Went for dinner on valentines and realized we have a find right under our noses on West End Lane. My wife had the oysters and I had the tiger prawn appetizer. Both were very good. The prawns were head on and butterflied over a bed of lettuce with a lime and chili sauce. Very fresh and delicious. For the mains my wife had the seafood dream which was a seafood linguini that was out of this world. Fresh made linguini with an excellent tomato sauce flavoured with brown shrimp and loads of seafood. I had the vitello marsala which was the only lowlight. The veal was perfectly cooked and very tender but was just too sweet for me. The waitress explained it was true marsala the Sicilian way but not my taste. That said they were extremely nice and took it off the bill. Dessert was banofi pie with nutella which was excellent. Given the service and food quality of everything bar the marsala I’ll be a neighbourhood regular. Highly recommended given the service and food quality put this with one of the better Italians I’ve had in London.

Went here with the husband on a groupon offer; and was more than ecstatic with the pleasant staff and excellent food.
The seafood was exceptional. We had the seafood platter which consisted of a whole lobster, jumbo king prawns, mussels and clams.
Not a huge mussel or clam fan myself but we did not leave anything behind. Had it with the basket of bread to soak up the tasty white wine sauce. Exceptional.
Simple. Authentic. Tasty.
A must try.
