Having being brought up in Bolton myself and liking the Italian Cuisine and being married to a woman who like Italian food, I believe I know a few good restaurants in Bolton that Serve Italian dishes.
I will list a few and also point out the good and bad points for each one and where you can find these restaurants:
1) In first place is a little restaurant on the outskirts of Bolton which has changed it name a few time over the years but the food is excellent.
Toto Ristorante
Toto’s has also been known as San Roco too.
The food is 9/10.
The waiter are of italian origan.
The atmosphere is about 7/10 but it quiet if you need it to be.
Location is not to bad either on the edge of the coutryside with a few local pubs to visit after the restaurant. If you want to book this place you have to book at least a week in advance.
