Came calzone last night, first of all food wasn’t my expectation and service was unpleasant. Would not recommend this place staff are useless!!!!

We had seafood platter which it was out of this world , on a sunny day what else to you need other than seafood and beer Family also enjoyed as children menu is good , next time we will book our table , outside area gets busy very quick, have a seafood platter to know why I am writting this.

This is the second time I have eaten at Calzone's and the service and food again was spot on. Great menu with loads of choice and they even have gluten free options. Food arrived hot and tasted amazing. The staff are extremely helpful and polite. Will definitley recommend to friends and family and more importantly, I will definitley be back. Thank you for a wonderful meal. Ver carta

I don’t review normally but all I can say is don’t go , I had a pizza they tasted and looked like a Chicago town pizza that I would only eat if I’d had too much to drink and was very hungry) the base was obviously a frozen base for over £15 , my partner had pesto chicken pasta that had more oil in it than Saudi Arabia , we left most of it , I paid , left and will never go back , please don’t waste your hard earned money , go next door , darcys is lovely

I used to frequent this restaurant, but I was extremely disappointed with my recent visit. What has happened? The lack of curb appeal, dirty and wobbly tables, sticky menus, and unenthusiastic staff make for a dismal experience. The only positive aspect was that the two pasta dishes we ordered were delicious, although we had to ask for parmesan twice. Compared to their neighbor, Darcys, which is bright, inviting, and friendly, this restaurant needs to make improvements quickly before it ends up like another failed business.

We used to frequent this restaurant regularly, but upon returning today to pick up a takeaway, it appeared that the once lively and bustling Italian gem had lost its spark. I was disappointed to find that my order was not taken correctly, resulting in bland food. Although the staff tried to rectify the mistake by offering a free drink and correcting the order, it was not enough to salvage the experience. The lack of engagement from the front of house staff was noticeable, and the overall atmosphere seemed off. It's a shame that this will be my last visit to the restaurant. I wonder what went wrong.

My family and I were having a night away staying at the Holiday Inn Express around the corner, we had a lovely evening walk along the canal and came across Calzone Essenntial. We had been to Naples on holiday last year so we fancied another taste of Italy. The staff were all very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them. We had the cheese and meat platter for starter and 2 calzones which was all so beautiful, the kids had a deal of dough balls/mozzarella sticks and a pepperoni pizza each which was amazing and such good value. A good selection of bottled beers, wines, spirits and liquer coffees too. Thank you for a beautiful family meal

This was once such a great place, but I suppose nothing lasts for ever. Maybe there is new management or ownership. We ordered an 18” pizza takeaway and we were given 1 x 12” and 1 x 9” pizzas, with the bizarre logic that 9” 12” 21” is bigger than the area of an 18”. It isn’t. We were told they didn’t have big enough boxes for the 18” pizzas. How about just putting the slices from the 18 into 2-3 smaller boxes? Simple GCSE maths will show that an 18” pizza has an area of 255 square inches. The 9” and 12” combo has 177 square inches. So, they were effectively providing 30% less pizza than we ordered. A complete rip-off. I politely explained this to the staff and they initially just shrugged t...

We arrived at the restaurant without a reservation on a busy Friday night, after just checking into our hotel across the water. The staff were accommodating and quickly seated our group of 6. They easily put tables together and made sure we had menus. The menu offered a variety of classic Italian dishes, which we found to be enjoyable. The staff promptly took our orders and delivered our drinks and starters. I ordered the whitebait, which was tasty with plenty of fish and some salad. The cheesy garlic bread was also delicious and larger than expected. Other members of our group tried dishes like mussels and calamari and were pleased with their choices. For the main course, I had the creamy L... Ver carta
