On a recent evening in Manchester, I had the pleasure of dining at Dom's Italia, and it proved to be a delightful experience. From the moment I arrived, the service was prompt and efficient, setting the tone for a wonderful meal.
I decided to try the veg pasta aglio-olio, and it did not disappoint. Served hot and in a generous portion, the pasta was cooked to perfection. Being a fan of spicy food, I requested it to be customized with an extra kick, and the kitchen did a fantastic job of accommodating my preference. The spice level was just right, enhancing the flavors without overwhelming them.
To complement my meal, I ordered a mojito, which turned out to be an excellent choice for the warm weather. It was refreshing and well-balanced, adding a nice touch to the overall dining experience.
For dessert, I opted for the chef's special coffee tiramisu. It was a standout dish, rich in coffee flavor without being overly sweet, which is a big plus in my book. The tiramisu had a perfect balance of textures and flavors, making it a satisfying end to a wonderful meal.
Another highlight of Dom's Italia is the view, which captivated me from the start. It added a charming and scenic backdrop to an already enjoyable dining experience.
Overall, my dinner at Dom's Italia was thoroughly enjoyable. The combination of excellent service, delicious food, and a refreshing mojito made for a memorable evening. The rich coffee flavor of the tiramisu was the perfect finish, and the stunning view only enhanced the experience. I look forward to returning on my next trip...
Read moreTook my girlfriend here for our date night and we weren’t disappointed whatsoever, firstly on arriving we were greeted by one of the lovely servers, he gracefully guided us to our table which was situated in a nice private area next to a window. I can’t get over the atmosphere in this place! romantic, cozy and authentic. The music playing at just the right level, the ambiance, the traditional Italian decor and feel! love love love.
Such a vast menu offering a wide array of delicious cuisine,we were stuck for choice. We ended up ordering :
Garlic bread with cheese - absolutely delicious and addictively moorish, crispy base, gooey stretchy cheese and a drizzle of olive oil, honestly stunning.
Bruschetta - simple but elegant, bursting with flavour and tasted so fresh.
Paccheri genovese - al dente pasta tubes with melt in your mouth slowly cooked beef, need I say more? this was an incredible dish, a blessing to my stomach, packed with divine flavour and texturally a masterpiece.
Spaghetti Carbonara - subtle but a delectable taste, creamy and decadent, definitely a must try
Sautéed Potatoes - the perfect little side order, garlicky, buttery and mouth-watering.
Overall Dom’s Italia left me and my girlfriend feeling over the moon with our choice for date night, the staff went above and beyond to make sure we felt as comfortable as possible and the service is like none other we’ve experienced at other businesses, if you don’t try this place you’d be doing a disservice to yourself and your tastebuds.
We will...
Read moreWent with a friend the other night to Dom's and ordered the Chicken Milanese and the menu nor the staff failed to notify that the dish might contain fresh chilli or garlic. I subsequently had severe stomach pain and cramps for nearly 2 days. I rang the restaurant the very next morning and very, very politely enquired to confirm whether it did contain these ingredients and was immediately met with hostility and a very feisty Italian manager. He wasn't sorry or even in any way apologetic for the amount of pain and discomfort I was clearly in. He admitted the pasta sauce contained garlic and fresh chilli but offered no compensation or any form of refund for this matter. When you spend nearly £70 pounds this is not the service you should get either through food or verbal communication. As someone who worked in hospitality and now in media, I think I'm absolutely right about this. He proceeded to blame the customer for not asking or specifying an intolerance when the menu should have thoroughly stated the ingredients for the dish and the waiters/waitresses should have asked. Instead they behaved like robots with no warmness or friendliness to even ask how we were and how our evening was. Very poor all around. The customer is always right, a shame they don't appreciate the paying customer and their...
