I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel compelled to share this experience due to serious food safety concerns. We ordered from Celino's on August 19th, and one of the dishes -- the Allo Scoglio Pasta -- contained spoiled crayfish. The smell was unmistakable and completely inedible. We didn't eat anything else in the order out of caution, as the risk of food poisoning was too high. I grew up in Greece and know seafood -- this was clearly off. Given that my mother was previously sick for weeks due to bad crayfish, we weren't willing to take any chances and threw out the entire meal. I contacted the restaurant immediately. The manager acknowledged the issue and initially offered a replacement meal for collection only, which felt dismissive considering the seriousness of the situation. I was told I'd be called the next day by the area manager -- that call never came. Eventually, someone called around 7pm and all they did was refund one meal and insinuate that we didn't know what we were talking about. It was condescending and disappointing. Expecting us to collect a free meal from the same kitchen that nearly served us spoiled seafood is not a solution -- it's a lack of accountability. Pointing us toward Uber Eats to resolve the issue just felt like passing the buck. Food safety should be a top priority, and the lack of proper follow-up or genuine concern from the team is alarming. I hope no one else has to experience this. read more

From the moment we arrived on a Saturday afternoon without a reservation, i felt this was going to be an amazing experience! the aromas in the restaurant, the vibe, the decor took me back to a recent trip to Italy just 6 weeks before. we were seated within 20 minutes so we just sat at the bar and had a glass of wine. the menu offered such a great variety of authentic Italian dishes but not so many that it was impossible to choose from. opted for the chicken arrabiatta and my friend had the carbonara! Followed by the biggest strawberry tart I've had! OMG, I can safely say the food was the best Italian food I have eaten in Scotland. whatever ingredients they use are simply wow! our waiter Alex was so attentive, had fabulous "patter" and he just completed our experience. From start to finish, we had an amazing day, and it's now my new favourite restaurant! if you want authentic Italian food with fabulous service and a very reasonable price, then Celino's is the place to go! read more

Stopped in for an impromptu lunch due to the wrong timing for another appointment. I was actually a bit surprised that they could accommodate the two of us as I am aware previously you really had to book the place. During the lockdown they have took the opportunity to refurbish both the café and the deli. Although both we're looking lovely and fresh, it did appear less traditional than it was previously!? My friend did comment that it now looked more French than Italian!? Service was slightly slow to begin with, but in fairness, all staff were dealing with an extremely large order from two delivery vans, plus both deli and cafe customers. After the delivery, excellent, attentive service as I remember, resumed. No point in praising the food or table service. It's always spot on and absolutely delicious. Pricing is exactly where it should be and the tip was both proper and deserving. read more

Celino's is one of those places you hear so much about that you wonder if it'll live up to expectations. I finally got the chance/excuse to visit for lunch and seriously loved my meal. This Italian deli/restaurant is super popular, and on a Thursday it nearly looked like we weren't going to get a table. Thankfully there was a booth waiting for us in the corner which was just perfect. They offer a two course lunch but I'd just had toast at Stan's around the corner, so just opened for a main sized portion of risotto with chicken (pollo bianco - chicken, sauteed mushrooms with cream and white wine sauce) for £8.50. Food didn't take long to arrive and it was absolutely perfect. Restaurant risotto is always risky (especially as I make a killer risotto at home) but this one was probably up there with the best risottos I've ever had. I loved the cream and white wine sauce, it gave it a really luxurious feel. It looks a bit measly in the photo but I promise it was the perfect size portion for lunch. Service was warm and friendly, and generally the place has a bustling, busy vibe. I'm not sure I'd travel to the east end just to go here, but I'd definitely return when I'm in the area. Hot tip: in the deli section they sell meals to take away - lasagne, penne arrabiata, ravioli etc and they're all under £5 for a portion which looks pretty good value for the size you get! read more

We ate here on Fri 3rd Jan, it was our first time here for a meal in approx a year. As always it was first class. There was a group of 5, 3 adults and 2 children. We all ate off the pre theatre menu and there was enough choice and variation to keep us satisfied. Although this was our first sit down meal here in a while we are regular visitors to the Deli counter. The meats, cheeses and anti pasti options feel like a genuine taste of Italy. This place would not be out of place in West End but I am delighted it is on my door step in the east end! See you soon! read more

