Love this restaurant, our new fave place to go for Sunday lunch. The main menu looks amazing, but we have only had the Sunday lunch. The atmosphere is lovely and warm, the food is beautiful and the staff are warm and friendly. They also make an amazing Aperol Spritz!
To start the cocktails we’re absolutely bang on. Sat at a nice warm welcoming bar hosted by emie who’s personality sparkled as bright as my first French 45. Followed by an amazing boulevardier cocktail off the festive menu made by Erfan might have had one or 2 of them because yeah just delicious. At the table the beef tartare was my favourite out of the 5 we had followed by the gambaroni The batter was spot on and also in my top 3 was the burrata very refreshing withing the mix of tapas order we shared so all in all i would definitely give my experience a 10 /10 and can’t wait to come back again. Heard nothing but good things about the Sunday lunch so I might have to get back this Sunday to try some belly pork
We had our first visit today to celebrate my birthday and we werent disappointed. The restaurant is beautifully set out, the staff are friendly and helpful and the food was impeccable. We loved it so much we have booked again for next week and this is now probably going to be our regular eatery . 5 stars all the way and see you next week 💜
Immaculately turned out and on a very cold night was warm and welcoming. Beautifully laid out Drinks and Food brought quite quickly and staff were quick to clear plates, but not overly pushy - very good. Food was incredibly good and portion sizes generous; definitely recommended as a medium cost but great value night out!
The ristorante was lovely, the atmosphere and ambience of the place was excellent. The service was excellent although quiet when we arrived at 1800. The food was amazing. I had a pizza which was delicious, lovely crisp base. My husband had a pasta dish and my stepdaughter had a chicken dish, all of which were fresh and tasty. Will definitely be returning.
