Reviews
A very nice and rustic atmospheric family restaurant run by a charming couple over 13 years now, serving authentic Italian food from Naples. and I need to mention the husband was very pleasing and attentive. The food was full of flavour, I could smell the aroma from the gluten free pasta I ordered from far away, and the portions sizes were just right. And the bill was beautifully had written. We truly enjoyed our dinner and time in this satisfying place.
We ordered four main courses. As I don’t know Italian,I couldn’t name the dishes. the pizza “Meat” doesn’t look like a pizza but it’s the best among them. The spaghetti was a bit salty. The lasagna was fine and the mussels were not fresh enough. The service was great and overall it’s not bad but like a bit overrated
Lovely food and lots of choice!, very reasonable prices and great service! Would very much recommend and will be coming back!
Good food and I've had a positive experience before. Unfortunately last time I went on Saturday it two hours from arriving to getting our main course and 1.5 hours to just get a garlic bread starter. so the family was all a bit miserable by then. Its an experienced family run restaurant so maybe this was a one off but I'd be a bit cautious about risking it again
We went here for work back in September and had a delicious meal. So much so that we took a big group of 20 people in for a meal last week. Since our initial visit, the whole place has been refurbished and the menu completely changed. Despite our large group size, we were one of only two tables in the place. The service was glacial and it took three hours to have starters and mains - though some had chosen from the three course menu, we abandoned all hope of dessert at 10pm. The food was to a generally good standard, but it wasn’t worth the wait, I’m afraid to say. The pizza was also not as good as before - the base was tougher and the selection was narrower. After we hyped it up to our colleagues, it was a bit of a disappointment - I hope the team get their pace up and see some more custom come their way.
I used to visit this place regularly and always had excellent food. Tonight I went with my wife and the food was abysmal. The hot starter of baked brie was cold, my main of chicken/Parma ham was disgusting..... My wife's starter was good, however her main was horrific to the point we both called it a night and asked for the bill. They had a set menu on for valentines as well, so the chef should have nailed this as only 6 mains were available. Has this place changed hands? It used to have a welcoming and warm atmosphere with Maria personally welcoming every table. If this has changed hands the owners should at least change the name as Maria has built up an excellent reputation and it's wrong to trade on this. Unfortunately I won't be visiting again.
TERRIBLE! Probably the worst restaurant I’ve ever been to in my life. The decor looks like a hospital. The food was totally gross. The starter - tomato and mozzarella - boring and tasteless. The main - cannelloni was so hot and over cooked it was like it has been belched out of mount Vesuvius - I burnt my tongue - tasteless. The chips were good. The desert - a chocolate sponge - straight out of the microwave. Supposed to come with Vanilla ice-cream but didn’t. It was so bad. I didn’t complain because I didn’t want to ruin my evening. The waiter staff were young, inexperienced but pleasant. I felt sorry for them bringing out plate after plate of absolute garbage. Just won’t go back and certainly don’t recommend. TERRIBLE!!!
The examination began through my entry to the restaurant. As soon as a I had entered, I were greeted by a polite young woman who guided me to my comfortable and spacious table. After reviewing the menu, I had settled on ordered a Pepperoni Pizza in which the Waiter had recommended. One thing that still bugged me, is that on the menu, a lot of the food is in Italian terms, which would never be a problem for an Italian restaurant if they had considered putting a picture next to each pizza, some people can mistake a Calzone for a generic Pizza which is a common mistake I see nowadays. Or the waiter can at least confirm with the customer, what a Calzone is before they order to ensure they are aware what they are buying is what they are expecting. After 20-30 minutes of waiting, presented before me was an undercooked pizza consisting of cold pepperoni and stale bread base, I ask for the future that the chef’s consider cooking the pizza before actually serving their customers. Despite this, service was great and the restaurant had a nice, but slightly cold atmosphere.
Just as the stars say it: great food, excellent service and nice music in the background. We had a wonderful evening. One looking forward to repeat soon.Food: 5/5
Very authentic Italian restaurant. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. We had a pizza and fish but seafood spaghetti looked really good! We will definitely go back to try a few more dishes.
