Another great experience at DeVine - wonderful lunch with exceptional food, wines and cracking service. It left us wanting more ....... so we booked to come back for dinner that evening! We had an outstanding dinner too - make sure you give the Squid Ink Pasta a go! Thank you to all the team for a wonder lunch and dinner experience! See you again soon.

Yet another wonderful experience at DeVine - the food was sublime, wine list outstanding and service friendly and reassuringly professional. No wonder most tables in the dining room were full on a Monday evening! Make sure you share the straters and try the Burrata (with a twist) and the Polpette ( you will fight over them, so make sure you order more than you think you want) ! The Croquette and Zuchini flowers were fab too! Ocean Trout perfectly cooked and Spatchcock was also done with twist ! We had to order a second shaved cabage salad, as it was so good - don't forget the delicious focaccia and butter! Delicious wines to boot! Thank you Team DeVine for another wonderful evening - we will be back !

Excellent food, attentive service, and the owner was again a pleasure to chat with. This was our second visit and we were very pleased. I had the parpadelle and a steak, my wife had ravioli. Both superb. The foccacia bread and zucchini blossoms were to die for.

Devine is always terrific. Great friendly staff, good advice on wine and food. Steak was excellent - tender and rich flavours. Loved the polenta chips and the spicy sauce with them was perfect - strong but not overpowering. Shredded cabbage also a treat and good contrast to the rest. 10:/10