Celino's is one of those authentic Italian restaurants you find in Glasgow and think to yourself, how on earth do the chain places (Jamie's, Frankie and Benny's, Bella Italia etc.) manage to exist when for such a similar, or even lower price you can have excellent authentic food served in a wonderful restaurant by lovely people. My starter of king prawns in a garlic and tomato broth was excellent, and good value for the freshness and quantity of the prawns. My main I had a pizza and almost OD'd on the amount of meat. As soon as I ordered the pizza (with steak, chicken, salami and BACON) I was getting pre-emptive meat sweats. But I shouldn't have bothered, because it actually worked really well. The crusts were so good even Julie ate them and she usually can't stand the crust! And the bacon, I was a bit worried it would be fatty, but it was proper quality thick back bacon, not overpowering the richness of the sauce, the creaminess of the cheese and the thin crisp of the base. As for dessert, the Salted Caramel Sundae (we shared this, it is a big portion) was excellent, however I would recommend asking for extra chopped nuts, as they really blew the sundae away. Salty nut chunks on top of the salted caramel sundae... I want it again soon! Top class wine too. I would have only improved it by offering some Italian craft beer, but the wine was great so I can't complain too much. Final thing to add, we realised our train was going in 7 minutes, and managed to ask for the bill, get a card machine, pay and tip in time to be at the station with 3 minutes to go. Excellent service. read more

I can't believe this place does not have more 5 star reviews. It was some of the nicest Italian food I have had outside of Italy. I know the area is a bit out the way but it is only a 5min train journey from Queen street to Alexandra Parade and then a 1min walk from train station to restaurant. It is relatively small inside but this made it feel cosy rather than claustrophobic. We ordered a lovely bottle of white wine which was from a small producer in Italy. It was only £15.95 for the bottle which I thought was very reasonable considering how tasty it was. I had the local deli platter to start and it was lovely £8.98 for a huge selection of Italian meats (4 different kinds), olives, aubergines, salad and 2 different cheeses. We were also given a hugh basket of bread to eat - this was fresh and very tasty. My only gripe about the deli platter is that I would like slightly less meat and more salad, olives and aubergines. My fiancee had chilli fried prawns to start. They perfectly cooked and very fresh. For my main I had ravioli of the day - this was spinach and ricotta in a garlic and sage butter sauce. It was delicious. It was not a massive portion but this was fine by me as had a big starter. My other half had a stonebaked pizza with steak (YES STEAK!!), pepperoni, bacon and vegetables. It was amazing. It had the thinest base ever and had plenty of toppings. It could have gave La Favorita a good run for it's money! We were shared a caramel shortcake sundae. This was also delicious. The bill came to £55 which for the quality of food and a bottle of wine, I thought was very good value for money. The staff were very freindly and helpful. I can't wait to go back to try more of their menu. read more

Celino's has the same kind of thing as Coia's down on Duke Street going on. It's a Dennistoun institution. I haven't actually eaten in the restaurant section (yet!), but their deli is lovely. It sells all manner of Italian food from the fairly big shop. There are oils, cooking sauces and treats, including Walkers Shortbread! The fresh foods counter has a huge variety of hams and cold meats, as well as tubs of olives, sun dried tomatoes and cheeses. Because most of their food is real Italian, all the boxes are in Italian, so I don't even know what some of the stuff is. But if you ask any member of staff, I'm sure they'd be happy to help. It prides itself of being a member of the local community. read more

Celino's is an Authentic Italian deli and cafe situated on Alexandra Parada in the East End of Glasgow. It imports a range of stock from Italy including biscuits, cake, pasta and sauces. Celino's has a homely feel with family photographs lining the walls. My favourite feature of Celino's is the tubs of homemade pasta and risotto and garlic bread baguettes which are available to take away for very reasonable prices (tub of pasta costs £3). Perfect for those nights you can't be bothered to cook. read more

Just around the corner from my flat. Celinos is an all too tempting alternative to cooking. Small, cosy and always bustling, it's a great place for a special occasion. You'll often see large parties in the restaurant. The menu is massive, so look online before you go if you're anything like me and take half an hour to pick. The menu has a selection of pizzas, pastas, calzones, meat dishes, fish, salads and hundreds of amazing desserts (they're famous for them). I always go for some pasta - everything from the carbonara to the prawn linguine is excellent. The portions are massive so I've yet to clear my plate. Ice cream fans will die with happiness at the sundaes available - huge and the variety is impressive. Scottish tablet is particularly good! The only negative is that sometimes a couple of the staff can be very stand-offish, bordering on rude. The last time we went in and asked for a table without a reservation we were looked at like we had committed a terrible sin. They said it was fully booked - no problem! Funnily enough as soo as we said we would go to the Italian over the road a table seemed to magically appear for us. Most of the staff are friendly and like a good bit of banter though. It's a real East end gem. If there's ever a sunny day in Scotland again, it's also lovely to sit outside for breakfast and a coffee. read more

