    I went to have lunch and a catch up with a few friends today and went to Bexleyheath for the first time! We had lunch at this really nice Italian restaurant and the menu selection was really good. The food that I ordered was excellent, I would even go as much to say it was the nicest pasta dish that I’ve had for a long time! Delicious food. Friendly staff. Excellent wine list. Highly recommended

    We enjoyed authentic Italian dining experience here. The restaurant was somewhat busy on a Sunday night and seemed to be a popular place with the locals. We selected the Baked Avocado for a starter and for our entrees we selected the chicken pasta and the scampi pasta. Our food was robust and flavorful. The service was impeccably attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is casual, comfortable and very clean.

    Friendly staff but each staff member seemed to have just a few too many tables in their section as it was hard to flag down our server but other staff were happy to take our orders. I ordered the ribeye steal. It was okay but nothing amazing and certainly not worth £21.95. I asked for medium and there was zero pinkness. Aside from that the drinks were great as was the Tiramisu.

    The best Italian restaurant you can find in London. The food is absolutely delicious, couldn't believe how tasty it was and the meals are so generous, all the ingredients they use are really high quality , the staff is so friendly and helpful and you get the food within minutes. So definitely 5 stars from me .

    Fantastic Italian restaurant in the heart of Bexleyheath! The food was delicious and the service impeccable. I highly recommend the Tagliatelle Posillipo and the calamari. I’m looking forward to returning!

    Absolutely delicious. If they ask at the end if you want pudding. There’s no need to check the menu. Just order the Tiramisu

    What a gem of restaurant we found, not too far from home. Fantastic meal!!! Calzone was delicious, my daughter loved her pasta and the fried whitebait and calamari were amazing! And the desserts were simply fantastic. Definitely recommend and will go back asap with all my Italian friends!

    Terrible place! We came for a dinner with family but were unable to stay as music was too loud.. Update: Seriously? Your food could be good but we were unable to try it because of VERY LOUD MUSIC! There are no points to stay when you can not normally communicate with your family members. If you can not create proper atmosphere - you do not deserve anything more than 1 star. You are "restaurant and pizzeria" not a disco club.

    Portions are generous. In general dishes cooked with passion. We enjoyed everything we ordered, including the baked eggplant with cheese in tomato sauce, lobster and crab meat lasagna which was rich in flavor, and lamb shank with mesh which was hearty. All in all a delightful experience.

    Nine of us had lunch here today. Some had never been before but all agreed it was a wonderful meal and will be returning. Most of us chose the lobster and crab lasagne from the specials menu and it was amazing, as was the tiramisu! Can’t wait to return!

    30 members of a club attended... food was hot, delivered on a timely basis without material delay between diners, and lots of positive comments about going again. So a good time had by all.

    Very enjoyable meal. The food was lovely and very generous portions. The waiting staff were very attentive, even on a busy night. The reason I have given 4 stars rather than 5 are that every other table but us received complimentary limoncello. Also, My Margarita had no sugar syrup in it all which made it far too sharp.

    This is a perfectly good little Italian restaurant. Good food and service at a reasonable price. I have only had lunches there and I find the atmosphere a bit cold but I would certainly go there again.

  • 5/5 Simon L. 9 months ago on Google
    A lovely authentically Italian restaurant. The staff are brilliant and the food is always very tasty. Pizzas are huge, so little ones can share, or do as we did and ask for a take-out box for the leftovers. It might be nice if they introduced a children's menu. Can't fault this place though. Always delicious, well cooked food.

    Fantastic food. Friendly staff, but not in your face. Nice atmosphere.

  • 5/5 Byron L. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food, great people and a lovely environment. The food was clearly cooked from fresh, the seafood was the best I've had in South London. The staff were exceptionally nice and went out of their way to help, couldn't fault any part of the experience. Can't wait to go back.

    Absolutely love this place! We have been lots of times and always had a good service and meal. Best of all for me, they can adapt dishes to make them gluten-free. Friendly staff and lovely and clean.

    This was a great family meal. Will definitely be returning. The food was great. We ordered a starter with the drinks for our little one so he didn't get grizzly and they accommodated. Great baby change facility. Starters and mains tasted great. One negative: very very hot in the restaurant.
