First time here as I was staying the night in the wagon.Could not fault the food or the service.Everything on the menu was reasonably priced.

My sons loves this place so we took him for his birthday. The staff are great and nice atmosphere for such a small eating area. However, I wasn't impressed by my pizza. Wasn't a great deal of pepperoni on it and it wasn't cut into slices. Not sure if this is normal of this Italian restaurant. But a right job trying to cut it into slices using the normal fork and knife.

My family and I are regular customers at this lovely Italian restaurant. Food is always delicious, and it has anauthentic Italian taste. Besides fantastic food, the ambient is very relaxing with friendly staff. They are extremely attentive and would go step above to make sure you're totally satisfied. Domenico is our favourite person there even though they're all amazing!They also serve Sunday lunch, which is perfectly cooked every time.The dessert menu has a well selected choice of the most popular cakes and coffees. The restaurant is cosy and suitable for couples, parties, or family gatherings.If you haven't visited this place yet, then you should definitely try it.

Saw this recommended on Trip advisor and wasn’t disappointed. Food and service were amazing and they accommodated our dietary needs well too! Highly recommended

Lovely find, and we do enjoy an Italian. The only fault appears to be a language barrier. Peretti is not Heineken! And warm brownie is not Brandy. Other than that, it was a good experience.

Wendy Wray

Food was great in general. Chips a bit on the crispy side for my tastes. Service could have been a bit faster. They were packed though. Parking is very limited too.

We found this restaurant as we were staying nearby & what a find! From the second we walked in the door we were all very well looked after by all the members of staff, especially by the host who was absolutely fantastic - the banter absolutely made the night. The food was wonderful, great sized portions and great value. We couldn’t fault our visit & if we are ever in the area again we will be back without a doubt.
