"This lovely Italian restaurant has two levels. Top level was brightly lit and looked like it catered for younger families (or that's what I thought I briefly saw). We were ushered to the lower level, which is called Nelly's. It was less brightly lit up, which was perfect for a romantic dinner with my husband. The staff were attentive and pleasant. The food was delicious. The only odd thing was that they had a tv switched on and playing a movie in the background. It was on mute, but it was still a little weird to have a tv in a restaurant and at times a little distracting. I would recommend this restaurant."

Stumbled across this absolute gem of a restaurant. Food was amazing and portions were generous. Staff were attentive and a good laugh. Stunning restaurant.

Very good food if a bit pricey. Was quiet on Sunday lunchtime maybe due to bad weather or the virus or the prices who knows but the quality of the food was very good.

Very friendly and down to earth staff. They also serve the best homemade pasta you will ever have. Thank you to the staff for making us feel welcome, and for your dish recommendation, it was superb!

Fantastic food and excellent service. It was good to see the chef come out from the kitchen for a chat, too! I think if we'd tried this earlier in the week, we would definitely have paid another visit. Really good.

We were visitors to Eastbourne and found this place more by chance than design. Lunch is quite quiet but with a full menu available and everything we had was excellent with great service and reasonably priced. We would have gone again but unfortunately it was closed on Mondays and Tuesdays!

Lorenzo, the owner and chef, is a marvel at front house as well as preparing all the food I don’t know how he does it, but the results are second to none. You cannot be anything other than impressed with this restaurant. If I lived in the area then I would become a regular as indeed are many of his current customers.

We had a meal this evening at Rostic Italian restaurant on the advice of our hotel. It is under new management and is very much a family restaurant. The restaurant was full so we were pleased to have one of the two outside tables. Service was excellent and the food was very good too, we had Lobster ravioli and lasagne. We would come back if ever in Eastbourne again.

Very good Lemon Sole! Super soft, very fresh, good size, and tasty sides. We had Aperol Spritz and Campari Spritz too, both were well done. My 3-year-old boy ate a whole portion of Bolognese pasta, which we were shocked about. Well cooked too, al dente. It was challenging for the staff as I do not eat desserts, and it was my birthday, so I got a shot and a candle in a wine cork. Good job. I would truly recommend it, and we will be back.
