We loved our food! We wanted to eat Italian food in the heart of Lincoln. So, we decided to try Ask Italian. It is super great. The staff are very friendly and the service is amazing. We sat upstairs by the window. The view was stunning.

L. L.

Fabulous food and fabulous polite friendly service. Definitely coming again. Came back and the service was even better. Impeccable despite have lots of large parties. Food was delicious and served quickly. Outstanding.

Excellent quality and really good service enjoyed our meal

D. K.

Nice, simple food well cooked. Lovely fresh bread and good olive oil, no cheap rubbish. Only down is the dips you order don't arrive but you will be billed for them.

L. C.

Our server Katie went above and beyond for us. Absolutely fantastic meal and service. Thank you.

J. D.

We were a group of four adults and two children visiting ASK for the first time after the New Theatre Royal panto matinée on 29 December 2018. The welcome was warm, the service and staff friendly and helpful and the food delicious. Thank you for having us!

J. H.

We loved our authentic Italian type meals I tried the pea mousse which is the new spring addition to the menu, it was delectable, for my main I had a red pesto and pine nut tagetelli, it had an edible purple flower on the top, wow!

M. B.

A little wait for food, also some of the order was forgotten. However, staff friendly and missing food was with us promptly. Food delicious, especially the garlic bread! A little pricey, but that's the way it goes.

L. B.

Really nice food, I would have liked more sauce with my ravioli, but not enough to mark down any stars! Didn't take a picture of pudding... It didn't last that long, it was delicious!!

S. M.

Such a lovely meal, haven't ate here in years and didn't disappoint! 🙂

T. Y.

It was good food, garlic bread was really good. Apparently they don't do any meerkat meals or anything in December, not to worry. Restaurant was a bit too warm for me, not sure why...!

D. V.

The service is amazing and the food is great. Highly recommended place to go and eat. Amazing service from the waiter and waitress, had a really lovely evening dining out.

J. G.

I've eaten here around 5 or 6 times and I've always found the staff to be lovely and friendly and make that extra bit of effort to chat to you even though they don't need to in a popular chain like ask. The is also great and there's often a discount voucher available.

L. W.

Lovely food, brilliant service

W. S.

I've been here twice and both times the service was shockingly slow! Waited for almost an hour for our food to arrive even though it wasn't that busy. Everyone seemed to be moving at half speed in there. Even though the food was okay, I would prefer to eat somewhere else.

A. C.

Good food but quite pricey for what it is. Excellent customer service.

R. A. C.

Food was great. Pizza and pasta were excellent especially for the price. Restaurant ambiance is very pleasant and service is excellent.

a. c.

The service and the food was absolutely fantastic. If we come to Lincoln again we will definitely go back.

M. M.

Excellent food at an excellent price with fantastic staff. Will go back when next in Lincoln.

A. B.

Excellent venue, great staff, Nikki helpful/attentive waitressing, & great welcome. The food is fantastic, best Calzone ever! Hot & spicey. Tried the desert "Rhubarb, pink ravioli & custard"-incredible! Good social distancing arrangements in place. Highly reccomended, close to a multistorey car park on "Lucy Tower street", shops & town 10min walk away. Brilliant.

P. S.

A good choice of tasty Italian food. Very attentive and efficient wait staff.

C. D.

Food at Ask is always great, but not able to use Tesco Clubcard vouchers anymore, and some menu items not available

M. A.

Great food everytime! Fresh olives and delicious merlot with vegan pizza . They got it all going here!!

H. H.

It's been a while since we went to Ask but will definitely be back, such lovely waiters, fabulous food especially the lasagna and scrummy sweets. Perfect evening

A. J.

Good location and decor, with responsive and pleasant staff. The food was somewhat lacking, relatively bland and lacking in some areas. For example a side of cheesy chips with mayo was over priced for almost no cheese. Bit of a let down.

D. B.

Fantastic service. Seated immediately and the manager (short haired lady) was fantastic! Not eaten yet, will update when we have! Photos to come!

