"We received a very warm welcome by the manager when we called in for lunch. My favourite dish being Saltimboca alla Romana I questioned as to how it would be prepared insisting that I did not want the added gravy like substance that is sometimes...added. I believe they call it Gu ? Having been assured that it would be prepared with just white wine and sage I made my order. Surprise surprise the dish appeared with a brown sauce which completely swamped the taste of the sage and white wine. In addition the vegetables were RAW ! You could snap the carrot ! The manager did offer to make another however i refused as my wife had already started to eat her meal pointing out that we came out to dine together. Regarding the vegetables he went onto the defensive and explained that they were Al Dente ! and that he had cooked them himself. This was certainly NOT the case. I particularly like vegetables cooked that way but these were almost RAW except for the potato. The manager's attitude was completely wrong. No apology was made which would have been his best approach. The bottom line was that I was not charged for my meal. A nice gesture but the experience has put me off returning to this place."

Food was excellent, so was the service. It was a very good atmosphere and right in the town, very convenient. We would visit again with no hesitation next time in this area.

My family had a fabulous time last night. The service, the food, the ambiance, everything was perfect. A local business where nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommended.

Me and my boyfriend couldn’t go out on Valentine’s Day and decided to book for the Wednesday after. When we struggled to find the Resturant we called the staff and he directed us right to the door. We were greeted with a warm welcome and...everything from the service to the food was amazing! 10/10 would recommend

just came with my wife and the guy greeted us with an rude attitude saying that the kitchen is closed - and went away while I spoke, I waited that he came back to me and asked him about the opening times and replied...with a gray face check out website chill out mate and take it easy, they don't work for passport control! rude

Perfect independently owned Italian restaurant in the heart of Wokingham with a wonderful atmosphere. Incredible hosts and servers made us feel so welcome and the food and wine is fantastic would definitely recommend the merlot and vodka pasta! Only regret is we didn’t have...room for desert… Would never visit a chain Italian in wokingham again, fully recommended.

Have visited here on a number of occasions now and our experience just gets better every time. The food is always delicious (try the Filetto Con Gorgonzola), the atmosphere friendly and welcoming, and the staff attentive and knowledgeable. Can’t wait to go back the...sort of place you’d like to become a regular and want to visit regularly. Oh, and the Limoncello makes the walk home much more interesting!! 10/10.
