"My wife and I went for a meal to celebrate our 25th (Silver) wedding anniversary. Things started ok, ordered the seafood sharing platter for starters. I had a pasta dish, my wife the lamb shank (at £25). The starter came and it was really very good. Here is the end of the good bits! My pasta dish was fine, nothing special, but perfectly fine. However, my wife 's slow cooked lamb which should after 6hrs (as claimed) be falling off the bone, wasn 't. In fact it couldn 't be prised off of it! Unfortunately the waiter or manager checked on us quite soon after our meals were brought out. I said mine was fine but my wife stayed silent as she wasn 't yet sure. But the time I 'd eaten mine, my wife had given up with well over half of the lamb remaining on the bone. When he came over to clear the plates my wife said that she was unable to eat the lamb as it was so tough and sinewy still. He didn 't seem very happy with us for saying anything negative about the food so she demonstrated to him and he finally agreed it shouldn 't be like that and took the plate away. From then on we were pretty much ignored, no apology, no offer of a different dish or anything. After 20 minutes we were asked if we wanted desserts, at first we said yes until we discovered there was nothing we wanted so asked for the bill. He took £9 off the bill for a £25 dish that my wife couldn 't eat. Then when we said that we didn 't expect to pay for that dish he argued with us and said my wife was wrong, there was nothing wrong with it and that it was our fault! Not wishing to completely ruin our anniversary, we paid and went elsewhere for a lovely dessert! We won 't be back! Awful service, rude, arrogant manager, below average food."

Nice place. Starters lovely, main courses had no taste at all. Love giving good reviews to restaurants but this was quite simply poor. Cooked better at home for a fraction of the price. Are we going to get a nasty reply for giving an honest opinion?! View menu

The best Italian restaurant outside of Italy! My husband and I went here for dinner when we were staying near Ringwood. We were so glad we chose this place as the food was so delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed it and their cocktails are great too. We couldn’t fault the service, they were so great.

Visited on Tuesday 02 May 2023 with a friend for dinner. Received a very warm welcome from the staff. Food was delicious, really tasty, hot and well presented. Also, really like that we had a decent amount of rest between starter and main. It was a quiet evening and the patron came and had a chat with us. While there an elderly couple came in, they were clearly local regulars and were a bit infirm, it appeared they had ordered food in advance. The staff set up a lovely table for them and it all had the feeling of a 'date ' night. So very lovely. Highly recommend!!!

Went here for dinner family of 5 been before quite a few times but hadn’t been in a while. Food was 10/10 we all left saying how amazing the meal and service was. Always made very welcome and the lady waitress(from Ukraine) was lovely she noticed when our drinks were nearly empty and asked if we would like another and was so attentive she really is a gem. We all had prawn cocktail with avocado which was so fresh. Pizzas were great took some home and tried my mums meal which was the chicken in mushroom sauce which was delicious I will have that next time. Thank you all for the great food and service.

On visiting this restaurant twice in one month, both times were experienced by bad service, the first being that the side order did not arrive until half way through the meal and the second time, the starters that came were for a different table, so only 2 of our party had starters while the rest had to wait about 10 minutes for the right ones to come, also the menu needs updating as it advertises that they do gluten free pizzas, which is not the case and one member of our party is gluten and dairy intolerant so had to have a pasta meal instead which was not ideal, am sorry to say that we won’t be rushing back there anytime soon, that being said the meals we had were of good quality.

This was going to be a treat by friends for looking after their dog for a few days and started off well,starters were ok, but two mains, risotto and salmon ravioli, we’re not very nice at all, and when we explained to the manager he just came up with excuses and seemed to infer we were wrong! We all had an espresso martini to finish, but they didn’t seem as good as the last time, weaker. The waitresses let themselves down a bit, one cleared plates while I was still eating, and another picked up a piece of cutlery she’d dropped on the floor, wiped it on the table cloth and added it to the setting she was laying! Our fiend asked for the bill and noticed the two bottles of wine hadn’t been adde...