C. H.

Visited the Lincoln restaurant on a hot Saturday afternoon. Meal was superb and facilities excellent. Our waitress Kasia was brilliant so helpful and nothing to much trouble she is a credit to the place thankyou

L. H.

Fabulous service and lovely vegan pasta! Tasty and not bland, which is sometimes an issue for us vegetarians. 5*

B. P.

Friendly staff, nice selection on the menu. Service was not fast but it was ok for a relaxing meal.

K. M.

Good food, took ages to get though as very busy. However staff apologetic and amended our bill x

J. M.

Had a meal here with family on my wedding anniversary last October. My daughter mentioned to the waitress that we were celebrating the event and when I received my desert it was beautifully presented. See photo below. Thank you Ask for the lovely surprise.

E. G.

OK so here I am at Ask Italian enjoying my Christmas meal with 8 of my friends and 11 days into #noWHAMdecember they start banging out Last Christmas by the aforementioned WHAM. Dissapointed by this after I tried very hard to avoid the Whammagedeon. The atmosphere was very Italian much to the names expectations, but when I went to Italy* I wasn't allowed to pay in the English money and left without my wallet and trousers. This experience was not recreated here which made me lose some immersion. Anyway I digress, food was great and staff very friendly and great value. 10/10. *Actually Hatfield, Old Cantley, Doncaster, DN7 6DS

L. W.

L. M.

Good food superb company. Yes we will be back .Good staff was looked after.

The food's really nice and the service was good but it's pretty busy there & it's expensive. If you fancy splashing out now and then it's definitely worth a visit.

I. G.

Great food, lovely staff will definitely visit again.

G. H.

Great experience and great food! The waiter was a star and all in all we had a great time here. Whenever we are in Lincoln again, this is the first place we will make a stop at.

S. H.

Had a really good tasty pizza and cocktail. We were the last customers in at night and the staff were as friendly and helpful and f7n as if we were the first customers.

f. K.

Food was delicious well cooked & plenty of variety service was excellent, the setting by Brayford Pool was lovely too. Highly recommend this Restaurant

G. W.

Brilliant service every time I visit and the new refurb brings new life to the already amazing restaurant! Perfect and only on the waterfront so you enjoy a lovely Italian meal while observing the lovely Brayford!

D. M.

Nice dining experience although a little stingy on where they sit you if you're a couple rather than a large group. Had to ask to be moved away from a service door when the entire place was empty.

D. B.

Great food, overly expensive soft drinks though.

E. M.

Great lunch spot, varied menu with new season dishes. Staff were friendly and approachable. We got to try the new lemonade with lunch!

A. S.

Still a great place to dine out. Been many times since moving to Lincoln. Food has always been tasty, in an ideal location on the brayford waterfront. Great service from the waitress who served us, pleasant and willing to strike up a conversation. Nice choice of non-alcoholic drinks/cocktails which was nice. Thoroughly recommend the N'Duja Bites and the From Calabria with Love pizza if available.

J.

Had a lovely meal for my birthday there. Superb food and great environment

P. P.

Nice place to eat and friendly staff.

R. W.

A vibrant place mostly frequented by students at the weekend which makes it busy with the associated slow down in service. Reasonably priced, good food and would recommend.

B. A.

Nice people, good atmosphere, limited choice if not into pizza

Good food and good service, especially as we turned up late and a small number of us wanted pudding after they had closed.

P. P.

The food was nice but typical of a chain restaurant, the staff were friendly and the service was good

M. B.

Good food. But waiter forgot to bring some of our food out, needed to ask twice.

P. J.

Food was alright but not to write home about. Large roughly sliced chunks of red onion in a salad that hadn't been blanched. Most annoyingly the staff were clattering around with gay abandon making a lot of noise in the counter area throwing handfuls of cutlery into containers. Chose your table carefully!

E. L.

Had a great family lunch here today. Great food and service, very friendly staff

T. C.

Good location, good quality food freshly cooked, and excellent service. An excellent dining experience.

