    My feedback is respectful and true. This has been my third visit and I shall not return. I know food and service. Portions sizes are too small- calamari etc Prices do not reflect main course prices $4 for Parmesan cheese-why? No salt and pepper Fries- too small/ mean portion size Meat balls - pork sausage meat taste- fatty. End.

    We as a group of 4 had a great night at the restaurant. Nicely prepared meals with very authentic Italian flavours. The waiters were attentive as well as entertaining. We will be back!

    One of our very favourite places to enjoy some wonderful Italian food and soak up the fantastic atmosphere. Stunning food, wonderful home made pasta dishes, fantastic wine - a wonderful gem of a restaurant. It is our quick visit to Italy, I close my eyes, taste the pasta and I am back in Italy. In gratitude Ingrid Graze and family
