    Lovely evening with friends. Service was great and given by friendly and competent staff. Steak was cooked just as I asked it to be. Portion sizes were decent. All in all, very happy, thank you! We’ll be back for Sunday lunch next…

    Was not sure whether to give it 3 stars. The staff is lovely and the ambiance is really good, but the food is not mind-blowing. The bread leaves a lot to wish for and it took 30 minutes for them to bring our second course, which made us quite impatient... None of the staff apologised or acknowledged this was the case. I had a hard time finding actual meat in the cotoletta we were served which was essentially just a big block of breaded fat... The pasta was very good. Cocktails were ok. I'd say go for the vibe and maybe the pasta. Don't know that I'll be going back
