    The best dinner in ages. Every course was delicious. The Parmesan butter with the sourdough, I could have eaten that for seconds. The lasagne lived up to the hype, the garlic bun was crisp and so garlicky and rocket salad was simple but the perfect side. Yum. I hate tiramisu but decided to try it and I’m so glad I did as it was perfect along with the chocolate sorbet. Loved the little venue and the staff were all welcoming. Wished the deli was open when we came as I’d definitely have been taking some bits home with us.

    Food was good but nothing outstanding or special. Veggie lasagne quite boring. Service was fine but no table check back done at any point throughout the meal.

    First visit to Tom’s Pasta, wasn’t too busy while we were there but I can see why it gets booked quick as it’s quite small. The service was okay, it would’ve been nice to have been explained the menu- the only thing we were told is that the only drinks you could get were cocktails, all others had to be purchased at a separate bar which was a bit off putting for us personally as there was a big crowd directly in front of the bar. We were served a 3 course meal within 45 minutes which was crazy quick and didn’t leave you much time to enjoy. Starter- shared the burrata (I’d recommend ordering more bread as it only came with a small slice) however £8- very steep and more bread was £4- wild for a starter! Main- beef shin lasagna and beef shin ragu- very tasty, the lasagna is truly the main event, couldn’t fault it. Not much range to the menu- lots of lasagna and same flavours. Dessert- tiramisu- tasty but sadly a smaller portion when compared to photos online which was a shame. My spoon was bigger. I’m glad we tried it but wouldn’t rush back in all honesty.

    Our waitress was lovely. Everything came out in a timely manner and great price for the portions served. The setting isn’t what I expected and feel that lets it down slightly, feels very school canteen vibes. The only place I’ve been to that doesn’t actually acknowledge a birthday, so not sure why they ask for the reason for booking. Rating on our food below: Beef shin lasagne 7/10 - quite dry, becomes one by the last few bites, somewhat mushy but good flavour and great amounts of cheese. Beef shin & nduja lasagne 8.5/10 - actually quite spicy which was enjoyable and think the nduja made it less dry than the other because it was more oily. Tiramisu 9.5/10 - Honestly, so good! Very light, like a cloud and really tasty, even if you’re not a normal lover of tiramisu… Parmesean butter 10/10 Olives 5/10 Overall, enjoyed - nice little spot.

    Amazing! Lives up to the hype. Lasagne was 10/10. 1 star down for service as we were a bit rushed out, hadn’t finished dessert and they brought the card reader over to pay. Understand it is super busy though!
