It's our go to quality Italian restaurant and it always delivers consistent quality at a fair price point. The pizza dough is always a highlight and we've never had a better Garlic Focaccia. The menu, whilst not extensive, would tick the boxes for most tastes. The wine list on the other hand is extensive with an exceptional array of Italian wines to savour. Definitely worth putting it on your must go to list.