I am ashamed I haven't wrote this review before now...*blush* Celino's is my local Italian restaurant/deli and I have been a customer of theirs for many years now. I first came with an old work colleague who took me here for lunch (and also couldn't believe I hadn't been here before!) and she had the meatball & mozzarella ciabatta (The Soprano, haha!) and I opted for the Celino Special ~ ciabatta with parma ham, salami, emmental cheese, lettuce, sun blushed tomatoes & mayo. We also ordered cappuccinos. I was impressed. Oh yes. My posh sandwich was so tasty & I vowed to come back...which I did the following week, bringing with me my boyfriend. Celino's first opened in 1982 & used to be a small Italian cafe & delicatessen (if you visit their website they have photos of how I first remember it looking), with only a few tables for sitting in. Now Celino's seems to be growing by the week! Every time I pop in for eggs (they sell THE best free-range farm eggs) they seem to have squeezed in another table! This speaks volumes as to how popular Celino's has become. Also recently they have extended their opening hours ~ they're open until 10:30pm Mon-Sat and until 10pm on a Sunday. This was great news for me as before they only opened late on a Thurs,Fri & Sat and even then it wasn't that late. This place really became super popular when Celino's started their (now famous) Italian Tapas deal, which originally was only available 1 day of then week but now I think they have extended this to include other days. Their Italian Tapas menu gave you a choice of 3 tapas dishes for £11.95. Now before I had this I thought '£11.95 is not super cheap..." BUT for what you get this price is great! I did not expect SO much food! They're not stingy that's for sure. Woah. The choices of tapas dishes do change every now & then but Celino's seem to specialise in seafood ~ I, unfortunately, have an allergy to bivalve molluscs (so this includes most seafood) so I have only ever tried a couple of the seafood dishes one being the Gamberoni Siciliana, which is always super tasty. Alongside that other tapas dishes I plump for include Pollo Milanese, Bistecca or the steak & chips (yes! Steak & chips tapas! Drooool...) The atmosphere & decor of Celino's is really cosy & modern. Because they have tried to squeeze in as many tables as possible you can sometimes find yourself feeling a bit 'in the way' of passing customers or waiter/esses...but it doesn't bother me when I know I'm gonna get a good meal. The staff in here are always super nice in the cafe/reastaurant & deli. We're in here quite a lot but even when we first started visiting they were always really friendly to us. Their A La Carte menu is full to the brim of delicious Italian meals including great pizzas, very yummy calamari (we order this almost every time we're here!), hunners of pasta dishes, risottos, seafood, steaks, veal & chicken dishes. My favourites are all their chicken dishes (it's hard for me to pick one!) & any of the their risottos. Delicious. Oh also their chips are very good too! As well as their deli, cafe & restaurant they also offer many tasty take-away options including a few of their pasta & risotto dishes. These are brilliant for those evenings when you can't be bothered cooking or you don't fancy a regular take-away. I've had their risotto to take-away & it was so good & you get a great sized portion too for the price. They also sell their own garlic bread to take-away too if you fancy that. The coffee here is lovely too & I often pop in for a take-away Americano as a wee treat for myself. The deli has a brilliant selection of cold meats, cheeses, homemade risotto balls, loads of antipasto dishes & also various pastries & cakes too. They have also recently started selling bagels & a few other cream cakes, all of which look so good. There's also a wee shop bit as you walk in selling various Italian produce. Even though I am (sadly) moving away from the area soon I'm sure I shall still be back to Celino's for my Italian fix. They're so handy for the Alexandra Parade train station & various buses so no excuses! If you haven't ventured East, along Alexandra Parade to make a visit to Celino's then please make the time & effort to. Celino's is a great wee family run Italian restaurant/cafe/deli and it deserves your attention. Ciao for now. read more

