A warm welcome to a thoroughly relaxed , unhurried restaurant -- as much time as you require to select your food from the excellent italian menu -- must be some of the best pasta anywhere -- good steaks with wonderful sauces. The wine list is well matched to the food. the staff are attentive. They have created a wonderful atmosphere... More

The reason of the Italian -style- title is because after living for several years in Italy I consider a restaurant strictly Italian when I see no dishes with cream.

The table was set exquisitely and the fact three of our party had had to cancel due to an illness was dealt with smoothly without making us feel awkward. The range of aperitifs is... More

The decoration of the restaurant is amazing and you will certainly make a nice impression to your company! Food is quite nice (we had pasta with lobster and shrimps) but quite heavy as well - lots of butter. Prices are normal although for the lobster we paid something more and wine list has nice wines in okay prices. More specifically... More
