Literally the worse place I've ever eaten service was so slow, food was terrible and tasted like it was done it a microwave the cola I had was very cheap. Overall a really bad experience.

This is a lovely cosy traditional Italian restaurant with good service and a great atmosphere. The quality of the food is very good with over generous portions at a reasonable price using the tastecard. Our bill came to £50 for 2 starters 2 mainsail side dishs and 2 very nice bottles of vino! We would highly recommend a visit and look forward to going again.

Chose the restaurant due to its location.
We were immediately seen to upon entering, and service throughout the meal was prompt. Other a few other couples in the restaurant making it very quiet. Tables are quite close to each other so it did feel a little cramped. We felt the food was pretty average. Ordered starters and mains which were ok.
Taste deal was adhered to without any problems, although the restaurant very naughtily automatically added a 10% tip to the bill without showing it on the breakdown, meaning you could very easier add another 10%.
We wouldn't go back again, as I think we could get better food for the same price at other locations not too far away. "

"The food was good and the price very reasonable with the taste discount. The service was a bit hit-and-miss but generally a nice venue.
