    Lucky to have found this place not far from my hotel. Authentic Italian that is an outstanding value. The only thing better then the food is the service and hospitality. Great fresh pasta, and actually returned 2 days later for the Pizza which was outstanding. Very affordable wine offerings which makes the experience that much better. It is small roughly 10 tables overlooking the street with a large window so it feels bigger than it is. This will be my go to place when I return to London/Kings Cross.

    A really super meal, early evening., with two children. Our waitress was amazing, particularly with the children. Tasty food, freshly cooked and great choice. We couldn’t quite believe all the positive reviews before we visited. We now do! This place is a gem.

    Great little restaurant, both our starter and pasta were delicious. Really authentic Italian food. Service was friendly and quick ( we were off to the ballet) plus value for money was great. Would definitely go back and would recommend to friends.

    This restaurant had very good reviews and it was close to Sadlers Wells. We probably would never have chosen it otherwise. It’s nothing to look at really on the outside but it’s a real find. Food was great with a good variety on offer. The service was excellent. It was incredibly good value. We will definitely return - loved it.
