    Sometimes the last minute finds/ bookings are the best. After a day's wandering we did a Google search for dinner and discovered this small, Italian restaurant. Great find. The Tortellini alla norcina with sausage, mushroom and creamy truffle sauce was one of the best plates of pasta I've had.???? Every plate was delicious (scallops, croquettes, seabass, tortellini, chocolate cake and tiramisu). The service was friendly, authentic and quietly efficient. Grazie Mille!

    Amazing place I have a lot nostalgia from growing up in here :D From what I've seen after my parents sold the restaurant they have made amazing stuff to it well decorated and the food looks delicious.

    Positives: Fillet steak amazing, nicely cooked scallops and tasty mixed bruschetta. Nice and pleasant service. Negatives: only 2 scallops for £13 is very tight and the seafood risotto had dead closed muscles. Interior doesn't match prices and too busy to cope with decent service. We didnt kick up a fuss as we still enjoyed our meal but the chef not noticing the cooking of the seafood in the risotto raised some serious questions. Dish refunded but surprised we didn't get a sincere apology from the waitress. We probably won't return as its only 70% there compared to pricing and expectation to be honest. An offer of a free desert or glass of wine wouldn't go a miss, they're just to busy on a Friday to think.

    The service was poor here, Friday night. We were waiting a long time for our table to 'be prepared' (we had booked) but plenty of tables available throughout the night and then waited 25 minutes to be asked even our drinks order. There were multiple tables with old plates and glasses sitting there for the duration of our time here. The food arrived promptly, it was very nice food especially the pasta. Burrata very nice. The chicken milense was dry and I had to give my husband some of my pasta sauce to help him to chew it... Would prefer more vegetarian options on the menu, there were no options for secondi plates. The vibe of the place was okay but it was very bright as the lights were on high which was not very relaxing Staff overall were kind, and once I had complained about the service they were a bit better. They needed another staff member with them to be honest

    Delicious! Really enjoyed the food and wine. This is the battered calamari, prawn and courgette and crab ravioli with lobster sauce. Absolutely perfect! Loved it so much. It’s quite small but so friendly and better than a chain
