"We chilled out on the upstairs, outdoor veranda, the atmosphere was lovely, calm."
"The restaurant has an open kitchen and a new trendy decor and I feel that all this adds value to the whole experience."
Cons:
"The metal trim surrounding the tables was peeling off and looked like it was being held on with chewing gum."
"Seeing members of staff go outside to smoke cigarettes isn’t at all appealing whilst sat eating in the window area, neither is the smell on their return."
"But the place is so hot inside, and very uncomfortable."
"The place had no ambience or atmosphere at all."
"The wood fire oven doesn't help in creating a warm atmosphere."

"The staff was chatting between themselves and kitchen staff wasn’t professional."
"Unfortunately the staff are struggling and the service is getting worse."

"Microwave lasagna. I had the roof of my mouth burnt off by a microwave lasagna."
"One of us felt it was a little oily but it was more a personal taste as the other two devoured it."
"The ingredients felt cheap, portion sizes were less than expected for the price - the main dishes were good but starters and sides were really bad."
"Then we asked for sausage and chorizo pizza; the waitress forgot to order the pizza and we had to wait 20 min and sadly it was horrible and salty, the worst pizza ever."
Value for Money
Pros:
"With a taste card in hand, it is just ridiculously cheap!"
"Very nice Italian food. VERY reasonably priced."
"We ordered two full English breakfasts and had two coffees each and it was just over £25 with service! Unheard of!"
"The food is good and the price is very reasonable."
"It's affordable and the portions are great."
"Exceptionally good Italian food for an affordable price."
"The food was excellent though, and extremely good value."
Cons:
"The service took a really long time; likely constrained by the pizza oven capacity!"
"The starters, however, were very expensive for their sizes."
"Good service but at the same time very pushy as they were busy so they wanted us to leave after we have finished our meal."
"The seafood risotto was not cooked well with the rice being a bit hard and too firm to chew properly."
"Overcooked risotto served on a lake of non-extra virgin olive oil."
"Acceptable for a quick bite if you're in a rush but the price doesn't scream value for money."
