The food was amazing, all 3 courses. The waitresses couldn't do enough to help. Lovely evening at Don Luigi
Great food and genuinely Italian. Our pizzas were wonderful. The restaurant was quiet when we visited but it was still warm and welcoming with lovely food and attentive service. Parking: Local car park a short walk from Don Luigi's.
Beautiful food, great service
Booked a table for 6 and by 7.30 they were looking to book another sitting in, waitress took no notice and felt squished and very rushed
Superb, Highly recommended
I was pleasantly surprised when I walked into this charming little restaurant with bags of atmosphere, open views to kitchen so you can watch your food being cooked and very friendly staff. The internal decor would best be described as trying to conjure up a rustic Italian village feel, so do not expect a glitzy interior, but the food was fabulous. Vegan options (plural!) were available and exciting - and tasted great! Highly recommend this place if you are in vicinity. 2 visit review - I revisited this restaurant in Dec. 2023. It was again a lovely experience. The meal was again excellent and the service was brilliant; very friendly and quick to help. We could watch the chef's in the kitchen preparing all the meals, which arrived in a good time after ordering. Definitely look forward to returning again in the future. Dietary restrictions: Vegan options were available and all are gorgeous to eat.
I have to admit that the food here was really good hearty Italian food but the waiting time was ridiculous. We had to ask the staff to take our orders as we'd been sat down on a small akward table, for way over half an hour without even ordering. The open kitchen is a nice idea but they haven't quite got the extraction right as I found it quite smokey which was irritating my eyes. And it wasn't just us that were getting aggravated by the wait times. Drama from the table next to us led to the customers being escorted out before even receiving their starters. There did seem to be a large party upstairs but if you can't cater for both the restaurant and functions, maybe you should focus on one or the other. Our bill was reduced slightly but it wasn't enough to make me want to rush back,to be honest we were too desperate to get out of there to debate the fact. Funny isn't it, because all it would have taken was some good customer service before hand, a warning that they were understaffed maybe, and an indication of longer waiting times than usual when we arrived. We then could have made the decision to stay or go elsewhere. As I pointed out earlier the food was great once it arrived and maybe we got really unlucky and they were just understaffed or something but non of the front of house staff seemed to know how to handle the situation so I certainly won't be returning in a hurry. If you are going to give it a go I would advise to ask about waiting times before you are seated. Vegetarian options: The vegan lasange was really tasty.
Lovely Italian restaurant, highly recommend. I'll be back at some point soon I hope
As good as it’s ever been! My family and I have lived in Culcheth for 30+ years, but hadn’t been to Don Luigi’s since Santos passed away. We wondered how it would now compare and we were delighted this evening that the food is as good as ever. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough - the lasagne was terrific. Mina and her team are doing a great job… we’ll be back soon!
