Best Lasagna I’ve ever had. We walked in looking for some good pizza. Boy were we surprised with the very prompt and friendly service. Then discovered how amazing the food was. Real authentic home made Italian food. Tiramisu was the best too. Such a great experience.

The food was so delicious!! The pasta especially was amazing, the texture was really well done and the sauce paired along perfectly. The waiter was SO SO SO nice, he smiled always and looked so happy all the time!! Really made my spirits go up too!! He also gave really good recommendations. Overall really great experience, highly recommend!

This place had been on my list for some time due to the wonderful reviews. As we were seeing Wicked (conveniently across the street) it was clear that this was my choice for dinner. We were lucky enough to get an early booking. The food was delicious, the wine was delightful and the service was spectacular. Within 30 minutes the restaurant was completely full. We eventually requested to move to a small table at the front of the restaurant to finish our wine and allow our table to be turned over for the next guest. The staff was so kind and accommodating, but surprised, in a good way. If you happen to be in the area I highly recommend having lunch or dinner here. In case anyone is wondering, we enjoyed a pizza and a pasta dish.

I forgot to take pictures of our plates, but I had one of the best pasta and calamari of my life. The staff were fun and lovely, making the place even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a friendly and relaxed evening with friends, this is a great spot. It can get a bit crowded, so reservations might be a good idea, but the staff are accommodating and might still find you a table. Definitely worth the experience!

Would give more stars if I could! Opposite the theatre, staff were amazing friendly and happy. If I could close my ears I could have sworn I was in Italy. Proper Italian food portions were just right and for London prices it's a steal!

We recently visited this restaurant, it was just amazing. It so happened that we booked this place by mistake, but still came, and we didn't regret it at all! The service is just wonderful, all the staff was very kind and friendly! The food was very tasty, the portions were huge! I want to go back to such places! Thank you very much for a great time and warm memories

Excellent little restaurant. We managed to book a table for five, early on a Saturday evening. The place was completely full, but the staff were pleasant and efficient. I had lasagne, and can definitely recommend that. The rest of the party were very happy with their dishes too.
