Cannot fault the staff, food and service at Carluccios - Incredibly accommodating for a large table of 13 for our daughter's 8th Birthday. We pre-ordered and it was seamless from start to finish. Massive thanks to Keni for all of his efforts regarding dietary requirements too! We will be back.

Excellent evening having a family celebration meal for our daughter’s 40th birthday. Most of the dishes are gluten free or can be made gluten free which is great for us with 2 of the family being gluten free. There is a good range of dishes to choose from and the quality of the food is very good. Service was exceptional, always at the right time and no hovering. Thanks for a wonderful evening.
