Begin your meal with a selection of traditional Italian antipasti, from delicate Beef Carpaccio – thinly sliced raw beef fillet with capers, olive oil and Parmesan – to creamy Burrata served on a bed of rocket, pears and walnuts with a drizzle of honey. Seafood lovers will delight in the Gamberoni Diavola (king prawns with garlic, chilli and white wine pomodoro sauce) or the theatrical Fritto Misto sharing platter of deep-fried scallops, whitebait, squid and king prawns – perfect for two.
The warm heart of our menu is a broad and satisfying range of pasta dishes, many available gluten-free. Highlights include the Linguine Scallop with king prawns, clams and cherry tomatoes in a white wine butter sauce; the Pappardelle Cacciatore with slow-roasted duck, porcini mushrooms and crispy Parma ham; and the indulgent Lobster Ravioli with king prawns, mussels, chilli and garlic in a saffron sauce. For something rich and warming from the oven, the Gnocchi al Forno with broccoli, sundried tomatoes and a creamy gorgonzola sauce is a firm favourite. Our risottos, made with aged Arborio rice, range from a vibrant Risotto Vegetariana to the luxurious Risotto Scallops finished with saffron.
Our fish dishes celebrate fresh, quality seafood — the Monkfish with mussels, king prawns and creamy mustard sauce and the Branzino nell’Oceano (sea bass with king prawns and cherry tomatoes in a light pomodoro sauce) are standout choices. The meat menu features classic Italian preparations including Veal Saltimbocca with Parma ham and sage, and a range of grilled chicken dishes such as the Pollo Marsala in sweet marsala wine cream sauce. For steak enthusiasts, we offer chargrilled rib eye, sirloin, fillet and T-bone, served with chips and salad and a choice of classic sauces.
Our stone-baked pizzas are made to order with a wide choice of toppings. Fan favourites include the Pizza Parma — mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, Parma ham and Parmesan flakes finished with rocket — and the decadent Pizza Quattro Formaggi with gorgonzola, mozzarella, Parmesan and goats’ cheese. Calzone options are also available, including a vegetarian version with goats’ cheese, caramelised onion and spinach.
We’re a proudly family-friendly restaurant, and our Bambino menu offers younger diners a choice of child-sized portions including pizza, spaghetti Bolognese, lasagne, meatballs pasta and chicken nuggets with chips — all at just £6.95, with ice cream to finish.
