Came here for dinner yesterday and would definitely recommend. Our waiter was warm and friendly.

The service fast, with out started and mains being served within minutes if eachother. The pasta came out very hot, it was apparently how fresh it was.

The atmosphere of the restaurant was very clean and well decorated. The patio/outdoors seating was on a quiet street - we would have loved to sit out here but it was too busy!

The food here is genuinely very good. We started with burrata and beef carpaccio, both fresh, nicely presented, and super delicious. For mains, we had the tagliatelle with seafood, and a tuna pizza, everything tasted very good and felt properly Italian rather than touristy.

The service was also very friendly and welcoming throughout.

That said, the waiting time was excessive. It took over an hour for the starters to arrive and around 1 hour 40 minutes for the mains. It seemed like the delay might have been related to the seafood tagliatelle, which could also suggest that the seafood is prepared fresh, but we weren’t given any real explanation, only an apology. What made it more noticeable was that several tables who arrived after us were served much earlier, so it felt like something may have gone wrong with our order.

If the kitchen timing and communication improve, this place has the potential to be excellent, since the food is really excellent.

We stopped by this restaurant hoping for something a bit special. In the end, the lasagna Bolognese turned out to be the best choice, especially compared to the spaghetti carbonara, which were quite dry. The cheese used tasted like goat cheese and had a strong smell with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Overall, it wasn’t quite what we’ve experienced in Italy or in other places.

That said, the service was friendly and not intrusive, which we appreciated. The place itself was clean, including the restroom, and the atmosphere in the dining area was calm and not noisy.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has a lovely atmosphere. I ordered the seafood tagliatelle. Maybe I’m too picky, but I found the sauce overly salty, and several of the mussel shells were empty, also the plating is inconsistent sometimes it comes with cherry tomatoes sometimes not…. which was a bit disappointing.

The food was good but unfortunately the rude service from a specific waitress has brought my rating down significantly.
My partner speaks spanish where as i don’t, she took on the role as the primary speaker when ordering our food. We had ordered a Diavola pizza and Carbonara pasta. When the order came we received the Diavola, however the Carbonara was replaced with a Carbonara pizza. My partner explained to the waitress that we had ordered the pasta not the pizza, asking for a change of food to suit our order.
The waitress very rudely explained to my partner that when asked if it was a Carbonara pizza or pasta, my partner said pasta. she did not. As i could understand a bit of the conversation, i could confirm that the waitress did not even ask the question.
She then proceeded to tell my partner that she should have listened properly and she will not be taking the order back to the kitchen as it was my partners fault for not listening. we where extremely taken aback with her harsh attitude towards us. my partner was shocked and almost brought to tears.
Fortunately we called over the manager who apologised no questions asked and kindly retrieved our correct order. which we were extremely grateful for.
This experience nearly brought my partner to tears, which is not what anyone wants when they just want a nice meal to eat.
