"I was surprised by the positive reviews and the restaurant's high ranking in Bury. The service was mediocre - drinks were served promptly, but we had to wait a long time to order food. Unfortunately, my daughter, who has an egg allergy, was unable to enjoy any pasta dishes as all the pasta contained egg. Despite the menu stating that ingredients could be adjusted, the staff did not make any effort to accommodate her allergy. My tagliatelle was good, but my wife's lasagne was disappointing with burnt pasta on the bottom and raw on top. The pizzas were average. Overall, there are better Italian restaurants in Bury."

"POSITIVES: really tasty food all of our plates were empty and we enjoyed each dish good choices for vegetarian and pescatarian meals NEGATIVES: Pub was freezing cold, we were both in our coats and still had cold fingers and toes. It killed the atmosphere for us on a Friday evening pricey for what it is and it’s location, it was the same prices as a decent restaurant in Manchester, but without the ambiance. I imagine the rent in Holcombe is much less than manchester and they might invest in some heating tiny portions! We ordered 7 dishes between 2 and were both still hungry afterwards. Average dish was around £10 and they didn’t touch the sides. 10% service charge auto added. I hate it when any restaurant add this as this takes away the customer’s kind gesture. It becomes an expectation. Yes this is optional, but it’s to awkward to request that this is removed or reduced. I think this is assumptive when there’s only two diners and we had arrived and exited within the hour, was both still hungry and was sat in the cold for the duration."

"We were in Bury for a few days visiting family and the weather was beautiful , we live on the Wirral and frequently visit Brasco lounge in Liverpool of the same chain , which we love. We actually visited Racconto lounge 3 times on our visit , first time we had a brunch of bacon and egg muffin , which we really enjoyed (although the bacon was very salty) The next day we came back and had a lounge breakfast , and the following day we brought my husbands mum , and drank cups of tea while resting from shopping . We enjoyed all the meals , and its lovely inside , although we ate on the terrace in the sunshine and we found all the staff very pleasant and friendly . But..... we had 2 things let it down for us . Firstly on each occasion , the service was extremely slow, when we had breakfast , it wasn't very busy , but we waited ages , although our tea was brought out well before the food , meaning we then had no drinks to go with the food . The second problem was , after waiting ages , we had to send the breakfast back as it was really cold , and it seemed like it had been sat waiting , almost as long as we had , the bacon on both the breakfast muffin and the breakfast was really , really salty also. None of this would put us off , as we enjoyed the dining experience overall , but if you are in a rush , i really wouldn't recommend eating here , as the wait was alot longer than expected every time ."

"My wife and I paid a visit to Italia Mia on Friday evening, hard to believe we haven't been since just before Xmas. As usual, a warm welcome from Enzo and the lovely waiting staff and a very nice atmosphere in the restaurant. After reading another review, I decided on whitebait to start these were plentiful and perfectly cooked with just the right amount of seasoning. Along with the inevitable garlic tomato bread, an ideal start to the meal. My wife had the chicken with asparagus in a cream sauce whilst I opted for a sirloin steak and pepper sauce, served with abundant fresh vegetables and rosemary roast potatoes. Sweet menu was very tempting but we decided to be good (boring), another very good experience at this popular Italian and we certainly won't leave it as long before we visit again. Thanks to all for an enjoyable meal."
