Reviews in Lytham

First time at Novello in Lytham after a recommendation from a friend and we were very impressed. Italian food on the Fylde can be a little bit samey but the menu here offers some really interesting choices that you won’t find anywhere else. We both had the lovely open ravioli in a lobster bisque to start followed by risotto (smoked haddock for me and wild mushroom for my son). The selection of wines is excellent too, ranging right up to iconic names like Sassicaia and Tignanello. We chose a delicious Chianti. The ambience is very pleasant; less hectic but with a more upmarket feel than most other restaurants in Lytham.

A late night lads’ curry after a circuit of Lytham’s finest hostelries. Mohshina’s hit the spot and for the first time ever one of the boys ventured beyond Chicken Tikka Massala. It’s a very small and intimate venue and the bossman is a good laugh. I had their ‘special’ which was very spicy and did the trick. Recommended.

First time here downstairs at Portofino since their recent mini-makeover and it’s looking good. My colleague had recommended the chicken livers as the best around so I started with that followed by some surf and turf combination. Food was good and for such a successful and well-established business it’s nice to see the boss Orlando still heavily involved and not just taking a back seat.

I have visited Whispers on a number of occasions, for a meal or just for a coffee and sandwich. I have found the food very good, reasonably priced and the service excellent.

I travel all the way from Manchester just to get a kebab from here, by far the BEST take away I've ever ever had.

We were at a wedding on the 25th October 2014 and have to say everything the venue, meal, and the staff were fantastic to all. Thank you Fylde Rugby Club Lytham.

Our party of 16 were extremely well catered for at Portofino last friday. We were upstairs in an alcove of our own. Food was very good as was the service from our team of secret service operatives (all had ear pieces I assume linked them to the kitchen-very misson impossible!). This is the 3rd year we have booked and will do again.

Excellent chicken tikka massala for the price. I would of course expect better in an Indian restaurant. However for a quick meal to soak up the very good beer, it certainly did the trick. My friend enjoyed his steak sandwich too.

Had a fantastic meal saturday night with family and friends. Couldn't fault the food or ambience. Couple of waiters a little po faced but our waiter Ernie, more than made up. Service was slick despite it being a busy night, we will certainly be back.

First impressions were poor, young girl with no idea of customer service. No hello or thanks etc. She wrapped the chips them left them hanging about for the fish. Chips were crusty and the fish was a big piece of batter with a small bit of dry fish inside. It was a 7.30pm, assume they were winding down, but is that a good excuse? Think not.

Had a lovely lunch at the Lowther Cafe yesterday. It's always packed which sums it up quite well really...

Brilliant, recommend a visit to this cafe / resturant. Consistent excellent quality food. Staff are always polite, efficient and their service is quick, but thorough. Any requests are met if they can. If you are in lytham make sure you visit.

Second visit to Spago and had another great night. What I hadn’t realised was that this place has so many different areas, each of which has its own particular vibe going on. There’s outside dining areas at the front to watch the world go by and in a private courtyard at the back, tables near the open kitchen, a big bar area, a section with booths, a large table in the window and a big round table at the back which would be great for a group.

Thank you Spago for a lovely lunch. Everything was just perfect.

Just had a breakfast, it was awful. The plates were cold the toast was stale the poached eggs weren't cooked. We sent them back and the meal wasn't any better. The bacon was smoked which wasn't specified on the menu and the food quality overall was substandard. The laugh of it was that the sausages are so small they are cut in half to fill the plate.

Have heard mixed reviews about Spago since it opened recently in Lytham but on the evidence of our visit on Friday it may just have been the usual teething problems when you open a new venue. We had a great night with a lovely table in the window that looked out onto Henry Street and the square. Our waiter was friendly and very much on the ball and then menu is quite substantial with lots of interesting choices. Food was good, prices were very reasonable and it’s a smart looking venue with a buzzy vibe. Recommended and we will be back soon.

Very average food a bit disappointed to be honest. I was expecting some good food like back home in Washington DC, however it was nothing like it. Being a Yank I would say they could do with getting some real American meals on the table maybe watch a little Man vs Food for ideas and some better US BEERS " just saying" overall I would give it a 5/10. Thanks.

Sunday fish and chips were good. Ruddles was as good as ever and my wife enjoyed her chicken on a skewer. The best place for a cheap eat with good beer in Lytham.
