This is a gem of a place. It has new management and a brilliant chef now who makes Italian taste like Italy! The wine reflects quality and value. Worth a visit if you haven’t been there recently. Ron

Hi there to all the lovely staff. I'd just like to say a HUGE THANK-YOU for giving us such a wonderful evening. Six of us pre-booked and came on Friday the 27th. July at 8pm. We were welcomed by the Manager and shown to our table outside immediately. The Restaurant was busy, but we were attended to straight away. It's a family run Restaurant and we were introduced to them all including the lovely Mama, during the course of the evening. They even brought out a Birthday Cake, though we hadn't mentioned it was someones 65th.Birthday. The Food was great, the atmosphere was great. One could believe we were in Italy, not Brighton. we were spoilt to bits. I'm back in Kenya now, but it's an evening I'll always remember. Thank-you so much for your friendliness and generosity. Avee and Friends.

Travelling solo, went through the door and the manager acknowledged me, took about 3 minutes until someone came and invited me to a table however.
I got handed a menu and once the waiter came back I placed my order and the food came astonishingly quickly and I was very impressed. The same with the mains, I had lasagne and it was delicious.
I skipped dessert because I was full with the first 2 courses so I asked for the bill. I was surprised that there was an additional 10% service charge added, not obviously marked as optional. This seems very weird in England, the staff should be paid well already, I'm getting service because I came to a restaurant so not sure why I pay extra to the already restaurant marked up prices. Very American and no idea why you cant just add the service price in the prices of food. Would make much more sense. I'm happy to give the waiting staff a tip if they did a good job, which they did, but don't ask me for it, or put it on the bill that's just down right cheeky! Was not impressed at this policy and should not be randomly adding charges for things you already expect when going to a restaurant. I'm glad they didn't charge me a cutlery charge for using their knife and fork.
Other than this, it was a positive experience and the food was great. Thanks.

I find the negative views quite baffling. We had dinner there last night and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming.
The food was very good and the wine was excellent and well served.
We would definitely go there again next time we are in Brighton.

Randomly walked in on a whim as a party of 3 on a Saturday and had pizzas, risottos and Carbonara... Was amazing. Now when we pop down their with who ever we go with we eat here. It's been consistently tasty and I feel reasonably priced especially for the area surrounding. Can't wait to go again.

Lovely delicious pizza, good restaurant atmosphere and friendly staff.

Waiters including a manager were suprised to see me because i was a tourist from South Korea and it could be a rare occurrence that Asians came to there and had lunch. But in no time they showed kindness. Food was good and a waiter was nice and good. Price is reasonable. BUT Atmosphere was not good. I will recomend all my friends to visit here

The new owners really make a difference. If you are looking for authentic Italian cuisine then you are in the right spot. Pizza and pasta are as good as the one in Rome or Naples. Dont take my word for it, try it for yourself. Great food for a great price!

Lovely meal last night at Zafferelli's before heading to the theatre.
Gorgeous looking pizza that was thoroughly enjoyed by my Dad, and my favourite Spaghetti Carbonara was delicious.
Relaxed atmosphere and attentive staff made our experience an enjoyable evening.

extremely poor service and poor quality food. I ordered 4 cheese filled tortellini, but when it arrived, it was very clearly spinach and ricotta. I was unable to question my waiter about this. As at the same time an argument started between my waiter, the loud owner, the chef and an old Italian lady who came out of the kitchen crying. At one point it looked like the owner had told the chef to leave but was then stopped by the crying old lady. This whole argument happened in the middle of the restaurant, but it was all in Italian, so I am unsure what the cause of it was. When paying the bill I was able to show the waiter that my food was wrong. To which he said that he knew it was but just tried to bluff it out. He then discounted the bill £6.

Colin Halton
Abismal,... Where to start.... absolutely shocking from service to the bill which was the only thing the establishment did take the time to sort out.
Warm white wine served in dirty glasses.
Bland food with no italian real inspirational flavours. Not good in general.
Avoid.
