food is authentic Italian and some of the best I’ve ever had, the best in Blackburn. I am Italian myself and I have tried it all and nothing comes close to the taste of their food. Authentic and delicious, pasta cooked just right not gummy and over cooked like other places. Unbeatable. You will not be disappointed here.

A very enjoyable evening with good food and friendly staff. The atmosphere was also very good. The restaurant was clean and felt comfortable and there was a good range of choice. I went as part of a large group and the staff coped well.
