    Very much enjoyed my dinner tonight with my adult son. We were able to book an early dinner at 4.30pm before seeing the musical Sister Act at the nearby Regent Theatre. The Tagliere antipasto platter was delicious with salami, prosciutto & mortadella, creamy cheeses and tangy sides such as olives and marinated vegetables, served with delicious ciabatta bread. My son also had ravioli which he enjoyed. The ambience was wonderful with probably other theatre goers. The staff were prompt and polite and we enjoyed our meal in good time. This first time will not be the last. A real gem in Manchester Lane. Thank you for a lovely experience.

    Totally delish as always! Our favourites were the tostadas and the skewers from the josper, as well as the stuffed pepper. It's a shame some of the amazing dishes have left the menu like the bread with cheese curd nad the queso dip with corn chips.
