I've been here a few times. The restaurant seats about 40. It is part of a terrace of shops and restaurants, and the room is long and comparatively narrow. The decoration is good, and the staff are friendly and attentive without being overly so. It is a good idea to book because it is very popular locally. One reason for... More

On an Easter break to Liverpool from the boro and wanted to go to eat near to Antony gormley's another place. Found this restaurant on the Internet with good reviews so gave it a whirl.

I had heard mixed reviews of the Fat Italian so I wasn't sure what to expect. However, I was very pleasantly surprised. I went for the early evening special (where any pizza or pasta is £5.95 before 6:30), I had the salmon and samphire pasta and my friend had the fiesta chicken pasta. I expected to get a small portion... More

We had a lovely meal Saturday night. We had taken our mum and family for a birthday meal and everyone commented on how wonderful the food & service was. We have ate at this restaurant on numerous occasions now and have never been disappointed.
