Cute authentic Italian restaurant. The fried calamari was to big and rubbery like the frozen kind you buy to make at home. The dinners are served in fry pans, yet not so hot and the food was just okay. It is much better on a night that isn’t a holiday.

Everything took too long, you expect to wait a while for the food when you have a large party, but waiting to order drinks for an age before the meal was the start of things to come When the food did finally arrive not everyone got their meal at the same time, two of the party waited a further 10 minutes before theirs came along Again the waiter was missing for most of the time, no follow regarding further drinks, eventually he came over and we were able to order A disappointing evening on such a sad occasion - it was a celebration of life dinner for a dear friend who recently passed away I did mention this when I booked, but they still seated us at the closest table to the live music

This was my fourth time coming , but the first time for my very good friend. She was going through a rough patch and I knew what she needed. Great authentic Italian food with superb service- that’s exactly what we got!!! Paola was warm, funny and very helpful.