Was in the deli today bought some cold meat and foccacia bread and decided stay for lunch. I had choice of breakfast menu or lunchtime 2 to 3 course menu. I opted for lunchtime menu and choose the smorgasbord a pure delight a mix of Italian meats, olives, Italian salad leaves and mozzarella served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar with loads of bread and for next course risotto a la verdure with roasted peppers, courgette and aubergine was nice just a little heavy handed on the salt think chefs hand slipped. Lunch was a bargain was lucky get seat as the place is normally heaving. I highly recommend the deli and bistro. Would been a five due to salty risotto read more

Went back for seconds last week and they certainly weren't sloppy. Amazingly friendly service, tasty food cooked to perfection, no cause for complaint! Love the family feel of this place - it's warm and inviting. But although aspects of this ristorante are traditional, it's not stuffy in the slightest. Fresh, modern and excellent Italian flavour = happy belly. I could easily get fat in here, not a problem at all! read more

Celino's.... ahhhhhhhhh! I first came in here to use their excellent deli counter, for my Friday night smorgasboard of baby buffolinos, olives, tomatoes and Italian sliced meats. Later, I started buying my xmas pressies here from the selection of interesting Italian digestivo's and liqueuers and only recently came to the restaurant food itself. Fantastic grub, well cooked and presented and always served with a smile. The food is as other reviewers haver said similar to that of Coia's but you have none of the rushed feeling here that you can have there. Here you still feel as though you are dining 'a la familia' Highly recommended :) read more

This place is a superb restaurant in the heart of dennistoun. An area that is definitely not know for first class eateries. It is a deli / restaurant that you can also just order takeaway pizzas from as well. In terms of the pizzas they are really good, thin crust and full of flavour. You are getting Italian restaurant quality pizza here but are able to take it home. Definitely highly recommended. Next to sit is also great. It's quite traditional Italian in style, but definitely does what it offers exceptionally well. Staff are really friendly and very helpful. You should go along for a visit your likely to love it! read more

Went with the two girls from work for a quick lunch as it is just 5 mins away from our work. We decided to stick to the two courses for £9.95 and I went for the patty and crispy italian bread and for my main course the chicken in whiskey sauce with rice. My colleagues went for the Patty and a bruschetta type starter with the two of them opting for the risotto for their main courses. The place was very busy for a Monday lunch time and our lunch came pretty quickly which was good for us seeing as we only had an hour. Portion sizes were fab for a set menu and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Will be back to try the main menu another night. read more

It's simple. It's not pretentious and it all works the food is among the best itailian food iv tasted. The waiting staff were very polite and very professional I had a beter standard of service and food in here than some others at twice the price. read more

Okay where to start... As others have said Celinos is located on Alexander parade,this being a busy street parking outside the shop can sometimes be a pain but you will usually get a space in one of the side streets without a problem. The shop its self has a huge selection of Italian/exotic,meats,cheese and pastas. The smells inside this place are unreal.The decor is authentic Italian delicatessen,the atmosphere in the place makes you feel "special" just popping in for a sandwich lol Staff are both friendly and welcoming and have good knowledge of the products they sell(Very rare these days!) Service is delivered promptly. I have been a customer of Celinos for years now and I don't intend to change any time soon! read more

Love this place and so happy it's just along the road from where we live! Regularly go to the deli for takeaway sandwiches and 9 times out of 10 it's great. Today was one of those times and after a walk in the snow I popped in here to get lunch to take home and it was well worth it. I opted for a chicken mayo baguette (not exactly italian but very yum!) and the boyf got his usual Celinos special which is italian meats, cheese and sunblush tomatoes on a ciabatta. The guy who served me was lovely and friendly and knew what he was doing. The deli has such a great selection and it is great to have a gem like this in the east end. It's well worth a try read more

Celinos is a small family run cafe and deli. I wouldn't quite call it a restaurant as the feel of the place is quite casual. The deli sell lovely meats and cheeses to take away and their sandwiches are good. The food in the cafe is lovely..the seafood pasta is one of the best I've had. The prices are quite expensive for the setting but the food lives up to the price. Have dined using the 5pm deal which is 2 courses and a glass of wine for £10 which is good. The pizzas are thin and authentic. However I just cannot fall in love with this place like many others..mainly because of the atmosphere. It is always busy and I do go now and then because I live close by but I wouldn't travel to here if I didn't live close by. read more

