You need to try the mushroom pasta! So many people talk about how good the lasagna is (which it is), however, their pasta is also incredible. Have one of the best evenings ever!

I have eaten here since its inception and have always had a good time, the food and ambience are really good. I was hoping for a little bit more from the recent refurbishment but it remains a good place for a beer and a pizza
