    Not only was we seated at a table next to a fridge so the staff kept coming beside us whilst we are trying to have a cosy meal. Asked to move and we had a nice table but was way too hot in the restaurant & the service was very slow. I appreciate it was a Saturday night but there was about 6/7 staff and we was never asked for topping up of drinks and took 45 mins for starter to arrive. By the time we got our mains we was ready to leave. Spent 2.5 hours in a restaurant when it was supposed to be a quick meal.

    Beautiful food and good service. My partner said it was the best lasagne outside of Rome. My Spinach and Ricotta cannelloni was spot on, too.

    Unfortunately, the restaurant was very loud and we couldn't hear each other. Food was okay but not really value for money.

    A very enjoyable meal for us all. A lovely venue and tastefully decorated and a number of wonderful paintings and "Italianesque" oddities. Portions could be a little more generous. Prices are a little on the high side but good value overall. Great service.

    Tried to pre order so we emailed the website and heard nothing back so we called up and were informed that they don't use their website and gave us a whatsapp number to pre order. Although we had pre ordered we still ended up waiting almost an hour for our food. When we asked how long the food was going to be, we were met with a sarcastic 'its coming' food was nice but that was about it.

    friendly staff and excellent food. Waitress forgot about our dessert order and I had to remind her but she apologised graciously and this didnt detact from out experience, it only mattered because we needed to get to the theatre and had a tight time schedule.

    The Food was amazing but we were sat in the first part of the restaurant and it wasn’t very warm as the door constantly lets in cold air. Service was great.

    This was a wonderful way to start our evening, as it was a pre theatre meal. Unfortunately we only had time for a main meal, however we collectively agreed that a return visit was needed, so that we could have a pudding! We would definitely recommend this restaurant to friends & family!
