Prettiest ASK Italian I've ever been into, it's a really relaxing and spacey environment. Really appreciated the distance between the tables and the booths were solid enough not to feel as if you're sitting back-to-back with strangers. Massive thanks to Dora for helping us with our order when my friend wasn't enjoying the food. She is absolutely lovely and was a joy to talk to <3

Great Staff! Brilliant Food!
Me and my partner are frequent dinners at Ask Italian and for good reason. Staff are always warm, welcoming and give great service. They are a great team and seem to work great together. Ben was our server today and as usual, without fail he was friendly and efficient in his service. Thanks to the cooks in the kitchen also, never fail to give us a great meal.
Definitely recommend!

We booked and reserved a table, and online it asks if the booking is a special occasion in which ours was our wedding anniversary. We booked a table for 6:30 and was running late, tried to call but it’s AI and said I could not amend the booking. When we arrived straight away the waiter said table for 2? I said that I had a reservation and that was it. Got seated to our table. The restaurant itself was lovely. I was unsure of what food I wanted so I asked two different waiters what they would recommend. I had nothing back other than “the orzo risotto is nice” nothing about what’s popular or what a customers favourite was. Waited ages for food. The restaurant was so quiet only few tables were seated and we was in the restaurant for an hour before being served food. The Tuscan chicken risotto was lovely, not a lot of chicken but the spicy njuda pasta was bland and dry. No sauce and hardly any sausage, no spice. The food wasn’t hot it was just warm. The waiters had no personality, miserable faces. Considering it was our anniversary and made the restaurant aware on the booking, it felt like a normal meal and staff didn’t show any care or “special” feeling which was disappointing. Some restaurants do a fancy little dessert, or a drink, or even anniversary wishes would have been nice! Didn’t ask if we were happy with our food. The food came to £70 with drinks. Tried to use the women’s toilets only to be locked, had to go to a shared his/hers toilet where there is just 1 toilet. Really was disappointing for our wedding anniversary!
