"This has always been one of our favourite Italian restaurants in the Scunthorpe area for many years. We knew Coni Carlos were selling up we’re saddened to think of losing this fantastic dining experience. But to our amazement the new owners have not disappointed us, in fact they have excelled in their new venture! On arrival we were warmly greeted and seated quickly. We opted for a bottle of Sauvignon blanc totally delicious. Crab cakes for me goats cheese fritter for my wife of 32 years Both were to die for, fresh flavoursome. Having realised the new owners are Turkish we were pleased to try their home additions to the specials board! My main was mixed Turkish skewers, my wife had the monkfish. Nice to know the bulk of their staff are from the previous owners too! Having delighted our way through the mains we finished the wine chatted a while before deciding on a pudding excited to see they still did the Amereto slices we both opted for them. Mine with ice cream, the othe with cream…….OMG right choice too! As the restaurant slowly cleared of diners we found ourselves the last to leave, giving us a chance to find a little more about the new owners, Murat Emir, what great new hosts for this local gem of a restaurant, they asked our opinion on the food service, both were fantastic we cannot wait to return next weekend to try their lunchtime menus. Great work, looking forward to trying more Turkish treats along with the Italian choices."

"I’ve been 3 times now within the past couple of months; once with my friend and twice with my partner. First time I had prawn cocktail and hunter’s chicken. Due to a food intolerance to chillis/peppers, I asked the waitress if they could check whether...the bbq sauce had chillis in. This was no problem. It did have chillis in so the waitress said they’d be able to do another sauce, and so I settled on a garlic sauce instead. I was genuinely surprised at how far they went, after I’m often left feeling like an inconvenience to ask about ingredients in sauces etc but they couldn’t have been more accommodating and willing to help (especially after they said they could do another sauce as I contemplated having it plain) The second time I had a Sunday carvery and oh my god, it was the best carvery I’d ever had! Everything was perfect! Didn’t have dessert as went to an ice cream parlour after but felt disappointed as they looked good! My most recent visit was just yesterday. And I had gammon, chips and peas with a side order of onion rings. It was all divine once again! The pineapple was grilled fresh pineapple, not the tinned rings you usually get with gammon and it was two large chunks so didn’t have to ration the pineapple/gammon ratio! Onion rings were amazing but it was all too much they’re definitely a sharing portion! Would be nice if they had an onion ring side for one option as I hate food waste managed a dessert and had a white chocolate and raspberry roulade with vanilla ice cream. Was tempted by a sponge pudding but felt it would be too heavy. Was pleased with my option though. Price wise, I would say it’s about average price for a pub meal. The gammon was £11.95 I think, similar price for the hunter’s chicken, and my partners fish and chips were £14.95 but the fish portion is huge so well worth it! I think the last bill was about £50 for the two mains, onion rings, two desserts and three drinks. I’m looking forward to coming back for the carvery around my birthday (end of April)"
