Excellent as always. Pasquale, Domenico and the team looked after us making the evening special. Thanks to Rosario for being the best and most personable waiter, and a shout out to Ciara too who we had a lovely chat to. The menu tweaks recently have enhanced the offer and the atmosphere (we were on the terrace for a change) was lovely.
