"Avoid if you are vegetarian. No knowledge of dietary restrictions.Partner ordered a dish marked as vegetarian on the menu. Came out with parmesan on it, which contains animal rennet and is NOT vegetarian like most cheeses. We assumed it was a different cheese at first, as i’ve never seen a restaurant add parmesan to veggie dishes.As we ate, he thought it tasted like parmesan. The chef confirmed they do add parmesan. We complained that their vegetarian option was not actually vegetarian and the manager’s attempt to resolve the situation was dire.The manager argued “If you don’t eat animal products, you shouldn’t be ordering pasta with ricotta.” Another member of staff appeared to tell us: “Well if you’re vegan, it says it comes in a butter sauce in the menu, and you ate that?” We explained repeatedly that nobody is vegan, and that cheese and butter are suitable, just not cheeses containing animal rennet. This went in one ear and out the other. Was like talking to a brick wall.The manager said we could have a maximum of 10% off (equated to £5 off the bill, when the dish was £13.50), which was suddenly able to be increased to 20% off when we told them that was insulting.Portion sizes also tiny (5 pieces of ravioli for £13.50). Unbelievably disappointing experience."

Lovely food reasonably pricedFound the staff to not communicate with each other as 3 times by 3 different members of staff we were asked if desert was required to which it wasn't
Stuart
We really enjoyed the food, both starters and mains. The standard of attention and service was impressive. If I can make one small comment. Why serve my prawn linguini mostly but not completely off the shell?

Can't wait to visit again. The server recommended the Burrata to me and I'm so glad she did as it was beautiful !! The veal main was stunning too however very filling portion. Sad there was no Tiramisu on the menu !! Please reinstate this dessert and we will be back !

Enjoyed our meal but felt very rushed. Our table was booked for 7pm on a Thursday but from about 9pm we felt under pressure to leave. The music was turned off and a few of the lights. It was obvious the staff wanted to go home. I've always had good meals here but after last night I won't be in a rush to go back.

Arrived on Monday 8th August for a booked table at 6pm, 5 of us seated by friendly waitress, had plenty of options for food, we all had starters, then I had a Basilicata pizza and it was incredible, had a bottle of Malbec which was lovely and smooth, the service was immaculate, waitresses seemed genuinely happy to be there and service was with a smile, this is the third time I’ve visited and we will be going back soon, highly recommended

An excellent restaurant that does not live up to its usual standard. We were greeted by the manager almost as if we were disturbing him, this followed through our visit with his service, it was appalling and came across as very rude! The waiting staff however were very pleasant and hard-working. We ordered Arancini, Bread, a pizza and carbonara. The beef ragu arancini were bland and mushy inside, one ball had cheese inside the other didn't but also it just tasted like corned beef hash, with no risotto in sight! The bread was dry and stale as if it had been cut at the start of service and left out. The sausage pizza was tasty, the fennel sausage and spicy sausage although sparing were very fl...
