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.

Visiting from Sheffield we searched for best Italian in Sheffield and were not disappointed. Food was as good as any Italian we have encountered and the service and friendliness of the host and assistant was lovely. We will be back next time.

I booked a table for 6 people on a recommendation and the restaurant did not disappoint. The service was efficient and friendly (not at all rude as mentioned by a recent reviewer) The food, oh my gosh, was delicious … Baked figs with goats cheese,...mmmm and bruschetta - the best I’ve ever tasted. My main of rabbit (on the bone) with polenta chips was a very large portion and equally as good as the starters. Would definitely return.More

Such lovely positive energy from the staff - really attentive, accommodating and upbeat. The food…unreal. Definitely a place to visit 🍝. A bit pricy but so worth it!

Authentic Italian restaurant with a menu to match. Friendly professional staff who clearly enjoy giving a great service with a smile. This was our second visit and it was just as enjoyable as our first. Very tasty food well presented and truly Italian. Good value...and very good meal out.More

We booked the restaurant the evening before. They said we could have the table in the window for 8pm. We said that would be perfect as it was our anniversary. When we arrived at the restaurant. The table we had booked someone else was sitting...there with no explanation we taken to the back of the restaurant to a table in the corner. So not a good start When they came to take the order I asked what dishes had black pepper add to them as I have a very sensitive taste. The waiter told to order the Chicken Milanese as the sauce didn’t have pepper in it so I did. When it arrived the Chicken was ok and the spaghetti had no sauce just some tomato chopped up on it. I asked where was the sauce and was told that how the chef had done it . They took it away and added the sauce. Found the service poor and the food was nothing special.More

So disappointed, we went for my partner’s 60th birthday. I booked online and asked for a window table and had it confirmed it would be available for us. When we got there and said we had a table booked the waiter didn’t ask our name...just pointed to a table that had’t been laid. It felt like we were bothering him. There were people sitting in the window seats but we decided not to say anything. Food was average which is a shame because whenever we go to Brighton we always go there. Also we were given paper napkins and noticed the other tables had linen napkins and breadsticks on the table. I also thought as we spent £100 a complementary drink would have been nice.More

Chosen purely on how it looked from the street which proved to be a very wise instinctive decision. Whilst they were busy and staff light, the two guys running the show gave a warm welcome to my disabled wife and me. To boot, the food...was top end, beautifully presented, hot very tasty and like the two guys, very Italian. Not cheap, but we’ll worth it. Highly recommend.More

As soon as I walked in I felt at home. This restaurant has a lovely ambience. The waiters ensured we continued to feel at home, chatting away to us as they served us. I had the Gamberoni gratinati and it was absolutely delicious. Looking forward...to my next visit.More

Excellent food, excellent service. This is a great place to go in Brighton. We went here a couple of years ago and loved it and thought we would ry it again and were very pleased that we did. They do a great starter which is...figs stuffed with goats cheese which I would recommend. Thank you for a lovely evening.More
