Second time visiting for pre-theatre dinner. Fast, friendly service and great value for money. Definitely book in advance as it it extremely popular and lots of walk-ins were being turned away, even at 5pm. Highly recommend.

Lovely family run Italian restaurant convenient for pre theatre dinner. Traditional Italian menu, liver and bacon especially recommended. Nice atmosphere, not too noisy, with friendly staff. Good value for money (this is the West end!). Recommend booking if looking for a pre theatre dinner as gets busy about 5.30 onwards.

Absolutely delicious! The cheesy garlic bread was amazing - the bread so soft and fluffy and plenty of cheese on top. My friend had the bolognese which she loved and I had the seafood pasta and asked for chillis in it, and it was perfect - just the right heat level. Service great too. Will definitely visit again next time we go to the theatre. Thank you.

The restaurant was recommended to me by a friend, it didn’t disappoint. I made a rather predictable choice for my main course, meat lasagne, it was very tasty. We will definitely be returning.

My wife and I arrived a little early for our pre theatre booking but the table was ready so we were shown to it. Our order was taken after a while by an indifferent waitress. Our starters arrived quite quickly and were pretty good. The ciabatta with oil and vinegar was nice as well as the avocado salad. The main courses arrived before our plates were taken and only a few minutes after finishing the starters so we felt a bit rushed. But then we had to wait quite a while before our dessert order was taken, longer than it took us to eat the first two courses! However the tiramisu was very good. It then took around 20 minutes after asking for the bill to be able to pay. Overall, decent food but so so service.

Wow. Authentic Italian, remarkably tasty and great value. Wine assortment is modest but complementary to the dishes. I would return as often as I could if I did not live in New Jersey. Damn ocean.

We booked a table for 4 for a pre show meal. Restaurant was warm and welcoming. There is a wide choice of menu options and daily specials. Very friendly staff. Minestrone soup starter was excellent. Main meal of calves liver served with vegetables was very tasty. Home made Tiramisu completed a lovely meal. No rush for us to leave all in all a great experience.
