Amazing food. Amazing service. The perfect amount of variety. Fantastic ambiance. The starters are amazing. The mains are amazing. The deserts are amazing. AMAZING!!!

Awesome traditional homemade Italian food and amazing service. Definitely try the garlic bread!Was a great surprise as we weren't expecting to eat here but extremely glad we did.

I have now been here twice and both times i have been blown away by Alessandro's amazing service and there truly spectacular food. It certainly has my pick as the best restaurant i have been to and by far the best in Hamilton.<br/ <br/ i don't know how these people that have rated it poorly can do so it really is fantastic, small homely feel about the place makes you want to come back

Fantastic! Friendly atmosphere brilliant service. Initially they got my order wrong (was very busy that night), but they rectified instantly apologized profusely even offering a complimentary drink. The food was amazing, had that home-made appeal to it. Will definitely be going back when in Hamilton!

Decided to eat here on spur of the moment, but encouraged by other mm reviews.<br/ Arrived 6.30 and the place was empty so retired to a bar up the road for a predinner drink. On return discovered the place almost full and buzzing and this was a sunday night!<br/ <br/ The food was plentiful and tasty, good ' 'honest ' ' italian fare and we were attended to by a friendly waitress throughout the evening.<br/ <br/ A nice touch at the end when the chef came out to chat to us, and try and convince us to have a pudding (next time for certain as we were both absolutely full up on mains of gnocchi and canelloni.<br/ <br/ Definitely a family bistro type place that I 'd take the kids to next time and lots of the menu I 'm looking forward to trying.
