Montalbano Italian

We went for new year's eve and it was great. You could not fault it in any way. I am gluten free and they accommodated for me even though the restaurant was full. It was a throughly enjoyable night with entertainmentas well. Well done to the owners and staff.

A lively encounter with Italy in the little kentish town of Tenterden, with mixed emotions. Were given our menus by a tall englishman on the terrace, he never returned, but 15 mins later what appeared to be the Italian owner was outside, noticed us and took our order, the classic starter of prawn cocktail was delicious as was the Italian white wine that accompanied it. However whilst my main course was also delicious, my partners carbonara was dry and the pasta (penne) was hard and disappointing, an italian waitress was very sympathetic and removed the dish from the bill, but no visit from the italian man who took the order and no digestiv lemoncello to soothe our pain!!! Nevertheless i can see the appeal of the restaurant and put to error down to the fact that my partner is gluten-free and the chef cooked the pasta as if it were durum wheat for 12 minutes and gf pasta needs a little longer, the next day i cooked her gf spaghetti carbonara to the traditional Roman recipe smooth silky and unctuous to cheer her up
