A word of warning, nice warning... The portions are quite large.

Been a couple of times and have been stuffed on both occasions. Must remember not to order a starter next time.

Seems pretty busy during the week as well and I think it has a regular clientele which shows how liked the place is. We would go back and it is better than most Italian restaurants in town and closer to home.

This carpaccio was more like slices of steak and chunks of parmesan. Very filling!

I liked this starter with lots of smoked salmon and prawns.

Pasta was nice and al dente but I made the mistake of having too much parmesan on top. Didn't need any.

Mixed seafood. Very nice to see a good range there for a chance.

Aubergene buccatini. Wasn't my favourite
