The food was lovely. Not marking that down. But the waiter was so rude and in the end the waitress was too. It’s a very tiny restaurant our table hosted 5 people. We were in the very far corner of the downstairs room and all we had was shhh shhh shhh. We accidentally spilt a glass of red wine and was cleaning it up. The waiter kept shh’ing us everything we did or said he said shhhh. I told him to shhh in the end and said to back off then all of a sudden he was polite again. The next thing he’s switched and salting us for been loud to another table of guests. We then realised that’s exactly what the waitress was doing with us about another table. This must be a thing they do? We ended up arguing with another table because someone from that table was saying shhhh to us too but he was following the lead of the waiter and only messing, we then got told to shhh again by the waiter. It was honestly the worst meal I’ve ever experienced. I’ve never ever been told to shhh by anyone else other than my mother. They scurried off blaming us for leaving but then a gentleman they was with explained how they had to get to a speak easy for 9am and wouldn’t be aloud in if late. The waiter tried using this against us to which I explained that we had already spoken and sorted the matter, realising the waiter was the one winding everyone up. Long storey prob sounds daft but if you want to be able to speak and have a laugh...
Read moreMy partner and I were welcomed at the front of the restaurant with lovely smiles and were given a nice table toward the back. The restaurant is a little dim, making for a more intimate atmosphere, the tables are somewhat close together but gives it a cosy, homely feel. The menu had moderate vegetarian options (around 2-5 per category).
We ordered a cheesy garlic bread, margarita pizza and tagliatelle dolcelatte. The cheesy garlic bread and margherita pizza were absolutely divine, the dough in both were cooked perfectly and the cheese to bread ratio was generous. Some restaurants tend to give more dough than cheese or tomato sauce, but this pizza was the definition of perfection. Lastly the tagliatelle dolcelatte was also quite good, though the cheese flavour can be a little bit strong, and the meal gets heavy very quickly (I struggled to finish it!). However, it contained uncrushed pepper kernels which gave the dish a little zing, which I absolutely loved.
The staff were all friendly and our food came out relatively quickly. The service was very professional and of a high standard. The cost was about £18 per person for our starter, two mains...
Read moreCame here for a nice, home cooked Italian dinner as advertised and was horribly disappointed. The menu read like something out of the 70's which is actually fine if done well but I really resent paying for dinner out that I feel I could have cooked better myself. The house wine was very cheap and it was really rough and acidic. Our table felt like it was in the corridor and was right by a loo. Staff dropped things really loudly quite a few times while we were there. The lady who came to take our drinks order, about 30 seconds after we'd got the menu seemed surprised we hadn't chosen anything, and came back every couple of minutes. She seemed really confused when we asked for some bread while we were choosing and offered to send a different waiter because apparently she was able to take a drinks order only. We were given dessert menus without asking but we'd had enough by then and didn't stay for dessert. I could be wrong of course, but the menu made it look like the desserts are frozen and bought in. The place was incredibly loud as well. We won't be...
