The staff were all wearing face masks and socially distancing, which was a thumbs up, plus it was clean inside too. The garlic bread was also delicious. Unfortunately that's where the positives end. The staff were attentive, but the restaurant seemed to be far more focused on deliveries and phone orders than on those of us within the premises. They have a VERY limited menu and, to add insult to injury, we found that one of the items we wanted was no longer being offered and should have been removed from the menu (arancini), due to lack of interest from people and limited availability of ingredients. The food also seemed to take ages to arrive and there wasn't much outlook. The pizza was well made and different to most other places, but I wasn't much of a fan, as it didn't have much cheese and included the tomato skins within the sauce. Overall I've had better, but I've definitely had worse too. I think the place was oversold to me and I had high expectations that weren't really met. Would I recommend it? Yes, it's worth a visit, as it's in a nice location and an unusual, old building. Would I go back? I wouldn't hurry back, but I'm glad I've at least tried the place. N.B. The photos included are of the empty restaurant when we first arrived and the food we had.
