Yum meal! My favourite pasta was the venison ragu, but surprisingly my favourite dish was actually the chocolate mascarpone dessert.

The staff were friendly but busy, atmosphere was lovely too. Recommend this location for a meal out, the meal was actually good value too.

Delicious meal!

The menu changes frequently so you receive a fresh dated and printed menu.

The best meal was the seafood spaghetti but the venison ragu was also worth trying. The steak was cooked medium rare and was so soft and tender to eat. The food came out piping hot! Some of my photos are a little blurry because of the steam from the food. The tiramisu was to die for, the torte was average imo.

Staff were polite and nice but nothing above and beyond.

It was a busy restaurant considering it was a Tuesday but maybe that’s just leading up to Christmas.

Cute restaurant! Lovely wine list, lovely staff.

We ordered the crispy polenta, mussels, confit duck, burata, sour dough and prawn sando. I cannot fault any of these dishes they were all amazing. However since this place does small plates, you probably won’t get extremely full.

Great food and fantastic prices. I came here at lunch time on Saturday, a decent queue outside but they are taking everyone’s parties down. I was solo and seated at the bar after about 10-20 minutes of waiting. Food was excellent, and good value it is easy to see why there was a queue outside. Other parties that arrived after me would have had to wait 30+ minutes for a table. Staff were very busy but attentive and friendly.

I dined alone and sat at the bar. I ordered the deluxe set which has a great variety of mixed sushi and miso/salad. Staff were friendly and attentive.
