We had to send a fillet steak back twice, the pepper sauce was cold and tasted like gravy and the second meal had clearly been microwaved. It then took 20 minutes to receive a third meal by then we had all finished and my partner had to sit and eat alone. Very disappointing will not be returning.

Groupon voucher confusing - thought we were having 2 courses with wine and turned out to be 1 course with wine . When we came to pay - disputed the charge for starters but told that our voucher not for 2 courses - were shown the alternative voucher that was 2 courses with prosecco. So here's the thing - why is Groupon offering 2 very different deals on the same promotion and why does a main course come with absolutely no sides - we had chicken in sauce and we then had to pay for sides of chips. All around the 5 of us felt it was a poor show!!!

Came across this restaurant by chance on an offer website. The offer wasn't available at the time we wanted to dine, but we decided to try Al Bacio anyway. It was a good decision. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. Another good thing about this restaurant is that you can have a starter size of any pasta. I will certainly be revisiting here.

Al Bacio is a hidden gem in Manchester. Everything from the welcome to the food itself was perfect. Francesco was a most attentive and charming host and the duck ravioli was to die for. Highly recommended to anyone planning a trip to the Christmas Markets.

Lovely place with friendly staff. Starter was delicious but unfortunately the main was way too salty. Also not impressed that dishes are served without any garnish or side. Makes the meal very basic. Definitely would not pay the full asking price

There was not much wrong with the food or service at Al Bacio. It's just that it was all rather ordinary. All a bit average! Nothing to differentiate between this and any other run of the mill Italian restaurant. But don't let that put you off if you are in the area . . . it was good enough.

My husband and I went to Al Bacio on a Sunday evening so it was very quiet as were all the city restaurants. The food was very good and plentiful. The staff are very friendly and Italian which pleased my husband as he is also Italian. We will definitely go there again.
