  • This place used to be spectacular before Claudio changed premises. I have been three times since he moved. On one of these occasions the waiter was a nervous English guy who had very little knowledge of the menu so when I asked him questions he just went red and said he would ask the chef. Ah the chef, Claudio is well known in the local Italian community for trying to do it all himself. Hence the sometimes incredibly slow service. I once waited an hour between starter and main course then I walked out. Yes it is good to see a chef that cares but get some help in there ! The food is generally good but is too expensive. The general ambiance is fine for romantic meal for two but I would not bring children here. Decor is fine and modern with a good waiting area. No pizza which is a slight detraction. Staff ever changing. If they could get consistency there then they could recapture that atmosphere they once had. Wine list is good but expensive. UPDATE I have been here about ten times in the last six months. I cannot get enough of the place. He has reined in the menu a bit and stuck at what he is good at. The risotto and pasta dishes are simply wonderful and the meat is still meltingly beautiful. He has just changed menu to reflect seasonal availability and has added some exciting variations such as salmon, swordfish etc. meal deal still on and well worth it. If you come to eat in Scarborough just once, come here. UPDATE JUNE 2012Its great to find a decent restaurant open on a monday night in Scarborough. For starter I had asparagus wrapped in Parma ham, stuffed with ricotta and baked in the oven. It was brilliant. A superb use of the ingredients. Claudios menu reflects spring and what is available locally. His Summer menu I am assured will be even better. My partner had baked goats cheese on pears and that too was lovely.For mains I had a fist sized fillet steak in a sage and garlic sauce wrapped in parma ham served on crostini with veg.It was so good I wanted to cry. It was simply awesome in the true sense of the word. I asked for it rare and it was just perfect, simply perfect. I did not need a knife to slice it as it was so tender. (SEE PHOTO) My partner had Risotto Reale which comes with a steak on it. She loved it, even though she had it murdered to well done it was still soft and tender. Service as always was great, attentive and friendly. I have raved in recent reviews about steak at other establishments in the town. They are superb. However the fillet steak served here is not just the best I have had in this town, it is the best I have had anywhere. Pure magic. You must try it.
