    Beautiful Italian cuisine served by the most friendly and welcoming staff. The restaurant looks very modern from the outside and on the inside is very tasteful. A perfect place for couples or family dining. The menu offered a delightful selection of our Italian favourites and they did not disappoint. The pasta was perfectly aldente and the sauce was just right both in flavour and quantity. Tiramisu is a must for us in an Italian restaurant and again this didn’t disappoint. We finished off with an amazing, chilled, homemade limoncello. Best I’ve ever tasted! Definitely worth a visit when in London.

    I booked this high tea experience based on some TikTok reviews, and it did not disappoint. The space is absolutely stunning, making it a perfect choice for tourists. The food was delicious, and I was pleasantly surprised when our wonderful server mentioned that both the food and tea were unlimited. However, after trying everything, we were completely satisfied and didn’t need seconds. It was a truly memorable experience!

    I chose to sit outside (with so many people coughing) and my survivor was just amazing. She was attentive, funny and so sweet! Food was delicious as well.

    We had a day trip into London and we all really wanted Italian. Seeing that this restaurant made its own pasta was just fantastic so we had to try it! I had the lobster pasta which was really tasty, my daughter had the boar and my husband had the vongole which was also super. We had some nice wine to compliment the dishes. Despite it being incredibly busy the waitress was able to get us seated quite quickly. Service was very friendly - the whole experience was fantastic
