Such a nice little Italian spot with great vibes. I’ve been here about four times now and the food has always been good. One thing I really like is that they sometimes have special dishes that aren’t on the regular menu, so it always feels a bit exciting to see what they’re offering that day.

The Bolognese was a perfect balance of each ingredient and fresh herbs, obviously performed by a master chef using quality ingredients. Linguine and seafood in wine sauce also did not stand on a single ingredient, but was simultaneously subtle and flavorful. Perfection.

This cosy, welcoming spot hosts some of the best pasta we have ever eaten! Fresh pastas, local food and some Italian imports made dinner fantastic. Excellent service and food. A must visit.

An amazing hidden gem. This restaurant is cosy, welcoming and all round great. It’s very small with not many tables, so would definitely advise booking as people were getting turned away. The pasta is cooked fresh and was absolutely delicious.
