6.5/10Let’s start with the outstanding - wonderful, old fashioned service with the correct mix of friendliness and professionalism hard to find today. I wish we could take our lovely waiter everywhere with us! The restaurant did not look like much from the outside, but once inside you are in a little haven in a not-so-exciting area. Familial decor which is perfect for its proposal. Alas, for me, the food was a pass! 90s style unnecessary flourishes such as scribbled nero on plate with herb decor. Oysters (from Ireland? In Italy? Why???) with strawberry decor, Frito Misto served on a bed of undressed green frisée. I did not enjoy my dishes at all but have put it down to you win some, you loose some. I’m fairness, the locals seemed to love it. I really wanted to love it too, as the service deserved food to match it, but the quality and style are far, far away from what I’m used to having in Italy.

7/10Good food, good wines menu, clean place. Service a little bit messy due to Saturday night bookings, ok with 30% the fork discount (otherwise, too expensive).

10/10Outstanding as usual. This time I must congratulate the waiters for the excellent service despite a very busy evening. Seafood top quality, dessert outstanding (cannolo siciliano) wine list reasonably priced.

7/10The staff were amazing, very helpful. Are starter was really good, the mains ,fried fish was differcult too remove the bones, so did not eat much. My boyfriends fish was dry. The desert was disappointing. Especially the cream and the way it was served. Wine was ok.

10/10Wow- this was a pleasant surprise! From the moment we arrived the waiter made us feel welcome, we were greeted with a glass of Prosecco and a little house palate teaser! The menu is only in Italian but he did his best to translate for us which was nice! We shared the calamari and prawns which were perfect! Then for my main I had the lobster special and my friend wanted the risotto dish but with spaghetti which they happily did for her! Sadly we had no space for dessert, but the other tables dessertS looked amazing! Would highly recommend- please note that tips are not accepted on card, so please remember to take cash.

10/10Very good quality as usual especially the “crudo di pesce”. Service impeccable and perfect setting outdoor. All staff respected Covid-19 measures (masks always on). Prices adjusted upward slightly but still very good value for money. Full marks for me and we’ll be back very soon.

9.5/10Party of 3, we all had excellent food and time. Seafood is top quality. The crudo platter for 2 is, in my opinion, one of the best I have ever eaten. The Chef’s obsession for quality sticks out from any dish in the menu (I have personally tried almost all of them in the 10 times I have been at this restaurant). Yesterday, the cherry on the cake was the marsala sorbet with Sicilian brioche...to die for!

7/10First course servings are small and the environment is too noisy. Appetizers and second course portions are good.

9/10Very good food. The fish is very fresh and the “crudo” to die for. They had a bit of a bottleneck in the kitchen and service was unusually slow. However, they promptly discounted dessert to compensate for it. Very attentive customer service. Private car park is also an asset. Highly recommended
