Ask Restaurants

We loved our food! We wanted to eat Italian food in the heart of Lincoln. So, we decided to try Ask Italian. It is super great. The staff are very friendly and the service is amazing. We sat upstairs by the window. The view was stunning.

As a lone diner, I sadly wasn't made to feel that most welcome. My food was nice, very warm - the pasta was slightly undercooked and sloppy in places. while busy they weren't that busy and I expected the staff to be slight more attentive. They missed out on a drink refill as I could flag down a staff member.

Amazing food and good energizing vibes, went there on the Euro 2020 England vs Germany day and it was absolutely refreshing with a very friendly staff that started off with a welcome pink lemonade drink. We had many plates at the day and I loved them all, my favorite out of which was the purple basil pesto pasta very rich in flavor and very fresh i think they may be making their own pasta dough that really awakens all your senses from the presentation till you dive in the veggie, herbal, pine nutty, pesto classical yet rebellious nature of this dish. I also fell in love with the Mushroom Al Forno starter that had a bit of creaminess in the texture with the mozzarella, riserva cheese, garlic mayo yet balanced with the breadcrumbs. Even for the “Pollo E Funghi”pizza, i believe this may be the best pizza I have had in the UK, the dough is so crunchy thin and fresh and same are all the ingredients. For desserts, The menu mentioned that Chocolate Etna is a customer’s favorite and it was good but it didn’t really amaze me unlike the chocolate gnocchi which had a creamy nutella filling and a rich a bit bitter chocolate dip to balance out every bite.

What an unexpected surprise. I've not been here for a very long time, and now a regret it. I wish I'd gone back sooner. Firstly, I'll waitress Imogen was amazing and we asked for recommendations which she loved and recommended the calazoni and a pasta dish. We had the pasta dish, the manzo then my partner decided to have a pizza stormboli with added salami and pancetta. The manzo was full of flavour ,so delicious, stormboli at the extra toppings my partner said it was the best pizza he's ever had and he is the fussiest man. For side we just have some chips , roasting hot. Not greasy at all. Perfect size for side for 2. I have to say the service we received from Imogen was absolutely fantastic. Friendly, helpful. Great communication fun. Also second staff member very chatty talking to my partner but it's top again. Great communication and customer service. And on the way out my partner the fussiest man on earth complemented the man that made his pizza so well done to ask. Gutted on returning visit... We noticed a different chef in the kitchen, the one we had last time was sat having his break... But the meal was ok just not as good. We had the same meal my manzo wasn't as tasty something was missing... in comparison to the last picture think it was the sauce... I'm no chef so I can't tell you, The overall meal was ok I would return on the first visit alone, This was my daughter's first visit sadly she wouldn't return.

Very good, here on a trip after singing in Lincoln Cathedral, good service and good food, the pasta is very good but the portions are moderately sized.Food: 4/5

Quick evening meal in late February.....still fairly busy, did good quality, sensibly priced food. Good value cocktail and wine list. Staff were extremely efficient and friendly.

Me and my now fiancee went for a meal on Saturday and enjoyed all of our food which was calamari and cheese fondu for starters then went onto a carbonara and spaghetti bolognes. Which we loved every bit and the service was the best never felt rushed to finish and pay and they made it a great place to propose.

Considering this is a part of a chain, it was a good pizza restaurant. The food was ok, the service was good and the surroundings very conducve to a nice evening which we had. They took covid seriously and sensibly. Thank you for a good evening out. Finally something that has nothing to do with Ask, but it made me smile I burnt my Hawaiian pizza the other night I should have put it on aloha temperature

Huge thank you to Danielle I'm sorry if I've got your name wrong who looked after us on my birthday. She went above and beyond and deserves the recognition and our gratitude - thank you again!

Really nice food, I would have liked more sauce with my ravioli, but not enough to mark down any stars! Didn't take a picture of pudding... It didn't last that long, it was delicious!!
