Bella Italia - Salford Quays

We had a great experience all round at this restaurant on Saturday 29 September! We were slightly late due to traffic, but I rang to warn of the delay and there was no problem at all. We had never been to Salford or this restaurant therefore, but it has a lovely layout and ambience. Our waiter was attentive and very friendly. The food was delicious! One of the 5 of us is allergic to lots of food stuffs, but it was sorted by the Manager in no time. We had a fabulous time - especially with the free bubbles with the 2 course offer!

Very medeoca initial service even though we had pre booked a table. Also, not a particularly good spegetti bollognase.

Food was excellent, friendly staff; warm environment and comfortable temperature with in the restaurant.

Unfortunately not a good experience of my first experience at a Bella Italia. 7 of us arrived at 12 noon for a show at 2pm (prebooked). At this time the place was almost empty but after waiting 15 minutes I had to ask twice for someone to take our order. The main meal then had to be chased 3 times as by 1.20pm we still had not had our food. The staff we spoke to were rather rude & certainly unhelpful. To be fair the manageress apologised and gave us a discount on the food, which was appreciated. The food (in my opinion) was not good either. I had the gnocchi dish which had half an inch of butter/oil/fat at the bottom of the dish which wasn't pleasant.

Excellent service at Bella Italia Salford Quays. Couldn’t have been more helpful and polite. We were in a group of 8 and we weren’t kept waiting, food and drinks served promptly. Even when my grandson knocked over a full glass of pop it wasn’t a problem and was cleaned up and replaced straight away. I would highly recommend this restaurant for excellent service!

I had the Daivola calzone pizza and all that was in it was onion & chilli . I counted 3 pieces of pepperoni & 4 slices (small) chicken. considering this was £13 it was very poor. we ordered chips and they came out as fries in the smallest bowl ever. they where £4 & we had to remind them so we got them as we finished eating out mains. will never go again. staff never really acknowledged our issues.

Excellent food and service great atmosphere. The only down side was that some of the chairs were old tired and ripped.

Wide range of choice - our dishes were very flavoursome, accompanied by good wine. Our waitress helped us to get to the theatre in time.
An enjoyabke experience.

Friendly staff , quick service , lovely, tasty food. Great gluten free menu . We did unfortunately get evacuated at one point ( the entire shopping centre was evacuted ) but we went back in after 10 mins & the staff were brilliant. Will definitely return.

My friend and I had the vegan burger and a drink (a quick meal before the theatre) and it was delicious. Very helpful staff. Loved the food. Will come again, especially for the excellent vegan choices.
