    Our server was wonderful. Excellent pizza and fries as starters, really good. My son loved the burger. Super delicious. I had the Branzino with a side of squash, also delicious. The only let down was my husbands pasta bolognese, it was boring and tasteless unfortunately. Desserts were a 10/10!

    We had a terrific experience trying the high tea. The presentation was beautiful and different, coming in a tool box, instead of triple tier plates. It was a box of delicious surprises which were prepared with love. But, although beautiful presentation, I must confess that I didn’t find practical (I had to get up every time I want to pick a treat from the box). The service was excellent and because we were too early, the place was quiet, the way I like. The music and the atmosphere were also excellent. We will definitely return.

    A 5* experience! We enjoyed the holiday ambience, so much positive energy, the service was absolutely sublime! We started with oysters and crudo; followed by gluten free penne ala vodka.. This was a very seriously tasty gluten free pasta, strongly recommend.. Branzino was so tender with a crispy skin; there is some elegant lightness to this dish, a must try.. Side grilled mushrooms and broccolini are insane! Thank Zia and the team, Happy Holidays!
