Restaurant Italian restaurant

👍 Local and authentic. I was quite impressed with the quality of dishes. Portion sizes were quite generous. On the pricier side but taking your own drinks compensates. It was crowded when we went of a Friday, can get quite loud as the ceilings are low and can feel bit cramped. Definitely worth trying,...

    Local and authentic. I was quite impressed with the quality of dishes. Portion sizes were quite generous. On the pricier side but taking your own drinks compensates. It was crowded when we went of a Friday, can get quite loud as the ceilings are low and can feel bit cramped. Definitely worth trying, will go back again. I would suggest, skip starters and go for main course. Avoid ordering extra sides, as no need.

    Service is great, nice atmosphere. However I think it is a bit overpriced and some food was lacking a bit of quality/presentation. My wife had a pan seared chicken that was quite dry/rubbery and didn't really have any sear on it unfortunately. We didn't complain as they were quite busy and it tasted okay enough. Mine was a beef steak which was cooked perfectly medium rare and tasted fine. What was odd is that both our dishes had the same sauce on it...even though they have different things in the menu 🤔 I know it's not fine dining but just seems like they put the same sauce on everything Only other thing was that the Coke/sprite was completely flat although we were told they were from a bottle apparently... Desert was very nice though definitely worth it. Based on it costing £50 for two people (mains and desert only) I think I expect a bit more attention to detail on the mains but would come back again!

    Fantastic Italian restaurant. The chefs are highly experienced and worked at big established restaurants prior to this. Our steaks were perfectly cooked and melted in the mouth. The steak sauces were rich and creamy. Desserts are made from scratch and finished our meal off perfectly. The food is also Halal. Service was attentive and friendly. They even kindly offered us a selection of sample desserts to try beforehand.

    Been here second time now. First time ordered the mixed seafood and this time, the 28 days aged beef with balsamic vinegar. Also the scallops as starter. I think it's probably my top 3 restaurants for best steak and seafood and it's priced accordingly. Wife got a creamy pasta prawn dish (really nice), kids got a tomato based chicken pasta ( also really nice). I am terrble with names but I do like Italian food! I will be going here for my regular steak cravings and look forward to trying the whole menu. Staff are friendly and attentive. Can't fault. Thank you

    It was our first time at alfresco Fusion. We attended a birthday party for a close family friend and the moment we set foot into the restaurant we greeted very nicely and sat down at our table and then soon as all the guests arrived we ordered our food. The waiter was absolutely fantastic. I'm sorry I didn't get your name. The food was ordered and it wasn't long before our food was in front of us. Piping hot. I had the steak and it was cooked to perfection ,medium rare. My son also ordered the steak again medium rare cooked perfection. We ordered a couple of pizzas, some starters and milkshakes for the kids. Absolutely loved it. The portion sizes are very generous I will definitely return to alfresco fusion and also spread the word that it's such a brilliant restaurant. I'm glad my friend recommended this place to me because it's come to be one of my top restaurants

    The food was really good. Service was okay, but would have liked a bit more of a personal touch. No-one checked with us throughout the meal if all was good or not. Had to request cheese for soup as wasn't automatically offered it. Many couples and small group dining. More of a cafe atmosphere. Setting is very nice but not romantic. We'll priced for what you get. Take your own alcohol.

    Absolutely brilliant! Great food, great service and great staff! Food is fresh and portions are big. No alcohol served here but you can bring your own (there is a Tesco’s next door). The place can get busy as it is so popular however this really adds to the atmosphere in my opinion. Will definitely be going again.

    Very nice food. Excellent prices and good portions. It can get busy so probably best to book. They don't serve alcohol but you can buy from the tesco next door and drink it inside with your meal.

    Amazing Place. Nice Italian restaurant. Halal food too. Good choice for kids menu. And it seemed very reasonably priced especially for what we ordered. Outdoor seating option was available too. All in all 5 stars.

    Recently visited your cafe with friends and were very satisfied! The atmosphere was cozy and the music was pleasant. The menu was varied and delicious, especially we liked your signature cocktails. The waiters were attentive and friendly, helped us with the choice of dishes. We will definitely come back again!

    First time visit..very impressed with the staff and service ...I started off with muscle in creamy garlic sauce..my partner she had the Fungi starter..main course I had the seafood spaghetti..muscles, clams,prawns absolutely gorgeous. Partner had the salmon and prawn Penne... Best thing ..pay cash and get a discount..I saved over £5 ...only thing spoilt it was large mixed group near entrance who were rather loud ...we could hardly hear ourselves speak....

    Myself and 9 family members visited last night. Wow... the food and service were amazing and I had the best fillet steak imaginable. Lovely table out the front adding to the experience.

    What a lovely hidden gem. Our friends took us here a year ago and we just keep going back. The food is great. So much choice and reasonably priced. My favourite thing is the zucchini fries. I've tried making them at home but can never do them as good as you. Lovely touches like sprinkling your parmasen for you and cracking your black pepper what professional touches. See you soon.

    First time visiting this evening with our 2 children. Relaxed atmosphere which is always nice when children are included. Food was absolutely beautiful - better than any other Italian I’ve been too, and I’ve been to lots! Food portions were big and food tasted very fresh. Highly recommend this restaurant.

  • 5/5 Hazra S. 2 years ago on Google
    I was able to book a last minute table for the evening. We went in and the restaurant has a very cute and authentic Italian feel to it. We got to choose between a choice of tables which was lovely too. Ordering, service and food were all fab, friendly staff. The tagliatelle pasta is the best pasta I have ever had, I will definitely be visiting again! A good portion of food for the price you’re paying! Highly highly recommend

    Great food. Loved it. Especially with the 50 percent EOTHO scheme, it was well worth it.

    Good quality food, big portions. We ordered a kids chicken goujon meal, a pizza and a pasta dish. Food is halal. We also tried the pina colada mocktail which was quite refreshing. Outdoor and indoor seating option available.

Good portions, fair price, good service.
