Good quality ingredients, well cooked. Polite and attentive waiting staff. Views out of the harbour and sea. My wife said the Clam Spaghetti Pasta was the nicest pasta she has ever had, and it was light. The starter of olives and fresh hot garlic bread was perfect. I had the meat Pizza, and it, too, was delicious!

I have just had dinner here with my husband, my 3 year old and my 10 month old. From the moment we stepped in, the way the staff were with my kids was phenomenal. My son went to the main hostess straight away and she went to show him off and from then on we felt so welcome. It’s can be difficult going to dinner with kids, and snooty people around, having staff like this restaurant really made us feel welcome and made our evening. Thank you

I met a friend for the special lunch menu, which was excellent value for money. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we sat outside overlooking Ramsgate Harbour. We both felt that we could have been on the Med! Our food was tasty and well-portioned, and I will definitely return.

Took some friends out on a Sunday afternoon in the rain, very gusty wind too! Lovely welcome and great service. Italian restaurant with great sea views. Wood fired pizza oven gives everything an authentic feel, my friends were most impressed and chose amongst other things Chianti Lasagne, Pizza Tricolore and Pork in mushroom sauce, and delicious Valpolicella 2021 red wine! I ordered Tiramisu for my dessert! All in all delicious food and great company made 2.5 hours fly by!

Went there today and would definitely return- the pizza was so fresh and tasty- it was amazing! Also had a decaf oat latte which was great! The staff were friendly and the place was buggy friendly.
