   Arrived and sat around a crowded table, but was a nice interior. We were there for a birthday meal. Menus were given and I had preordered the vegan set menu, was told we could have any of the starters, mains desserts. Starters arrived, food was not as flavourful as expected and bread was slightly stale. Hoped for better mains but they arrived without the ingredients listed on the menu. We asked why this was and server said that they have ran out. This meant my partners meal was essentially meatballs in a tomato sauce. We asked for replacement and they said they couldn’t make the others due to missing ingredients. We ate the mains, they were average. Service staff apologised and said they would give us a drink on the house, requested a Hugo Spritz. Waitress came over explained they had no mint, asked if I would like without. I said yes and she came back 2 minutes later to say they don’t have any elderflower either… couldn’t make any of the drink. We laughed at this point. Dessert menu came out with 5 items crossed off due to lack of ingredients. Service were apologetic but both said they were new to the business and only been there for a week or so. Completely understandable - but it was a shame for lack of ingredients and communication that followed. We wouldn’t return which is a shame as the deal is good. However, food and lack of communication let the place down.

   Excellent food, probably some of the best pasta I have tasted. The service was excellent and the price was great value. It is a small intimate venue, the menu is small but the food is delicious. The staff are brilliant at keeping all of the patrons happy, they are efficient, friendly and welcoming. We were even given a shot of limoncello on the house so how's that for service! It's a really fabulous relaxed ambience with a gorgeous menu and great choices and value of wine, we would definitely visit again.

   Have been here a few times and I love it. Disappointingly, there was no red wine, due to delivery problems,and my favourite portobello mushrooms dish had ran out. The ricotta pasta was delicious though.

   Beautiful little restaurant and wonderful food, everything was so fresh and tasty ! Just a little disappointed that they had no wine other than bottles of white. The waitress made it work though and offered a glass from a bottle that wouldn’t have normally be an option. Overall, a lovely recommendation

   Surprised by the previous guests rating at 4.5 as I had to book an alternative place for lunch in the same area (our first option is closed for lunch Monday and Tuesday)

   Not true, we have been closed only one Monday all day (for unforseable situation) and we gave communication trought socials. We are always opern, 7 days a week included Christmas, Boxing Day etc
