Puccini Pizzeria Ristorante in Salford

Lovely environment and excellent staff, lovely food choices, if you have not been before, give it ago, you'll love it 😊

Don't know what the people reviewing in the past 2 weeks are going on about.We went tonight - the food was honestly the best Italian I've ever had and the service was quick, professional and attentive. We didn't have to wait around, even though it was busy.Also the portion sizes are very generous (we were both really full).It's by far the best restaurant around. Just go and see for yourself rather than deliberating and reading reviews.

We ate at Puccini’s this evening to celebrate my son’s 1st birthday. The staff, food, music and environment was an absolute delight from start to finish. The restaurant is full of class, professionalism & epic food..the waiters where so lovely, really friendly, approachable, caring and great with kids. They even surprised us and bought over a little cake for my son with a candle in whilst we all sang Happy Birthday. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough, will definitely be coming back again & keep up the amazing work.Order the Penne Alla Nicholas, it was stunning..!

Compared to what it was like before Covid, this place now is not great at all. We loved to come to this place, but after our last visit, we have decided that it will be our last one. Now we are not surprised why this place do not have so many customers like before.Portion sizes got reduced drastically and prices were raised a lot. Yesterday’s evening experience was shocking. I decided to go for a lamb shank, but they were out of stock, so the other lamb dish that I chose came to a size of a snack...and it cost almost £25. When we have ordered desserts, after long waiting one of the waiters came to us saying that they were out of tiramisu, then I have asked for lemon meringue cake that they also not had... Others decided to go for ice cream and pannacotta and again had to wait for a very long time... Kids ice cream arrived, but adults not, so we had to wait again for ages and ask waiters where our desserts gone. Finally when our deserts arrived the size of the pannacotta was ridiculously small (size of a small yogurt pot) that was priced at £7 and the adult size ice cream had only 1 additional small waffle on top costing extra £2 compared to our kids ice cream.Before coming to this place with our friends for my hubby’s birthday we were very excited... But now we regret our decision to come here.Giving two stars only because food quality is still good, but everything else is disappointing.

Really disappointing. We used to really like this restaurant, but the food is now over priced. Small fillet of salmon for £21. Kids food took ages when we asked for it to come out when it was ready. A kids margarita was only £1.50 cheaper then a full sized adult full vegi pizza. So £8! Unfortunately just an extremely disappointing visit.

First time I have visited Puccini and I wasn't disappointed. The food was amazing and service was excellent from start to finish. I would highly recommend Puccini to any wishing to have a nice Italian meal and I will definitely will be back soon.

For a special occasion it has to be Puccini's 😊 Great food, great service and great atmosphere. Best Italian restaurant in our opinion so try it for yourself and we are sure you will feel the same.

Absolutely Amazing to be back at this fabulous restaurant not been here in 10 years (moved away from the area) the food was fantastic... Great value for money and staff excellent... The new interior was beautiful... Overall a fabulous experience comfy dining with fabulous food...

Puccini was okay but I personally didn't feel the hype. My pate starter was disappointing but my friend opted for the meatballs which looked a lot betterMy main course was the linguine with monkfish, kingprawns and scallops. This was a delicious dish, just couldn't done with a bit more pasta for me but I couldn't fault the flavour.For dessert I had tiramisu but I think the server misunderstood me when I asked for some cream while I took a quick video and proceeded to drown the dessert. Luckily I love cream so it just made me laugh and I lapped it upService was quick and the staff were friendly. I just feel it was slightly overpriced

Puccini is one of the few restaurants where you will get a proper eating out experience from all points of view. Everything from the restaurant design to the food and staff is a positive experience.The restaurant is a bit tight on space, but overall very well laid out. Tables and silverware are always spotless. The restaurant is very classy and it's a proper Italian restaurant experience. The staff are always courteous and act professionally, more so than in other larger and more popular restaurant.Admirable is the fact that the owner will most likely welcome you all the time when you get here. He's very attentive and always making sure his customers are well looked after and fully satisfied with their meals.I've been here on multiple occasions with family and friends, some of whom have been living in Italy for over 10 years and were highly impressed with the restaurant, staff and food. The food which is always amazing, tasty and well presented. I haven't tried everything on the menu yet, but the lasagne is to die for and even the small portion is plentiful. All the steaks I've tried were juicy and delicious and with the right amount of veggies and sauce.As well as food, you will find a few good Italian wines, out of which Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is probably my favourite. Staff will make sure to keep your glasses topped and are always on had to address any of your concerns.One thing that's admirable is that they have an open view kitchen so you can always make sure your food is prepared in a proper environment, if you are concerned with that. And, I've been behind the kitchen doors of a few restaurants so far which were absolutely a shame when it came to tidiness and cleanliness. But not Puccini. The kitchen here was absolutely spotless every time when I've been here and peeked inside.Overall this restaurant the best one in the UK that I've been at so far and I will keep recommending them to anyone wanting a top experience when eating out.
