Old school trattoria in Catford. The chef is from Naples, and seafood is his speciality. The bruschetta had the right amount of garlic - a rare treat in the modern Italian cuisine. The caprese salad could do with a little bit more olive oil. We ordered fritto misto for two, a feast of fried fish, calamari, scampi, sauté of mussels and cockles. Genuine and tasty, the sauté could do with an additional pinch of salt and the presentation could be slightly refreshed, although the 80s style scampi salad really reminded me of my childhood. The tiramisù is homemade and absolutely delicious, a real treat since this dessert has become very popular and generally overprocessed in other restaurants. We'll be back to try a few seafood pasta dishes!

Discreetly nestled in the heart of Catford, as soon as you step inside, you're transported to Italy. The food is exquisite, especially for seafood enthusiasts, and beautifully presented. Whether it's a romantic dinner, a family gathering, or a night out with friends, it caters to all occasions.

Nice experience and really good food. The serving took a bit of time though.

I’ve eaten Italian all over London, from small family places to Michelin star. This little corner in Catford has the most satisfying Italian seafood I’ve eaten anywhere in the UK. Simple, elegant, excellence.

My husband and I are very lucky to live just down the road from this wonderful restaurant! We have dined here many times now and everything is always fantastic. The food is delicious, fresh and beautifully flavoured; we are steadily working our way through every pasta dish with each visit but our favourite is the linguine zucchini e gamberetti. It is SO good! The ambience is very zen and feels homely. The team are so welcoming and friendly, always attentive and happy to answer any questions or give recommendations. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and the portion sizes are generous. We love coming here and would highly recommend it!

Faultless, everything was perfect, from the service to the food to the wines. Hands down the best Italian I’ve been to in the UK.

All the flavours were fantastic. I was just a little disappointed on how little octopus was given for the price. Other than that everything was great. A bit of a wait but there was a really large table so it was to be expected.

First time having dinner in Catford and the hosts/owners were fantastic. Real conversations from people who cared.Highly recommend for a date night with fantastic ambiance and some of the kindest staff.
As an Italian I am so happy to have found this hidden gem! Delicious authentic food and splendid service all served up with Italian music and great atmosphere. Can't recommend enough!

I had a great meal with my partner last night and the service was friendly and helpful to all the questions I had.The bruschetta with the prawns was a favourite for us both. We will definitely be back soon. And thank you for the picture you took of us just before we left .

This is the best seafood I’ve had in London. The chef is amazing, the food is authentically Napoli and the restaurant is just lovely. I bring my parents and friends here whenever they visit. The seafood pasta and seafood zuppa (stew) are both incredible. As are the calamari and muscle starters are both amazing. They do gluten free options.Dietary restrictions: They can make the dishes gluten free if you ask, and the chef was happy to make a different sauce for one dish where we couldn’t eat an ingredient.

Food was exceptional, staff friendly and attentive and for 2 main meals, a starter and 2 glasses of wine it was £50 with tip which I thought was excellent value given the qualityAlso as soon as you step inside you feel like you're in the Mediterranean which is a big bonus but if you're eating around 6pm it can be on the quiet side which is fine