B. T.

Very friendly and professional staff Great food

N. C.

Service was very swift and friendly, which is even more remarkable given that they were short-staffed. Food and cocktails presentation was lovely. In terms of taste, food was ok but nothing to write home about. It could have just been what I ordered though, or they might have been having an off day. I have had absolutely delicious meals here in the past.

R. H.

Felt really safe. Food was delicious and the staff were great.

P. W.

k. s.

What an unexpected surprise. I've not been here for a very long time, and now a regret it. I wish I'd gone back sooner. Firstly, I'll waitress Imogen was amazing and we asked for recommendations which she loved and recommended the calazoni and a pasta dish. We had the pasta dish, the manzo then my partner decided to have a pizza stormboli with added salami and pancetta. The manzo was full of flavour ,so delicious, stormboli at the extra toppings my partner said it was the best pizza he's ever had and he is the fussiest man. For side we just have some chips , roasting hot. Not greasy at all. Perfect size for side for 2. I have to say the service we received from Imogen was absolutely fantastic. Friendly, helpful. Great communication fun. Also second staff member very chatty talking to my partner but it's top again. Great communication and customer service. And on the way out my partner the fussiest man on earth complemented the man that made his pizza so well done to ask.

J. (.

One of the better chain Italian restaurants, pleasant decor and friendly staff.

S. W.

Chain Italian restaurant on the Brayford Pool. We went with a group of 9 for a work night out and while the food was good, the service was very slow.

Food is usually lovely, though disappointed on this occasion,..hence only 4 star

K. D. (.

Really lovely food and helpful staff. The calzone was lovely and they made to order minus the chillis for me. I was little late at arriving and my friends had ordered for me. The staff came over to offer to reheat my food when I arrived. Oh and the marshmallow cone dessert was out of this world!!! Only small drawback was the door lets in quite a lot of cold when its opened (quite a problem as lincoln is especially bad for gale force winds) and some of the tables are really close to the door. However, it was a really pleasant experience overall, will be going again and would recommend.

A. C.

There are 3 Italian style restaurants to choose from along the waterfront. This is by far the best one! The staff were so friendly! They couldn't do enough to be helpful and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious and we were REALLY impressed with the quality. You can tell that the ingredients have been well thought through and we LOVED that the kids meal has options like FRESH orange juice and a SUGAR FREE ice lolly for desert. So many places only have high sugar options for kids, which is so bad for them. We will definitely come again and this 100% deserves 5/5 stars in every single way! 3 very happy, full customers. Thank you!

W. E.

As a lone diner, I sadly wasn't made to feel that most welcome. My food was nice, very warm - the pasta was slightly undercooked and sloppy in places. while busy they weren't that busy and I expected the staff to be slight more attentive. They missed out on a drink refill as I could flag down a staff member.

Went last Saturday, nice weather so we sat outside. All the staff your great, attentive and chatty. Food was great, thoroughly enjoyed it. The only issue was that there was a limited selection of wine. Not all the reds listed were available due to delivery issues and probably brexit, so it's not down to the restaurant. Either way, I would merrily return.

D. M.

Absolutely fantastic service, Jade was very attentive and the other guy who served us (I'm sorry, I can't remember your name) was bubbly and happy and had great but very tasteful banter - he read the group well. They were also very accommodating, I am annoying when it comes to dessert as I'd rather have a starter and this was no issue! Only lost a star because we had to sit outside, even though inside was almost empty and no one arrived during our stay. Bar that, food was great, and our waiter and Jade were fab! Thanks :)

D. G.

Quick service and lovely food

J. N.

The food it good and the restaurant is in a lovely place. There is a large car park just next to the restaurant so very convenient. The staff was nice, but a bit slow. It was a busy Friday so one could understand it, but it took them over half an hour to bring us water. But I recommend if you like Italian food.

S. F.

Forever my favourite restaurant, great service. Lovely food! Always excellent

E. w.

Lovely meal and staff are always happy to help.. I've been several times and never had a bad experience.. the staff were always happy to bring a bottle of water for the table also.

