About
Vincenzo Trattoria is a family‑run Italian eatery located in the heart of Manchester, just a short walk from St Ann’s Square, Market Street, and Deansgate. Since opening in November 2019 in memory of Vincenzo La Colla, the restaurant has become a local favourite for authentic Italian cuisine, offering a menu of classic pizzas, pastas, and hearty main dishes made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The dining room is cosy and welcoming, with a relaxed atmosphere that makes it ideal for pre‑theatre meals, after‑shopping dinners, family lunches, and casual drinks with friends. The kitchen is open, letting diners appreciate the quality and care that go into each dish. Guests can also enjoy a range of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten‑free options, ensuring there is something for everyone. Gorgeous cocktails and a full bar complement the menu, and while the restaurant no longer accepts reservations, the friendly staff seat guests on a first‑come, first‑served basis.
