Excellent Italian food, well presented, hot and without too long a wait. Would benefit from an additional waiter possibly, but appreciate that difficult to gauge how busy going to be. Suffice to say, whist Cacio & Pepe was busy on our visit, the Indian opposite had no diners, and neighbouring Italian half full at best. Says it all.

On a whim, we went out and enjoyed a pleasant evening meal - first time here since change of name and presumably ownership. Friendly service; meal sligthly slow in coming but was prepared to order and we weren't in a hurry. Friendly staff. Will be going back soon.

A Great little restaurant that has re-opened recently under new ownership. Under the previous management, it has long been a favourite of ours. We've had many great meals and family get togethers here in the past 12 months. The ambience, hospitality and food have always been good but I am happy to report that the new team have upped the standards and made it even better. Happy to recommend.
