"Wondering if this place has changed hands in recent times? Been here a few times over the years when visiting Buxton and has always been fantastic, however visiting on Saturday, unfortunately, for all of us in our party of 6 the food was dire. The service is still brilliant (although appears to be all new staff). The atmosphere, perhaps may be due to the cold weather, but did not have that Saturday night 'thriving ' feel there has been in the past/you usually get in Italian restaurants on a busy weekend night. The food though was just not good at all, sorry to say. Previously it has been some of the best Italian food we have had, fresh, homemade, really nice pizza, pasta. The menu seemed different tonight, and the food just tasted like the bases had been bought on the pizza, the garlic bread was like ciabatta sticks but were burnt, my tagliatelle l 'd expected to be pasta tossed with Olives, Sundried tomato etc and it looks more like soggy noodle dish. My brother in law said the calamari tasted like frozen shop bought stuff, and the eggplant ravoli had the aubergine on the outside as if it had just been thrown together. Hopefully this is just a blip, perhaps the usual Chef was off work, but to me something seems to have changed, or unfortunately gone wrong."
