⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a delightful find in Lightwater! This quaint little Italian restaurant, owned by the wonderful Toni, is a true gem. From the moment we walked in, we felt like we were stepping into a cozy corner of Italy. Toni welcomed us like old friends and went out of his way to suggest the perfect wine to pair with our meal, and his menu recommendations were spot on. The food was nothing short of heavenly—authentic, traditional Italian cuisine that transported us straight to Italy. We savored every bite of the Arrabiata and Carbonara pasta, both bursting with flavor and clearly made with fresh, quality ingredients and lots of love. Chef Elio’s incredible talent was evident in every dish. To top it all off, we had the tiramisu, and it was the best I’ve ever had—the perfect way to end our meal. For a moment, we could have sworn we were dining in a little trattoria in Rome. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, filled with laughter and the kind of hospitality that leaves you with a warm heart. We can’t wait to return and try more dishes. Unfortunately did not get any more pics! A word of advice: be sure to book ahead to secure a table at this popular spot. Highly recommended for anyone craving an authentic Italian dining experience!

Looks like a nice place, however I felt we were treated with contempt and the experience left a proverbial bad taste in my mouth. As per the photo, the place was open but they completely ignored my partner and children when they walked in and said hello. This was in spite of me calling ahead and booking a table. When I walked in, I greeted someone and asked if they are actually open. They were annoyed at me and simply stated "no, not until 1pm, like I said on the phone". The quality of their phone line was pretty bad so I accept I may have misunderstood, hence this isn't simply a 1 star review. Nevertheless, it's simply unacceptable to be so discourteous by straight up ignoring people who have walked in. Simply stating: "we're closed" would have been sufficient. If they really aren't open, why open the door and have the open light on? We didn't wait in the end and left to go elsewhere. Highly recommend you do not attempt to dine in here. They probably don't open properly until 2pm on a Saturday. The cafe next door looks lovely. We went to Milano 57 which is 10 minutes away and MUCH more welcoming :)

An amazing little Italian eatery that you MUST visit. The quality of the food is excellent while the owner and service is fabulous. This is a local independent shop that needs your support and one trip will make you realise what we miss with the chain restaurants, great food, great service, and an all round better experience. There is also a small deli section selling imported Italian food and ingredients which is great to have too.

This is a very quaint restaurant that we happened to stumble upon. It was such a pleasant discovery. The food was great and the owner very friendly. We had the bruschetta appetizer, margarita pizza, spinach tortellini, spaghetti bolognese and chicken penne. I highly recommend the pizza. It is real Italian pizza. All of it was made fresh and delicious! Highly recommend this place! I also appreciate the prices being very reasonable.

A hidden gem !! A cozy little Italian restaurant for great food. Be it Pizza or Pasta, they do it right. Like home cooked meals. Do make sure you leave room for the homemade Tiramisu. The service is excellent. Warm, friendly, witty and caring. Although I don't drink alcohol now, the Pecorino desert wine smelled good and was thoroughly enjoyed by my friend. Wish it was closer to home to visit more often.

Love this independent place. Have visited for a few years and with exception to one toppings error (which we then got a free pizza replacement for!) it’s been excellent each time. Fresh ingredients and freshly made to order awesome pizza. A great selection of pizza toppings too! And always nice to catch up with the owner each time I visit. A must try. You won’t be disappointed
