  “Only fault I would give the full experience was the wine glass!! I recommend nicer wine glasses! Not a deal breaker at all but wine tastes nicer from a nicer glass. Food is great :)”

  “I really wanted this to be good. I ate there about 15 years ago and have never been back. However, I'm a firm believer in neighbourhood restos and it is still there, with customers, so we gave it a go. The food was utterly appalling. It was all tasteless but the biggest crime were the Pizza bases, which must have been frozen, with all the charm of anaemic cardboard. The house red was good and cheap. Our two course meal for three came to over £99...Outrageous for such a poor offering!”

  “Great little Italian restaurant with very friendly waitstaff. My wife had the Pollo Cleopatra and I had the Sea Bass special, with the Bruscetta appetizer and chocolate ice cream for dessert. Everything was excellent. Definitely recommend.”

  “Small very lively restaurant. Ladies toilet is small and you need to navigate/squeeze through two doors! The food can be excellent. Today's wasn't as good as we've had in the past. Service is excellent with lovely people. Parking is not easy but if you're patient and go round there block a couple of times you may find paid on street parking on the main road.”

  “The food was fantastic. They have a lot of vegetarian and vegan friendly options. If you’re an Indian tourist like me, definitely check it out (no, they have not paid for this review). Here is a spotless plate from my meal!”

  “Such lovely people!! Service was excellent. Sirloin in brandy sauce was SO delicious. Tiramisu was one of the best I've had, top 2 easily. Melon and parma ham was so fresh. I 1000% recommend this place for delicious food and great service.”

  “Ordered two pizzas to take away. £14.50 each and they are just frozen margarita pizzas, slapped with a bit of ham on top of it. If you in the mood for pizza save yourself the hassle and go anywhere else.”

  “Amazing restaurant. A warm, convivial place with a typical Italian atmosphere! The waiter spilled my coffee a little bit, but he immediately took it back in the kitchen and put a nice topping on it; such a nice gesture! The place got loud, but in a good way, it contributed to the good vibes 🥰”

  “We loved our meal at this authentic and charming restaurant. The food is exactly as served in Italy with classic dishes served with simple ingredients. They had a range of specials, which they were happy to explain to us. The venue is not large so you really should book ahead. The only method seems to call them. When we arrived for our booking at 7.30 it was the last free table. The service was friendly and efficient.”
