    The food was exceptional, took me right back to Italy. The service was great, maybe too good, because we felt a little rushed there was not much time between courses and we left in a bit of a food coma.

    We had the Tutto Bene with the addition of half a dozen oysters. Everything was magnificent. The service was warm and friendly, and because we go there twice a year, the owner and his son have been able to recognise us and we are welcomed. The food is imaginative and very tasty, and the wine selection is great, with something for every taste and budget.