M. S.

Very nice location by the waterfront and next to the car park. Plenty of tables outside but a little confusing regarding check in procedure. Once seated we were invited to use the camera on our phone to order and pay but alas this didn't work correctly do we ordered via the waitress and paid by machine. Food selection is good but both our dishes were a little undercooked. Otherwise a pleasant visit.

J. W.

So I decided to venture out of Telford as all the restaurants around here are boring and we stumbled Upton ask Italian in Lincoln the views we’re absolutely outstanding and the service was to die for. I can’t remember the ladies name but I think it was Jade and she restored my faith in ask Italian as I’ve been to the restaurant in Shrewsbury and it as diabolical. The food here was like heaven on a plate I 100% recommended this restaurant and if your lucky enough to have Jade as your waiter your in for a treat she even brought me over the garlic mayo 😍 Anyway I’m rambling on abs my husband shouts at me for it so why are you still reading this get yourself down there. Many thanks the fat guy Jordan

N. A.

Amazing food and good energizing vibes, went there on the Euro 2020 England vs Germany day and it was absolutely refreshing with a very friendly staff that started off with a welcome pink lemonade drink. We had many plates at the day and I loved them all, my favorite out of which was the purple basil pesto pasta very rich in flavor and very fresh (i think they may be making their own pasta dough) that really awakens all your senses from the presentation till you dive in the veggie, herbal, pine nutty, pesto classical yet rebellious nature of this dish. I also fell in love with the Mushroom Al Forno starter that had a bit of creaminess in the texture with the mozzarella, riserva cheese, garlic mayo yet balanced with the breadcrumbs. Even for the “Pollo E Funghi”pizza, i believe this may be the best pizza I have had in the UK, the dough is so crunchy thin and fresh and same are all the ingredients. For desserts, The menu mentioned that Chocolate Etna is a customer’s favorite and it was good but it didn’t really amaze me unlike the chocolate gnocchi which had a creamy nutella filling and a rich a bit bitter chocolate dip to balance out every bite.

Service slow. There were 9 of us so tip was automatically added to bill. We asked for it to be removed but it was added again later without our permission. They had run out of quite a few items. Food good.

We came to Ask Italian at peak time on a Friday night and they managed to fit in our table of 5 including my disabled parents. They couldn't have been better at making us feel welcome. The food was lovely, and the service was excellent.

M. T.

Great food and helpful staff. Will recommend to friends.

My Grandaughters favourite. Went for her 10th Birthday. Staff made her feel very special. Due to her Coeliac has to be Gluten Free, they have a good choice. We all had a good meal . Great staff made us all very welcome. Very enjoyable. Well done Ask in Lincoln.

j. B.

We enjoyed the food, ambience, friendly staff. Fabulous position on the wharf. In fact we enjoyed it do much we went back the next evening too. Thoroughly recommend it.

K. G.

Lovely meal with my partner, amazing food, fantastic service & Jacob went the extra mile with his knowledge as my partner is fussy about food. We will be back.

K. K.

Always a great place for an afternoon or evening dinner. Would 100% recommend, as the food tastes absolutely amazing with a variety of vegetarian and vegan dishes and absolutely friendly staff contributing altogether towards a great true Italian atmosphere

L. N. (.

Great food as always, service is okay, but no major complaints

S. M.

Just been delivered food from deliveroo, pizza had no sauce very very dry what little ingredients on that pizza was all placed in the middle! Calamari cold and rubbery, chips soggy and cold. Formaggi fritti hollow. And to top it all off it took over an hour to be delivered. Over £50 spent on this I am not happy and I will be posting on my Google review account too!! Not even worth 1 star Update I've called and they have been very sorry and listened to what I had to say which I really appreciate, so thank you.

L. W.

Four of us ate here yesterday and thought we would take advantage of the 'eat out to help out' incentive. So pleased we chose Ask as the service was excellent and the food was delicious. We could not have asked for better. My partner is very picky with food and he thoroughly enjoyed it. 10/10 from us. Thank you to the staff, who are friendly, smiley and actually look happy to be there. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough.

