I was in the area and some friends had recommended that I give it a try.
The place is very nicely designed and very clean.
There were not many diners there, maybe the place was half full.
Everyone was enjoying their meal as I have a tendancy to listen to other people's conversations. The people having the mussels were delighted.
There were 4 at our table and 2 of the diners had the lasagna. It was fantastic! Obviously prepared to order with a carefully prepared red and white sauce. The noodles had to be homemade as they were so tender. I had a Panini which was well made, the bread was excellent, but I wouldn't order this again as there are better dishes. The last diner had pasta with bolgnase (have no idea how to spell it) which was very tasty. The winner was the lasagna.
We had fried calamari as an appetiser. The serving size was very small, but it was nicely prepared. I felt it was over priced for the size of the serving. HOWEVER the owner came over with a large plate of shrimp in a tomatoe garlic sauce with bread as an additional FREE appetiser. It was out of this world!
Service was excellent.
I have no doubt that if given the time to cultivate a client base they will be here for a long time. I know I'll be back!
