Booked a surprise meal for my Husband's 40th birthday, and was given the private area upstairs for my large party of 26 people. We had access to our own bar and we had our own music by connecting Bluetooth to their sound system. The whole event was made very special and, Mike and the staff really looked after us. The food was absolutely amazing, especially the desserts. Would highly recommend it if you want a large gathering for a special occasion.

Went to Inferno on Saturday for a birthday celebration. Were told our orders couldn't be taken immediately as kitchen was under pressure. Brought us some olives to be going on with. Orders were taken more than 45 mins after our booked time. When food came, the scallop starter had to go back as it was cold and they were tiny, certainly not 'King Scallops'. Main courses were OK but portion sizes had reduced dramatically since our last visit (which we enjoyed). We were offered free desserts but just wanted to get out. A bottle of wine was knocked off our bill but we did not get an apology from the owner. The waiting staff did their best. Will certainly not go back.

I visited Inferno on Saturday night and had an amazing experience. We had a lovely and polite waiter, Ewan, who was very helpful and attentive. The drinks menu was extensive and very fairly priced and when the drinks came they were presented excellently and tasted amazing. The food was fabulous, especially the lobster ravioli. I enjoyed my visit very much and me and my family left very happy. Will definitely be visiting again soon!

Nice place, but badly let down by a couple of things. My brie starter came with bread on the menu, but the bread didn't arrive. Not a problem, I just asked the waitress if she could please bring it and she said "did you order any?" I advised it came with bread on the menu so she went off, only to come back and tell me it did not!? (I can read, it definitely did. My friend had to confirm it to the waitress, it was all very bizarre and slightly pathetic, it was just bread!!!) Eventually, having had argue with her whilst my starter went cold she finally returned with two pathetically thin slices of bog standard baguette. Our mains were VERY nice (lobster ravioli and wild boar ragout) but again let down by penny pinching things. My friend ordered a side of garlic ciabatta and it was again a couple of tiny slices of shop bought baguette and a total rip off. My side salad was also incredibly stingy and cost over a fiver. Bread and salad has the biggest profit margin of any items in a restaurant so to be absurdly mean with either makes absolutely no sense! Also debating your customers over what's on your menu ( and being WRONG) whilst their food goes cold is just really poor. At £20+ a main course in Hinckley I sadly won't be returning, no problem paying that but I think it's fair to expect more from the experience than being irritated over totally avoidable nonsense.

It is with regret that my latest visit, last night with friends, was very disappointing. We were in a party so I can only speak for myself. I had Bruschetta to start: Bland, tasteless. The balsamic vinegar was drizzled lightly over the plate and not over the topping so had no effect on the taste. It was just like eating cold tomatoes on toast. Main course for me. Pollo Alla Divola. I've looked it up since and what I had bears no resemblance to what I was given. There was no spicy heat of chillies, no flavour of cayenne pepper and was so bland. The strips of red and orange peppers were overcooked and soggy, the tomato based sauce could have come out of a tin. The chicken breast was dry, tough and reminded me of a cheap supermarket standard. I have actually made the dish myself at home before, and I expected something better than mine. It was, for me, inedible.

So glad to have found this place on a special occasion, which was my wife's birthday. What an amazing discovery of this Italian restaurant. The staff were all friendly - I think the floor manager who kept looking out for us could be the owner and she was accommodative and in fact told us in advance that we can order child portion of the main menu.For starters we had mussels in spicy sauce - I have had mussels with distinctive smell but these mussels were cooked nicely where it doesnt have the strong mussels smell. We also had different italian bread with aioli and scallops, all of which we enjoyed.For mains, my son and I had ravioli, i had one made with lobster bisque and again it was amazing. the family ended up having mine! My wife had spiedini di pesce, she felt would have been nice if it had sauce rather than dry.And desert was a class. Both my kids had raspberry pavlovla and mango & passion ice cream cheesecake and boy both tasted yum!!!The staff brought the birthday cake for my wife and sang together which ended the night nicely.Highly recommend this place for the coziness, hospitality and quality of food.

We went for a meal here after seeing it had Italian, the food we got was lovely and I think we went on a prosecco night which was nice.The food was surprisingly good, really enjoyed it actually, it was really quiet in there which to be honest we expected as we eat super early compared to most.The only thing I would say is that the manager/staff were online shopping and on their phones at the bar and considering it was quiet we had to stand up to get their attention for the bill.Overall it was a good experience and we would return.

We recently visited Inferno for my daughter?s birthday. The staff were very accommodating to their food choices and were even able to make food for them which wasn?t on the menu. The food itself was amazing and well thoroughly enjoyed it. The waitresses were very attentive as was the manager. We had a fantastic night and will definitely be visiting again.Kid-friendliness: They made a dish that wasn?t on the menu and it wasn?t any trouble at all.

The standard of Hinckley restaurants continues to amaze! The level of restaurants continues to be very disappointing. 1 starter and 1 main not coming as described in the menu, apologies that the menu needs changing. Then print more! The cherry on the cake was the request for mayonnaise and a Aldi squeeze BOOTLE was deposited on our table. Having gone out for a nice couples meal. This is very disappointing. Unfortunately this seems to be the higher end of Hinckley?s eating establishments.

My husband and I had a very nice meal here. We were sat upstairs as we booked quite last minute. Food was very good, not your average Italian menu which made a nice change. Service was good and staff were attentive. Food portions were good and we even managed to squeeze in a pudding to share which was a lovely end to our meal.
