Well we have been here 3 times now, and what a good place it is, the first time we went here with a few friends, altogether there was 5 of us,i started with a pint of Peroni, and some olives at the bar, then sat at the table and ordered the Seared scallops which were cook to perfection, three of us had the Sauteed King Prawns which again were cooked brilliantly and the last guy ordered the Misto pesce to which the waiter asked if it was for just him which it was, and when it came out we realized why he asked as it really is to share, which i have to say we did all share in the end, for main i had the Italian burger, which was on the special board, which came with Gorgonzola cheese which as someone not a fan of cheese i asked for it with out, which was not a problem for them, and i was able to have the burger cooked to order which was very rare, two others went for the Risotto of the day which came with lots of cheese mushrooms and truffles, which was so very creamy, and cooked so well not at all over cooked at all which happens in a lot of places, one of the guys went for the Spaghetti King prawns, again prawns were just right, i think the only bad comment here was the it could have come with a bit more chilli, the last guy had spaghetti meat balls which to be honest if they couldn't do this Italian staple then again there really is something wrong, after all our food we had a really good, espresso, and one of my favorites a nice shot of limoncello which was given to us for free.

The second time we went there was just the two of us for lunch, we started with the Misto pesce, after trying it the first time we couldn't resist, and again it was really good, for my main i went for the Calzone, which was huge, and so good, but i have to be honest, we were slightly hungover, so i couldn't manage the whole thing but the waitress was really good and offered to box it up for me to take home which i did, it really helped with the hangover later in the day, Richard had the spaghetti and sausage which was really nice and i have to say as always happens i had food envy, again we had the coffee, and limoncello, in fact we had 2 and again we were given them free,

The 3rd time we went here for for an evening meal last night, and both the waiters and waitresses remembered us, which was nice as we were given a very warm welcome, while we were there they had a 30th birthday party in, when i saw them all come in i did think it was going to be very annoying but i have to say, the restaurant is large enough that they were not really an issue, again we shared the Misto pesce this time there was no scallops so in there place we were offer mussels, whitebait and clams, how could we say no to that, all was fantastic, but i do think the squid should have a bit more flavor in the batter. After that we both went on to have the steak Diane, which was on the special board, we had our sauce on the side, as we both ordered our steak blue, and oh my god, was it good, i think it is now my favorite place to have a steak, again we went for our coffees, but this time i had a decaf espresso, which the waitress brought over i must say it looked a bit watery and with in minuets the waiter came over with a replacement without me asking which was good, again we ordered a limoncello which we paid for this time which we thought was a shame, but then the waiter came over with another one on him, we then ordered a bottle of wine, and sat at the bar, now i have to say we went on a Wednesday, and i have to say that there is a very busy bar next door, with which the restaurant shears the toilets, which i have to say is not something i enjoyed as by 10 pm i went to the loo, and the floor was covered with pee, from the guys in the bar, so a really, really good place to eat both for lunch and dinner, but i think for dinner i would get there early, so when the bar gets busy you don;t have to share the loo's .
