We just had a lovely meal at Da Vinci’s in Poole! Food was excellent, every starter, main and dessert that we ordered were amazing, but best of all was the service and how we were looked after by Paolo and his fellow staff members!
It was my birthday and it was the perfect way to finish a great day!
Thank you
As usual, excellent service and excellent food. One of my two favourite restaurants in Bournemouth. It’s a “must visit” if you like seafood. My favourite starter here is the half-dozen fresh oysters.
The food was excellent and the service very good. There were plenty of people having food but we were served very quickly. The food was hot and delicious.
