A fabulous evening from start to finish. You receive such a warm welcome when you arrive and the staff are clearly passionate about what they do. We took their recommendations and we were not disappointed. The suppli zucca (fried rice balls) were so tasty and the truffle honey on the side was loooovely. The gnocchi duck was delicious too. I'll definitely be back as I want to try more dishes!

Lovely family run restaurant with so many interesting choices of food. The food was delicious but what really made our trip was the staff and the vibe. They were super accommodating, friendly & energetic and we felt so comfortable and cosy there. Would definitely recommend if you love classic Italian food but appreciate experimentation. Lovely limoncello on the house to finish our trip! Will 1000% come again

***THE Best Meal of my life*** I'm 53yrs old and have eaten in many restaurants around the world. The Sea Bass "special" I had tonight was simply the best meal of my life so far. And, by some margin. The flavours were just sublime perfection. You can check my other reviews, I do not offer faint praise, this was exceptional. The service and staff were great. It was only our second visit and they remembered us from months ago (we aren't THAT odd to be memorable). We are so lucky to have this on our doorstep in Altrincham. So very lucky.

If you’re in the mood for an authentic Italian dining experience, this restaurant is a must-visit. The food is absolutely delicious, with each dish bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors. Garlic Bread: This garlic bread is a perfect balance of crispy and soft. The golden, buttery crust is infused with fragrant garlic and fresh herbs, delivering a deliciously savory bite. The warmth and subtle crunch of the bread pair beautifully with the rich, aromatic flavors, making it the perfect start to any meal. Bruschetta with Mushrooms and Caramelized Onion: This twist on traditional bruschetta elevates the classic with earthy, sautéed mushrooms and sweet, caramelized onions. The toasted bread provides a crisp, warm foundation, while the mushrooms add a deep umami richness, and the onions bring a delightful sweetness. Together, they create a mouthwatering contrast of flavors—savory, sweet, and utterly satisfying. Gnocchi with Duck: The gnocchi is a velvety, pillowy delight that practically melts in your mouth. Paired with tender, succulent duck, this dish offers a beautifully balanced combination of flavors. The rich, savory duck perfectly complements the delicate gnocchi, while a flavorful sauce adds depth, making every bite a comforting, luxurious experience. Lasagne: This lasagne is a true indulgence, with layers of perfectly cooked pasta, rich bolognese sauce, and a creamy béchamel that ties it all together. The meat sauce is hearty and flavorful, while the béchamel adds a smooth, velvety richness. Topped with melted cheese that forms a golden, bubbling crust, each bite is a comforting, satisfying blend of textures and deep, savory flavors. The atmosphere adds to the charm, too. The lively energy fills the space, with friendly service and a welcoming vibe that makes it perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. Highly recommend!

Me and my mum came in today to try the food as we have a party booked in the private room at the end of March, Our server was Molly and what a lovely young woman she was so polite so helpful and an absolute credit to the team. The other waiters serving the meats were also very Lovely + made small talk which was nice when explaining what the meats were when serving which was helpful. The assistant manager was extremely informative and very helpful and came to check on us while we were dining. All in all we can’t wait for our return to jardin where they serve great food, beautiful well presented cocktails , a fab atmosphere and brilliant service. 5 stars from us! Thankyou again.

Lovely restaurant in Altrincham. Brazilian style buffet with a range of delicious meats. Staff were friendly and tentative. Lovely interior and enjoyed the music/atmosphere. The meats were great but the pork belly was over cooked, it was tough and dry. I think the meats could have been seasoned more too but there was salt a& pepper on the table so no biggie! Generous sizes for cocktails! We would go again!

I asked the team a favour if they can help me celebrate both my friends birthday by surprising them with a piece of cake each and a candle, the team went above and beyond by presenting a very nice chocolate cake with a fantastic sparkle candle. Thank you so much for the lovely service and food you've given us. We shall dine here again next month.

We've always opted to go to bem brazil previously for a similar kind of cuisine, having not known about Jardim until recently, but They had quickly started to really disappoint with their lack of service and value for money. We visited Jardim last night and did not leave disappointed! The staff were very welcoming, professional, polite and attentive. The salad bar was brilliant, something our previous choice of resturant had stopped doing, everything was fresh and tasty and there was lots to choose from We ordered 1 of each side and especially liked the truffle fries and the maccaroni cheese with jalapeños i could've easily ate a large bowl on its own! The servers with the meat skewers were coming round regularly and the cuts of meat were juicy and cooked perfectly, the sausages and chicken were also delicious 😋 This experience has easily put Jardim at the top spot for us ahead of bem brazil and even fazenda! We will be back very soon!

The food is good, but the vegan options aren't really there. They do, however, accommodate if you let them know you're vegan. But the choice is very minimal. I did feel my starter of 4 tiny bruscetta was not worth 8.95!!! The restaurant is small & intimate. Very warm inside, do not fetch a jacket!! Lol Parking is good at the back on the market/street. Service OK, and you're always served a Lemonchello afterwards

Lively enough to have fun but quiet enough to hear each other. Absolutely fabulous food. Amazing service! Had 3 courses, cocktails, the full works, the 1 and only thing I could moan about is the price of water but honestly one of the best Italians I've been too!

