Amazing restaurant - food was delicious, served quickly. Nice and cozy atmosphere, not too loud, not too quiet. Best of all was the staff, who were attentive and absolutely lovely. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an Italian. Prices also fairly reasonable.

Amazing resteraunt. It has wheelchair acsess, a few car parks near by and the food is wonderful. Lots of options for dietary needs. My only critique is that it was a little bussy and loud but in fairness it was a saturday evening. 5 stars would and will go again!

Went to York restaurant. Reece was on his own and the only one serving but he did a great job! Was very personable and attentive, and the service remained efficient despite the lack of staff. The food was lovely too!

The waiter was amazing to everyone and you could tell he really loves his role. Went above and beyond to make our time there comfortable and made a friend in our 7 year old. He had him laughing every time he came near us. I can’t remember his name but he is wonderful

Just simple, tasty Italian food. For a resturant chain it's good quality, simple ingredients and lovely service. My receipt says Heather was my server, thank you for great service, not to much not to little! Very attentive. 😀

Called in without booking, place was not at all busy. Didn't find the staff particularly friendly, spent more time stood chatting with each other than being attentive to the few customers they had in. Food was acceptable, my carbonara had no sauce & the pancetta was rubbery. My husband enjoyed his meatballs but both our pastas could have done with cooking a little longer. Expensive place to eat for such an experience. Wish we'd tried the one next door.

Absolute let down , called in with no reservation, 4 of us got sat at a table for 8 , was left for 15mins before a drinks order was taken , food arrived and is clearly cooked from frozen , service was shocking not a single member of staff looked like they wanted to be there , and also got hit with a “service charge” ! Which it states on the receipt is added for a table of 8 or more , I was going to tip but it was already added to the bill ! Will never be going there again , shocking and on a side note the toilets stank of urine !

Good vegetarian and gluten-free options made this a better choice than some of the nearby restaurants. The food was good, the waiting staff were terrific, one dish was late because it had been accidentally missed but the cost was taken off the bill and didn't ruin our experience in the slightest. Had a great time, would visit again.

Visitamos la semana pasada como una familia de 3 adultos y 1 adolescente. El personal era muy agradable y amable y la comida era encantadora. Todos disfrutamos mucho de nuestras comidas. La única razón por la que solo di 4 * fue que los baños dejaron mucho que desear, no digo que estuvieran sucios, pero había papel higiénico por todo el piso y no creo que pudieran haber sido revisados durante algún tiempo, pero esto no nos detendría de nuevo. Tengo una tarjeta Blue Light Card y recibí el 25 % de toda la factura, pero solo se puede usar en el menú principal, no en el menú establecido.

Me and the wife came for tea during our weekend stay in York. We got the 2 course meal deal for £20 which was great value for money. The food was lovely and tasty, we got the starters of meatballs and garlic dough balls and mains of Spicy sausage pasta and carbonara. Both meals very nice. The staff were very friendly especially one of the young men, unfortunately didn’t get his name, but the lad with short shaven hair lol. he was very polite and friendly and great with all the people in the restaurant especially the kids and went out of his way to make everyone comfortable check all ok. Would definitely go back when visiting York again.

The food was really good, along with the service and atmosphere. The reason I gave 4 stars is because there was a very strong smell of mould. This really affected my experience, along with the lack of Italian staff.

We went for Mother’s Day and we were supposed to get a free drink for mum for Mother’s Day it wasn’t mentioned so I asked and the Waitress said we have given you a soft drink of the bill she couldn’t even look us in the face the place had a very dishonest vibe to it and the manager looked very dodgy very dishonest place probably led from the manager they were all whispering about not giving the free Mother’s Day drink away like it was a game to them see how much money they could save shame we won’t be back silly really maybe that’s why there was maybe no one in there dining also seemed to have a party corner with staff eating there lunch like a holiday camp if I’m honest 😂perhaps you need to mystery shop them and find out for yourselves be warned !!!!

Visited as an adult, teenager and child. Saw people come in after us, who were served and got there starters before us. Starters finally arrived, no issues with taste etc of these. Starter plates were not cleared until our mains arrived some 20 minutes later. Mains were bland, not much flavour at all (carbonara). Plates were cleared faster, then took over 20 minutes for server to approach us to take desserts order. Desserts were good.

A little disappointed turned up at 16.50 was turned away no tables, my wife went online booked a table and we went back 10 mins later. When we were seated I asked to speak to the manager he was the one that turned us away his response was I do not have to justify myself to you it was the online booking system telling me we had no tables. He came across very arrogant and self defensive Not very good customer service skills the on booking system let us book a table straight away. The male waiter with the pony tail was excellent and the food was good, the manager’s customer skills atrocious.

Wasn't busy but had enough people to make it feel alive. Food was quick to come out. My son had a pizza and enjoyed it, I had lasagne and it was very mediocre, too much sauce and not enough meat, a bit disappointing really. The chips we shared could've done with another minute or two in the fryer. It's not a cheap place to eat and so I'd expected a better food.

Every time we visit york we always go here but unfortunately it's gone seriously down hill. Visited Fri for early evening dinner and used the £5 pasta offer not sure if its same pot of bolognese sauce for offers and normal dinner dish but it was awful I could tell as soon as they put my dish down (which was literally thrown on the table) shocking hospitality anyway the pasta was slimey and the bolognese was tasteless. I had bruchetta to start and the bread was cold and rock hard I'm no expert but I've had a lot of tomato bruchetta dishes and it's meant to be warm bread. Never again.

My wife and myself went to our local restaurant on 13th March 2022 after many years of visits and found it as always beyond excellent! We started with a garlic bread pizza style; My wife had the chicken Cacciatoria which was brim full of the most tender chicken in a sauce that was to die for and with beautifully cooked vegetables. She was unable to finish her meal and at the Staff suggestion we had the remaining part of the dish boxed to take home. I ordered the 'normal' Chicken Kiev Calzone Pizza, it was huge!! the biggest I have ever had, and we have travelled a bit; the pastry casing was beautifully made and the filling heaven. I tried my best but could not eat it all...so again brought back home to eat tomorrow. The service was attentive and professional, and we noticed that they made special fuss of the children on the next table. The only sad, nay disastrous news, is that they are closing as the owner is subject to advancing years; they close after Easter this year...great sadness! we will miss it.
