Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers return to the friendly, quick table service, with servers who seat diners straight away and check in without rushing. Food is described as delicious, and the lasagna gets specific praise, with a vegetarian pizza and a Caesar salad also singled out, plus mocktails that one diner found really nice. Several describe repeat visits, and one says the kitchen handled doughballs without cheese. The caveats are real, though. One reviewer found the signature lasagna small, with no side, and went home hungry after a service charge was added to the bill. Another waited a long time for tap water and a second round of drinks, citing too few staff and no drinks runners. A late-night pasta deal drew a verdict of only okay pasta and lacklustre staff, though others found it good value. One couple, bothered by a noisy child, were moved to a small booth on the opposite side of the room.

“Come here regularly, great food and great service always! Our server Emily is one my regular attendees and always looks after us!”

“We were seated within seconds of walking through the door and Grace quickly came to serve us. She asked if we were ready for drinks and took our order, and then asked if we would like to order our food or wanted more time. Felt like there was no pressure or rushing. We asked if the doughballs could be done without cheese and she explained it could and the price etc. Our food came quickly and was delicious, especially the lasagna ! To say it wasn’t the signature one it was fabulous. Steph collected away our plates etc soon after we had eaten so they weren’t sat on the table long. She then came to check us out once we said we were ready for the bill. Both girls were lovely and chatty, asking about how our days were and whether we had plans for later on. Fab service !”

“Greeted by Lillie, a lovely pleasant young lady, asked us where we would like to sit. My husband said as far away from that screaming child, who was making a bit of a din. It was about 8.30 pm so it would have been lovely to have a quieter meal. Lillie sympathised and put us in a small booth, at the opposite side, which was fine. Lillie took our order, we didn't have to wait long for it to arrive and it was delicious. Well worth the impromptu visit, we hadn't booked and had lots of tables available.”
