  “From the moment myself and family walked in I knew this wasn't going to be a pleasant experience - and I wasn't wrong. We were welcomed like we had farted at a funeral. Staff were cold and very abrupt and rushed us to our table... The food: amateur at best. My stepson ordered steak rare - it was overcooked. The pizza my youngest son had was burnt. And they screwed my order up - I ordered the carbobara and instead got some pasta meatball dish, when I questioned it I was given blank looks... To be brutally honest - we could had bought the food in a supermarket for fraction of the price and cooked it better! The prices - to be fair. Not too bad, but nowhere near worth what we were served tonight. First time visiting. And unfortunately it'll be the last... There are better Italian restaurants in Skegness.”

  “An app I use found this place and counts calories from a photo of my plate. The pork belly had plenty of protein and hit my calorie limit without tasting like diet food. The room is clean and quiet.”

  “The food here was amazing. I had the pollo Italia with pasta and my wife had the linguine ai frutti di mate. Both were absolutely fantastic, the best Italian we:be had in a long time. The service was excellent and very attentive.”

  “We arrived after being recommended here by ChatGPT and were seated very quickly at a very clean table. The restaurant itself is very modern and nicely decorated. The first waitress got us drinks very quickly but only asked 2 of us what they’d like, so we all just shared the water that was brought. We ordered the antipasto and bruschetta and felt that was plenty for the three of us to share. The bruschetta was particularly good. My girlfriend had the Confit pork belly which was ok, but not worth the price. Dry pork, crispier than she’s had before. She isn’t a fan of the red cabbage so was a shame to see so much of it. The brocolli she said was amazing. My daughter got the spaghetti bolognese. She said it was nice but quite salty. I had the Rigatoni with chicken and bacon and that was gorgeous. The pasta was a little less cooked than I fumble over at home and I really really liked it. The chewy, salty bacon went really nicely with the sauce and chicken.”

  “We went here last night as we were staying in Skegness and fancied a nicer meal, and Tarantino didn’t disappoint. My whole family (grandparents, mum and sister) said they had amazing food, I had the prawn linguine which was so tasty. The service was good and the prices weren’t too bad considering portion sizes and in general, prices of restaurants nowadays. I’d definitely return if ever in the area!”

  “Not a great start to this unorganised restaurant. We thought Saturday night may be busy so we reserved a table in advance for 7pm. On arrival we were squeezed into a tiny entrance area with 20 or so other patrons; who had also reserved tables for 7pm. We were eventually seated 15 minutes later, but there is no waiting area, consistently moving out of the way for waiters, patrons leaving and those stopping mid-meal for a cigarette. To speed the process up, we looked at the menu in the entrance and decided what we would like. However, after waiting another 5 minutes, the waitress that approached the table stayed she could only take drinks orders and not food. At 7.25 we eventually ordered and my better half ordered the linguine frutti de mare and I opted for the Pollo Vesuvio. We ordered the obligatory Bruschetta to start and holy moly, they put cream cheese on a bruschetta!!! This tasted awful and is definitely NOT Italian! My meal was supposed to come with pasta(well that’s what I ordered) instead it was delivered with chip! Who orders chips in an Italian restaurant.? The sauce was just a plain tomato sauce with chilli powder and they had put grated cheddar on the top. Based on my meal, the chef has never been to Italy, let alone learnt how to cook Italian food. My partners meal wasn’t much better! Frozen prawns, not fresh mussels and we had to ask for lemon to mask the flavours. If you like Italian food, do not come here. I don’t know whether it’s because it’s in Skegness and they purposely lower the standards or whether it is a cheap owner who is only interested in profit, but the poor food, poor service and unorganised nature is not great! I included photos of the food when it was delivered and the food when we were leaving. You can see that it was hardly touched, it was that bad! Not a recommendation,from a foodie like me. Good luck if you eat here!”

  “Came to this restaurant a few days ago and the food was really lovely, the steak and seabass were amazing and very generous portions with the pasta. It was really nice to eat something that wasn’t fish and chips at the seaside, would definitely recommend (:”
