Loved this place - very fair prices, good portions, and very friendly service! Only marked down slightly as the interior is a bit bland, not much ambience. Could do with dimming the lights a bit and adding a few more touches on the decorating. But that’s my view - totally subjective. I’ll be back! Also…the best home made tiramisu I’ve EVER eaten. And my five friends also agreed!
