Service charge added onto the bill which I don’t agree with! That should be optional and at the discretion of the customer. Dining experience was just ok

The bar was littered with empty glasses being returned by waiters from those seated in the restaurant. We were seated near the kitchen area and had the joy of listening to cutlery being thrown around. The table was clearly put ina place without the space required as waiters had to keep asking us to move our chairs in to get past. We felt in the way. Food arrived and on the whole was good with the exception of the deep fried mozzarella which was more like ricotta and the under cooked risotto. When clearing plates away, one waited dropped a fork down the shirt of one of our party. No apology and had to ask for a wet towel to attempt a clean up. We made the best of a terrible experience and won’t be returning. We only booked as Capri at The Vine was fully booked. Needless to say, we’ll be steering well clear of this branch in future.

The staff did not check if any of the meals were satisfactory, and there was an optional 10% service charge added which we requested to be removed. The risotto with chicken and mushroom was not great either, as the chicken seemed to be cooked from frozen, making it rubbery and dry. However, the rest of the dishes were enjoyable. Overall, it's a hit or miss with what you order at this restaurant.

Well this eatery certainly didn't disappoint. The menu is typical Italian and offers something for every taste. Wine selection...
