    We were served very well and in good time to leave to see a performance at the Corn Exchange. We will definitely make a return visit in January 2025. Thank you very much.

    We were very impressed a very nice welcome on arrival we had a good table near the window. Service was excellent and we were soon served our drinks and shared starter. The mains were superb and we had coffees to Finnish. The Staff were friendly and efficient. We were very impressed and will visit again when in Cambridge.

    Booked for a of 8 party in September for Christmas Eve with a £10 person deposit with Prosecco on a special offer. Staff knew nothing of offer and claimed the deposit was to cover a glass of Prosecco but then proceeded to charge me anyway for the drinks. Service was slow and food was average for the price. Very disappointed but as the meal took 2 and half hours and we had Panto tickets for 3pm, had to just pay and run at 2.50pm. Was told if I come back in January I could get 50% of the main menu, I will not be going back! My advice is to get everything confirmed in writing before your visit and do not rely on any booking code!

    Have eaten here a few times and in the past it has been really good but this time the service was a little disorganised. Food came out way before the drinks and having ordered extra pancetta on one of the breakfasts ,I'm not sure that we actually got it as there seemed to be the same small amount on every plate.

    A lovely meal at Carluccio's in Cambridge. Friendly and professional service. Excellent chicken Milanese - lovely crispy breadcrumb coating - piping hot fries (crisp outside and fluffy inside as they should be). Good coffee (rich and strong) - and a delicious brownie with pistachio ice cream. The Giardiniera pasta was also (apparently) delicious. Pleasantly spacious dining area too with high ceilings so there's a gentle sound of background chatter from other diners without drowning out your own table's conversation. Thank you to all the team.

    Service was exceptional (Table 32 at 1330). Food excellent (Carbonara) perhaps a tad heavy on black pepper (which I enjoyed) Ambience as usual. A busy Saturday. Enjoyable Will book again. Thank you.

    We always have the same things: penne giardiniera and broccoli/lasagne and side salad followed by coffee. It's good! Lasagne was a bit cold this time, hence the 4 stars. Nice staff, nice atmosphere, reasonable price. We'll be back.

    The wine was on the pricey side and our Chicken Milanese was slightly overcooked but these minor blemishes were completely outweighed by the excellent service provided by all the staff.
