Well that was a sorely disappointing experience... the waiting staff were so nice, the olives were very good but somehow this restaurant seems to think they can pass off severely sub-standard improperly prepared dishes to their customers. Let me give you two specific examples:

1. lamb shanks. The meat was fine, tender and falling apart as you might expect. So why was this served in a mixture of mint sauce out of a jar and ready-made gravy? Euw. And the mash? What was that? Did it ever see a potato? Baby food is nicer.

2. chicken pizza. Had a few tiny dots of chicken on it. Tomato sauce and mozzarella was painted on thinly. Pizza was so under baked the dough was still bendy.

To the credit of the chap in charge, he gave us a discount on the bill because we gave these comments at the time.

Honestly, if you want italian food - go elsewhere in Egham or Englefield Green.

Oh yes, and while other reviewers have commented positively on social distancing, we experienced none of that. We chose not to sit inside because the tables do no allow for safe passing of customers and staff. The staff we met did not wear masks or gloves and came as close to us as you might have expected pre-pandemic. Our cutlery was handled in front of us by those same staff. The menu we received was greasy indicating it had been handled numerous times. This restaurant may be doing something positive on this behind the scenes but it was invisible to us.
