Fumo

Fumo was a great choice for our group of more than 65 people. The asked us to make our dining covers in advance which was a good idea. often for big groups the service is lacking, but Fumo did a great job of staffing our event. We had a private dining area on the second floor that was beautiful but we did not feel isolated.

Fabulous Italian restaurant within walking distance from Deansgate train station. We had a company event for circa 36 colleagues and were catered for on their upper floor, which we had to ourselves. They provided place names and our pre selected menu choices on all tables... it's the little things that matter. 😉😊👍

Webt for dinner for a friend's birthday, service was absolutely tremendous. Our waiter was brilliant, though I can't remember his name. The mixed grill meal was not up to par however for one of the group members; very small portion, not very diverse and was costing a fortune for nothing; it was around £30. Other meals were well prepared and flavouful throughout, from starter to main, every bite was glorious! Otherwise would recommend visiting.

Fumo has a great location in a busy street in town and is set back from the busy Oxford Road intersection. A nice entrance gives a great view of the bar which spans the rear of the restaurant with impressive mirror backing and lighting that shows off the high end spirits and the signature oversized bottles too. Beautiful marble decor with soft wooden accents and stunning lampshades resembling jelly fish give a nice atmosphere. Service is good and you can tell the wait staff try hard. The food is as you expect, we ate 2 courses which came to £30 per person including. Service Our order: Bruschetta Beetroot carpaccio Garlic bread starter Main dishes: Penne Arabiatta Calzone Tagliatelle, Ragu Everything was hot, tasted great and we had a bunch of empty plates. We ate at 6:30 on a Sunday when it was fairly quiet due to heavy rain.

Went with a big group of almost 30. We got the whole upstairs to ourselves. We pre ordered our food and they had put down name cards with what we have selected so everyone knew where they were sitting and what food we were getting. They were even flexible enough to add 3 late comers. The food was all tasty and well cooked.

We had dinner on a Saturday night at 18:30. Food was lovely, starters and mains were piping hot, we had two sides of fries but served flat on a plate so were lukewarm by the time they got to us. Desserts were lovely, the table next to us ordered a meringue based dessert as it look amazing!! We had to repeatedly ask for the water we ordered and the toilets were in need of cleaning despite being early in the night. Which was disappointing.
