    Beef carpaccio topped with fresh arugula, aged Parmesan shavings, roasted zucchini, and fresh figs, offering a blend of rich flavors and textures.
    Two tender, seared lamb chops garnished with fresh herbs, served with crispy potato slices and drizzled with a smooth green herb sauce.
    Creamy burrata cheese served on a bed of mixed greens with ripe cherry tomatoes, drizzled with olive oil and garnished with fresh herbs.
    Tender gnocchi in a rich tomato sauce with cheese chunks, topped with fresh herbs, served with a slice of golden cornbread.

    Excellent service, cosy central location, starter and meat main well below expectations. Maybe it’s just a pasta place. Not value for money

    Lovely location and staff however the food fell short in terms of taste unfortunately and the cost with the special deal was high

    A medley of shrimp and clams in a rich sauce, accompanied by zucchini and red chili peppers, garnished with parsley.
    Thinly sliced raw tuna topped with arugula, sliced carrots, and dark olives, drizzled with olive oil for a light and refreshing presentation.

    Food needed more seasoning. Portions small for the price

    Roasted vegetables with a rich sauce topped with spiced protein, alongside grilled seafood with sautéed vegetables on a vibrant red plate.

    Thr stairs are a bit tight but it's an old building anyway. service was not rushed. food is alright and with the 30% discount deffo worth it (but slightly pricey without it, but again it's a prime location), not many choices in the menu but it suggests they are focusing on certain dishes.

    Crispy fried calamari served with a wedge of lemon and a tangy dipping sauce.
    Creamy tiramisu with layers of coffee-soaked ladyfingers and rich mascarpone, topped with cocoa powder.

    A lovely venue, warm, welcoming and inviting. service was great as was food. Though a little salty for me.

    Nice Italian restaurant tucked away in Leadenhall Market. The entrance is easy to miss as there is only a door in between two pubs. Food is delicious and tasty and of high quality.

    A lovely dining experience with a view of the beautiful leadenhall market down below. The crab meat pasta was cooked to perfection. The salmon fillet was nice but could have been more flavourful. The service was top notch. We had an amazing time.

    Although the entrance to the restaurant was a little difficult to spot initially, once up the rather narrow, steep staircase, the restaurant opens up into a compact and cosy area. Staff were great and the food was ridiculously good. Carpaccio di manzo and the tortellini were to die for. Not a huge menu, but very much a case of' less is more

    It was my first time here and i was amazed by the ambience. I felt like i was in Italy. The staff were incredibly thoughtful and it was surprisingly quiet given it’s located in the heart of Leadenhall market. I’d recommend this place to everyone!

    Everything was ok. Service was pleasant, food wasn’t bad. But for this price I’d like to receive a bit more. Portions were small and flavors were very basic. Kind of meal I could do at home, probably even better than this.
