Pasta Dishes

Pros:

• "The pasta was freshly made at the place. The dishes were tasty and there was enough sauce to the pasta."

Cons:

• "Unfortunately, the pasta was not al dente but overcooked and soggy."
• "The pasta went cold really quickly or may be wasn’t hot enough when it served."
• "Pasta combinations seemed a bit odd and 'out the box'. Quite a lack of flavour was consistent across all pasta dishes."
• "The pasta was more than aldente. The flavours were predominantly salty and creamy."
• "The dishes were so bland, lacking in flavour and underwhelming."

Food Quality and Taste

Pros:

• "The croquettes (aubergine, nduja, ricotta salata & honey) we liked them that much we ordered a second plate."
• "Flavoursome, attentive service. Quite enjoyed the meal."
• "The ravioli from the main dishes were spectacular, tasting fresh and so full of flavor."
• "The starters we had were amazing (croquettes, panko lasagna, burrata, tomato salad)."

Cons:

• "The pasta dishes lacked flavour and the pasta didn’t taste homemade."
• "Overall the quality of the food was unsatisfying."
• "The food was fine, service was confused and was sat at the kitchen counter looking into a dirty, messy kitchen."
• "The food.... Such a shame. The pasta was more than aldente."
• "The food was aesthetically pleasing but for the price I paid I felt like I could get the same quality at a cheaper price elsewhere."
