What an excellent meal, served by efficient staff. I had the potato skin starter, I know people will yarn at this, but they were a different standard, piping hot not to fat and absolutely bucket loads of them. I went for the calzone pizza with chilli sauce topping, and it was again gigantic yet cooked to perfection. My wife had the ravioli and this was divine and yes, a very healthy portion. The staff were fantastic, there if you needed them but not in your face. The price was brilliant. Hand on heart, I'll be back for more as the menu was a headache to choose from Ps there's specials on throughout the week. 10/10 Revisited 22/10/24, as above brilliant food, served professionally at great prices.

It’s a long time since we’ve been here and wouldn’t rush back. Initial table seating wasn’t acceptable, we booked for seven people and at first the seating arrangement was awful. The waitress changed it around as she she said she had lots of bookings🤷‍♀️ Waited a while for initial drinks, then another while to order.. food was mediocre, service was lax. Seem to cater for regulars which is fair enough, but todays newcomers but be tomorrows regulars 🤔

Poor service, poor food. Starters arrived with one missing, had to go look for waitress to get the final one which it turned out she hadn't ordered. When it came, everyone else had finished. Ordered new potatoes but got fried, sauce never arrived and food was very bland. The carbonara was very 'wet' and saucy - it should be quite dry. The linguine was very oily with little flavour and the lasagne was soggy. Ordered lime and soda, got lemonade. We needed a lot of extra seasoning. Wouldn't revisit. Feel they need to choose between Greek and italian as they haven't got either right here!

A long time since we last visited , but after bad experiences in cheaper Italian restaurants closer to us, we decided to return. Young chap who served us and all other staff very friendly - good start thats what we want , nice ambience but not as many in as I would have expected , maybe the cost of living effect . everything fine , would have been a 5 instead of a 4 but for the penne arriabiatta , it was quite dry and hardly any sauce on it, wanted to mention it at the time but other half said its tasted fine just no sauce , she always has this , so next time hopefully they remember to put a little more sauce in , but will defo return,portions a good sizetoo , well done

Very disappointing and over priced for the standard of food we received. Charged Very disappointing and over priced for the standard of food we received. Charged the same for take away as in restaurant. Cannelloni - not sure where the meat was. Filling seemed to be mainly rocket. Pizza Piccante - VERY sparse topping. I bought 2 frozen pizzas from Asda, costing £1.45 each, that had more topping and were much nicer. Garlic bread with cheese - dry and very little if any cheese. Tasteless. Chips - Minging and find it hard to believe they were hand cut. Cost - £31.45 although I get the total to be £29.50 so I assume the additional £1.95 was for the virtually non-existent cheese on the garlic brea d. All I can say is that I was so hungry I could have eaten a scabby dog otherwise I would have taken it back. Never again!

Popped in with a friend last week we used to go all the time before covid. all was well and the service was going great. We both ordered steak was abit disappointed as the sauce was smeared all over the steak but I suppose this is just a personal preference. The steak was overcooked …. Asked for medium and got it well done! Ruined my fillet steak but above all I was really disappointed when the waiter made a very obscene comment “suppose your paying” then laughed at me and gave the bill to my friend who was male. I corrected him and replied “in fact I am paying”. It really threw me and I won’t be returning. I don’t who was more embarrassed, us, the waiter or the family next of us who’s jaws dropped!

Anyway a friend of mine is a regular visitor and rates the place highly so we decided to give it a go. Pleased we did as the whole experience was enjoyable. Friendly staff and decent food and that’s all you can ask for. Overall I would def recommend the place as it’s reasonably priced with good quality food and in my experience friendly staff.
