De Niros Bar/restaurant - Tameside

The ambiance at this bustling restaurant is pleasant and the steaks are tasty. However, the quality and taste of other dishes leave something to be desired. In order to keep customers coming back, the restaurant needs to step up their game. During our visit on a work night out, the service was slow due to the high volume of customers. While it's important to have a full house, it's equally important to ensure that the food is of high quality to encourage repeat business.

Some of our party chose to order a smaller plate for their main meal, but when the food arrived on a plate more suitable for a 5-year-old, it was embarrassing. While I understand the desire to offer smaller portions, it would be more appropriate to serve them on adult-sized plates. The creme brulee dessert was a disaster, and we had to send it back. The bathroom toilet was damp, and one was out of order. The tables had a tacky appearance, as if they had been quickly painted instead of using proper dining tables. Overall, this restaurant has potential, but they need to focus on improving the smaller details, especially considering their higher prices compared to other establishments in the area.

My family and I went out for a midweek dinner to celebrate my son's 21st birthday. The restaurant wasn't too crowded, which was nice. The food and service were excellent. It is a bit expensive, but worth it for a special occasion or a special treat.

We had one of the best meals at an Italian restaurant we've had in a long while. Superb mussels in a white wine and cream sauce, superb house red wine, excellent choice of main courses. Staff attentive without being intrusive we managed our own wine glasses because we dislike the practice of refilling your glass so you buy another bottle. Home made truffles after our meal were delightful and very reasonably priced. It wasn't very busy which is shame as it deserves better. We will happily go back again and are equally happy to recommend it.

We booked a table for 12 people on Saturday night... ordered starters which had taken 45 minutes to arrive starters wasn't bad. However the main meals taken a further hour to arrive. I chosen the rib eye steak cooked medium, it arrived and it was rare. I sent the steak back and it arrived medium well, alongside the tiniest dish of veg I've ever seen in my life i.e. one piece of broccoli. Everyone in the party was really disheartened with the meals and this was meant to be a nice pre Mother's Day evening out. I spoken to the manager who actually was quite rude. With working in hospitality myself I said I understand that it could take long for meals to come out but surely not 45mins for a starter then a further hour for the mains once the plates had been cleared! Also if they wasn't so greedy to take in so many customers then we wouldn't have had this problem, as the chefs clearly couldn't cook the food in an average time. We did have a deduction on the bill, but it was the circumstance of it all, as the night was ruined. On the other hand, our waiter was really nice just the poor attitude of managers that wasn't! Stay well away!
