We had the Tutto Bene with the addition of half a dozen oysters. Everything was magnificent. The service was warm and friendly, and because we go there twice a year, the owner and his son have been able to recognise us and we are welcomed. The food is imaginative and very tasty, and the wine selection is great, with something for every taste and budget.

Tried to put us inside despite tables being available outside. We were told that they(?) had booked…. Clearly so had we but maybe Open Table doesn’t count!!! Took us 10 mins to sort that out, after which service was good. Everything overpriced but good quality.

Visited during lunch time and was able to enjoy a few cocktails without the overwhelming atmosphere of most rooftop bars. The bar staff were welcoming, friendly and accomodating. Would definitely visit again! X
