   First time at this restaurant and was looking forward to trying it. Firstly the restaurant was really cold, the service 3 star, staff looked like they didn't want to be there, and the macaroni cheese was small tubes covered in a white non thick sauce. Definitely not value for money. I contacted the restaurant afterwards and the person apologised, advised the macaroni sauce was made to order. I will definitely not go back as not satisfied.

   Had the best time. The atmosphere was simple yet so beautiful. Absolutely enjoyed my food. We got a groupon voucher so paid very little. The food is very affordable and the portions are really good. You even have an option to have half the portion!

   I loved this Italian restaurant. The place has such a cozy vibe and makes you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. The staff was super friendly and always smiling. The food… amazing! The pasta was fresh and full of flavor, and the pizza had that crispy crust you can tell was made with care. The tiramisu was my favorite—one of the best I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be coming back. It’s the kind of spot where you know you’ll always eat well and have a great time.

   The food was wonderful, unfortunately the service was not. On a cold evening, no one offered to take our coats , we asked and on collecting them found them dumped on a chair. My daughter described the type of red wine she liked and asked for a recommendation from the menu.The waitress said she didn’t drink so didn’t know, she made no attempts to find someone who did. When we did get our drinks they were wrong twice. The restaurant has an extensive menu but we had to ask twice for extra time to read it. On paying, my husband was told his card hadn’t swiped and the waiter put the machine back down before leaving .it was all very, take it or leave it.. As I said the food is excellent but expensive, it would however be worth it with better service. In reply to The reply, the waitress seemed so confused to be asked to take coats that the rest of us sat on ours. Why , in winter, is the coat rack in a cold corridor? My husband is disabled so he had to lean over plants and the counter to access the machine. It didn’t work because it was upside down. The initial response was for the man to slam it down in the holder and flounce off leaving my husband standing there. A waitress got the machine and handed it to him to insert the card. With regards to the wine , it is an Italian restaurant and my daughter asked for a wine comparable to Valpolicella , not a sommelier level question. Not the evening out we had hoped for on a special occasion. My post on Facebook was much milder than this , merely asking for other reviews in case we had got them on a bad down, it was mysteriously taken down within an hour.

   Food was good but the service was not great. We sat for 15 mins with our empty plates in front of us, and there were 3 team members standing talking at the bar. Worst garlic bread I've ever had. Restaurant was so cold I had to keep my jacket on, as did other guests. The meal was decent but expensive for what we had.

   Good coffee, though could have been larger. Didn't have cakes but they looked rich and appetising. Service was fine. The place was quiet so hard to judge atmosphere. Overall good but not outstanding

   A great place for pizzas with good location (next to avenue shopping mall so you can park the car free for 4 hours). Big menu, gluten free menu and kids menu are available. The pizzas are good with reasonable prices. Starters and drinks are a bit overpriced with small portion and for me, ordinary quality. The services obviously need to be improved. We arrived at the front where a sign said "wait to be seated" but no one came out to ask us although plenty of free tables inside and we were the only ones queueing. Simple things we requested had to be asked a few times before eventually got it (wine glasses, water, etc.). The soft drink can they gave me was filthy and opened. Nowhere for you to put the umbrella or jackets.

   Quite a cozy place has a nice friendly atmosphere but the place was a little cold. The wait times for the food wasn't very long just a correct waiting time. The portion for the price are alright, the taste was very good and could tell it was freshly made. The only downside was the dessert it was rather bland and flavourless the sauce was quite bland and was a little cold. All in all it is a good place for a quick bit to eat and friendly staff.
