After my last two visits, have vowed never to return. Was told today (Saturday, lunch time) after enquiring whether they have a baby seat that "babies aren't allowed here, it's for businessmen"! This is despite only 6 other people being there, none being the usual Monday to Friday suit crowd.

Anyway, my Orecchiette with broccolini, ricotta, chilli and garlic was awful. Pasta was soggy and broccolini was so crunchy I doubted they even cooked it. They also failed to mention dill in their description, it was overloaded with it. My husband's dish, spaghetti with eggplant was pretty disappointed too. Overcooked pasta and so few pieces of eggplant (about 5, all about the size of my baby's pinky) that I had to re-read the menu thinking that, perhaps, we had misread "Spaghetti with eggplant, olives and chilli". Our pizza left a bad taste in our mouths, the sauce was really bitter and the base seemed uncooked.

Service was impolite, unfriendly, unwelcoming and downright rude. I do not recommend anyone go there, particularly families with children under 18 (even if you can pay about $40 a head)! What rubbish.
