  • "A bit on the expensive side, typical overcharge for a small plate of inexpensive spaghetti with a hyped name - £22 for fettuccine."
  • "Ample seating options inside & out which is always a plus in the summer weather!! Im giving a 4 star because its pretty expensive."
  • "The man on reception allocating tables was unbelievably rude, refusing to answer my questions about which tables were available."
  • "Food is tasty, although overpriced."
  • "Food was excellent, service was a nightmare: It took them over an hour to bring us our food."
  • "I don't mind the food not being tasty, that's a matter of taste but adding a 15% service fee to our bill and also keeping our cash change, well, that's just bad service."
  • "Found it overpriced for the portion size and quality. £18 for a ‘large’ chicken salad was in fact very small and barely had any chicken."
  • "Scammers! Be careful if you go there, they charged me for 2 extra cocktails when I was there."
  • "The best Italian food I've ever tasted!!!Authentic recipes, even better than the quality you get in Italy itself! Many celebrities flock to this restaurant for good quality Italian dishes, so maybe you'll brush shoulders with Mathew Mconaughey!"
