“Hidden-away near the Houses of Parliament”, this “airy”, “discreet” and “comfortable” (if somewhat “corporate”) basement “gem” is well worth seeking out for its “interesting” and “eclectic” cucina all’Italiana; “excellent-value” lunchtime prix-fixe.

A “pretty good experience” rewards the critic for his visit to this “smart without being grand” Westminster Italian. Despite being in a basement, he finds it “a light, airy space” with a “summery feel”. He samples the five-course tasting menu, which – after the “spectacular start” from an amuse-bouche – ends up “slightly disappointing”.
