Ate at this restaurant with my husband last night. The service was great but the food was tasteless. The bruschetta was unpleasant. The bread was stodgy, no fresh basil but some dried green herb sprinkled around the plate. The main courses did not fare much better and was tasteless, but also had the same dried green herb around the plate.... More

It was a lovely meal, we both had fish. Not perfect or outstanding but certainly not disappointing. We didnt get there until 10.30 so were glad they let us eat but by 11.30 when we tried to order coffee/dessert, you could tell they didnt want us too. Which was a shame as we were pleased with everything until then. The... More

Sorry to spoil it but nothing about this place is actually Italian. The food is below average, frozen fish and the pizza it's weird. Not sure about the rest of the menu but from what I've seen on other tables it looks like it's been prepared by someone who's previously worked in an Italian kitchen n is now attempting to... More

I've only joined trip advisor because I was so disappointed with this place and wanted to vent. Had calamari and whitebait to start which were obviously from frozen (sea's only 5 mins away). Main course was chicken in tomato,pepper and chilli sauce. The chicken was hard and dry like it had been micorwaved. It was covered in the sauce so... More

As a regular customer, I highly recommend Amaretto and I have always found this restaurant to offer a varied menu, excellent quality and delivered with a friendy service. Overall it is simply superb and good value for money but be sure to reserve your table to avoid disappointment. More

We went during a recent holiday to the South and Jersey. It was one of the restaurant on a recommended list by the hotel and was close by. We felt the food was unispiring and we wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The staff did not smile and one of groups in the restaurant sent their lasagnes back as they were... More
