The restaurant was busy and food and service was good but took some time. What we didn’t know was their last orders for food was at 9pm and drinks at 9.30pm and closing at 10pm .. they should mention that in the booking . The outdoors seating is lovely .

I’ve been here before and the service was excellent. Sadly, this time they seemed short staffed and unorganised. It took 30 mins before we were asked if we would like drinks or food. The food we had was great but one drink was forgotten. We asked a couple more times and when it still hadn’t arrived by the end of the meal, we asked to leave it. The waiter apologised and said he would give us coffees or limoncellos to make up for it. Half the group of 6 ordered coffees and we were charged for them all and no limoncellos. Service was automatically added on. Despite the above, the food was delicious, great chef, lots of options for all dietary requirements and a fantastic terrace area. I hope they improve the service as it’s a great restaurant and I would like to return.

For a london restaurant it is ok. Food is fine, service could be better but I think the staff were very new, it took a while for drinks to come. It’s perfectly ok but it’s not somewhere we would go back to.

The outdoor terrace is lovely and totally unexpected in the busy Finchley Rd area. The food was good, service ok (though at one point they got completely overwhelmed and it took for ever / had to ask a few times for our drinks to finally arrive). However, it was very expensive for what it was! We paid 90£ for 1 main course, 2 starters and 2 kids menus + 2 glasses of prosecco. Overall nice experience but it is very overpriced for the kind of restaurant it is.

Pizza wasn’t nice. Wasn’t an even base so everything fell off it Arabiatta was nice but tasted like the sauce was just reheated and not fresh Make sure you press OUTDOOR for the better seating on the terrace as it isn’t clear the terrace is the outdoor seating

We'd chosen this restaurant because of a 2-for-1 deal they were offering, but because we were seated outside, the offer wasn't applicable - so take note of that. I spoke to the manager that this was misleading, and he kindly deducted one pizza from the bill. The outdoor venue is lovely on the sunny days.

Was a wonderful lunch; Excellent antipasti, delicious fresh pasta in the right amount of preparation .... and the desert - Mango Pannacotta, was a hit. Price is more then fair for such a quality. We'll come again soon for dinner.

This was my third visit and have had very good experiences previously. This time I was waiting for at least 15 minutes for someone to offer water and had to call waiter over to order drinks. Otherwise food arrives very promptly and good portion sizes for mains. Will definitely come back because the pizzas look great.
