Had a lovely meal and night for son's birthday last night, Hadn't been before but will certainly be back, Well done to the staff.Kid-friendliness: Kids were welcomed with a colour book and crayons, With a smile and a lot of laughter.

It was a Thursday night. Temperature was inching towards zero all afternoon. Wind chill factor high, yet cosy Gianninos was packed. Rammed in fact, and the atmosphere was terrific. It was our first visit and we were impressed with the service and the food. We were with two regulars who have not had a bad meal there. A good recommendation. And the verdict? Good meal, great surroundings and really attentive, pleasant and efficient staff. It's a extensive menu with 13 starters, you could, of course, have nibbles and there were six of them, and there were 15 pasta alternatives, 12 pizza (12in) alternatives plus four grill picks, plus sauces, three veal alternatives plus catch of the day fish and three other offers and three chicken choices.That's more than enough for even the most discerning and picky diner. Cozze Marinara, freshly cooked mussels steamed in white wine, garlic, tomato sauce, served with a slice of home made Italian bread was irresistible. It lived up to expectations and we had to use the spoon provided to scoop up the juice. Prociutto Melone was another pick and was well received and then on to mains. Two rump steaks - no sauce - were appreciated and so was the pollo surf and turf, chicken with king prawns with pancetta, garlic, wine and chilli served with potatoes and veg. The house penne also went down well. No room for desert for three but one could not resist the apple pie and, on this occasion, custard. Enjoyable? Yes, and we were one of the last to leave.

Popped in for lunch with my daughter Olivia , we both had pizza, was delicious ,great service and when the bill came It was surprisingly good value for money.My wife had taken my other daughter to MC Donalds and paid more for their two meals than we did ? Just proves eating quality food in a restaurant instead of your normal fast food chain junk is not as expensive as you think. We would recommend this restaurant.

I had a warm welcome here after a long absence . I ate the mussels as a starter and the most tender veal as a main. The sweet practically slid over to me to ensure I didn't rush off without it.

Love this place. Good food, staff very attentive. Speaking to Milena was great as she told us about where she comes from in Italy. Not far from where my mother is from.
Food very enjoyable and a lovely friendly atmosphere. Our Taxis let us down so the owner gave us a lift back to the Hotel. Outstanding service. Will be back next year

Pizzas are good, but last time I got a parking ticket for overstaying a 2 hour limit in the car park nearby. At night! This time we had to ask the waiter to bring our change after paying. Hmmm.....Parking: Small "shopping centre" next door has ANPR and a strict 2 hour limit. Very small signage. It was empty when I drove out at 21.30 and I got a £60 fine. Maddening!
Always amazing ?
