Beautiful clean Italian restaurant in the center of Ripon, with separate vegan / vegetarian menu. Friendly staff, good food and cheap.
Me and my boyfriend went for tea tonight .. It was lovely served straight away, friendly and polite staff.. The food was amazing and worth every penny
Me and my wife had a fantastic meal here, so much so we made ourselves sick trying to finish it as we didn’t want to waste any. Very generous portions and thoroughly enjoyed the mojito Didn’t manage to get the name of our server but she was so lovely and welcoming so thank you for making it such a lovely experience. Best garlic Mayo in all of ripon!!
Thanks for a great 40th Birthday meal. Couldn't fault it. Great service from the staff. Will be back !!
Been a few times with the same group of friends (and children) food was delicious, fresh and very tasty, the staff are always very friendly and helpful and amazing with the kids will definitely be back.