S. C.

Standard Ask Italian restaurant.(standard menu as well) Decent enough atmosphere,not too loud. The food and service was outstanding, we really enjoyed it. No waiting,polite service and not in your face. Drinks are on the expensive side though. Not much of a view,it's opposite Wagammas and that blocks out views of Brayford Wharf. But straight out of the door and you are on Brayford Wharf.

B. H.

Went here a couple weeks ago for lunch. Service with a smile was lovely but maybe just tone it down as it can be really in your face. Food on the other hand was excellent. In terms of food I had the chicken snitzel and .y partner had a chicken salad. Can confirm the chicken salad here is really good compared to prezzo next door that has the salad making skills of a chocolate teapot. Recommend this place over them.

M. C.

Fabulous dessert and drinks,not over priced.very clean and staff very efficient.will certainly go again.

D. H.

Good food, nice atmosphere. Toilets are a bit of a trek up a tall spiral staircase. Good service and social distancing/sanitising. If you like Italian food you should go here.

S. M.

Very nice restaurant, the staff are really friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. I had the Salmon and my taste buds where dancing. Highly recommended.

V. C.

Staff were so friendly from the second we stepped in to the restaurant. Really attractive interior, and generally a nice experience. I personally wasn't blown away by the food, my calamari was actually pointless, flavourless, measly, and floppy! The dough sticks were tough and chewy, however, my partner said it was the best calzone he has ever had and I really enjoyed the other aspects of my platter, so this, alone with the service, would draw us to go back in future.

d. s.

We celebrated my nieces 14th birthday at Ask recently, the service was 10/10, it was the best restaurant experience I have had in a long time. Not only was the food out quick (table of nine) it was piping hot and delicious. The waitress also remembered who was having what which was a nice touch. Most definitely recommend

R. A.

Delicious food, welcoming staff

J. W.

Although there was quite a wait for our food, the service was brilliant, the staff were lovely and the food was beyond amazing, so it made the waiting irrelevant. Absolutely loved my first ever ASK experience.

M. A.

Fabulous!! they give you a free yes! free! "starter drink" then u can order ya food and drinks as normal....at the moment it's all outdoor seating cause of the covid situation.....but they ask you for contact details etc and have u booked etc..... when I came here with my mum.... there was only a 30 minutes wait time for food..... failing that..... very nice service from a posh restaurant! N very tasty food!! 😉👍

j. k.

Walked in and being ceoliac I'm always abit on edge eating out 1st question was how many people and 2nd question was there any Allergens told them of my situation and they gave me a gluten free menu no stress and I could eat anything on the menu...I wish more restaurants was like this! Staff was very nice and we felt welcomed I had a gluten-free pizza and it was a solid 10 out of 10 the daughter loved her meal aswell my wife wasn't in the mood for Italian but the daughter wanted pasta she said her carbanara was bland and tasteless but to be fair she is hormonaly pregnant so her verdict is pretty void 😂😂 would definitely eat hear again and the price was very reasonable for the quality

T. W.

Service very good food up to the usual good standard and a wonderful location on the waterside. In my opinion the best of the Italian style eateries .

N. M.

Really nice staff in the Lincoln branch by the Marina. We stopped by spontaneously with no booking but front of house were really helpful and made us feel welcome while making sure covid measures were observed without making a big fuss like in other places. Wish I had remembered the servers name as he was really pleasant and genuine with a good sense of humour. Food was lovely aswell.

W. H.

Absolutely Fantastic food Just perfect The service we received from the staff was outstanding Katie was simply brilliant Nothing was to much trouble , a fantastic team member 👍 The manager even arranged a taxi home for us We had a fantastic night out Thank you so much

A. M. H.

The restaurant looks great and the food service is good, however the food is pretty basic for the price paid. The app ordering service is probably the best advantage of the restaurant, fast and easy to use.

C. D.

Very friendly service, food was excellent would go again

L. H.

Good choice on the menu for food and is reasonably priced. The view of the water is obscured by the huge Wagamama across the footpath, which is a shame. Dogs are allowed to sit outside in the seating area. Good drinks menu. Staff were pleasant but service was a tad slow. All in all is a nice place to eat.

