Great attentive service, food was tasty. Understand it was Saturday but we were a couple sat next to a large table of around 12 people who were very noisy and boisterous which did spoil the ambeince. Overall good though.

Unfortunately, some of the dishes were way overpriced for what you got. £4.50 for 3 stuffed olives is ridiculous, or £7.50 for a tiny glass of prosecco (which had no flavour of white peach syrup). The menu was really unclear too and confusing. The staff were friendly though.

The food is excellent, lots of sharing plates with every dish being different but full of flavour and texture. Noise isn't an issue unless you;'re looking for quiet conversation, it's more vibrant and social so very good for families or larger groups. Well worth a visit...and another...

Quiet mid-week lunch. Nice imaginative menu. Helpful people and incredibly quick, but that was probably because it was quiet.

Lovely meal all round - and had a delicious sipsmith mocktail. The crab and chilli linguine is usually my favourite dish but wasn't as flavoursome and creamy as it has been in the past..

Lovely food and staff. Noise levels so high we could not hear each other. Needs music down and some sort of cushioning against noise.

Even though they forgot one of our dishes, when they brought it to us, they provided it free and gave us an additional free dish too. Excellent customer service

Food was mostly good. The fritto misto tasted slightly under seasoned compared to previous visits. Gnocchi duck was lacking in duck and mostly tasted of the tomato sauce it was served in. However, the mint arancinis and the squid ink pasta were delicious. Music was too ‘clubby’ and loud for our tastes. Service was lovely.
