Have visited drop bar previously and has always been an enjoyable evening .booked for a Tuesday evening but didn't feel customer service was at good this time. Ordered hench box. Previously staff have given advice re food .I'd expect to be told about the 50% offer & to be asked re allergies etc. Food and drinks arrived. Prosecco in small bottles but had to call staff back to open the bottles as too hard to open .we didnt see staff again , no one asked if meal was ok or if we wanted more drinks etc We then asked staff for desserts and coffees but were told they were closing .at no point were we warned they were about to close or asked if we wanted the bill. When we asked for the bill we were told to go to the counter to pay even though we'd not seen a bill .service charge had been added however this was removed as we felt that customer service had been poor We

Was there Friday night. Everything was perfect.

Attended the drop cafe for a 66th birthday meal. Had a table of 10 + 8 booked so was seated in the outside area which was suitable. What was disappointing was there was no fish or prawns in stock at all but they explained that there delivery didn’t come. But after ordering and the birthday person ordering their food which was lambchops. After serving most the food out his was last and they then came to tell us they ran out of lambchops, so the birthday person waited over a hour for food and then didn’t get what they ordered. I would expect somewhere to make sure they have enough food in stock especially with having booked for essentially 18 people and they still had walk ins. They did waiver the cost of his food and the cost of any food that came out too late to be eaten. We have to praise the girl that was working and taking orders and serving us as she did her absolute best to really accommodate the group and was apologetic about the situation. She is definitely a credit to the restaurant. The food was of good quality, it was just a shame of how the food stock situation played out.

Fantastic food. Lovely staff. Service was really fast. Food is so tasty and the portions are big. We had 50% for January so was a bargain.

Always enjoy coming to the rising moon for food. Book our table online to stop us been disappointed if its busy. Greeted with a smile. always kepted informed about waiting time's for the table. Got a drink while we waited to be seated. Once we sat down given time to look at the menu and decide what we want. You can smell the amazing cooking aroma in the air. Our meal was so well presented and tasted gorgeous arrived on a massive plate and full. Left with a full tummy and happy.

Great food and service. Friendly staff, clean, and good value.

Food was beautiful and service was lovely :)

Booked a table for my Son’s 18th Birthday with family. Food was lovely, but the star of the show was definitely our server Gee! She was really helpful with any queries we had regarding the menu, fantastic with my Son (Jimmy), had us in stitches and just made the whole evening a great experience. Absolute asset to The Rising Moon! Jimmy said thanks aswell, you made his night!

This is our 4th visit to Sorella. Food as always was amazing . Staff were friendly and helpful. We will definitely be visiting Sorella again.

Great food and service. Relaxed and comfortable atmosphere at a reasonable price well recommended all around.

Booked a table for a special birthday. Arrived early and staff were very helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Lovely food and very generous portions. Family friendly and very welcoming. Thank you

Fabulous afternoon with family food was great no complaints at all . Will be back !

Great traditional pub with good atmosphere, our favourite. Salt and pepper chicken wings are best on the planet

Excellent vibe; we were there on band night and had a lovely time. Can recommend the daily stew.

Great food! Highly recommend.

We only knew L'Aquila site from being a pub many years ago as I grew up in Prestwich. However, when we found that it was now an Italian and it was near my Mum's it was a perfect choice to have a small 80th birthday meal. It was a Tuesday so not too busy and the lovely young lady who greeted us gave us the choice where to sit. There were plenty of other people in there but it was still wasn't over noisy and the music level was perfect to have a nice conversation. The decor and fit out of the restaurant is lovely and extremely clean. The front of house team working that evening was extremely polite, fast serving, not to intrusive and were always doing something whether it be serving other customers or cleaning/tidying. We ordered multiple course including a special of the day and the food was on point. My Mum who's favourite food is Italian said it was better than any Italian she had been to in the city centre and said she would definitely come back. I always love a garlic bread with cheese, but having the half tomato/half cheese option was the dream. Even though I hadn't said it was my Mum's birthday the staff obviously noticed she was wearing a birthday badge and brought out her dessert with "Happy Birthday" in chocolate piped on it with candles. They then sang to her. This dessert was then taken off our final bill as a gift. She was extremely happy as were we on the overall experience. I would recommend here over any other Italian (we've been to a lot). It's also great of it's location if you don't want to or can't get to a larger city. Keep up the amazing work and kudos to all the back of house team who without the food would not be what it is.
