   Awful Service. Myself and my girlfriend had booked a table to celebrate Valentine's Day, however unfortunately due to the inappropriate behaviour of our male server(s) our evening was ultimately ruined. Firstly, our initial male server grabbed our flowers/presents and attempted to move them away from us, despite us saying no multiple times - we had just sat down and my partner had not even had a chance to open her gift yet. This was repeated again by another male server, until eventually another female server took our things to a table in the corner where there were dirty glasses etc. This was particularly strange as the couple next to us were allowed to keep their flowers next to them all night. Our first male server further made an inappropriate comment towards myself, commenting that he liked my perfume, which he repeated three times despite both myself and partner's obvious discomfort. He went far enough to say that I smelled 'nice' and 'spicy'. He then stared at my partner inappropriately whilst he took our order. At this point we decided that it would be best to ask for a new server, not wanting to make a fuss we politely made this request to one of the male supervisors, however he demanded to know what the server had done, which again made us feel uncomfortable. Afterward he spoke to the server in clear view of us, where he seemed to brush off the entire thing. It wasn't until the end of the night that the female manager came over, spoke to us properly, and apologised. After all of this, the food was incredibly expensive and was just 'ok'. We were extremely disappointed as we had actually chosen to visit as they supposedly had a great Gluten Free menu, however the flavours were bland and the portion size tiny.

   Friendly service and beautiful food. I had originally booked bar seats in error and they found us a table and they did this with a smile.

   I messaged the restaurant Service was sloppy with dishes getting mixed up and arriving out of order The lamb kebabs were inedible - full of grist and fat and overcooked . Not a good experience at all - they did not charge for the lamb

   The food was excellent, as usual. But unfortunately the service was not. Not sure who got our order wrong, but we received a wrong pizzetta (tomato and mozzarella instead of mushroom and gorgonzola) and the Speicial chicken and Roasted broccoli and cauliflower never arrived at all. Fair enough we were not charged for the pizzetta and the waiter was very apologetic and polite, and we did not leave hungry, but I was really looking forward to the La Goccia chicken!:)

   What an absolute incredible restaurant. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a tapas style Italian experience. The spinach salad was phenomenal.

    Have eaten here many times since it opened. Great location and nice atmosphere. However the food is extremely average at best. Someone had emptied old lettuce from a bag no doubt and covered it in fresh leaves to hide it. Potatoes had obvs been cooked some while age and reheated as were soft and slightly watery, sardine main course had two small sardines. I won’t be rushing back
