Cute place, canteen vibes. We had the lunch deal so a main - good portion size and really delicious - with a glass of wine. Nice size glass as well. Service was super friendly. Can’t beat value for money. Will definitely be back

Lovely evening with delicious food and charming service as always - just a problem with noise levels from one particularly celebratory group!

So wonderful to have such a lovely restaurant around the corner. It is transformed in the evening into a candlelit cosy place with a very exciting menu full of delicious things to share (or not!) from bread & olives, small plates up to larger plates. Lovely service too. Definitely recommended - if you can get a table!
