Customer Review Summary
Across the reviews, the chef stepping out from the kitchen to check on tables comes up again and again, described by most as a warm, unusual gesture that made diners feel valued. Close behind, specific dishes draw consistent praise: the gamberoni al limone is singled out by a self-described seafood lover as excellent, while the tiramisu appears repeatedly as a standout dessert alongside seafood spaghetti, lasagne, cannelloni, and carbonara. Several reviewers note reasonable prices and generous portions, and one describes a takeaway order matching the same standard as eating in, with a discount applied. A recurring minor gripe involves inconsistent portioning, one reviewer found the calamari bland and rubbery and had to ask for extra chili oil and black pepper, and another complained the gamberoni arrived with only a single prawn. One detailed account stands apart from the rest: a reviewer describes the chef speaking harshly to female waitstaff, being served a different beef dish than ordered, and having to dispute extra charges added to the bill. Several reviewers stress booking ahead given how full the restaurant gets.

“We had an lovely evening here for a birthday. The staff were accommodating with ballons and cake, very welcoming & friendly. Food was 10/10 and service was super.”
- Alpaca Makalon
“I already can't wait to go back! Delicious and satisfying Italian food with a wide variety of dishes to choose from. The service staff was friendly and patient with us, despite how busy the place was. There is always a table celebrating a birthday - this is all you need to know how much the folks love to hang out at this restaurant! 🥂 Food-wise, lasagne was moreish at every bite, and so was the cannelloni and pizza. We didn't order the seafood dishes, but they looked (and smelt) amazing on other tables. Treat yourself with the desserts, you won't regret it 👍”
- J Patrick Connolly
“It's my absolute go to for true Italian food in the north of England. Not subject to the latest fads or trends. Just honest Italian food like mama used to make. Beware of expensive alternatives!”