K. W.

We have had a lovely meal tonight at Ask Italian in Lincoln. We had a party of 4, myself and my husband with our 2 children age 6 and 9 who are both fussy eaters. The food was amazing and both of our children ate all their meal. It was brilliant value and we had a lovely evening. We want to say a big 'thank you' to Yari Sikder who looked after us this evening. He taught our daughter Italian and made our evening enjoyable.

N. T.

Superb service, amazing food!

C. V.

I spent my birthday lunch here with my daughter and the Food and Service were exemplary! They even treated me to a free glass of bubbly!

M. E. G.

The staff were very friendly and supportive. I know the toilets are upstairs and I am not sure of the access for people who cannot get up there. We had pizzas which were so yummy (and the vegan options and menu is great!) and a pudding which was very difficult to choose because of how many great options there are (there are also vegan and gluten free options)

C.

Friendly welcome and super helpful staff. Food was excellent and a good choice of drinks. This place is now our go to for Italian.

E. A.

Really good service but food was far from nice, I think I could get better pasta from an instant pasta sachet

T. H.

Great food and atmosphere. Very good service. Loved the fresh lemonade as a table welcome. Freshly cooked pizza awesome

C. A.

First visit and found premises clean and tidy and staff helpful and friendly. Wife was quite happy with her main course but I was not impressed by mine. Pasta did not seem to be cooked very well and there was too much pasta and not much meat/filling. More filling for the pasta provided and the price would have been solution. Have had worse but there are better places.

A. E.

Free shot of homemade lemonade, which was delicious. Just the right amount of zing. The waitress had great knowledge on the menu and was speedy but without rushing us. The food was served within a good time frame. The food tasted incredible :)

V. H.

The best pizza I've ever had!! I chose the vegan pizza which had a pea puree rather than the usual tomato one and asked for it without any pepper. It came with one kind of pepper and the waiting staff were very apologetic and offered to get me a fresh one made, I was happy to remove them few bits of pepper so declined. It really was very tasty without the peppers, I loved it.

J. W.

Great food. Best Italian I have visited for a long time and the family all loved it too which is rare for everyone to agree on. Very polite staff and you don't feel rushed to eat and leave. Would definitely return next time I am back up in Lincolnshire.

S. B.

Fabulous. Wonderful service, friendly staff and delicious food. Will definitely be back. The seafood Linguine was out 9f this world.

H. W.

Booking a few days in advance for 9 people (teenagers) at 5.30 after failing to book any where else for a Saturday night, we came for a quick meal after the cinema and before our train later in the evening (7.00). Ordering pizzas, the food arrives within 10-15 minutes and was very good. The staff were friendly and I will definitely be booking there again.

G. P.

Not what we thought, a lot of things were off the menu and one of our sweets arrived burnt, not what you would have expected from these. All said staff were helpful and place was clean

A. A.

The staff were excellent and paid attention to my friend who was celebrating his birthday. Really enjoyable experience with delicious food, definitely would recommend going here!

B. H.

Really happy with our experience at this ASK Italian, the staff were the real highlight being very happy and smiley. From our first greeting to final goodbye from the floor manager, there was a little more conversation given than expected. We caught them just at the end of a large rush, however, food was still of great quality, staff seemed tired but this did not put them off providing great service.

H. S.

Lovely meal served by Ben who was very attentive

S. A.

On our first visit, we had thoroughly enjoyed a very tasty meal but this time the service was extremely slow for our mains and the flavours were not the same at all, even though we ordered the same tuscan bread salad for starters and salmon dish for the mains. However, the manager did come to apologise and deducted the mains from our bill. Lovely evening atmosphere and quite busy for a Tuesday!

L.

Very expensive for the quality. Barely any chicken in the dish I had, nearly all pasta & it was £11.75! Although the staff were polite, they weren't very attentive & service was pretty slow. It was at least 45 mins to an hour after the main course before we offered dessert, by which time we were almost ready to leave.

