Re: Italian arcross from town hall
Went there a few months ago when there was 2 waiters which were great couldn`t do enough for you. the food was also good but went again recently and I/we seemed to be invisable whilst they seem to having a good laugh together down at the open air kitchen.

Re: Italian arcross from town hall
I have been tonight for my youngest grandson's 20th birthday party.
There were 11 of us (family plus girlfriends and boyfriends).
As I was once married into an Italian family, and have visited Italy more times than I can count on both hands, I would like to say that I was impressed with the food, and will be going again.
beats Francos by a mile

Not suggesting that you did , but things do tend to improve when you use a Calabrase or Sicilian accent ,

Aye...I agree. The only approach to be taken on entering any Italian restaurant is to walk in there clicking your fingers, shouting for 'Luigi' and demanding a table pronto - that way you get some respect.
Follow that by demanding the menus sooner rather than next week, peruse the said items and then ask where their tomatos are from.If they can't answer, tell 'em it ain't an Italian and you'll be reporting them to Trading Standards, If that don't work, tell 'em your mate will be arriving from Scilly next week so if they want to stay in business you want free Pizza and Pasta, now.
It works for me every time.

Re: Italian arcross from town hall
I didn't speak any Italian until the end of the evening, after the bill was paid
I am so out of practice that I can only speak it when well oiled
The manager then gave my son a free bottle of wine as a parting 'thank you for your custom' gift.
The manager is Sardinian

Re: Italian arcross from town hall
Went last night, and the food was really good. Could eat it again, instead of this cheese on toast i'm having for my lunch.
