Hidden away down the backstreets in the city centre, we stumbled across this place by chance when googling an Italian restaurant for dinner.
Was fairly busy but only had to wait for 15 minutes or so. Good selection of starters and mains including fish, chicken, veal, steak and pasta. Also had some specials with mussels, scallops, swordfish or monkfish as options. I had the duck ragout whilst my partner had steak with truffle, sun dried tomatoes and cream sauce which was absolutely divine!
More upmarket compared to other places in the city centre but we’ll worth the price. Food was absolutely delicious and we’re looking forward to coming back soon!

This is a treasure in leicester! The food is amazing, the service incredible. THIS IS BY FAR MY FAVORITE ITALIAN RESTAURANT IN LEICESTER.
I ordered everything they recommended me to and was the best decision.
For a Thursday evening it was fairly busy with a nice atmosphere. Wine was fantastic. Prawns plump and in a delicious, perfected tomato and garlic sauce. I had Penne All’ Arrabbiata with Chicken, arrabbiata being a simple tomato dish but therefore very difficult to make it taste so complex - which they easily managed. Partner had veal. Not for me or him personally but glad we tried it. Had sautéed potatoes with it which were sadly undercooked. Coffee smelt wonderful although unfortunately not something to have in the evening for us :) Overall it was lovely and will be back for more!
A wonderful dining experience. My starter of pasta Gorgonzola had a proper Gorgonzola kick (too often it’s just creamy). We both had the grilled sea bass which was simple perfection. A place to treasure.
Wonderful dining experience.
The food was absolutely delicious, flavoursome, and filling. The service was attentive with that "family restaurant" vibe; so was lovely and personal.
Would certainly come back here as a treat for a special occasion and a change from the regular "chain" restaurants.
This food was phenomenal and authentic. The atmosphere was lovely and they were so accommodating, it was my sister’s birthday and they helped make it so special. Thank you so much would reccomend!!
Delicious food, homely atmosphere and possible the best calamari I've ever had. Highly recommend all the dishes we tried, food was all bursting with flavour, the highlight for me being the calamari. The service was good but was more relaxed then some people might expect but for me it kept with the atmosphere of the place.
I loved everything about this place. It's cosy, staff are very friendly, welcoming and professional. The food was amazing! We got Scallops, Lobster ravioli and Spaghetti Gambri. The scallops were fresh and the sauce was fabulous. I would definitely come again!
Hadn’t been here since I was a kid, came tonight and was delighted with every aspect - delicious food; welcoming, friendly, and attentive service; great atmosphere. Will definitely be returning soon.
Absolutely fantastic food, best I've had outside Italy the lasagne was amazing and the tiramisu was yummy. Will definitely be going again.
