The 30 Best Italian street food in Manchester

“We had a wonderful meal here the other night. The atmosphere for a Thursday night was great. Good to see it busy again after covid. The restaurant was warm which quite a few places I’ve been recently hasn’t been! Food was delicious. We all had starters, I had the Arancini was good. Everyone else ate all of there’s and good comments all round. Pizzas were wonderful as ever. The margarita cocktails were one of the best I’ve had. The service was good just a little slow. Thank you Mozzerellas team. As someone who’s been dining with you for 10 years it’s great to see you keep the standard high!”

“5*! The food, service and ambience was amazing! We visited on a Saturday, they had live music which added to the atmosphere. We are vegetarian, but had plenty of options! Lorenzo was fab! Thank you!”

“Sweet music, good prices and amazing staff. Also the presence of a toilet is anhuge olus for such a small cafe.”

“Food was absolutely delicious. We had the banana french toast and the salami and prosciutto ciabatta. The best we’ve had. Good portion sizes and great value for money.”

“A great spot to dine with friends and family. The food was cooked with love and care and the environment was friendly and warm. Myself and my friends had a lamb wrap, chicken wings with chips, shakshouka, falafel, coffee and baklava and each bite was a treat for the tastebuds. After finishing our meal we just wanted to sit and enjoy each others company and we were welcomed to this, not being hurried out of the door and instead being invited to stay for as long as we liked. I will definitely be visiting Dina again.”

“If you haven’t been to this place or ordered you need to ask yourself WHY! The service, the atmosphere, the friendly staff and the food are amazing! The paella i ordered was not only cooked with different ingredients as I am unsure on some seafood but absolutely out of this world! Even when i have been to Spain i have never tasted a paella that is so full of flavour! Massive compliments to the chef for accommodating my needs and for how tasty this paella really is! Thanks again Guys!”

“Had a few lockdown takeouts from here over summer so was brilliant to get to eat in house tonight. Great service and lovely food. Good selection of tantalizingly priced cocktails too. Espresso martinis that were almost as good as my own. Book early. This place is a gem.”

“I went to Pronto Pizza, and I must say, it was one of the best pizza experiences I’ve had! The flavors were incredible, and the quality of the ingredients really stood out. A special shoutout to Aniruth, who made the pizza—his recommendations were spot on, and the pizza he prepared was absolutely perfect. You can tell he’s passionate about what he does. The crust was crisp, the toppings were fresh, and the balance of flavors was just right. Highly recommend Pronto Pizza to anyone looking for a fantastic meal. I’ll definitely be back soon!”

“My mam and I attended the restaurant on Monday evening. Really prompt and smooth service. Our server Molly was fantastic, can’t sing her praises enough. She had really great menu knowledge and treated us at the end of the meal to a little taster of the new lime & basil ice cream that we were in two minds about getting. The host who took us to our table was lovely and very helpful with allergen queries. Food was spot on, can’t go wrong with that Spinach and Egg pizza and the Bosco Salad was heavenly. Thanks for a gorgeous evening all round.”

“First Experience:- I recently visited a Papa John's branch, Manchester Central (M1 5AN) Store on Dec 10-2024 with Order Number- 76413598 and it was an absolutely wonderful experience! From the moment I entered, the atmosphere felt welcoming, but the real highlight of my visit was the exceptional service provided by Ajay, one of the representatives at the store. Ajay is an incredibly kind, polite, and professional individual who went above and beyond to make my visit memorable. He patiently helped me decide on my order, offering thoughtful suggestions and ensuring that my preferences were met perfectly. His joyful and cheerful demeanor made the entire experience even more pleasant, leaving a lasting impression. What truly sets Ajay apart is his dedication to quality. I collected my order and took it home by bus, braving the cold and windy weather, but even then, the pizza was still hot and absolutely delicious. It was clear that Ajay takes great pride in his work and ensures the highest standard of preparation. Ajay's outstanding service and friendly nature are a true asset to Papa John's. His ability to connect with customers and create a positive experience is rare and highly commendable. I hope his manager recognizes his efforts because he truly deserves praise for representing the brand in such an exemplary manner. Thanks to Ajay and the delicious pizza, I can’t wait to visit again soon. A big shout-out to Papa John's for having such an incredible team member! Second Visit:- I visited Papa John's again today 25 Dec, and once again, it was an experience to remember. The delicious pizza, crafted with so much care and love, truly made my Christmas special. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and it was clear that the team, especially Ajay, put their heart into ensuring customers receive the best. Ajay’s dedication and cheerful nature once again stood out. His warm and friendly demeanor, combined with his passion for delivering exceptional service, made the visit feel even more festive. It’s rare to find someone who consistently goes above and beyond to make customers feel valued and appreciated. The pizza was nothing short of perfection, as always—hot, fresh, and packed with flavor that warmed me up on this chilly Christmas day. It’s experiences like these that remind me why I keep coming back to Papa John’s. A big thank you to Ajay and the entire team for making this Christmas unforgettable with their outstanding service and amazing food. Wishing them a joyful holiday season filled with the same love and warmth they share with their customers!”

“All our family went for a Christmas meal on Saturday evening and then onto the Stockport Plaza to see the pantomime. Zizzi had a Christmas menu that was £30 per person for 3 courses. The food was delicious and the portion sizes were very good. We had fantastic service and very friendly staff. We had a lovely evening and would highly recommend Zizzi for a family meal out.”

“There are not many pizza places where you see them making their own bases. I prefer a thinner crust, but not too thin - these are just right!”

“Came to manchester from london and ordered pounded yam and oha soup. As soon as I tasted the soup it felt like been transported back to the village. I could taste the home cooking in every bite. Atmosphere was good. The host was friendly and in my view one of the best African restaurants I have visited.”

“If I could give this place 10* I would! Me and my partner went to Gio for a meal whilst staying in Manchester and it surpassed all expectations. We were waited on by the nicest of staff, the wine was gorgeous and the food was incredible! I will be dining here every time we visit Manchester. The lobster ravioli and clams were phenomenal and the tiramisu was out of this world! I hadn't dressed up as we'd been to the game and was wandering around for the evening but we were treated just as well as the finely dressed diners.”

“Lovely fresh pasta and ingredients! Highly recommended for fresh cooked food takeaway that is not greasy. I used to order via Uber/Just Eats but if you call they will take card payment on delivery and avoid the rubbish delivery/service fees!”

“I tried their chicken chow mien and loved it. I will definitely visit this takeaway to try other dishes when I am around.”

“called in for a couple of coffees cake and biscuits. friendly helpful pleasant staff. warm and clean surroundings. busy but not overcrowded . a few minutes walk from Piccadilly gardens . quieter than the ever popular other locations and able to get a seat”

“Fresh tasty pizza great cheese pull too”

“Exceptional customer service and food, will definitely be going back and leaving a nice tip for first time service. Much appreciated!”