Booked here for Friday just gone, and the customer service is something that really stood out to me. I have particular dietary requirements, which is a little awkward at these places as it requires a lot of questions in terms of prep, cook, and ingredients. Normally, I tend to avoid restaurants where it is like that because I either don't trust the full information or it feels as though my needs aren't being listened to or get understood completely. So I stick with where I know. However, I thought I'd try. I called prior to my booking and asked these questions, and the lady who makes the deserts / one of the owners? Went above and beyond to answer all questions clearly and understood my circumstances, alongside doing additional research on certain products and giving me a call back to give the right information. I really appreciate the time and effort here On the day we arrived, the table was ready and clean. Good time that we were in there for, just short of 2 hours busy Friday evening and managed a 3 course meal with drinks to start at the beginning. Food came out hot, the waitress who did check back was friendly, and the atmosphere with the music made the environment nice to sit and eat. Thank you - enjoy the holidays

I booked La Fillia for my engagement party last week and I couldn’t be more impressed! The service was outstanding and the food was beyond perfect! We asked for family style serving for a group of 20 and everything went very smooth and the food was excellent! Considering that this is a new establishment they have set the bar very high for restaurants in Altrincham and we are very excited to see them succeed for the future!

One of our go to favourite restaurants in Altrincham. The food and service is excellent. Thanks Jenny and Luigi for the care and attention you give us and from what I know to all customers. Luigi, your special attention to detail and professional friendly service is second to none! We really appreciate how you take the extra care with my gluten allergy to ensure a hassle free dinner experience. Thank you Luigi!

Able to cope with some small changes to the booking, and get us seated quickly. Prompt but unhurried service, from very friendly staff. Difficult choice when ordering as everything sounded delicious and some of the dishes observed being brought to other tables looked and smelled amazing. There was no disappointment when our plates arrived the whitebait and bruschetta starters were just the ticket. The lasagne and side salad was obviously home made and looked and tasted incredible. The pollo Milanese was spot on too. First visit, won't be the last.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Burgerito and I was blown away by the food. I started with the smashed burger, which is their signature dish, and it was honestly one of the best burgers I've ever had. The meat was perfectly cooked and juicy, and the toppings were fresh and delicious. The chips were also amazing - they were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a delicious and satisfying meal.

Being in the UK for more than 17 months, I have tried many restaurants some were average and most were not good enough. This is the first time to try something different It was the best burger I’ve ever tasted. The sandwich was generous and stuffed with a big piece of tasty burger and extras. The sauce was unique I tried the fries as well which were crunchy and has some spices that gave them a delicious taste (don’t miss it) I have heard about the chicken they have but I didn’t try it yet (I will soon) My kids kept talking about about that experience during the rest of the day. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Wow! Our visit to Burgerito with the family was fantastic! The beef burger I had was easily the best I've ever tasted in Manchester. The kids loved their chicken burgers too. The staff were super friendly, and the prices were reasonable. We're definitely going back for more juicy burgers. Highly recommended!"

Last night, my partner and I, along with her brother and his wife, had the absolute pleasure of dining at here, and I can confidently say it was one of the best Italian meals we’ve ever had! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and welcoming, with an authentic charm that instantly transported us to the heart of Italy. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every detail of our experience was perfect. The food? Simply divine. We started with a selection of antipasti that were bursting with flavor – the bruschetta was a particular highlight, with the freshest tomatoes and perfectly crisp bread. For mains, each of us chose something different, and every dish was an absolute pleasure to eat. The wine list was excellent, and the staff were happy to recommend the perfect pairing for our dishes. It’s clear that this restaurant takes pride in every aspect of what they do, from the ingredients to the service. Whether you’re a fan of Italian cuisine or just looking for a fantastic dining experience, I couldn’t recommend Domus Italia highly enough. We’re already planning our next visit! Thank you Ben

We went into Rigatoni's on impulse and, wow, we had such a special experience ☺️😋. I had the dish with gorgonzola and pickled pears (pictured) and my husband had the aubergine dish. Both were absolutely delicious with tastes and flavours we've never experienced before. I had the Passimiento wine which was extraordinarily tasty and we finished our meal off with some gorgeous ice cream! The service from Stuart, was fantastic: friendly, personal, relaxed and professional. We were celebrating our anniversary and this meal made it very special. Highly recommended!!!

Every now and again you go for a meal and everything is just right ….. after dropping our daughter off at Manchester airport we were heading into Altrincham for a bite to eat, we had planned on a tapas but when we saw Rigatoni’s and their delicious looking menu we knew this was the one, and we were absolutely right!!!! From the warm welcome we received from the manager, who found us a lovely table outside under the heaters, such cosy spot….the food speaks for itself, a small but perfectly formed menu which to us means fresh food, it was just so delicious, we opted for the seafood and the signature rags, both absolutely delicious, we had skipped a started and opted for dessert and we were not disappointed…the treacle and apple pie really was one of the nicest desserts we have eaten in a long time…. Not too sweet just incredibly flavoursome… we finished with a coffee and limoncello!!!! Simply divine 😋…. What adds to the great food is the fabulous service, so welcoming and you know how much it means to these guys when like us you leave feeling so happy…. Cannot wait to go back 😊

We have been coming here since 2015 and can honestly say it’s our favourite restaurant. The food, service, staff and atmosphere are second to none. My favourite dishes of the Bruschetta Pugliese and the Broccolini pasta main are still on the menu which fills me with joy! The service from Tony and the team is exceptional and you are made to feel part of the family. Tonight didn’t disappoint and thank you for still living up to such a high standard of exceptional Puglian inspired dishes and fantastic customer service. We look forward to coming back soon.
