"Crikey ! How misleading. A walk-in that was close to a walkout. The presence of many customers and Italian being spoken tempted us in to this place. Generally, these would be ‘good’ signs. How wrong one can be. Tables - too many, too close together. Service - the standard casual, student-day-politeness but no knowledge of what is being served at all. Service 2 - How long does it take to make a pizza? A very long time in this place. Everything seems to be in place for a decent meal. Proper pizza oven: ( allegedly) big on ‘quality Italian ingredients: even ‘learn to make pizza lessons?. Food - Pizza needed longer in oven (panic removal because it took so long?). Pasta - Ok but nothing special at all (the dish lids that double as a grater are an interesting idea but when the piece of cheese was like a school eraser it is redundant). In Italy this place would either have been ignored or bombed. I thought I’d never say this but the thin crust from both Dominoes and Pizza Hut are better …. How sad."
