    Charging $11 for a side of pasta is as a bit much for a $25 order was a bit much. Actually off putting.

    food was okay but the service was the strangest part. we brought a bottle of wine and were seated at a 4 person table. instead of clearing the table, a chair was placed near us with an ice bucket. which was nice i guess? our waitress forgot to tell us about the specials until we asked and also forgot to bring us bread until we asked if that was possible. someone would came up to at least 7 times while we were eating to ask if we were finished with our plates. one of those times i was literally holding a fork and actively eating. overall odd experience, will likely not return.

    Food was tasty enough given the reasonable prices. Service from bus staff was fantastic, but our waiter tried very hard to ignore us and for most of the evening succeeded

    Went Friday noght for restaurant week, food was FABULOUS!! Gnocchi’s in gorgonzola cream, I’ll be dreaming of these for days to come! Had the chix cutlet with prosciutto, spinach topped with cheese & truffle cream sauce, truffle was not too over powering either!! I totally forgot about the parking discount and I paid $30 to park which is absolutely insane!! They should be ashamed of themselves!! Since it was a self kiosk that I had to pay, I also parked my car myself so it screws them out of a tip! I will definitely be back to this restaurant, soo worth it!

    Disappointed to find that the restaurant was a BYO(bring your own drinks).Nothing on the website indicating this! Service good but the restaurant was not busy. My wife was served a different veal dish to what she ordered but the waitress insisted that it was correct.It wasn’t!!!
