    We particularly liked the venue. Very convenient and attractive on a balmy summer evening. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The wine list was interesting and the beer good. The broccolini side dish was great. Unfortunately we thought the starter and main course (crostini and linguine di mare) could have been much better. The charcoal crostini didn’t really go well with the topping and the linguine lacked flavour - a shame as everything else was fine.
