I booked a party of 22 people. Victor and his team went out of their way to make sure we had a very enjoyable evening. All the plates were empty, so the food was great and so was the service! Would definitely eat there again. Thank you !

Enjoyed the atmosphere and service was good. The Linguine Crazy Alfredo was supposed to be hot and contain chillis but was not hot at all. A bit disappointing for two of our party who like spicy food. Would go back again and see if it was just a blip.

Food lacked seasoning and presentation of sauses was not good, wine by the glass was very expensive. Staff were very good although waitress was obviously new. Overall not as good as when it first opened when we visited three weekends in a row.

Food lacked taste, 2nd time I’ve dined here and sadly the last as it’s in a great location and looks good inside, staff are friendly but that’s not enough.

Fantastic food (really delicious, well-cooked and nicely presented) and great service. As we went on a Monday evening it was very quiet so can't really comment on the atmosphere, but it was very enjoyable.

The food was superb and didn't think they were overpriced at all. The service expectations were good and they were very patient with our group as we were not ready to order after a couple of visits to our table by the waitress. Would definitely visit again.

Sat outside with attentive service on a warm evening - a very good start! We asked for a G & T and were offered a choice including a Saffron Gin which we opted for - wonderful! The speciality of the day was a Half Lobster on a bed of Tomato Linguine which two of our group chose. One of our group chose the Cod (Merluzza) and I opted for The Carbonara - one of the tastiest I can remember. As we had partaken in starters we gave desserts a miss, although nearly gave in to the tiramisu or zabaglione that were listed! We had a bottle of house white which was reasonably priced at £16.95. A thoroughly enjoyable evening.

The food was absolutely fab, felt very authentically Italian! The wine was great, we had a bottle of gavi Di Gavi. And the staff were fab, such a lovely lady looking after us all evening - and taught us some Italian! Great evening, will definitely return.