I used to go to Celino's all the time. I loved both the sit in menu and the take away menu. Their pasta dishes are to die for and the ciabatta rolls and baguettes were always freshly baked on the day. It was definitely 5 star quality for 2 star prices. However, after not having been to Celinos for just under a year, I stopped by for a take away sandwich for my friends and I. I have to say I was very disappointed by what I got. The french fries I ordered were cheap frozen chips and the container was only half full and the coleslaw (which used to be one of my favourite things to order as it was homemade) has now been replaced by a cheap shop bought substitute. The prices have increased (I did expect this) but the quality has reduced. I can honestly say I was quite disappointed and won't be rushing back! read more

OK so I needed to write a review for these guys after we had a great take away meal. We had trouble getting through on the phone to put in our order, when we did the staff were polite and efficient. I arrived to pick up our order and the place was mobbed. Lots of people waiting at the deli counter. This is my only real gripe that I could see my order waiting but it took nearly 10 mins to get served and pay for the order by which time the food was getting cold. Leaving this aside when we sat down to eat we were blessed by some of the best Italian food I have had in Glasgow. Food was fresh and full of flavour. All I ask is to have a slightly more efficient pickup process although I'm glad to see they are busy. read more

Celino's is a great Italian deli-turned-restaurant on Alexandra Parade. What was once a little family run deli counter has gradually grown over the years into a quaint little restaurant and coffee shop, offering the best of Italian produce from filled rolls to home cooked cuisine. Although it's a little on the pricey side, the ingredients are of the highest quality, including homemade pesto and the most delicious sun dried tomatoes. This is a great place to pop into for fresh authentic Italian fare, with a friendly family feel. read more

Celinos appears to very much be cut from the same Italian/Scottish cloth as Coia's. Like its fellow Eastender, it is half restaurant and half deli, stocking a wide range of Italian goodies ranging from pre-cooked meals to Oxo "cubettis". With family portraits scattered across the walls it resonates much of the same traditional, homely feel as Coia's and most importantly, both appear to be moving precisely in the right direction even though the area is beginning to show signs of change. Far from being left behind, this place was packed when I visited and continues to thrive thanks to its mouth-watering selection and reasonable prices. For instance, you're talking 3.90 for a 9'' pizza. That'll do for me. read more

I went for a dinner with friends yesterday night and OH MY GOD that would so good! I had read positive feedback but honestly didn't expect it to be so great! As soon as you enter on the left there is a small deli which sells cured meats, cheese, any sort of pasta, biscuits, oil, juices etc all 100% Italian, and they also have a small selection of gluten free and bio items. The restaurant is very small and there are no more than maybe 20-30 seats, but the atmosphere is so cozy and welcoming, like a genuine family owned business. Music was Italian as well, always put a smile on my face. Service was great, staff was very helpful and always making sure we were okay for drinks etc. On Thursday night the pre-theatre menu is available all day, so we decided to go for a two course on that (only £12.95) and order a selection of starters to share among us from the a la carte menu. We got two Antipasto Salumeria for 4 people (we were 5 us of but that was more than enough!) and two Crostini Caprino - everything was delicious and fresh, i was particularly impressed by the last one (toasted bread topped with goat's cheese and caramelized onions) as it was the first time for me trying goat cheese - it is really tasty! From the pre-theatre i got Branzino Acqua Pazza (pan fried sea bass and king prawn cooked with cherry tomatoes in a white wine, lemon and chilli butter sauce, served with herb infused rice) which was amazing, cooked perfectly. For dessert i had Torta Amaretto served with ice cream and cream - nice as well. Overall we were all really satisfied, it is always good to find real authentic Italian restaurant abroad, will definitely come back soon also to try and get something from their deli! read more

Celinos is my local cafe and you'll find me here most Sunday's. It's great to have a place like this in dennistoun. Lovely staff and good food and now moretti on tap!

After reading a few reviews, we decided to have dinner at Celino's and we did not regret it. We were seated immediately upon arrival, the decor was really lovely and the waiters were nice. We had brushetta & calamari for entree which were both delicious. Then we ordered a pizza & pasta which we said we would share and so they had the half & half done for us making it easier for us to eat. The pasta was really nice but the pizza was just average. we'd definitely go back back if we were in the area again, but probably not go out of our way to get there. read more

