Had dinner here with my family. Appetizers were good but maybe a bit small for the price. Main food was all good and came out hot! The place is cosy inside and the staff were very pleasant. Overall very good.

The food was exceptional. We shared the burrata salad, chips, pizza (vege option), beetroot carpaccio and olives. Every dish was delicious we went back for seconds of the chips and burrata salad. Great and extensive wine list. The service was friendly and the bar is beautifully set out with a great atmosphere. Will 100% be back
