The
restaurant
has
a
nice
'local
Italian'
atmosphere
about
it
-
the
tables
are
a
little
closer
together
than
some
places
and
the
high
ceilings
raise
the
volume
of
the
general
murmur
of
conversation
around
you,
but
this
is
more
part
of
its
charm
than
a
problem.
The
only
point
I
would
make
about
the
atmosphere,
however,
is
that
the
door
into
the
downstairs
dining
room
slams
horribly
and
is
very
busy,
which
really
did
detract
from
the
overall
experience.
The
menu
is
surprisingly
large,
which
often
rings
alarm
bells
for
me
as
it's
very
difficult
to
keep
such
a
wide
variety
of
things
freshly
on
hand
in
the
kitchen,
but
given
how
busy
they
were,
this
place
if
any
would
be
able
to
pull
it
off.
We
both
settled
for
pizzas
in
the
end,
and
whilst
the
bases
were
near-perfect
with
that
just
right
sound
when
you
tap
it
from
below,
there
was
rather
a
lot
of
cheese
on
top,
and
combined
with
the
concave
plate
this
meant
a
fair
bit
of
oil
pooled
in
the
middle
which
rendered
it
soggy
-
a
shame,
as
it
was
otherwise
an
excellent
pizza
and
slightly
less
cheese
and
a
flat
plate
could
have
prevented
it.
In
mitigation,
the
tiramisu
was
near
perfect,
with
all
the
right
flavours
individually
distinguishable
and
none
of
the
wrong
ones.
The
service
was
very
good
throughout,
except
for
at
the
very
end.
For
some
reason,
once
we'd
finished
and
we
were
ready
to
pay,
we
just
couldn't
get
anyone
to
clear
the
table
and
offer
the
bill,
and
we
also
noticed
another
table
in
the
room
having
to
call
for
help
as
staff
passed
by.
In
the
end,
I
went
up
to
the
counter
to
pay
the
bill
as
my
partner
putting
on
her
scarf,
jumper,
and
coat
in
stages
didn't
signal
anyone.
Again,
unfortunate,
as
it
was
a
poor
ending
to
an
otherwise
brilliant
evening.
All
that
said,
we'd
still
visit
again
if
in
the
area
as
it
was
an
overall
positive
experience
and
everyone
can
have
an
off
day.
