This fantastic little italian restaurant is well deserving of the coveted categorisation ‘local secret’! Easy to walk past in the back streets of Knightbridge, it’s quite small and brilliantly noisy! We were greeted enthusiastically in Italian by at least 3 people and Katja was called ‘bella’ at least twice in the first five minutes which is definitely a plus! The waiter’s all sing, shout, drop plates and laugh constantly. When looking at the dessert menu and asking ‘what’s good’ we were dryly answered with ’sex’.

While the food was pretty good, it is the service and atmosphere that makes this place. It’s highly recommended for a fun night out with friends and also for a romantic dinner… but don’t expect it to be quiet!
