Very nice local Italian restaurant with friendly staff. The pate and the veal in a mushroom sauce are great.

We had a lovely meal here on the 13th Jan. The service was good the food was excellent. It was overly expensive. All food home made which makes a difference. Great ambiance and staff very attentive. It was very clean as I'm very fussy ...

Every Sunday I enjoy a Rosso’s Takeaway/Magners Cider. Most of my Birthday’s I have dined here for many years. I’ve Tried all the Pizzas/Spaghetti Bolognaise/Meatballs. My Favourite is Chicken Kiev/Homemade Lasagna. Homemade Desserts&daily specials are excellent The staff are friendly/efficient. I can’t fault any aspect of this Restaurant and the outside patio is Lovely in the Summer. Well done and Thank you.

We enjoyed an 18th family Birthday party last night. There were 10 of us and our Birthday girl loved it. I could not believe how inexpensive the bill was! Less than 350 including tip. We had 2 courses each, wine and 4 cocktails. Great value.

Wonderful place, I ate at the terrace and it was lovely and cosy. The food was amazing and the service was great ! Food came quickly and everyone was so friendly and welcoming when you get to the door! Me and my friend shared the starter of the bruschetta, and had spaghetti meatballs and carbonara. Then we had the tiramisu and it was splendid! I would definitely go again !

A cosy Italian tucked round the corner. We stepped in and were treated to a lively buzz if conversation. We waited about 30 seconds for waitress to seat us and provide menus. This was the standard menu and a small but delightful specials. Within a few minutes we were asked if we wanted drinks whilst considering the menu and these also arrived quickly. I can't comment on the main menu as we were both enticed by the specials and had a prawn sharing platter to start followed by a seafood linguine. Yhe prawns were large, sift and succulent. Half in a thin filo pastry cooked just right and the other half I a light delicate crispy tempura batter tempting another bite with each crunch. The linguine arrived after a nice interval. Black pepper and parmesan were then offered. The linguine was beautifully cooked with a nice bite but not raw. The cooking juices/sauces mixed with the cheese to provide an exquisite texture of creamy luxury and shellfish flavour to create a wholesome and complete dish. The bowls were scraped clean
