Booked a table for 8 guests with no idea of the layout of the restaurant. We ended up with a great table which we could all enjoy and chat. Great menu choice for gluten free in the party. Service was excellent. Attentive staff. Food was even better. Mushroom Risotto with truffle oil was superb. Highly recommended

The meal was lovely. There were 7 of us. We had our own space up on the mezzanine. Service was top class with friendly of and entertaining waiters. We all ordered 3 courses off the pre-theatre menu and not one morsel was left. The food was really tasty, well presented and good portions. I had the the vegetarian platter and I am not a vegetarian it was delicious- butternut squash lasagne, mushroom arrincini, and gnocchi with basil pesto. I would definitely have it again. Highly recommend the nicest Italian meal I have had in a long time and excellent value of money.

We enjoyed a lovely meal at one of our favourite restaurants. Prawn starters and minestrone soup starters were excellent, as was sirloin and salmon mains . We were gifted a gift voucher which was great and something so useful. Would recommend definitely

I booked a table for a pre Christmas ballet dinner and had to amend the booking last minute a couple of times to increase numbers.The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating and on arrival we were given both the pre theatre and Christmas menu to choose from,no pressure to select the more expensive one.The food was lovely,arrived in good time and is excellent value for money.I’ve booked here for many family/group celebrations and look forward to returning soon.

Food was as lovely as ever but the staff were very glum and I felt there was a bad atmosphere. Not a smile or any engagement and as it was our Christmas lunch with friends we left feeling a bit flat

Staff not very friendly. We were left standing in the entrance waiting for our table. Staff looked at us and ignored us till one of the waitresses came and took us to our table. The restaurant was cold and one daughter ate with her coat on while the other wore a scarf. Food over priced for what it was. I've never been served seafood pasta wrapped in tin foil and smothered with cheese. The cheese stuck to the foil which meant you had to scrape the food off it. Chef might want to rethink that one. Cocktail, Bellini, was probably the worst one I've ever had.
