Was craving the spaghetti bolognese from here, which has been my comfort food since 2019, so I ordered and it was perfect just as always. None of that excess mince and no sauce or excess sauce and no mince that other places do. Always exactly what I'm after, perfectly balanced, and the portion size especially is just right. I ordered for delivery this time but have always received the warmest service from all the staff anytime I have been in person (which back in 2019/2020 was almost weekly). Also they did a truffle and proscuitto special pasta two weeks ago and it kills me that it is not on the permanent menu. Please consider bringing it back (and please let me know when/if you do!).

I went with 2 other friends and we all were very happy with the pastas that we ordered. I had the penne arribiata which was perfectly cooked and even better than in Italy. The service was good with friendly staff. You sit at tables within a food court shared with other restaurants. It makes for a lively environment and I would certainly recommend this place to anyone who likes casual dining.

Had the seafood risotto and the truffle spaghetti. The truffle spaghetti wasn't too truffle flavoured but it did taste good with the salty pieces of cured meat (i think). The pasta was al dente which I like. The risotto was not bad, not too much seafood but still nice. It has little bits of prawn and squid inside. Overall not a bad meal especially on boxing day.

I was a bit skeptical at the rating, but it was way better than I expected. Large servings too, usually, when you order spaghetti, you don’t get enough to fill your tummy, let alone two people. Ordered the carbonara, very creamy, made with béchamel sauce. It was very good and well made. On the other hand, the chicken is something you can prepare at home.
