Great place to dine if you want an authentic Italian experience but are vegan and feel that you miss out. You don’t have to miss out here on the indulgence of cheese and pasta.

Food was great with lots of vegan options ,but the service was very inattentive. We had to flag someone down each time we wanted something. Even getting the bill took a long time. Had to interrupt a conversation to get salt.

Our second visit, again the food was great as with 2 vegans in our family group they provided great options for us all. Both times we have felt that we were intruding. The Italian woman who seemed to be running the place, could not have been less interested in us or our feedback. Although the food was good there was no atmosphere and it is quite pricey. They messed up a dessert order after asking several times about allergies and offered nothing as an apology. Not even a sorry! Probably won't bother again

As someone who needs to follow a low FODMAP diet to manage symptoms of IBS, to find a restaurant that specifically offers a LOW FODMAP menu, alongside their regular menu and vegan and vegan-FODMAP menus is just a god send. And then we got nothing but beautiful food. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

Honestly, both the vegan and normal menus were very disappointing. I had heard amazing reviews! I brought my parents for a special occasion. Our share platter for two, one vegan one not, was overpriced and underwhelming. The quality of the ingredients was poor. Our vegan main meals were one dimensional in flavour. The presentation was poor, the polenta was undercooked, the vegan ""italian""" sausages were tiny and disappointing. The scallipini was floury and the "sauce" was a poor imitation of chip shop gravy. The salmon was overcooked and a hazard. It was full of bones. The penne was extremely salty. The restaurant was lovely, but noisy. The staff were pleasant. However, the meals were overpriced, underwhelming, and clearly lacked skill.

We waited for over one hour before our food was served. The Italian dishes were okay but nothing special, too expensive for what it was. Very noisy restaurant. The vegan version of calamari was good.

Authentic Italian food, great setting and friendly service. There's something for everyone with a meat and vegan menu (vegan includes starters, mains and delicious desserts). I took my work colleagues there for our end of year lunch and everyone commented on how delicious their meals were.
