Waiting staff were friendly and efficient and there is a lot of choice on the menu across all courses. We shared a small anti-pasti plate to start between three which was the perfect size (it would probably be big enough for a main for one person). And I had the Amalfini pizza which was delicious. The portion size is good, the ingredients fresh and there's a promotion of 15% on Monday & Tuesday if you sign up to Club IR (which is free to do). The venue itself was busy and lively, but not too noisy and there is outdoor seating which would be lovely in the warmer weather. With the discount and optional service charge, our meal was £56 pp which included 2.5 courses (with the sharing platter for a starter) and a bottle of Prosecco, so I would consider it somewhere to go for a treat/celebration, but would definitely recommend and visit again.

Loved it. Very good service. Most of the food was excellent, better than expected. Only de lasagna and the tiramisu dissapointed, hence 4 stars, but the rest was truly remarkable, plus the price is fair, specially the cocktails. We'll go back
