Called in here on another foul night (evening before other restaurant we have reviewed) and found it to be just perfect. We were made very welcome, everything went at our pace and food and wine were excellent. Very friendly owners (well the one we met was - the other was chef for the night) and the atmosphere said it all.... More

This Restaurant is on Poole Quay, a little away from the noisy end. You almost come across it by chance. The welcome is so warm, quite a tiny bar area, but not a problem because you are soon shown to a table. The staff are superb, I suspect a bit like swans, gliding around on the top but paddles working... More

We have been coming here for over 30 years. It's unpretentious, friendly and welcoming to,locals and tourists alike. Great pizza. Varied menu. All the food is freshly cooked for you. Hen parties do come here so beware if you want a quiet meal. They love kids and adults alike. Good value, independent Italian restaurant . Well worth a visit daytime... More

Food was loved by 7 from 8 of our group, and the service was very friendly. Slightly overpriced i felt for the quality of food served and the house Rose was nice but again over priced.

My husband and I booked this after having many excellent meals at LaLupa. We arrived at 6.50pm and left at 7.20pm after eating 2 courses which might explain a lot. On arrival we were straight away treated by our waiter who was, I can only describe, over friendly. He even went to a neighbouring table and asked them for a... More
