"Food good when they eventually sort out the correct order. Ordered white wine, came with red not a good start. When we turned up advised no Sunday left, which we did come for, fair enough under circumstances but would not have come if we knew this prior. Starters ok and tasty, main course came not as per the menu, salmon not as mentioned, menus stated white wine and garlic sauce, turned up covered in tomato, not the best for someone who can’t stand taste of tomato. This was rectified although parent finished his by time it was received but not the point, if comes with tomato state this one on the menu. Desert nice but service, well where do we start only 3 tables with people on trying to obtain the bill so we can leave, can not get any service, please what would it be like when it is busy. Under the current circumstances it really is not good especially when they are talking right beside you, 3 staff only 1 working, very disappointing, will take a lot to come back her, sport to say"

It is rare to come across a restaurant next to a Travelodge, especially one of such high quality, but this one surpasses expectations. The restaurant greeted us warmly, provided exceptional service, and served top-notch food in generous portions. The staff were outstanding, striking the perfect balance between professionalism and making us feel right at home.

We were staying at the Travelodge next door and booked a table in advance. We had been before a few years ago. It didn’t disappoint. I had the Pollo Cordon Bleu and my wife had the Risotto Alfredo. Both dishes were just delicious. My wife said it was one of the best risotto’s she’s had. The sweet were also lovely. The prices are very reasonable and I would certainly recommend a visit. The service was also great.

I ordered takeout as a special treat for my partner and me. We spent nearly £40 on 2 starters and 2 main dishes, but were disappointed when the food arrived cold. One of the main dishes cost £14 and was the size of a starter, with very small portions and low quality. The chicken tasted like it had been boiled and was very bland. I regret not saving my money and cooking at home instead. Overall, I ended up wasting almost £40 and had to cook anyway.

We were staying at the Travelodge next door and booked a table in advance, to save having to trek back into town on a rainy night. Mid week was fairly quiet and plenty of tables to choose from. I had Salmon Tagliatelle, less than £10 and my companion had Vegetarian pasta, under £9. The drinks were expensive though. The food was delicious and the service was first class. We were the last ones out at 9pm. I would recommend this restaurant to travellers .

The restaurant had very poor service. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, we had to wait 15 minutes for a table for 5. Once seated, the waiter/waitress refused to take our lunch order despite us seeking assistance multiple times. The supervisor, a lady wearing glasses, even had the audacity to ask us to wait for 2 minutes and they would come to us. It was clear that they were not interested in providing us with their services, so we decided to leave.

We stayed at the travel lodge Friday night. I decided to get a takeaway and bring back to the room. Ordered calamari fritti good portion but lacked salt seasoning. Ordered the bruschetta and we found the bread soggy didn’t like this. Ordered 2 portions risotto ai fruitti nice portions of seafood especially the size of prawns. But what was surprising was that the rice was not Italian Arborio and just normal rice which lacked the flavour. This was disappointing so be aware of this.

Love this restaurant, my fave Italian. I have had expensive italian and it is not as nice. The staff are fantastic, nothing is a bother and you often get a free garlic bread on the house. Cherri and Georgia are fantastic waitresses and the chef always tries to accommodate any changes you request, he has also given me tips on how to cook!!! The waitresses dressed up for Halloween, they looked celebrity style amazing!!! Why was this not publicised in the press? Gutted they will be doing takeaways only for the next month! Keep smiling Cherri and Georgia, missing you already. Stay safe all you lovely staff.

"started really well and went to the counter and ordered a cream with bananas and nutella and especially gave no earthberries I also asked after a san pelegríno still water as this was on the menu. I was the first person to order and the last to eat at the end. I brought my water over which was a cheaper brand water I just had £2 for what I would like to have seen? we will, when asked for san pelligrino to say water that they do not in. Finally my crepe and I take a bite and understand that it is earthly on the whole species and wise by which I am allergic. one of my family members takes it back and says that I have asked for bananas, there is no earthly reason why I cannot eat it and did not want it on my crepe. then 5 minutes later another crêpe comes out, who was my bite crêpe, that someone had put the earthy and banan in the bananas. disgusting ... not sure whether this was a mistake or just stingy either as it did not. it is then returned because there is no way I eat, and it is explained again, there is a reason that I can not eat strawberries, to which then one of the owners passes to serve the right crepe and apology. I really hope that today a lection has been learned because cross-contamination is not a sweat. please be careful when they eat there. I didn't get any refunds offered, but then they were ready to serve me a bite crawl, so it didn't surprise me so much."
