Our group chose a number of tapas plates to share to start and then followed with various of the pasta dishes plus (for one of us) a pizza. In addition, a number of typical Italian dishes were available as mains. The tapas were all fine, and the pastas were good, too, especially the gnocchi. The serves were all generous, and so we didn't feel the need for desert (so we missed out on sampling the chocolate pizza, which was one of the offerings - whatever that may have been!). The service was good and the total bill (including corkage for our BYO wine) was very reasonable, which perhaps explains why the room was so crowded (and, as a result, a little noisy).

Enjoyed our first meal here with a small group of friends (6 of us). The night we attended was a Wednesday but the restaurant was full and quite noisy. Booking is essential. The layout was such that the tables were end to end down the length of the place.

Intimate conversations were difficult but the food was really very nice. The restaurant service pizza and pasta as well as tapas. Our table shared a Dip Platter for entree with plenty of bread and then 6 choices from the Tapas menu including Kataifi Prawns, (wonderful), Saganaki, (also wonderful) and Zucchini Fritters - ditto as well as other tasty treats.

We finished with 2 choices from the dessert menu, Churros and Loukmades.
Overall the food was Yummo and very reasonably priced. Each plate was between $10 and $11 (6 items per plate) and the prawns, king size, were $13 for three.
We will go again for sure.
