Food was perfect, the chef definitely saved the day on this visit to Giulianos as the dining experience was poor (due to elements outside the restaurant s control). Upon entering the restaurant we were offered three tables, two next to the door or one next to a booth next to a group of people. To note the restaurant was dead.
Soon after being seated the group next to us where clearly getting on it with one member of the group being what can only be described as a cackle hag. This pretty much ruined our visit to Giulianos with having to deal with the incessant overly loud cackling throughout the meal as our table was backed right onto the booth. We had already started dining when th cackling commenced.
When your restaurant is dead please just let the customer sit where they want. I can appreciate you want the restaurant to seem busier than it is by having people sit in the vicinity of the front windows but I purposely head out mid week when restaurants are generally quieter to avoid situations like this arising.
Service was average.

We had our daughter’s first birthday party here, we came to view the venue and told them we were looking to order pizzas from the restaurant and hire a small soft play in the corner for the babies, we were told this was no problem so went ahead and booked the room. The staff have been rude to us on the run up to the party, gave us the incorrect timings and on the evening before the party told us that there has been a misunderstanding and they don’t offer the room for parties usually and there will be a minimum spend of £700 which was never mentioned to us. Absolutely disgusted in the attitude of the staff and was rushed out of the room before the party had finished. Our soft play hire turned up and they were told that the soft play would be left outside in the rain if not collected on time. Guests that turned up 10 mins late to the party were told that they were late by the staff as they walked in. Many of our guests commented on the rudeness of staff, very disappointing as we enjoy the food at this place. Will not be returning and would not...
