Visited in September of 2019 while on a trip to Wales. We were staying in a B&B just up the street. The area is beautiful and close to so many things.
The food was truly excellent and the staff was attentive and kind.
Hoping to return someday!

This is a lovely little Italian restaurant. A short menu with well prepared food - obviously Italian. Good wine list and the cocktails are very nicely mixed. Service very friendly and unobtrusive. Go for the relaxed ambience, soft music and well cooked dishes by a chef who knows what s/he is doing.

Very rude service. No reception, no greeting, the servers/waiters just stare at us without as much as a "hello", as if we're invisible. We could not try the food as we didnt feel welcome in this restaurant. It's not difficult to say hello to customers and have them seated. At least say hello and acknowledge their existence. Utter rudeness
Update: First of all, I did not "shout". Second of all, when I came in saying hello, you did not seem to care. But when I decided to leave that was the only time you noticed us :) What does that mean? That means you deserved the attitude I had. Apparently that

Lovely hearty Italian food. Staff were very welcoming and competent, service quality was excellent. We came with our 3 year old and she loved the pizza. Seemed like a great place for a romantic meal or a special meal out, we looked a bit scruffy in comparison to other customers but still felt completely welcomed. Parking was very difficult so I would plan that in advance if driving.

You know it’s going to be great food when it’s a Tuesday night and it’s fully booked! This is hands down the best Italian restaurant I have ever visited. The food was amazing, the atmosphere really relaxed, staff really friendly, funny and attentive despite being fully booked and busy…and being able to see into the kitchen and watch everything being made fresh from scratch was brilliant. They had nothing to hide and watching them make the pizzas and pasta etc from scratch just really elevated the entire experience.
If it wasn’t for the fact that we were visiting Cardiff from Yorkshire

Food was lovely, but not amazing...staff very friendly and helpful but the price of wine was shocking...highly over priced...80.00 for a standard bottle of moet and over 30.00 for a very cheap bottle of prosecco... not good. Probably will not go back.

This place was just remodeled and we got a table on the opening night. They were kind enough to get us in and the place looks very nice. The open ceiling was very pretty as the sun set and our table was perfect. We ordered some drinks and they had a good selection of Italian wines and beers. They brought us some olives and we started with a minestrone soup and meatballs. Both were excellent! The meals we got a seafood pasta dish and veal dish. The seafood pasta was amazing with a very generous portion of mussels. The veal dish however tasted like they dropped the salt shaker in it. It was good
