Loved the beef pasta, and the fried calamari. Aranchini and truffle pasta were good but the pasta portion was insanely little. And finally The mushroom sweet is A MUST

Great food - the King Prawn and Monkfish curry and the Sea Bass were both outstanding, as was the Artic Roll dessert. Great choice of drinks too.
