We were very disappointed with our experience. The menu did not mention that the lasagna or its sauce contained alcohol. We only found this out after ordering the dish.
As this was important to us, My wife could not eat the lasagna at all. Despite the fact that we did not consume the meal, the restaurant still charged us for it.
We believe that ingredients such as alcohol should be clearly stated on the menu, especially when they can affect a customer’s decision to order or consume a dish. It was very disappointing to be charged for food that we could not eat due to information that was not provided on the menu.
We hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and ensures that menus provide clear and accurate information about ingredients in the future.

Came to Ask Italian in the middle of the summer holidays on a Sunday evening, so understandably it was really busy, with only two people serving. Despite this, Annabelle and Mendi were absolutely amazing! They were so fast and efficient, looked like they had everything completely under control, and we had no wait at all. The food was absolutely amazing too!
Thank you both for a lovely evening, and well done — you were brilliant! ⭐️

Wir kamen zum Mittagessen, und wurden mit einem Willkommens Drink zum Tisch geführt. Für die Kinder gab es sofort Stifte zum Bemalen eines Bildes.
Die Sauberkeit, Freundlichkeit sowie die Hilfsbereitschaft des Services und Musiklautstärke waren optimal. Man konnte vom Platz aus zuschauen wie die Köche die mediterranen Gerichte zauberten. Es war alles frisch, köstlich, viel und schnell. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist super.
Liebes Team habt vielen Herzlichen Dank für das kulinarische Erlebnis!

Came here for my birthday last Thursday and could couldn’t fault it at all!
Despite almost every table being full when I arrived, we were seated very quick with a clean fresh table.
We had 2 servers throughout the night who were both absolutely fantastic and super friendly.
The food was absolutely phenomenal, I recommend the Stromboli Pizza with hot honey 😍
My dad brought a cake in which was brought out nicely, the staff even got a slice each.
Overall fantastic night thanks to Ask Italian

Craig was a fantastic server! He was so attentive, friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. He was also brilliant with my 4 year old child, which really made us feel comfortable and made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
Nothing was too much trouble, and Craig went above and beyond to make sure we were well looked after. He is a real credit to ASK Bournemouth and an excellent member of the team. Thank you, Craig, for making our visit such a lovely one! 😊
