I went last Sunday night because it was new and I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. There were not many people and the table layout is refreshing because they are not bunched together. They are spaced and makes you feel at ease.
We were advised the fish (rock ling) and mussels were fresh so I decided to try out the mussels for first course, I also ordered a plate of asparagus which were beautiful. I steam our food at home so I loved the way they were done with spices that did not take away from the asparagus taste. The mussels were fantastic, full of flavour and in a bowl of tomato sauce which was delicious, but did not overpower the mussels in any way. Most restaurants avoid mussels and many serve them without flavour. That was a good beginning. My wife had the ling which she said was very good and I tried some, but not enough to really taste it properly. Before eating I ordered the Italian beer which was a wheat beer and very flavoursome. I used to brew my own so I know the taste and liked it very much. I had never had Italian beer before. Next course was gnocci which I had only ever had once before and I cannot remember the sauce, but it was not the hot, spicy one and I loved it. Good texture, flavour and complimentary sauce. I came away thinking that the chef knows what he is doing and produced food equal to a restaurant that would charge double or triple. It is hard to describe the little things, but you also know when you have had an ordinary meal and this was far from ordinary for me.
Without a doubt, this is one of the best Italian restaurants around the area. The food was delicious - I even tried something different other than pasta or pizza, and was supremely satisfied with my choice. The service was spot and the bill was very achievable for 4 adults and a teenager.
Honestly one of my favourite meals I have ever had.
Came here with my girlfriend, the service was perfect, waiter was very knowledgeable, attentive, helpful and kind.
I had the trevally (which was one of the specials), and it was perfection.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great dining experience, at a very reasonable price!