J. C.

Food very good; service very good; however staff took little interest in social distancing; and I really object to having a surcharge added to the bill for ‘service’. This is going to prevent me from returning; there are plenty of good restaurants that don’t adopt this policy!

C. C.

Food excellent as expected (the pizza dough alone is fantastic), all ingredients taste fresh, staff and service really very good. Can be a bit pricey but this isn't such a concern as they often have offers or vouchers available as well as being on tastecard (possibly others?). We were made to feel most welcome and will likely return at some point. Its also worth mentioning the staff seem to know the menu well, so if you are unsure of anything they can help you out :)

A. L.

Absolutely brilliant customer service, very popular place, tasty food and really gorgeous location on the waterfront. Plenty of vegan choices for our daughters boyfriend and even managed to get me a steak knife from an adjoining restaurant as I have difficulty with my hands and need a really sharp knife, even though they don't have that type of knife. What a star our server was.

K. A.

Always excellent. Nice variety of Italian dishes at sensible prices. Brayford pool has good atmosphere.

T. K.

Amazing food!can't go wrong with them! Staff and manager are so lively! Definitely recommende, great take away choices

D. H.

Lovely meal thankyou.. a little bit off putting when we're deciding on the menu.. and the lady on the next table leans over to tell us what we're reading..

D. M.

The food was brilliant especially their garlic bread and chips. The service was great I definitely recommend you visit if you can.

A. W.

Fabulous! Service with a smile, even though busy. Food was wonderful, bursting with flavours brushetta, small carbonara was not very small, salad was one of the best I've had, so full of colours and tastes. Finished off with a pear tart. The frangipani was subtle and the vanilla ice cream was creamy. Happy go again. Thank you. Great start to our weekend away. Oh we even got 20% off with a voucher.

E. T.

Great food and good service but highly disappointed as they no longer accept Tesco vouchers. I have been multiple times previously and they have accepted. Definitely took the shine off it for us and in future we'll go somewhere like Pizza Express or Zizzi who take them.

S. M.

Absolutely fantastic food service was above and beyond exceptional !! Thanks to Jamie and Jack will be returning every time we visit Lincoln Well done guys !!

R. A.

Friendly staff, kid friendly. The app didn't process payment properly sadly but easily sorted with the staff. A little hot in there so consider sitting outside.

B. T.

Booked a table for mother's Day as they had a really good 3 course menu with prosecco for under £20. The food was really good and our waitress was lovely but thats the only nice thing I can say about my experience. Waited 40mins for starter, mine was missing and had to wait another 20mins for it. My main course was missing and had to wait another 15 minutes for that. When we ordered dessert it took another 30 mins before they arrived and my daughter's was missing. They were really good about it and my meal ended up free. They were obviously overwhelmed with bookings and didn't have enough staff on. Would probably go again but not on mother's Day!!

c. b.

The food was tasty but service slow had to wait a while for drinks to arrive after the first round. The outside area lacked ambience in comparison to surrounding venues.

V. C.

Nice atmosphere and delightful staff. The food was delicious, and very filling, and the drinks were also really tasty, even though the selection wasn't extensive. They also gave me a taster of their craft lemonade, which was really nice!

P. O.

Ask has always been nice and reliable with a good menu option for people with Gluten free requirements. Atmosphere always welcoming and often visit here with the family. Car park near by is multi story.

T. H.

Good food, excellent service, friendly and polite staff. Re Covid, felt safe and well organised. Little bit pricey, but not so as we won't go back... we will and will recommend it to friends.

L.

The girl serving us did an excellent job, the food was well prepared. It's just a pity that it's about as authentic to Italian food as a hamburger is to traditional Japanese food. Stop putting rocket on anything that requires something green and salad like on it. The Italians would use something else like fresh basil instead of ruining it like that.

D. C.

Excellent service, really enjoyed the set menu, nice location. Highly recommended.

V. L.

Excellent meal served by a very friendly waitress.. Wish I'd got her name! There with my grandson and girlfriend at 1 p.m. Saturday 11th January. Will definitely go again and recommend highly.
