"We dined here for a family members 60th birthday. We were a large booking of 12 with accessible needs for some members and they couldn’t be more accommodating and helpful. The food was AMAZING! The Calamari was so fresh and the Surf and Turf was perfect. Real Italian thin pizza’s too so the kids were happy! The waiting on and front of house staff were so friendly and interacted with everyone on the table so personably.We can’t thank the team enough for how special they made the evening! "

“Had an excellent meal with family on Friday 5th May 2023. The food, atmosphere, service was superb. Nothing was too much trouble, the waiting on staff very attentive and courteous. The new owner came out and introduced himself, a true scouser with an endearing sense of humour. We would highly recommend this restaurant and will certainly be back”
