Fantastic food and service, our server was a young woman who could not do enough for us, she gave us her name on a card but I misplaced it. We came before the theatre and they ensured we were well looked after and out in time for the show, we were seated immediately at the door but we didn’t mind too much. Everyone was very attentive and the food was absolutely amazing, especially the burrata. We will definitely return.

For our 40th Birthday our friend gifted us a meal here. The service, food and atmosphere was brilliant. Made especially enjoyable by our lovely waitress Precious, who took the time to have a chat with us and ask us if everything was OK with our meal. We will be back again. 😋🥰

Visited Italiana Fifty Five with a friend after purchasing a Groupon voucher for a two course meal with a drink (£29 valid Sunday-Thursday). The booking process via Groupon was easy, and on the day I called to ensure that the reservation was still good to go. We arrived in the afternoon and received a courteous, professional welcome from Paolo, who seated us at the table.
There was a special Voucher Menu containing the exact same options as listed in the Groupon voucher description.
We decided to have a main course and dessert, choosing the Salmone Adriatico (grilled salmon with asparagus and prawns in a cream sauce) and Pollo porcini (chicken fillet in mushroom sauce) for mains. For dessert we had the Tiramisu and Creme Brulee. which were presented beautifully.
The service was speedy, Precious answered our questions and she did her utmost to ensure that our food was served as quickly as possible, as we had somewhere else to be within an hour of our arrival, so the dining experience was delicious, quick and with good customer service.
I'd definitely recommend Italiana Fifty Five as the atmosphere is relaxed (the tables are too close to each other in my opinion, fortunately we visited on a Monday afternoon), for a Groupon menu it's very worth it, especially if you're looking to dine with friends, partner, or as a family.

Great portion at reasonable price. It’s even cheaper after we applied a discount.
We ordered lots of foods. I especially like the spaghetti carbonara. I was also impressed by the waiter, Ian, who served us this evening. Though we had a couple of requests and enquiries, he was so patient and always try his best to satisfy our needs.

Best, most noble Italian restaurant in Manchester! We went there and they had a 50% off food offer, and the food was so good that we decided to go there again. It is just absolutely delicious Pizza, Spaghetti and Lasagna, served with a really authentic Italian touch. The waiters are super friendly and attentive and they fulfil your every wish, recommending some specials a la carte. Huge thanks to the fabulous kitchen and team for this special experience we got when visiting Manchester!

This is what you need in your life, this is food that makes your soul happy! A piece of Italië in Manchester, the food, the staff the restaurant… it’s just amazing.
We had a lovely dinner here and we were amazed by the quality and the service. Definitely recommend to eat here! There is just no wrong thing to choose from the menu, everything looks so delicious and the taste was amazing! If we ever visit Manchester again this is out to go to! Keep up the good work.

We had a lovely meal at Cibo. The food was good the service was excellent considering we had a trainee serve us. She did a good job! The atmosphere needs work. It's a small restaurant and it was practically empty only 4 tables were seated but we were still squashed and when asked if we could have more space the answer was no but we can move you to a table exactly like the one you are at... that made no sense so we sat cramped and squashed. The waitress was great but the hostess needs to work on herself she was intrusive as if she was rushing for something... not sure what as the restaurant only had 4 tables seated for our entire stay but she was rushing us. Please wipe the bottom of your plates before serving our plates had oil on the bottom which then went on your table cloth and our hands. That being said I would recommend going here for lunch if you are 2-3 people. We won't be going back to this particular spot but we will be going back to Cibo's other locations.

Really nice food, ordering the Chateaubriand is in itself an experience as they cut and serve it to you tableside. The service overall is superb, really accomodationg and Hiba is a star.

Lovely food and quick service. Nice and clean, staff friendly and helpful. We had a group of 5 people and all the meals came out together except the gluten free pizza, however they informed us that there had been a mistake and it had been made with gluten dough so they were remaking it which explained the delay so didn't mind waiting on that and apparently it was the best pizza ever

I recently dined at Cibo as they were taking part in the January Restaurant week and had a great experience. To start, I had the Garlic Bread with cheese which was simply divine - it had the perfect balance of garlic and cheese, and was a great way to whet my appetite. For my main course, I had the Chicken Milanese which was cooked to perfection - the chicken was tender and the breadcrumbs were crispy and golden brown. However, the highlight of my meal was definitely the Lobster Pasta - it was one of the best pasta dishes I have ever had! The lobster was cooked to perfection and the sauce was rich and flavorful. Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Cibo - the food was amazing and the service was excellent.

Great service (Paolo and crew)
Good portions
Delicious food
Halal chicken!
Special show including cheese wheel if you are looking to celebrate an occasion and love cheese ( it leaves creaminess and big chunks in your food!)
Affordable lunch/early dinner menu till 7pm if the main menu is expensive

Really enjoyed a meal here on Sunday evening. The food was well cooked and tasty. Service was attentive - our waiters were very courteous and on the ball, they made it a genuinely good experience. However, my gripe is that the tables are way too close together. We felt like we were dining with the adjacent table of diners and couldn't therefore have a private conversation. I will be back sometime for a meal but hope the seating is rearranged.

I ordered the tiramisu and my friend the pana cotta, overall the experience was enjoyable though at times considerably loud and we were shouting to hear eachother, the waiters made a few mistakes though it could have just been the noise level. Overall still a nice trip