Ooooh Celino's Celino's Celino's. Nothing at all against the other Italian I reviewed, that's still lovely, but Celino's is in a class of its own. We deliberately go out of our way to come here as often as we can. As mentioned by other reviewers, they have a tapas night on a Wednesday and on a Thursday you can enjoy the pre theatre menu all night! This family run deli/restaurant has been on the go for a number of years and has gone from strength to strength in the past few years since the longer opening hours. It's a very popular place and I'd definitely recommend booking beforehand, even during the week. Before I go on about how great the food is, I want to mention the staff. This is gonna sound mega cheesy but the staff here have a genuine passion for their job. It's like one big happy family, and you're made to feel so welcome when you walk through the door. Always cheerful, pleasant and helpful. Now the food.... Oh. My. God. Now I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to eating out. I like what I know and know what I like. However, at Celino's I have the confidence to try different things because i just know I won't be disappointed. Oh another thing, they've had a bit of a make over recently. Comfier seats, an extra booth and a freshen up on the walls and stuff. The family pictures are still there which is lovely to look at. I really can't rate Celino's high enough. We're addicted to the place read more

This place is a well known gem in the Denniestoun area, for the service, food quality and interior you would be mistaken that you were in a more central location like the merchant city. I recommend a visit, can get busy and there is no surprise why so book ahead read more

Celino's serve authentic Italian food at more than reasonable prices. Their late night set menus, although limited, are absolutely delicious. In the city centre you would easily pay twice as much for comparable quality. The staff are really friendly and this gives the place a real family run atmosphere. As if the food is not only above standard for a restaurant (let alone a cafe), there is a delicatessen counter with an Aladdin's treasure trove of gastric goodies. The owner, a pleasant chap called Claudio, is an enthusiast of his wares and will make a point of having a chat with everyone. All in all, a good atmosphere to go with the good food. read more

I live right down the street from here & pass it every time I'm walking to the town, and EVERY time think "I have to go in there for a cappuccino & a slice of tiramisu!" Finally I decided after having dinner at home I'd go check the place out. This review is for Celinos deli and take away counter so hopefully in the near future I'll have an updated review on a sit down 3 course meal (or 5 if I'm going with true Italian course structure! :-p) the deli is full of authentic Italian brand items, meats, cheeses, olives, breads and antipasto selections to take home. They even sold Italian brand beer! Since I already had my dinner I had my eye on the dolce/deserts which included cannolis, chocolate cake, tiramisu (which I ended up getting!) and a few more sweet treats. Service was quick and friendly, the only downside was the server plopped my cake into a cardboard container so carelessly making it look like a mushy glob rather than cake (which if you've had tiramisu you know its already a very creamy and delicate cake.) I took it home put it in the freezer for a bit, shaped it & added a few strawberries & it tasted magnificent! Perfect creamy whipped mixture combined with delicious coffee flavoured with cocoa powder, my taste buds were in heaven! Can't wait to go back and try different courses :) read more

Returned here last weekend - had the delicious pizza with aubergine - delightful and I was offered a take away box for the half I couldn't finish.

I love Celino's. Italian deli, restaurant and takeaway all in one. They have high quality Italian food stuffs, a deli counter, takeaway lunches and a full restaurant. My personal favourite is the Celino Special sandwich with parma ham, salami, cheese, sunblushed tomatoes and mayo-YUM! read more

Celino's is fast becoming a family favourite. Again we were not disappointed at all by the level of service we received on an exceptional busy Mother's day, 3 course for £19.95 you couldn't ask for more! Can't wait to go back! As usual we spent a small fortune at the deli counter, which again is all absolutely delicious read more

Celino's is the go to for me whenever I'm craving a carb overload and generally tasty, authentic Italian food. It is a multi award winning deli style restaurant in Alexandra Parade/Dennistoun where you can snag one of the relatively few tables or go straight to the deli counter and choose from a huge selections of Italian meats, cheese, ciabattas or nibbles. Always has a really warm, comfortable atmosphere, which I don't know if this is down to how small the place is, the lovely staff or all the delicious looking Italian treats lining the walls. When I was there for dinner earlier this week (a Monday) it was heaving and only had a couple spare tables but they managed to squeeze us in thankfully, so if you're planning ahead, booking might be a good idea. I always end up going for one of their pasta dishes because they always hits the spot. Last time I went for the Spaghetti Polpette (meatballs) and it was delicious. Really simple tomato based dish but so tasty. Also recommend their arancini (risotto balls), which are massive and absolutely delicious, and the brocolini pasta cooked with white wine and garlic..(slabbers over keyboard). Well priced for such good quality and set menus for lunch offer a good deal. If you're in the area (or even if you're not) highly recommend you get down to this cute little place for an Italian feast. read more
