"I will be dreaming of these dishes when we travel home. Easily the best pasta dishes I have ever had in my life. The server Phillipo Maverick that looked after us mostly was extremely patient with us not having italian and made sure we knew exactly what we were ordering, will make it our mission to return!"

"Even when I was too earlier I got my food very fast. The service was good and the food as well. The restaurant is very close to the street, easy to reach but if you are sitting outside a lot of noise as well."

"Good rustic place, with truly home made 'carsolino' food, mainly meat. Try the goulash gnocchi or tagliatelle, and definitely get a 'pasta crema' for dessert. People who like it (not me) say that Venetian liver (fegato alla veneziana) is very good there. Honest prices."
