    We really enjoyed our food. The restaurant was very busy, so a bit cramped. Had to ask for wine bucket to be moved out of the way. But attentive and helpful staff. May well go back

    Great little Italian bistro for a nice quiet dinner. Service and hospitality throughout was excellent and made the night. The wine (Italian sauvignon blanc) was great. Food was very good, I had my favourite (linguine Vongole) though my wife said hers (seafood pasta) could have had more flavour/seasoning for her. Really enjoyed it and recommended to all.

    Such a terrific meal. My tail of monkfish was one of the best pieces of fish I have ever eaten, and the willingness to alter a dish for my vegetarian fiancee was really impressive (and shows just how fresh the food is!). It was a really terrific meal. Starter, main course and a glass of wine each was £128.

    Food was good. Unfortunately our table wasn’t available for 20 mins after we arrived at the booked time. That was a shame as there is nowhere to sit while we waited.

    Never disappoints! Have been coming here for over 30 years and it’s still the most wonderful property Italian restaurant. Delicious food and wonderful staff. Can’t fault it.
