Lovely atmosphere, polite helpful staff. Daughter said its the best lasagne she'd ever tasted.

We ate here before heading to the theatre. The food was excellent and well presented. The service was excellent and the waitress was very friendly and helpful. This restaurant is ideal for either a pre or post theatre visit .

Super breakfast, good value at £14.95 for Magnifico with fresh OJ and hot drink. Service from Valentina was 10/10.

Tasty, authentic Italian dishes in a modern setting. I had a bright and interesting seafood pasta, which had plenty of lovely fresh prawns and mussels and squid. The service was attentive and unobtrusive.

Had dinner here prior to going to the theatre. Glad we booked as busy . Service was efficient meant we had time to share a desert which we were pleased about as when portions of tiramassu passed our table earlier in the evening looked yummy and it was . Also enjoyed an expresso kept me awake well during the performance and on the drive home ? Not cheap but worth it for the occasional treat.

Smallest tuna steak I have ever been served, and for £22! I even had to order some potatoes as the plate was so megre. How the chef thought it was ok to serve I have no idea, but I suppose that's what you get with a chain. Couldn't really say anything as I had guests but that's the first time in years that I've left a restaurant feeling hungry. Not good.

Well where to start. Went for breakfast. Big mistake going to an Italian restaurant, I should have gone to an English cafe. Bacon only panchetta fine if you like greasy fatty steeky bacon,no other option! Multitude of eggs every way you want. I chose poached, unfortunately not runny. Sausage over done. My wife wanted mushrooms on toast, the waitress said no, you have to have an egg as well, but we didn't want an egg! So changed the order for toast and jam with a side of mushrooms. (Rediculous) The toast, well,round pieces of bread 3cm diameter over done not hot with cold butter. Needless to say we are not recommending this place for breakfast. I suggest they stick to olive oil toasted bread with tomato and olives.

Love the location. I dated my wife here, and so is a special place. So glad it survived the pandemic. Had our 2nd anniversary meal here.I am sure the food is excellent as I haven't eaten here for over a year. I can't comment on it, but the coffee is great.

Had lunch here with a few friends and we were really impressed with the food and the service. A nice atmosphere without being pretentious. My seafood linguine was one of the best I've ever had anywhere. Highly recommended.

Absolutely disgusting service. We arrived 8 minutes late and were rudely told that we were late, that set the mood for the evening, well I couldn’t call it an evening as we were abruptly told last orders at 8 and we had to be out by 9. We ordered our food and the only positive thing I can say is the food was good, however I must say the taste was ruined by the hostile atmosphere that was created from the waitress. We felt we were being watched and intruding, which made the whole experience, a 21st birthday, unpleasant. We left feeling deflated, unwanted and upset at the whole experience.
A nice place to have some Italian food.Enjoyed their new seafood risotto. Nice coffee, hot chocolate and breakfast selection. My eggs were a bit bland from the breakfast.
Paul Williamson
Very nice food but very small portions, needed to visit the chip shop when we left.Staff not very friendly, took ages to take order, I wouldn't

We often go breakfast , never disappointed, the magnifico option is good value as it includes juices and beverages, we will be going back next time we are in Stratford on Avon, on sunny days there is the option of sitting outsideKid-friendliness: They have a kids menu which is good

The food is OK but too expensive and I found the adult portions were too small .though the child ones were adequate. The staff are good at thair jobs and friendly.

Good food and nice waitress. But…Saturday night booking for 8.30 and (fortunately as it happens) we arrived early at 8.10. Soon became clear we were expected to leave by 9. Bill was presented without our request. Music was turned off. We still had wine to finish so took the bottle away with us. Why accept a booking for 8.30? We would have gone elsewhere if we’d known. Carluccios used to be great. Not any more sadly.
