    Lovely ,lively atmosphere , waiting staff very attentive, helpful explaining the menu. Amazing how the staff move around small walkway between tables and the bar dining areas . Nice for a fun evening, tasty food , can be a more pricey evening with wine and drinks but for a special occasion or just a lovely evening out.

    We had lunch at Little Capo. Service was good, staff were friendly and helpful. The place was busy but not full and the noise level was high, just from people chatting. It was difficult but not impossible to have a conversation across the table. The ambience was pleasant nonetheless. Food was Mediterranean fresh, well presented and tasty. The olives were memorable, as was the olive oil chocolate cake and the mondo o. The wine list was fairly extensive and well curated but with no option for beer or cider.

    Fabulous all around. The servers were wonderful with describing the menu. The calamari was amazing. My husband had the Cioppino and I had a veggie pasta dish. Both were delicous with each bite offering many flavours. Tiramasu for dessert, you guessed, was incredible!

    DELICIOUS! Everything on the menu sounded great we were spoilt for choice. Our waitress was super attentive and offered to split our food onto two plates in the kitchen to help share the mains as the portions are super generous. Too hard to choose a stand out dish - genuinely everything we had was excellent. The venue itself is beautiful and has a super lively atmosphere (loud chatter but nothing too distracting) - can’t recommend enough !

    Great recommendation! Busy, buzzy friendly atmosphere and delicious food. Zucchini simply delicious as was burrata with beetroot - excellent focaccia- broccoli on bed of beans? - delicious char grilled Flavour but perhaps a little bit too al dente. Main courses were good but not as good as starters! The strawberry and rhubarb pudding and the tiramisu were exquisite! Staff all very friendly and attentive. Did feel the wines were on the pricey side. Will definitely recommend and look forward to eating at Little Capo again!
