Italio

About Italio

Italio takes its inspiration from over 30 years of Italian dining, living and culture with roots lying deep in the Sicilian region of Palermo and a long history of family run Italian restaurants. The restaurant aims to provide a true modern Italian dining experience presenting the traditional rustic vibrancy of Italy within sleek and elegant surroundings. It opened in October 2014 in what was formerly the HSBC Bank on the corner of Blackpool, Lytham and Highfield roads. Italio seats 40 and offers diners a menu that has been carefully selected to offer a varied selection of some of the many delights of the Mediterranean. All of the dishes are traditional family recipes used in the family restaurants, which include Nunzio's in Blackpool -- for many years. With the open kitchen and pizza oven, diners are sure to get a show and a true glimpse of Italian cuisine in its full glory. Italio is also very kid-friendly with small portions and small pizzas available, gluten free options and is now open for lunch and brunch. You can also indulge in an Italian cocktail or a drink from the extensive bar selection and all the tables have ice buckets built in for beer, wine or Greygoose vodka plus a new outdoor area is in the works. Italio was also awarded Radio Wave's Culture award for best fine dining restaurant.
