ASK - Harrow
1st Floor, St Georges Centre, Harrow, HA1 1HS
For some time I made the mistake of thinking that no group of restaurants in the region of 200 locations could hope to maintain the quality for which I was looking. Then one day I decided to put my prejudices to the test, walked into Oxford Ask! and discovered that I could not have been more mistaken. Their claim to serve freshly prepared quality food in stylish and comfortable surroundings with friendly and efficient service proved to be absolutely spot on. Since then I have also discovered that a degree of consistency seems to operate throughout their restaurants, and that certainly does take some achieving, implying a degree of management that is enviable. They are perfect places for an impromptu snack, a bit of culinary grazing, or the full works, and families are catered for particularly well.For some time I made the mistake of thinking that no group of restaurants in the region of 200 locations could hope to maintain the quality for which I was looking.

Their trendy décor usually comprises tiled floors and black furniture with well set tables that sparkle with glass, silver and spotless linen. Ten starters include crostini and bruschetta, followed by a range of salads, pasta and al forno, oven baked pasta, some with chicken.
The pizzas are stone baked in the oven, creating a crisp, authentic and delicious flavour, and they all come topped with mozzarella and tomato. Calzone introduce a touch of opulence with a folded pizza baked in the oven and topped with garlic butter and melted grana padano, whilst inside expect to find chicken or a vegetarian mix.
Amongst the specials may I warmly, in every sense, recommend the polpette al forno, a popular Milanese dish of beef meatballs sautéed in garlic with fire roasted peppers, caramelised onions, chilli and pomodoro sauce, with penne pasta, topped with cheese and oven baked.
An enticing selection of desserts list banoffee pie and tiramisu amongst them, and the coffee tastes like coffee, which may sound banal, but I guess you know what I mean.
Thanks to a well selected wine list speculative drinking can offer handsome dividends, even with prices rarely crossing the £20 barrier.

REVIEWS OF ASK - Harrow
Monica (2 December 2011)
We were a party of six whip dined at the Harrow branch of Ask last Tuesday. We were very impresses with Scott, who was extremely helpful and catered for air needs. It is always nice to be served by someone with such a pleasant manner. We will definitely be returning and will recommend to friends.
Samantha Rimell (18 April 2006)
Upon arrival, the waiting staff were very helpful, fast and efficient in getting us seated, although they did seat us right next to another group of loud people even though it was clear that I was with my partner for a quiet romantic meal and there was lots of space all round the restaurant. When we asked if we could sit anywhere else, they said this was due to them being busy later on in the night. To have our order taken took quite a while but the food was very quick to be served and was very hot. I was very pleased to see that the staff in "ASK" are very quick which is great. I did feel that we were given lots to eat although for the price I did find it rather good. The staff did clear up very quick and our finished plates were cleared away very quickly. All in all I would give the restaurant, 8/10, I will be back!
