We came here for lunch and was greeted its rustic decor, soft lighting, and welcoming atmosphere, it's the perfect spot for a cozy meal with family or friends. They did a very good job turning a pub into an italian restaurant.

The dining experience begins with a selection of antipasti that sets the tone for the meal. The kingfish crudo was delicious, melt-in-your-mouth kingfish delicately arranged and dressed with a hint of lemon, olive oil, and a sprinkle of sea salt. The parfait is smooth and rich, with a silky texture and a depth of flavour and perfect companion to the wood-fired bread, which arrived at the table warm and fragrant. The crust was perfectly crisp, while the inside remains soft and airy.

For main we ordered: Bucatini, shiitake, chilli, garlic & vongole pasta, The bucatini was cooked to al dente perfection, its hollow shape ideal for capturing the rich sauce. The shiitake mushrooms added a deep, earthy flavour that pairs beautifully with the tender vongole. Infused with garlic and a touch of chilli, the dish is aromatic and satisfying, with a perfect balance of spice and umami.

Josper-roasted prawns, chilli & lemon. These fresh prawns were expertly cooked in the Josper grill, which imparts a smoky flavour that complements the natural sweetness of the seafood. The addition of chilli provides a gentle kick, while a squeeze of fresh lemon juice brightens the dish, enhancing the prawns' succulent taste.

Roasted Cauliflower with Almond, Prosciutto, and Chilli. The cauliflower was beautifully charred, offering a delightful crunch, while the toasted almonds add a nutty richness. The prosciutto gave a savory and subtle saltiness, perfectly balanced by the gentle heat of the chilli.

For dessert - tart of the day with prune, custard, almond and frangipani. It has perfectly baked, golden crust that provides a crisp and buttery base for the layers above. The prunes are soft and sweet, offering a pleasant contrast to the smooth and creamy custard layer that sits atop the crust. The custard is light yet indulgent, with a hint of vanilla. I also loved the torched caramelises sugar on top. I am not a dessert person but this one was delicious and light.

Service was good, attentive and pleasant.

Definitely would come back to try their other antipasti and main.
