Exposed brickwork, wooden tables covered in red checked tablecloths and grape vines hanging from the ceiling add to the authentic Italian experience, while the menu is filled with traditional favourites.
Starters include burrata bresaola, crispy pan-fried calamari and bruschetta, along with sharing options such as traditional ‘Italiano antipasto’, with a selection of meats, cheese and olives served with freshly baked bread. For mains there is a varied choice of pizzas and calzone, along with popular pasta dishes spaghetti carbonara and tagliatelle with meatballs.
For pudding you will find a host of Italian sweet treats. You might want to opt for the typical Italian dessert - Tiramisu, a liqueur, cocoa and espresso infused layer of biscuits topped with a mascarpone cheese and topped with a dusting of rich cocoa powder. For a more delicate dessert choose the elegantly plated Panna Cotta, a perfect smooth sweet treat to end your meal with. Or refresh your palette with some traditional Italian sorbet or gelato. You will also find a carefully chosen wine list that will perfectly complement the flavours of your chosen dish.
