Tucked away but what a find. the staff were amazing, friendly and so helpful when choosing dishes - ALL of which were amazing... The wine was also exactly what you'd expect it do be and slipped down easily to compliment the food. The atmosphere was just right with tables laughing and the noise level was just right. Highly recommend this place and will certainly come back for more.

Fantastic food. A warm welcome, a lovely atmosphere. The seating was very dating and worn. The waiter was polite and took put order and drinks the wine was lovely. Lovely atmosphere with people sitting at the bar. The food got brought out and was incredible. The only thing we were missing our meatballs and this was quite delayed bringing these. No real further interaction or mention or dessert. The food and the atmosphere was great but maybe up the service a little and the deco, and I would highly recommend the food, and would come again
