“ Highly recommended, Nick and his team were very friendly and welcoming. Julian acknowledged us without pressure and made us want to explore more as we hadn’t eaten, from this point on the level of service didn’t wain. We soon realised that Julian and I had at some point been neighbours back in England (Plymstock) such a small world Food was excellent and couldn’t fault even when adjustments were requested for a fussy eater or that extra touch of garlic was needed. Drinks were refreshingly cold and much needed after a hard day in the sun Menu and portion sizes were exemplary, you had plenty to choose from and certainly left feeling totally satisfied, full bellies all round, from the starters through to heavenly desserts. We returned twice more before leaving the Island for all the reasons mentioned above. We would like to thank Nick and his dedicated team all the very best for the future and hope our paths will cross once again.

“ Review date; 30/08/2024 We have been to this Italian restaurant quite a few times now and the young staff are really attentive. The food is good along with the wine. You can have a small taster of their house wine before deciding which one you want. This time we had the special bruschetta followed by meat ball pasta and beef cheeks with potatoes. All very nice ”
