First time here, lovely food, great service - love the fact I can get half pizza and half pasta if you can't make up your mind. And too right, as it's impossible to choose as it's all too good. Lovely and attentive service too :)

We came to this restaurant after the Great North Run with all our family (there was 11 of us in total including kids!) what a LOVELY restaurant this place is! The food was great, everyone ate everything. So accommodating for children and the whole family. The staff worked so hard and the service was amazing despite it being busy! We would definitely return here!

I dined here with my daughter, son in law and my granddaughter two weeks ago. It was a lovely place and felt welcomed as soon as we walked in. We ordered our starters which arrived in good time. All were delicious until the last mouthful of my dish ( garlic mushrooms ) I thought I had a bit of dried mixed herbs in my mouth, however it was a piece of a metal scouring pad. I was obviously very disappointed with this and mentioned it to the waiter who asked the chef what this could be. He returned and said it was something off the pan that he cooked the dish in. I said that it looked like a piece of metal from a scouring pad and he said it wasn't. Fortunately this was my dish and not my granddaughter's who is only 17 month old. I let it go as I didn't want to spoil the rest of the dinner. I ordered a pizza which was lovely, my daughter and son in law ordered pasta with chicken, my daughter found a bit of gristle in her chicken and pushed it aside but then started to inspect the rest of her meal. She found another piece of meat that still had the tendon in. She was put off the meal and subsequently did not eat anymore, as my son in law had ordered the same he didn't finish his meal either. I complained again about it and he asked the chef again what it could be. He returned saying that it was the only chicken they had and no alternative. He said he would take that meal off the bill. We went in for the specials which is around £12 each for a starter and main, we did order a child's meal which was a meal and ice cream, but we didn't even get the ice cream. When I got the bill they had took the main meal off but still charged for the starter of garlic mushrooms. I paid the bill £47.63 and left obviously not a happy customer. In hindsight I should've questioned the bill there and then but my granddaughter was getting grouchy by this time. My daughter had potato skins for her starter which I would imagine be one of the cheapest starters on the menu and I had the garlic mushrooms as mentioned with the piece of metal found in it. I shouldn't have had to pay for that at all. Also I should've taken a photo of the piece of metal and the meals but just didn't think about it at the time. I will have my wits about me if this happens again. Overall, the waiter and waitress that served us were lovely and very apologetic, also rushed off their feet in the end when it started to get busy. However, we will most definitely not be returning to this place anytime in the future and will be sure to tell friends and family of this experience.

Booked a table online so we could celebrate my mums 70th birthday. Very happy we did, although on a Sunday and I did not realise they only served a roast. However, we were not disappointed with the food. The service and food was excellent and two of our party required gluten free, which was catered with no issue. Staff were very welcoming and friendly, lovely little place. Would definitely return and highly recommend.

***AVOID AT ALL COSTS*** The other week I and my partners came here for a date night. We had never been before, and enjoyed it very much. Staff were great. Food was delicious. Lastnight I decided I couldn’t stay away, and so I and my partner decided to have it again but, this time take out as it has been a long day for us. We ordered on just eat where the restaurant accepted the order. It stated 21:25 on our just eat yet when we arrived the shutters were down. We contacted the business and they basically agreed to taking our money, and leaving which with the cost of living and families to feed this is absolutely disgusting. They stated that they called us 3 times as order was called at 9:05 but we did not arrive. We have proof of no call and proof of our order stating 21:25 yet they cannot do anything. I really found a new beautiful restaurant here but, this has well and truly spoilt it. Will not be returning.

We stopped in for glutten free pasta. They told us they had it. We ordered drinks. When the waitress came up said they didn't have it. The right thing to do is offer us the drinks for free but we had to pay before leaving. We were told the food was great here but the lack of communication between the wait staff and the front of the house was not good.

I sent it back but he insisted I have it. It was overfacing and I couldn't eat it. Don't think we'll be back

If so please tell him/her they are covering the food with salt like you couldn’t taste anything else so disappointing cause like I say it’s normally so good from here.. the lasagna was a lot of sauce just really sloppy with a small bit of pasta and mince in the middle .. we did get cheesecake and that was still amazing… will order again tho see if it was just a one off 😀 also the driver is so canny and very polite

I used to love it here. But it's gone seriously downhill. The calimari was frozen, and everything else was microwaved. All the food was soft, tasteless, and just sad. The attitude from the kitchen was appalling, too. We sent food back, as the pasta was way overcooked and mushy, and the kitchen said it's supposed to be like that. I'm never returning, and I advise you don't waste your time with this place.

The menu is priced differently to the website, for example the web said £17 for a steak and when we sat down it was actually £25. Quite a bit of a difference which may be an unpleasant surprise for some people, especially if you’re on a budget. Saying that the food was lovely and the service was good.

We waited 1 hour for pizza and calzone, which is unheard of in any Italian restaurant. The pizza base was thick, soft and floppy, maybe fried base, almost not cooked enough. The calzone was soft wet, rather than firm and crispy. I think the restaurant doesn't have the correct ovens for good pizza, nor a good cook. It's unfortunate that they got it so so wrong, we won't ever eat again here.

Stopped over at the weekend, checked the restaurants online, this one appealed too me because it said it was a family run business. Got there at around 1, early bird was still on, 2 courses £8.95,£12.95 or £15.95, so 2 starters 2 mains 2 drinks and if you payed by cash 💸 you got 10% knocked off your bill witch came to £22.25, well worth it, will definitely go back, well done davinci's 👍 👍👍👍

From the first moment when I stepped into the restaurant, I was deeply impressed by the atmosphere in the room, and the friendly and kind staff, the divine food, I felt exactly like in Italy, the chef Zia was excellent, although I had some special requirements, the menu was delivered exactly as I wanted it for both myself and my children.
