I enjoyed my time, however it was very awkward upon arrival when the table wasn't ready for us yet. We had to wait for a couple with two small children to leave so they could draw the tables together. I felt bad for the couple and slightly rude. I think the whole situation could have been glossed over if the staff had apologised to myself and the couple, and explained the situation. I feel as though it came across as we were forcing them out of their seats. In spite of that I still enjoyed my time at the restaurant.

Still one of the best Italians around. We drive over there from Islington and it's always worth the travel. Updated decor but still the same great food

Following a new refurb and refined menu, the aesthetics were great... The restaurant LOOKS lovely, as does the menu; but 70% of what we asked for, they didn't have... right down to vanilla ice-cream! One of our party literally had an alternative dish for starter, main and dessert and as an apology for 'waiting so long for food' we were given an extra dessert, which was one we didn't want in the first place! The tricolor pasta was hilarious. You could literally tell which one was cooked first as it ranged from luke warm to steaming hot. The 4 cheese pizza was also essentially a mildly warm slice of cheese(s) on toast. Such a shame as we came here at least once a month; but not for £124 for hardly anything we wanted that then happened to be served 'just warm'. Great bartender and wait staff... shame about lack of food alongside inflated prices. Best not to open before you're ready... Sorry. After two years, we won't be coming back.

Beautiful dining room with delightful lighting and music. Great food! Best Italian food in London with delicious wines to go with it. We went there to dinner (family of 4) on 1st March and had a fantastic time. The restaurant was full so recommend booking in advance as we did.

Restaurant very busy. Had to wait nearly 30 minutes despite booking. Waitress very quick and quite attentive. My salad had no dressing and the pasta cingale was a very small portion. Wine was good. My coffee was cold but quickly replaced.Shared pud was a chocolate fondant with ice cream. Very ordinary. Overall was expensive( £57 ) for salad and pasta and a little disappointing, though refurb looks good and they are clearly struggling with the number of customers. Would give it another go.

The food was great (aside from the calamari which was waaay too chewy), we did find the service a little unfriendly and slow at times but it was a very busy Monday evening.

Excellent food and a lovely décor, we really enjoyed it! The only reason I did not rate 6/6 was the nice girl that was serving was rushed off her feet so service was slow.

Food was delicious Italian, one of our favourites. Just a little let down on the service. Lovely staff, but doesn't compare to when the restaurant re opened back in beginning of summer. We're hoping it was just down to a long busy week! As it is one of our favourite spots to eat out.

This local Italian is AMAZING! Really great food and atmosphere. Comes with my highest recommendations and don't fear having your vallet broken because prices are very reasonable.
