Upstairs was busy, downstairs where we were was quieter but still filled up. Staff are amazing and the menu choices were wonderful. The specials sounded delicious too. The atmosphere on a rainy night was comforting and we were well looked after. Our water glasses were regularly filled and we were asked how the food was. It was absolutely delicious - we both had options we hadn’t tried before and were both very happy with our choices. If I was local I would definitely eat there regularly.

Good location, nicely laid out interior and welcoming staff. Menu offered was amazing and varied with a great selection of quintessential Italian delights. Quality of food was outstanding, fresh, flavoursome and good portions - ambience was as expected but we did eat at a quieter time and confident it gets busy due to quality of food on offer. Overall really enjoyed our experience and highly recommended.
