San Carlo Cicchetti

The Pistachio Cake is not really a cake in the traditional sense but instead a three-layer, custardy, delicate mousse like dessert with a soft, crumbly base. Not too sweet, which I loved and not an overly strong nutty taste, which I loved even more. I rarely rave over desserts, but this cake is simply sublime.

A great place for dinner in the area, the Italian cuisine is to a really good standard and the quantity you get is also substantial enough. We found the service to be absolutely brilliant, constantly topping up our glasses from our bottle and very speedy from taking our order to the arrival of food. It was also very busy, I would say maybe it’s too busy though and does feel a bit crowded at points with a big open plan arrangement of tables. Overall I would say I’d definitely recommend, especially with friends or a group of people. It can get pricey, but well worth it.

Amazing food, exceptional service and such a lovely atmosphere. I went for a lunch with sister and my little boy which is 6 months, we've been served with lots of smiles and our boy could not be happier being carried around and checking all the fresh fishes! Amazing Italian restaurant with true Italian feeling! Will definitely be back! Thank you so much!

A beautiful experience and it will not be the last. Thank you to the employee Zico from Tunisia. He is a distinguished person and reflects the reputation of the restaurant. Congratulations to this employee.

Atmosphere: A very stylish, elegant and luxurious atmosphere, with colourful plants arojnd the bar, boasting their daily fresh seafood on ice as we walked to our table. Service: One of the managers took our order, he was very stern looking but polite and patient, and repeated our order back to us. Food came out very quickly and all came out around the same time. They forgot our drink orders so we gave them a couple of reminders as we were already halfway through our food; however, due to an issue with another customer, they forgot our drinks again. We just asked to cancel our drinks and moved on to order our desserts. *it did take 20 minutes to get someone's attention to get our bill at the end* Food: Ravioli Lobster £11.95 Nice texture to the Ravioli pasta dough; the sauce on top was just the right amount; however, we could not taste the lobster filling and it was more of a powdered consistency. 3/10 Lasagne Emiliane £9.25 Piping hot, rich tasting mincr beef with a lovely creamy white sauce. The cheese was grilled to perfection. The lasagne was the best thing that we ordered, could not fault the dish at all. 10/10 Spaghetti Shelfish £18.95 Super fresh tasting clams, mussels and Prawns in this dish. The tomato sauce was perfectly seasoned with the pasta and seafood, and was also nice to dip our garlic bread in. 8/10 Panna Cotta £6.95 One of the best panna cotta we had ever eaten. Such a smooth, creamy and rich texture - melted in our mouths. The coulis and berries added some citrus which helped to balance the sweetness. Very generous on portion size. 10/10 Creme Caramel £6.95 We really wanted to like it as we eat this dish often; however, this dessert was really disappointing. The creme caramel came out falling apart on one side, the texture was eggy like scrambled egg not silky at all, and there were lots of bubbles in each mouthful. Caramel was nice and sweet. 2/10 Overall: 7/10. We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience, with the food coming out quickly, tasting fresh and very authentic. A nice place to go for celebrations or if you fancy treating yourselves. All of the staff are Italian and each person showed a lot of enthusiasm and passion when talking about the food.

The food was just absolutely delicious. We ordered many dishes and desert and loved it very much! My personal favorite from desert was the Pavlovna!!!!!
