The staff are lovely and the food is excellent. They are very welcoming which gives the restaurant a very homely feel.
The lack of customers would most likely be due to the unawareness/location of this restaurant (it is almost hidden, but near the beach) and that it has opened recently.
I would say make your own judgement rather than listen to a review, but it would be surprising to me if you had more negative comments about the food and establishment.
I would recommend this place to friends, I hope to see more customers in there soon!
We were looking for somewhere to eat that offered more than the usual seafront fare, spotting this place from the main drag we took a chance and went to investigate, at this point not even knowing it was an Italian restaurant. We were greeted by an extremely friendly host who was very attentive and helpful. The food was excellent, freshly made and well presented; there is no kids menu, the childrens' meals are 50% cost of the normal charge but were certainly not small portions. Great service, we will certainly eat here again when we are next in Southend.
I was on holidays visiting my sister. Very friendly service and fantastic homemade food. For the quality and the quantity the price is really cheap. We had set menu per 12.95: caprese and bruschetta, chicken breast that comes with a lovely salad and homemade and amazing tiramisu. So yummy!
I give 5 stars only because I just need to wait a bit for our food.
