Squid ink pasta and pasta for the mushroom meal was very poor, as if it had been cooked, cooled and warmed in a microwave. Sweet from the specials was poor, the pastry was as hard as a rock, inedible, coffe was good.

Authentic rustic experience! Tasty food; gorgeous pasta. Puds a little disappointing and service a tad slow, but food quality was very good! Tasty ingredients. It was a little chilly inside.

The authentic menu and offering is great - the food was delicious. There is a certain element of simplicity about the restaurant that is also appealing. However, in terms of how I would say to improve, I think the restaurant could do with re-decoration just to give it a bit more life and zeal. Where I was sat I was facing towards the kitchen and the lighting was pretty bright which kind of spoilt the conventional 'atmosphere' that you get when you go to a restaurant in the evening. When I say re-decorate, I don't mean completely transform, just some subtle changes to make the restaurant more visually appealing and 'warm'.

The best vegan pasta I have ever eaten! Would eat here every day for the rest of my life if it wouldn’t make me obese. You can tell the restaurant cares about their dishes. Definitely will be returning!

I have been previously and the food was amazing, however this time the food was average; it was not hot enough (like it had been standing for a while before serving) and the portion was more like a starter not £13.00 - overall very disappointing and I wont be returning....
