  “Had 2 amazing meals here whilst staying in the model buildings in Rothbury. Luckily we went early enough in our holiday to be able to visit again. The quality and taste of the food is amazing. Staff attentive and friendly. I would highly reccomend booking as a gem of a restaurant gets busy.”

  “Stunning Italian food, my pasta was amazing, as was the missus Risotto. Garlic bread was beautiful an a hell of a size. Pizzas looked awesome. Staff charming and super efficient. Great value for money. Been visiting Rothbury 15+ years, no idea how we'd missed this gem, no wonder they're popular.”

  “The building is lovely, interior nicely done, mind your head on the way in if 6ft tall. Service was great friendly lady, quickly seated & served for lunch. Was disappointed in the food, just had a marghertia pizza which was quite underwhelming. Sauce was nice but over powered the cheese, I did like the concept of cutting your own pizza with the roller but on a single table the wooden slab was sliding around. I would come back to try somthing else then maybe will update review. Couldn't beat the price for a lunch meal.”

  “This is a great little Italian restaurant, at the end of the High Street in Rothbury. We booked a table and I’m very glad we did. This is a busy restaurant. The food was very good, my wife had the calzone and said it was the best she’s ever had. I discussed my dietary requirements with the waiting staff (no eggs or dairy) and at their suggestion, had the seafood risotto. It was very good.”
