ESASA — Restaurant in Great Britain

Disappointing considering how many 5 star reviews there are. Ordered Carbonara and my wife had the Bruschetta as a main as she didn't fancy much on the menu. Also asked for a portion of chips as a side to the mains. The chips came first, ages before the main dishes (they were finished by the time the mains arrived). Carbonara was with guancale which i thought was promising as it would be authentic, however the guancale was nowhere near cooked long enough with the fat still being soft and chewy (and very pale). Even looking at it you could tell. I ended up picking out the guancale and just eating the spaghetti. The waitress did ask how it was and I explained about the fat and to be fair she did offer to get more guancale made up that would be more cooked, however i didn't want to wait even longer to finish my meal than we had already, and just ate the pasta which was just ok. Wife's Bruschetta was nothing special either. It's an open kitchen and when paying the cook was there and at no time did she ask about the comments I had given or the plate returned with all the pork cheek on the side. Maybe some places just don't care. Maybe the pizzas are better, but...

I ordered 20 pizzas to collect for a party on Saturday night. I asked for them to be ready for 9.30pm which they were. The staff were so friendly and restaurant itself was cosy and gorgeous. The pizzas were absolutely amazing everyone at the party commented on how tasty they were, the base and sauce were the best I’ve had. Definitely going back...

Came in here for lunch with my mum and we shared a pesto and sun-dried tomato pizza with fries and drinks. The pizza was delicious with high-quality ingredients and it was cooked to perfection. The portion of fries was generously sized and the value for money is excellent! Lovely staff and great, clean restaurant....
