The food and drinks were not that great. Not a fan of this place…read more The pizzas were not that yum. The pasta, we asked the chef to make penne in Alfredo sauce, which he couldn't, and gave us plain cream sauce... To which we added oregano to make it tasty. The arabiatta was OK, not that juicy to relish. The garlic bread also was not that relishing. The wine was too strong for the pallette, the nose burned a little with the strong flavours. We loved the hosts, the waiters were friendly, and served us well though.

My colleagues and I came here for a work lunch, and everyone was absolutely thrilled with the…read morechoice. It was bustling on a Tuesday lunch time (admittedly it was half-term), so I'm glad we booked in advance! The servers were kind and considerate across the board. I currently have a bunch of weird dietary restrictions and they couldn't have been nicer about it. I was frankly amazed with how considerate they were, checking with the kitchen about everything, and taking it very seriously and not making me feel like a picky idiot. They have a great multi-course lunch deal, but only get this if you're super-hungry as the portions were hilariously massive! The size of these dishes was unreal - huge portions of fish, giant calzones, cavernous plates of pasta - everything looked great and my colleagues were thrilled. Due to my restrictions, I had a more boring meal of a fresh side salad with oil and vinegar (though it was nice and and colorful, with bright greens, juicy tomatoes, bell peppers, and cucumber), some cheese bread that they gave me gluten-free (normally it's garlic bread but they left the garlic off for me), and a chicken breast with arrabiata sauce sans onion and garlic (again, they went out of their way for me). The gluten-free pizza bread was actually great - it's really like a small pizza appetizer, not "bread" so much, but the GF base was super crispy and it was covered in melty cheese. It isn't really fair for me to comment on the main - how can you judge a tomato sauce when you've forced them to take out the onions and garlic?? - so all I can say is the portion was huge (the chicken must have been a monster!) and I was so grateful for how they helped me out. Servers are more than happy to wrap everything up if you don't finish it. Desserts are big too and looked great. All my colleagues were patting me on the back for choosing this place. We all recommend it highly and I'm sure we'll be back!

In the new Sunny Side development near the old Post Office, Angelos is a lovely Italian restaurant…read more It's nicely derated and has a nice atmosphere to it. It's not expensive, but expect to pay a bit more than the usual italian. The bread for starters is very nice, and I loved the trio lasagne which has three types of lasagne is one dish. The risotto which we got by mistake was also very tasty. They have a roaring fire which can get a bit hot if you're sitting right next to it. Be sure to book on popular nights and it does get quite busy, although we've never had a problem.
