Top Best Italian Restaurants in Irlam

"Bella Italia might not seem like the most obvious choice for a bottomless brunch, but actually, their offer is pretty damn good. You get two courses and bottomless prosecco for £27.99pp, and you can take advantage of this offer every Friday to Sunday between 11:30 and 5. How about a bruschetta followed by a pizza, or a delightful pasta dish?"

"You must have been living under a rock if you haven't heard of Rudy's. The Neapolitan pizza masters only recently started doing takeaway (only collection at first) around lockdown, but we're so happy they're keeping it up - those queues and bookings out the wazoo at their Peter Street and Ancoats locations are impossible at times. They even started selling 'Bake at Home' kits, though you really need a proper oven to make it the way they do."

"Rudy’s is so good, it’s always a pleasant surprise when you get the bill and remember just how budget-friendly it really is. Pizza prices range from £6.30 – £10.50 (the more expensive options being the meatier ones!), and each pizza is bigger than the huge plate its served on. The value for money is incredible, particularly since it’s officially the best pizza in the UK, and the atmosphere is perfect for a catch-up with mates."

"Listed amongst the world’s best pizzerias in international pizza guide, Where To Eat Pizza, Rudy’s Pizza has grown from a pop-up project into a full blown word-of-mouth phenomenon."
