I have been a regular visitor to this restaurant for a long time, and I absolutely love their pastas - they are the best in the neighborhood. The restaurant has a wide variety of options to choose from, including a sandwich bar and a fine dining restaurant.

I am in love with this restaurant. This place offers the most delicious sandwiches in the city; full of flavours and very innovative with lots of cheese. Their pastas are also quite delectable. Do try the jacket potatoes as well. I also love the specials. They are also very reasonably priced as well. During lunch, you will find a waiting queue for sure due to the high popularity. Great service as well. Definitely worth a try.
