    Think I have found my new favourite place 👏 My second visit last Saturday & didn’t disappoint. I brought my Mum up who is in a wheelchair & recovering from surgery (Jaw surgery so eating is an issue as she is very self conscious!) I booked online & asked for a table in a discreet corner, a lovely table was there waiting for us, the staff were so friendly & caring they really put my Mum at ease. The food & service were amazing, Mum chose soft options fish / chicken & she ate the most she has for months 👏 We had dinner after a show it was a great day out & the venue is beautiful & so easy with disabled access. …Already booked my next visit for 17/05…coming up with my sister…determined to convince her she wants a steak dinner as I have my eye on the chateaubriand yum yum yum 😋

    Met with friends who we had not seen for a long while and this was the perfect place for a delicious, relaxed and cheerful reunion. Food was superb - lots of choices and all perfectly prepared, presented and nothing left! Definitely will dine here again.

    First visit in a couple years. Braeseola was wonderful as was the special ravioli. The profiterole was delicious. The one negative relates to our previous visit - the background music as I arrived was low and barely noticeable but the volume increased to a point where had I had my wife across from me, it would have been difficult to hold a conversation. I do not care for loud background music. Maybe we have to dine before 19:00 to avoid the increase in decibels.

    Pleasant environment. Superb service from the waiting staff… let down by the quality of some of the food. The veal Milanese was tough & difficult to slice even with a steak knife, the brocoletti pecorino wasn’t tenderstem as advertised but a very overcooked watery batch of broccoli heads - not great :-/ The pasta was the better of our choices but overall an expensive, sub-average meal.

    We booked a family meal for a special birthday over Easter weekend. The food was excellent. The service was attentive and the price very reasonable for 6 adults. We will absolutely be coming back!
