Booked for our wedding anniversary meal on 12th December 2024. Customer care was excellent, Food, Wine and Beer was outstanding. Excellent value for money. Can’t wait to book another table. Thank you.

Second visit for an evening meal and once again exceptional food and service. We chose their Christmas menu, and at £45 a head, it was worth every penny . I must mention the Sardinian wine, Nepente Di Oliena, which was a perfect match for the meal in our opinion. A very enjoyable 2 and 1/2 hours and recommended.

Small, cozy restaurant serving tasty and authentic Sardinian cuisine. We had Sardinian starters which were wonderful, followed by their Sunday roasts (we sampled the lamb, chicken and pork). Great service and friendly staff.

My wife and I booked Sunday Lunch. We ordered the lamb and porchetta, Both were delicious, the meat and vegetables were great, nice to have a roast with a Sardinian influence. We have been to the restaurant on a few occasions now and love the menu as it differs from your standard Italian fare.

We went last Saturday for the set lunch to see what it’s like. Lovely restaurant with comfortable ambiance. Excellent food, fresh and very tasty. So good to try something different that’s quality. Looking forward to going back!

First time on Friday night. Lovely atmosphere, surroundings & menu. My partner ate 2 starters and I opted for a ravioli stuffed with ricotta, pecorino & saffron, served with the boar ragu. Beautifully light with the rich sauce. Desert was the ricotta/orange cheesecake with homemade vanilla ice cream. The service and food delightful.
