Italian restaurant in Derby

“Went to the restaurant. Fantastic food and service. Would highly recommend and we will certainly be back! If I could six stars I would. I recommend the sea bass…”

“Food was amazing. Service was fantastic. Was very busy. Only thing I could fault is the lighting. It's not bright enough. Would definitely go again.”

“Fantastic food and atmosphere for our wedding anniversary dinner. Nothing was too much trouble, my wife is gluten free and they were able to do her a gluten free base pizza. Definitely order the olives as well! Loved the fact that this was a family run restaurant and you can really see the effort put in especially into the food. Thank you for an authentic Italian food experience!”

“Truely amazing restaurant, excellent, freshly prepared food, lovely host, menu changes each day. Even gave me and my friend a birthday desert with a candle and sang happy birthday. Highly recommend this restaurant”

“Superb authentic cuisine in a unique environment. A real treat for the palate and the eye. Jackie was a most welcoming host. A very enjoyable evening was had in this little gem of a restaurant.”

“A friend and I arrived without booking and the staff were very accommodating, we had to depart by 7.30, but arriving at 6.15 gave us plenty of time. I had king prawn and chorizo penne which was really good. Followed by cheese cake accompanied by a glass of fizz. Really good food and very good service.”

“The food was well prepared and presented. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a great evening, and thank you, Mara and team, for your hard work.”

“Always an exceptional experience — highly recommended.”

“Singh’s Punjabi Restaurant is a cosy place that perfectly catered to me and my friend’s meal. As a vegetarian, the options on the menu were extensive, which is something I rarely experience, and from what I ate, the food was delicious. I also really appreciated the vibe of the restaurant; customers knew the staff, and that resulted in a welcoming and social environment. The apple juice was also exquisite.”

“After having a bad meal year many years ago we decided to give it another shot. Thankfully this time we weren't disappointed. Really good food and nice staff. Will definitely be returning again soon!”

“Fantastic Christmas meal today! Sophie was seeing to our table, and what a fantastic job she did. She was pleasant, chatty, and made sure our meal was exactly what we wanted - couldn't fault the food or the service! Staff were rushed off their feet with it being the busy festive season, but they breezed through it effortlessly. Thanks everyone!”

“Great buffet experience with a wide variety of Chinese, Indian, and continental dishes along with live stations. Everything was fresh and tasty, and the options were well presented. The only thing I really missed was crispy fried prawns, which would have made it perfect, hence one star less. Otherwise, highly recommended!”

“Great experience and good food at Ask. Lovely server called Mara who was so friendly and to say it was only her second shift, she was fab!”

“excellent food for price and good staff solved problem I made in seconds very helpful”

“We ordered some food for delivery tonight. I was pleasantly surprised by how big the portions for the pasta were! Literally the size as a Ben and Jerrys tub! We really enjoyed our food and will be ordering again.”

“We couldn’t decide on what to have for dinner. We were on our way to get a kebab but saw this truck parked at the pub and decided to turn around. We are glad we did because the pizza was fantastic! We had the pepperoni, Francesca, and the special mushroom truffle. All three were very good! Definitely a must try!”

“Very good pizza! Would recommend. Had multiple deliveries and all have been excellent.”

“Gorgeous pizza in a lovely atmosphere plus great tunes as added bonus. They use ingredients from their allotment and stone milled organic grains for their dough which is so tasty even on its own. I had fig and goats cheese, can't express how delicious it is. There's a wide selection of organic wine to sip while you wait. Me and my friends had a great time! (Also the rye chocolate cookies are like heaven).”

“Great food. Lovely atmosphere and friendly service. 110 percent recommend”

“From just looking at the menu the food seems really basic and overpriced and I do find it difficult to justify spending £9.95 on lunch (with the small portion option) but while the ingredients are simple the portion you get for small is filling and as they say the ingredients truly are fresh and delicious. My favourites were the daal and hot potatoes. The main protein I had, chicken breast, seemed bland at first glance but actually tasted very good. Unfortunately I forgot to take additional pictures below the top layer. I think I'd only get this for lunch on special occasions but I think I would get the better value medium for dinner more often, I can't imagine finishing a medium bowl in one sitting. 2: I finally found an excuse to go again and it was really good. I had the salmon this time, which cost £2.50 extra ! It was quite good, a touch fishy. I had the daal, chicken curry, beef rice thingy. It was all quite filling and good.”

“Book a table! We visited on the strength of other reviews and it was excellent. No pizzas on the menu (unless we missed them), which pushed the kids to try some of the pasta-dishes, which did not disappoint. Finished off with some proper gelato (can recommend the coffee flavour).”

“One of the best pizzas in the UK. I'm Italian, and this is exactly what you'd find in Naples. Great location with a beer garden and amazing service. Paolo is very friendly and professional. My wife and I have been regular customers since we moved to Derby in 2021. I would 100000% recommend it.”

“The Bridge Inn is an awesome place, located near the canals, it has an amazing view. The food is Italian. Today we had the Bridge Inn special which is fantastic. Really recommend this place.”

“It's taken us ages to actually get round to booking a table but decided to take our friend here for his birthday. We were really impressed with the food and the service. I had a steak which was cooked perfectly and the chips and onion rings were amazing. The rest of the meals were great and it's a lovely atmosphere and the staff were lovely. To top it off they even brought out a surprise dessert with a candle on for the birthday boy. Thanks for a great meal.”

“Fantastic restaurant. Great holiday feel, food was incredible, the Biscoff Cheesecake was to die for. Friendly, courteous staff. Convenient parking.”

“We actually got a take away so I can't comment too much about the atmosphere, however a dainty, small Italian joint is exactly where I imagine i'd be if I was somewhere in Italy. The food was fantastic, I've known the restaurant was there for 5+ years during my time at Derby Uni and last night was the first time I had ever set foot. We ordered a starter, two pastas and a pizza and I'm impressed. Will definitely be back!”

“We visited today for my birthday and oh my goodness it's was brilliant. Absolutely fantastic service from a very friendly guy (didn't get his name!) from the minute we walked in. So refreshing to have a waiter who does things so well. Cocktails were lovely and well made and the birthday card was a very nice touch. We both had three courses, and finished every last bit of it all! Really delicious. My husband particularly enjoyed the Thai sweet potato soup and I absolutely loved the rump of lamb. The flavours were so fresh and delicious. Felt like a real treat to visit somewhere so lovely. Can't wait to revisit! Thank you!”

“Really great quality pizza, I'd say one of the best takeaway pizzas I've had. The wings were a huge surprise also - way better size and quality than you usually get. Very respectful delivery driver. Will come again”
