Seafood risotto with mussels appears as a recurring main, alongside a chef's special ravioli.

Customer Review Summary

Seafood risotto, with mussels cooked perfectly, is what reviewers raise most, and one calls the portion huge. Close behind are a chef's special ravioli and a complimentary garlic and tomato bruschetta, which one diner ranks above any they have eaten. Reviewers describe friendly service, quick ordering and food arriving fast, and one notes the fresh herbs placed on top of each dish. One suggests reserving at rush hours.

    “Had a wonderful time dining here recently. Everything from the presentation to the flavours was spot on. I was particularly impressed by the mussels in the risotto, which were cooked perfectly. The attention to detail really stood out, especially the delicate way the fresh herbs were placed on top of each dish. It made for such a lovely meal. Will definitely be back again soon. Highly recommended for anyone in Plymouth looking for a great bite.”

    “This place is phenomenal. The service we had was exceptional, great host and waitresses, really polite and friendly. The portions were large and fairly priced for what we received. The quality of the food was exceptional and the flavours balanced to a perfection. A reservation is recommended (we didn't have one and the place was quite busy). The prices were fair (2 drinks, 2 starters and 2 mains with a 10% cost us £60). Will be coming back.”
