AI Summary

Highett's pasta bar obsession. duck pasta, cacio e pepe and a serious Italian wine list.

Cosy, intimate neighbourhood pasta bar with a modern boutique feel. soft lighting, elegant but relaxed, and a genuinely warm welcome from staff who know regulars by name.

Handmade pasta including a widely praised gluten-free option, a seasonally rotating menu, unprompted birthday touches like a candle for dessert, and knowledgeable staff who guide wine pairings.

A modern rather than strictly traditional Italian menu (truffle carbonara without guanciale, inventive pasta pairings), but praised by an Italian-speaking reviewer as genuinely well-balanced and fresh.

Most reviewers call it excellent value for handmade pasta and a strong wine list; a small minority found serving sizes a little small for the price.
