Service

Pros:

  • "Staff welcomed us and congratulated us on our engagement, showing genuine care and attention."
  • "The service was so personal and attentive, with lovely touches like a candle in my dessert and a postcard wishing me a happy birthday."
  • "Super friendly, attentive staff. The manager interacted with us in a genuine, personable way throughout."
  • "Service was great, they’re friendly and gave recommendations."
  • "We were surprised with complimentary fizz when we arrived, and the service was very attentive."

Cons:

  • "Sitting at the bar, we could see a very messy kitchen - needs to keep it spotless if you’re going to do counter seating."
  • "Felt rushed when coming in, and I’d expect the waiter to dry the table after he spilled the water."
  • "We waited some time for food and even had to ask to order our food because we were forgotten about."
  • "Service was very slow; we had to ask to order our food and one dish never arrived."
  • "The service was a bit disorganised but the staff are all polite - clearly just some teething issues with remembering table numbers."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The food was all delicious, literally not a bad thing to say about anything! The lobster pasta and risotto were memorable."
  • "Best Italian food I’ve had outside of Italy. Every dish was unique in its flavour."
  • "The truffle and crab pasta was delicious, so nice that we ordered another plate to share."
  • "Food was some of the best we have ever eaten, service was amazing and overall a great experience."
  • "The courgette risotto with goats curd and the black spaghetti with mussels were highlights."

Cons:

  • "The picture here of this delicious yet small octopus salad was £11, which felt overpriced."
  • "The bone marrow could do with a little less spices as I did not taste much of the fatty bone marrow itself."
  • "I can't ignore the truffle pasta which was not good, every other dish was delicious though."
  • "The portions of the food compared to the price for me there is no relation. It is a quality product, but eating Italian food means an experience of flavors and also good portions."
  • "The pasta dishes were barely seasoned and the pasta was undercooked and stuck together in places."

Ambiance

Pros:

  • "Absolutely gorgeous interior, lots of people dining in the front room with the bar, and a great playlist that put me in a great mood."
  • "Lovely environment, very kind, knowledgeable and cheery team."
  • "The restaurant had a great ambiance, an excellent friendly service."
  • "Fantastic venue very well laid out, with original Art deco features."
  • "The restaurant is beautiful and very pleasant. The food was divine!"

Cons:

  • "They haven’t figured out how to make their space work yet - it felt like an entrance hall rather than a cozy restaurant."
  • "The menu is confusing, your supposed to order various plates from different sections."
  • "The selection is quite small, so we expected good things, unfortunately, we found it quite bland and stodgy."
  • "The lighting in the back room is a bit off - only criticism."
  • "The music was a bit grating, which did affect the ambiance."
