Went here a few weeks ago while visiting family and will certainly visit again.
First impressions were a clean and well-organised place, not too big and not too small. The gentleman who greeted us was warm and friendly and made us feel very welcome while he showed us to a nice window table.
The menu had plenty of Italian classics as well as some more interesting choices. I ended up with the carbonara while my girlfriend opted for a pork stew.
Meals arrived with reasonable speed and we were well attended with regards to drinks and appetisers. The food itself was first rate, certainly better quality than you'd expect for the price. The pork stew was rich and tasty with perfectly tender pork and a side of excellent chips. The carbonara was perfect too.
Overall, great service, great food and somewhere I look forward to visiting again. I recommend this place...

We ended up a voluntary tip, yet the entire experience made us question whether we...
Read moreA compete 5* restaurant! Me and my partner stumbled across this place for our anniversary and they were sooo welcoming, kind and friendly, the food was incredible and my partner who’s autistic has trouble with the texture of foods and didn’t realise one dish came with a sauce and when it came out they were soo good and replaced it instantly. The food was soo good and the chicken was succulent and so full of flavour which is rare to come across a chicken so well cooked, they replaced the drink I dropped and were so lovely the whole evening!

Highly...
