I ordered linguine con frutti di mare for £17.50, opting for mussels instead of crayfish. My starter was okay, but the main course was terrible. It contained only two tiny shrimp and three very small, not-fresh mussels. Of the three clams, two had meat missing; I only got to eat one piece. For the price I paid, and with nothing added beyond my initial request to remove the crayfish, the clams were smelly, dry, and very small. I feel the food should have been of higher quality for this price. It was awful. I regret booking this place.

I did go with my parents at lunchtime, so it was a little quiet, but it was still a nice atmosphere and the staff were attentive, but allowed you time to have a good look at the menu.

Food good but service was terrible.
I have been massively over charged (which i have only realised now I've looked at the receipt). My desert order was forgotten about and an offer of taking my drinks and desert off the receipt was made. However, instead I have still been charged for my drinks, I've been charged for two pizzas (rather than the one i had) and there are items on my receipt that I did not have.
I have tried calling the restaurant several times to resolve the issue however, they do not answer their phone.
Awful service all round.

Had a great experience this evening, served by Luka who gave us 5* service. Food was really good and we all enjoyed. Only thing that has let it down was the extremely slow service from the bar. I’d assume the lady was the manager due to different uniform/ own clothing. Luka was running round making sure all the tables were ok, and the lady had a miserable, uninviting face, she could have been doing a lot more to help her team out.
