We've been there twice and every time the food was great. In this visit, they forgot about our second round of drinks but they reacted fast once we mentioned. The food is really tasty and fresh and cooked to perfection. I had the seafood platter and the liver with onion. Good size portions and good
Pleasant Italian restaurant with generous portions & great variety.
- Pollo e Pane was excellent; tasty spaghetti, & really well fried chicken.
- Antipasto Rustico had plenty to share for 2+ people.
- Deep fried gnocchi was a must try.
Went for a Sunday lunch and couldn’t fault food or service.
Great vegan options, lots of pizza options plus also vegan pasta and salad options.
I enjoyed the vegan pizza pepers olives and vegan mozzarella.
You can swap diary cheese for vegan cheese with all the pizza options.
Always a warm atmosphere, welcoming to large groups. They take reservations.

A great shame to recently learn this marvelous place has lost its lease. What were the landlords thinking!!
Excellent top-notch food with wonderful service at prices that are not than fair for the quality and quantity delivered. I can't make a favourite as the pasta and pizza choices are all ones I

Original review is below
I'm a regular at Al Fresco (Whetstone , so I though I should write a review of the restaurant that I visit more than any other, (well, it's less than 100 yards from my fl
The service and the food was lovely. My second visit there. If you eat fish I'd recommend the tagliatelle asparagi. It's delicious and is my go to order now! Tried my partners mushroom risotto which was also very good. Thank you Nadia and Henry for the friendly service 😊
Very generous portion of Tagliatelle Asparagi (asparagus & salmon). A good solid meal. The decor aims at rustic & familiar and achieves. It's a small treat to be offered the separate desert menu for temptation even when having lunch.
Lovely Italian restaurant. The food is excellent and the service is friendly and welcoming. Prices are very reasonable too: £8-£20 mains, the starters we ordered were around £6. Beer choice is Moretti or Peroni. Moretti is £3.50. Highly recommended!
The food is really good and price appropriate. Restaurant is extremely large and popular. Lots of big groups celebrating birthdays. Ridiculously noisy if that's OK with you-you'll love it. Personally, I want to be able to listen comfortably to my friends and be somewhere smaller and less frant
Good Italian restaurant. Went for a friend's 70th birthday.
A wonderful family friendly Italian - the staff are unbelievably friendly, kind and accommodating. They make sure you have everything you need and more! The food is always delicious, good sized portions and fresh. Cannot fault it, and brilliant value. Thank you for always being great!
We had a very enjoyable family get-together at Al Fresco. All the meals were great, the staff were supportive and friendly.
Was here on Sunday for lunch with some friends and I really appreciate the service and the food, Nichols who was looking after us was great with a lovely smile and very polite, she handle everything with great professional manner.
Well done Nichols and her team.
Will definitely be back
I have been going to Al Fresco for over 30 years and it never fails me. That deliciously welcoming smell hits you the minute you walk through the door. The food, the atmosphere, the service are all excellent. The rustic decor is also lovely.
Generous portions and good value for money.
Very enjoyable meal with friends on Saturday eve. As always, hearty portions at sensible money. No frills, just good honest Italian dishes that I could eat every day!
No wonder this long established restaurant is always busy....a sure sign they are doing something right to keep diners happy.
Absolutely incredible food from here. The food was delicious, service was great, atmosphere was amazing, Im from Manchester and came down here to see my Mrs, and she suggested this place, would love to try this place again :)
