Loved it. The restaurant us in quite an amazing space. No idea what the building used to be, but was and indeed still is very impressive. I'll be investigating the history of the building in due course. The staff were great. Friendly, attentive but not overly so. The food was delicious. The ability to choose between 3 types of pasta (4 if you include gluten free) was refreshing. The option of spaghetti only with certain dishes puts me off choosing them ordinarily. So Pasta Roma with penne it was. 2 pasta dishes, 250ml wine, 2 pints of Peroni, 1 cappuccino, 2 desserts a touch under £65.

A lovely traditional Italian family restaurant that makes the effort to cater for coeliacs/gluten free. Possibly the best gluten free pizza I’ve eaten in over 20 years, reasonable prices, a fantastic red wine on the Happy Hour menu and a delicious gamberoni al aglio to start. The allergens menu is clearly displayed on their website so you can plan confidently ahead and know what is safe to eat. Service was attentive and friendly. A lovely spot for lunch with an ever changing specials board. Highly recommended!
