Italian dessert recipes in Manchester

“We popped in today, really welcoming staff, clean place, food was amazing, lots of people coming in for fresh made panini in their lunch break!! Pizza = amazing Lasagne =amazing, even the coffee and desserts don't disappoint (didn't get a picture of those, because we ate them too quickly)”

“My new favourite local takeaway, Franco's, never disappoints. From the pizza to the pasta dishes they are are always superb, great friendly staff and fast turn around on the orders. food is authentic with beautifully crips pizzas that arent over loaded.”

“I stumbled upon this little gem by accident because Tesco Extra next door had no cafe and I asked somebody where can I get a sit down meal. Thankfully they told me about the indoor market and that there were 2 places I could get a meal. One was Heaven Italian Cafe, well 5 stars, the staff are lovely, the beef pasta was lovely I will definitely be back. Needs more advertising tho cos its a shame for people who dont know its there, they are missing out.”

“The food and service were fantastic. Such a friendly feel. The parmigiana was so tasty, would highly recommend and the amaretto mulled wine was so great and felt so christmasy. Excited to try the panettone I bought.”

“Never been here before but its reputation precedes it and we weren't disappointed. The menu was extensive with plenty of mouth watering dishes to enjoy. The waiters were friendly and efficient. Although the place was packed, we didn't feel pressured to finish up. When the bill arrived we couldn't believe how reasonable it was - and that just topped off the evening nicely. A++”

The menu was full of tasty ingredients from start to finish and we can’t wait to try more dishes! Laurie is obviously a talented chef and the serving team were lovely too.

“What a great find! We had to collect as we live to far away. All meals freshly cooked in front of you. Great service and very easy to order on line.”

“Superb food, great dining experience and friendly staff. Never had a bad experience. All the staff are very welcoming and remember faces which is always a nice touch. Two of my favourite menu items (Rabbit starter and Beef Short Rib Starter) have been removed, but you are still inundated with choice. Servings are also great for an Italian. When you are inside, you actually forget that you are in Oldham. Highly recommended.”

“Greeted at the door. Took my son for a post football treat. Not that normal sort of place as is aimed at discerning diners/lunch seekers, we were lad and dad brunch seekers! The lady and gent that served us were really attentive and alert. Lovely with my 8 year old too. Divided things on menu to accommodate us and just made us feel like we could stay there all day it was that relaxed. Food was of a high standard and arrived still warm and fresh from the oven. Scotch bonnet chilli sauce was especially good which we got with our pizza. The sorbets are well above average too. All in all a great place, loved it! We were served by Elle and Isaac. Who enhanced an already good experience.”

“Lovely Italian place around Arndale. Food was good, particularly enjoyed the calamari antipasti. The waiters are friendly and happy to make suggestions when asked.”

“Live around the corner from this pizza takeaway. It's not been open long so tonight we had the pizza takeaway and a garlic bread. First off ,real home baked pizza dough, second was the box was bone dry,no dripping grease under the pizza which was absolutely beut. The choice of garlic bread and pizza toppings are amazing. All in all.10/10 from me. New owners should be proud.”
