Book a Table
Mancia Italian Restaurant in Hull
Come in for a plate of pasta and a glass of wine. Bring someone you’ve been meaning to catch up with, find a spot beneath the umbrellas and stay for one more spoonful of tiramisù.
Step in off Newland Avenue and look up. Colourful umbrellas hang overhead, little lights stretch across the ceiling and a painted volcano fills the wall beside the tables. Follow the wooden bar into the room and you’ll find cushioned seats tucked along the mural.
We like to start with something for the middle of the table. The mushroom arancini have a crisp golden shell, and the meatballs come with toasted bread for the last of the tomato sauce. Order a plate to pass around while everyone settles in and chooses a main.
The pasta we’d tell a friend to try.
If you’re torn between two dishes, we’d point you towards the casarecce. The ox cheek spends hours braising in red wine and tomato until it gives way to a fork. The little twists of pasta catch the sauce, with aged Parmesan grated over the top. If fish is more your thing, try the sea bass with roasted cherry tomatoes, capers and lemon butter.
Make time for a drink.
Start with a Limoncello Spritz for a little lemon and sparkle before dinner. If you prefer something alcohol-free, the Sicilian Lemon Fizz brings together fresh lemon, elderflower and mint. Our pick for after dinner is the Bronte: espresso, pistachio liqueur and a little vanilla vodka. It’s a lovely excuse to stay at the table a little longer.
Who’s coming with you?
Bring a friend you haven’t seen in ages, or make a date of it with a spritz and dinner for two. If the children are coming along, let them do the choosing. Our Piccoli Amici menu has mini Margherita and pepperoni pizzas, spaghetti with tomato and basil, and creamy chicken pasta. While they decide, there’s just enough time to settle the important question: who’s sharing the garlic bread?
