Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We booked a table for my birthday dinner and the experience was fantastic. Firstly the setting and atmosphere were first class. We were shown to out table by an attentive waitress and given the menu. Our drinks were quick incoming and the wine too. Our...choice of starter, main courses and desserts were good and the food when it arrived was hot, tasty and well prepared and presented. The owner Fabio was polite and was interested in our reason for the visit. He was very pleasant and he and his staff made the evening very special. We will definitely revisit this restaurant and we look forward to trying other dishes on the menu. Thank you. David and Cristiana.More

First visit and a superb experience .We booked on the spur of the moment ,it was a wise decision and we were amply rewarded. Table service was efficient and friendly with a good knowledge of the food and drinks menu. We ordered a steak and...a pasta dish both were presented well and were utterly delicious. We would recommend to both couples and families and it was both great and reassuring to see locals dining . We will return soon.More

Service really slow. Bruschetta at £7.95 one piece of bread which was a very small portion and very disappointing. Overkill on balsamic and no taste of garlic at all. Pizza lovely but bolognese microwaved Gutted as we had looked forward to coming here!

My husband and I with our pooch Lola visited here for Evening Dinner. We were shown to a table that offered space for our pooch to lie down and relax. The waitress was lovely and friendly and took our order. We both had the Garlic...& Chilli Prawns & Garlic bread starter then my husband had the King prawn, mussels & calamari Linguini and I had a melt in the mouth Fillet Steak. The food was fabulous. We felt the prices were inline with the quality food, and excellent service and to top it off we could dine with our dog accompanying us which allowed us to enjoy fabulous food on our holiday in Cornwall.More

We had the hake and monkfish off the specials board and pork.lion. All...were delicious. Couldn't fault any of them. Service was great attentive without being over the top. A definite must visit if in the area. Excellent value for money and q great atmosphere in the restaurantMore

Lovely staff and delicious food - we ate here twice and would definitely recommend it. We had the pork, seafood linguine, mushroom pasta (we had pancetta added to it) and the diavolo pizza. All were fantastic and complimented by lovely wine. Thank you 😊

Down in Penzance area on holiday for the week and booked a different pub/restaurant every night. Booked ‘The Bridge’ In Newlyn as our Italian option not expecting it to be the best eating experience of the week, and that’s not a slight on the other...restaurant’s. Great welcome from the staff and the owner. Good choices of drinks and served nice and quickly. Menu choices were excellent and I had the Gambas (prawns, shell off) and 100% the best I’ve ever had. Everyone else loved their starters. For main I went for seafood linguine and it was top notch. Again everyone else loved their mains. Desert was also very good especially with the complimentary lemon cello 😋. Can only highly recommend. I will travel the extra mile to come here in the future and all my family agree. Also took the kids, dog and a coeliac and all had a great time.More
