    Incredibly friendly and lovely staff! Plenty of space inside and outside. The food is delicious! Starters are great and everything tastes fresh. I was particularly impressed by the Mortadella, Burrata, and Pistachio pizza. Excellent and original dough. Highly recommendable in every way! :)

    (Translated by Google) To date the best Italian restaurant of all those where we had lunch in the UK. Having the Salento father-in-law he could not disappoint me. Una Signora pizza and special meat dishes. You feel that there is a lot of work and a lot of Love. We will definitely be back. (Original) Ad oggi il ristorante italiano migliore di tutti quelli dove abbiamo pranzato in UK. Avendo il suocero salentino non poteva deludermi. Una Signora pizza e piatti di carne speciali. Senti che c'è tanto lavoro e tanto Amore. Torneremo sicuramente.

    Food was great and most of the staff very caring. One staff member has a not a very customer service friendly attitude (long hair lady with glasses). Inexpressive, not very talkative and really dry answers, she would approach the table with a drink and not even saying a single word, just lifting the drink. I’m leaving 4 stars because the other staff is great and I don’t want one staff member attitude to affect a place I really like.

    A very nice little Italian cafe, come diner, come bar. Has a great team of friendly staff working behind the bar or serving your table. There are a couple of beers on tap, a couple of decent wines and plenty of other alcoholic beverages from the top shelf to choose from. Happy hour is from 4-7pm with delicious pizza for £5. Worth a visit.
