Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out friendly, attentive staff, and several describe servers who were knowledgeable about the wine and menu. The food comes close behind. The baked Camembert, freshly made pasta such as the pappardelle al ragù di cervo, and the crab linguine are named as standouts, along with bruschetta, steak and a limoncello berry dessert. Diners also praise the Italian wine choices and describe a quaint, cosy, relaxed room that makes a change from the British gastro pub. The main complaint comes from one reviewer seated at the bar. They say the bartender refused to open a wine by the glass for a taste, sighed and huffed at a friend's request to try a white, and slammed down a glass, while tables that sat empty were described as reserved. The same reviewer still found the steak and potatoes good. One regular suggests booking in advance. A group of twenty at a Christmas lunch noted that starters, mains and desserts were paced well across the day.
