   So disappointed to receive a 10% service charge on top of our bottomless bill. Don’t advertise a price if it’s not accurate. Incredibly poor service only insult to injury. Food great but you shouldn’t have to beg for a drink when you have paid a set fee.

   Great food, no faults there and I would love to eat there again for the food alone. However, the service was very lacking. Took some time to get our orders taken and then our food took a while. We found it hard to flag down the servers to ask for desert and questions in general. When we asked for take away containers we waited for around 15 minutes and realised they forgot us. While it was busy when we got there it was quiet when we were having desert so I’m not sure if was just poor communication but service was definitely off putting.

   Never disappoints. From service to food to drinks, the quality is always high - and we go there often over the last few years. The fact it’s always great speaks volumes to the core of their operations.

   slow service, staff wasn't very attentive with drink refills. put somebody else's order on our table. didn't remake item to give to the correct table which isn't what you're meant to do.

   Shocking table service with too many young staff talking to each other and not looking after customers first. Won’t be back. Also very overly priced for what you get on the actual plate.

   Poorly made dishes, terrible music. Too expensive for what it was.

   The atmosphere in the restaurant was not really great. Music choice more like a cocktail bar at 10pm. We had the Pasta Amatriciana and the Lasagne. Both were average dishes. Lacking flavour and the portion size far too small. Ever went home hungry from an italian restaurant? This is the place! Further to that, there is a 10% weekend surcharge which is absolutely ridiculous. You also get charged $4 each when you decide to choose sparkling water at the start, which is not mentioned! Total for 2 mains, 2 soft drinks and the sparkling water was $85!! Glad we had an entertainment voucher where we got 25% discount. Never returning back!

    Great afternoon with long time friends we had the bottomless brunch. Food, service and staff were excellent. We were there for 6 hours and noone asked us to move on. Will definitely go back and recommend to anyone
