    The experience reminds me of a traditional Italian trattoria in a city neighbourhood. There was a good mix of regulars and city visitors which added to the cosy ambience. The furnishings and decor were a good blend of traditional and contemporary with subtle lighting. The staff were professional, welcoming and knowledgeable about the food and wine. The value for money on the set lunch menu was astonishing. The food was traditional, with a good choice and quality and well cooked and presented.

    Had a great experience from start to finish. Warm welcome on arrival the the waitress was very helpful explaining the menu to make sure we didn’t order more food than we can eat. All staff very attentive throughout and the food was outstanding. Would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely head back soon. Even when asking to pay the bill we did not have to wait long to get it and pay it. Great work from all the staff you really made it an enjoyable experience.
