"Just love this place, real Italian food cooked by a real Italian who obviously loves his craft. Excellent menu cooked when ordered, suitable for vegetarians. Excellent service and lots of time between courses (as in Italy). There is a very good choice on the menu from meats, vegetables and fish. We were both really impressed with the restaurant and have been back, can't wait to go again as it is so good. This is a family run restaurant who take great pride in producing their authentic dishes and it really is something they should be proud of, you really can imagine that you are dining in Italy, just fabulous."

The best pizza I've ever eaten in this friendly, welcoming, smart Italian restaurant, followed by the lightest tiramisu. A real gem, we'll definitely be back.

Spot on food, brilliant service, couldn't ask for more. Kids loved it and felt so special with the heart shaped pizzas! Haven't had liver than quality in a long time! Compliments to the chef

Normally closed on a Tuesday, but as it was Valentines Day it was open, we booked it as soon as we saw the reviews. Lovely friendly staff and nice, warm welcome. We ordered Anchovy Pigeon starters; Mafaldini with Duck Ragu Pork Escalopes main courses; dessert was Triste di Dolci (all 3 of the desserts in one dish) and a lovely bottle of Pinot Grigio. The food was fabulous! Highly recommend.

We were visiting the area for the weekend and found this place on a well known search engine. Even though we arrived at the beginning of service, it was already busy. We hadn’t booked, but were offered the ‘emergency’ table which was tucked away at the back but perfectly acceptable. All the staff who served us were impeccably friendly and efficient. The food is fantastic we had a delicious antipasto platter to share, followed by pasta for me (generous helpings of creamy yumminess), and pizza for my husband freshly baked sourdough base with a generous and sizzling hot topping. No wonder the place is so busy!

"Where do I even begin? The service from the woman behind the bar was shocking. When I inquired about dairy-free options for my son, I was told that nothing could be modified and that they don't cater to allergies at all! I pointed out the menu's claim that they could accommodate such needs, but my concerns were met with an eye roll. I then tried to order him some chips, but was told they were fried in the same oil as dairy and meat products, and since we are vegetarian, that wouldn't work. I asked about the vegan dishes, only to learn that they are also prepared alongside meat products, so there's no guarantee they would actually be vegan. At this point, my daughters had already become excited about eating out and the play area, so I reluctantly decided to go along with it and ordered three sandwiches on granary bread and a child's fish and chips. My son had a packet of crisps. When the sandwiches arrived, they were absolutely terrible. The cheese and onion sandwich consisted of two slices of cheap store-bought bread, some pre-grated cheese, and a few onion slices—without even a hint of butter! It certainly wasn’t inexpensive; we paid £45 for four soft drinks, three sandwiches, and a child's meal. As for the play area, it was concerning—there were sharp screws poking through the wood chips, loose sharp fixtures on top of the slide, and a large exposed electric cable under the swings! We decided to leave swiftly; it was such a disappointing way to end our holiday, when it should have been a lovely final meal before heading home. I was appalled by their attitude towards me—I felt like an inconvenience. The food was awful, and I genuinely recommend avoiding this place if you are vegan or have allergies; even if a dish is labeled vegan, they certainly don’t take the necessary precautions to keep it separate from meat products. It’s truly unfortunate, as the location by the river is beautiful, and we were all so excited to be there, but we left feeling very disappointed. We definitely won't be returning."
