Cons:

• "The ‘apparently excellent’ calamari was incredibly tough and the Caprese was remarkably basic per the photos."
• "Food is made for local people who haven't travelled but want to feel posh for a night. This food is not Italian."
• "Frozen prawns, cream EVERYWHERE, overdone steaks, lasagna that tastes like a school canteen lasagna."
• "The duck was dry, the food had too much cream and bread. Great Italian food is simple ingredients but great ingredients, there was too much extra and not enough quality."

• "The food, which is one of Italy’s most basic dish (carbonara) I had ordered was made with .... Bacon lardons, not exactly subtle Italian cuisine."
• "Very overpriced food, quality of food was not memorable. I've have better takeaways."
