This was an exceptionally good restaurant with extremely good attentive staff. The food was delicious.
We chose from the Early Bird Menu but À la Carte is also available. Great choice on either menu.
I definitely recommend booking here.

Tasty foodFriendly staffDesserts & cakes
Absolutely a great night out. Oh the staff are just brilliant everyone was so welcoming and made the night so much fun. The food was delicious especially the duck. And desert was a hug to the soul. Beautiful beautiful beautiful xx
The best ever. The atmosphere brings you straight to Italy, and the food and service are even better than many in Italy. We shared 3 apps, 2 entrees, and 2 desserts between two people and could not get enough. The crostini and chocolate torta are standouts. The tiramisu and duck are fabulous too. Truly incredible quality of ingredients, deep flavor, and lovely service and ambience. Tens across the board, but especially for the appetizers. Do not skip dessert either!
