What customers say?

“ Wonderful meal with family. The food and service were excellent. The pasta was perfectly al dente, between 7 of us we didn't have a single complaint. They could cut the portions in half and it would still be incredible value. ”

“ Food was excellent, wine was good. Service was a little slow and the layout of the restaurant means you can't get anyone's attention. I would still recommend going but order everything you need when you can ”

“ I went for dinner with family and friends,for starter I had the battered prawns which was nice a d cripsy,.my main meal was seabass ,mussels,prawn with a creamy sauce served with roast potatoes and salad. I must say the portions here are large,advisable you visit hungry!I had the tiramisu which was okay, didn't take the alcohol in it, though. My kids had peperoni pizzas, which was delicious. Hubby had linguine with prawns and salmon,it was nice . The restaurant is cosy and small and we went on a weekday so it wasn't too full. Overall, the experience was nice,there was just one person taking orders and serving but it was okay as the restaurant wasnt full. ”

“ I booked this restaurant as it was No. 1 on TripAdvisor… And we love our Italian food… When we arrived, this little restaurant was full. How lovely!! What an absolutely fantastic meal we had here!! From the moment we entered the restaurant, all the staff including the chef greeted us, which is always a delight. A very nice menu with lots of pizza’s, pasta’s, risottos and lots of Italian menu items. Our server Jorge, was so very pleasant. He took our orders, made adjustments for my girls & mum-in-law, and it was served in a timely manner. The other server was very pleasant as well. The food was delicious & authentic tasting Italian food. Everything was fresh, delicious, and made with lots of love. Also, when I asked for some chillies, as I like my food spicy - they made me fresh chilli oil - a service above the ordinary… We can definitely recommend and would most definitely be coming back. My girls want to come back to Bournemouth, just so we can come back here. As Jorge told them, he will be waiting for them ”

“ Absolutely in love with this gem! I’ve tried booking a few times before but it was always fully booked, and now I know why! I finally got a table and… wow. As a chef myself, I’m seriously impressed. This is hands down some of the best Italian food I’ve had in the UK. Every single dish was cooked to perfection. We ordered two starters and two mains, and they were generous! So much so that we didn’t have room for dessert, but next time I’ll definitely pace myself better! Massive thank you to the talented chef and the super friendly, welcoming staff. You can feel the passion in both the kitchen and the service. Can’t wait to come back, this place is officially a favourite! ”

“ Rather good food in this tucked away restaurant - in an area which used to be much more popular. The staff were very friendly and the food was tasty and hot. Pizzas were large, fresh and really fabulous. Portion sizes generous. We were surprised at how quiet it was on mother's day, we got a couple of free desserts to celebrate, which impressed us. Attention to detail on cleanliness required, on the floor and there were 3 little flies buzzing around. Overall good. ”
