Great Restaurant, reasonably priced and quick service with great food. Atmosphere for a Wednesday night in January was really good.

This is an institution of the area and is widely regarded as a great venue. Honestly I think the atmosphere and service can't be faulted but the quality of the food (I ordered half and half pasta pizza, potato skins and an affogato) for the price is dismal. £5 for potato skins seems very expensive. The pasta had very little to no flavour to it, the pizza was okay though for the price certainly not as good as newer pizzerias such as Flint. I did enjoy the affogato though. I would recommend going once for the experience and avoiding the pasta

Fantastic place for families, groups or a meal for two. Huge menu and generous portions. Service was quick and the food delicious.

We came here tonight for our friend?s birthday, the food was absolutely fab and our waiter Thomas was especially great even serenading the whole restaurant with us singing happy birthday and xmas songs. Thanks so much to all the staff and especially Thomas you babe.

Tuesday night and it was heaving. Superb food, lovely staff and a warm atmosphere. Highly recommendDietary restrictions: The menu is clearly itemized with GF, D, V & VE options by each dish

This is such a cool place. Great food, great service. It's very popular, so expect to wait, but it's well worth it.

Good value, family friendly, local neighbourhood Italian. Fast friendly service. Would return again but not a destination place for us. Seems ideal for local families.

Absolutely amazing food and service! Could not recommend this place any more.Complementary bread basket is a nice touch to start, and the food is always fresh and comes out really quickly. Good sized portions too so definitely worth the money!Usually have to wait 20-30 minutes, depending on time, but that?s not an issue, as the food is definitely worth the wait!Relatively good pricing too, spending around £20pp for 2 courses and drinks!

Really, really don't get the hype about this place.Starter was pretty tasteless, But edible. Pasta was falling apart, sauce tasted like nothing, and the smoked salmon that was in it, was properly fishy - then the pasta dish had been sweetened with something, honey or sugar, but just a super strange way to do the recipe. Pasta was sent back, fair enough, but nobody seemed to care.

First time visit and wasn?t disappointed. Food was delicious and matched by the service, especially Thomas who was tremendous and made us feel like family. Will definitely be back!

Very good food and friendly staff. But when you sit there to enjoy a glass of vino they become quite unfriendly and make it uncomfortable to finish your glass of wine by bringing you the bill without being asked for it and look at you angrily:/
