Great Italian food, served over multiple courses. Lovely staff, knowledgeable and friendly. Chefs choice on the menu is recommended.

Fantastic experience trying the blind menu. 13 well presented dishes, in perfect order with well thought out portion sizes. Certanly a great option for a special occasion.
Ian Hughes
Excellent, amazing, delicious, pricey but still good value. Well
Gareth Clark
Some of the best food I've ever had. Double agnolotti was a particular highlight alongside the lemon meringue tart. The service was exemplary and the drinks were amazing. Will definitely be back.

Beautiful and unique restaurant in the heart of Bristol. Capturing the very best in Italian culinary excellence. Would recommend to anyone!

Poor experience. Ordered the Chef tasting menu and wine flight for 4 people and was very disappointing. The wines are very poor quality (sent one out of four back and gave up trying to select a decent red by the glass). The food was of a good quality but little wow factor for the price and small portions. Overall at £160 per head (£70 service) this is an overpriced and underwhelming place. I’d go as far as to say we felt ripped off to be honest.

Excellent food, beautifully presented. The dishes were explained and suggestions for drink accompaniments were helpful. Staff were great.

We tried the chefs special which was 13 courses between us. Every single dish was absolutely incredible! We were all in agreement that this was some of the best food we’ve ever had. If you’re with a group and are not sure what to order, I recommend this as we all ate dishes we wouldn’t normally order and not a single dish was anything other than exceptional.The staff were lovely and were willing to answer all of our questions and made us feel at home.If you’re in Bristol and love Italian food (or just food in general!), you have to give this place a go.

Absolutely stunning all round. Amazing service, food was incredible and atmosphere delightful, as always. A real hidden gem.

Friendly staff, nice ambience, the food was lovely but very small portions.My chicken dish arrived and I thought they had supplied a starter by mistake.Worst thing for me was being charged £14.00 for a large lager.I won't be going back.
Lovely food and really friendly service. It was all just a bit disorganised though. Menu was quite confusing, drinks had run out, orders got missed. There was a lot of waiting and asking. I think they were busy and possibly understaffed. We all enjoyed it For the price, we would probably try somewhere else next time.

While the food was delicious, it was a really disappointing experience. There was only one other table of diners (on 14th December!). Me and my husband were there for our anniverary. There was no ambiance. The staff started cleaning the kitchen and clearing up around us as we were still eating, and we ate our deserts to the sound of scrubbing and with the smell of chlorine in the air. We felt rushed and unwelcome and it ruined the end of the evening. We paid £260 for our two meals and wine, and at this price I would expect the staff to make us feel welcome until we had finished. Alternatively, they should not have taken our booking if they didn't want to stay open long enough. We paid the full amount as we didn't want to cause a fuss with the waiter (who was kind and attentive and this didn't seem to be his issue). I contacted the manager the next day but they didn't make any attempt to make amends, explain or compensate us.

I booked a table for 4 via OpenTable. With regards to positives, I must say our waitress was fantastic and attentive.It should be more clearly noted however that this is an Italian Tapas style restaurant. As a Spaniard, I find it mildly offensive that the word tapas has now become some sort of synonym for small portions at high price points. The food we had was lovely in flavour, but one scallop and one single tiny arancini to share between four at such a high price point is just not justifiable to me. When it comes to value for money, there are many better options in Bristol.In addition, for some reason they were playing old school hip-hop and at times techno music. As much as I enjoy these genres, I found this strange as it impacted the cosy atmosphere of the restaurant.

For the price we paid I was left very disappointed. We paid £80pp for the chefs menu yet we never actually got to see the menu so had no idea what was coming. The food was ok but we never had the wow factor. The service was decent but it didn’t take away from the cost of what we felt was not up to scratch.

Fantastic food and service. The staff are incredibly friendly and polite and made the evening delightful. The food when presented is well explained by the staff who also tell you about the ingredient sourcing and pairing. Very
