Went this evening, so relieved to find the same great, welcoming local restaurant that we know and love, albeit with a different name. Lots of the same staff, menu very similar to Si Mangia, and we thought the pizzas were better than before.

[Mick Mac]

What has changed? Presumbly just a bit of an update?

[Pickle]

Mic Mac, not much. A bit of redecoration, possibly a different chef (based on the pizzas being different - they were good before, but really good yesterday). A few minor changes to the menu, but still all the offerings you'd expect from an Italian restaurant.

A few minor changes to the menu,

More pizza and pasta, fewer 'second plates' including no fish on the second course and no risotto. What we had was very good (in a Lorenzo style) seemed freshly prepared and was well seasoned. Vegetables (in a pasta) were very much al dente and fresh tasting.

[Gubodge]

Very glad to hear it's mainly the same staff; I was worried they might all have been laid off. I can book our first visit now!

[Jah Lush]

Went yesterday. Still as good as it ever was.

[Mrs Y]

Lovely Seabass last night in Lorenezo's. So pleased it back on the menu 👍

Been a few times with the kids now for a 12pm lunch after going to the park.

Good food, good price and the staff are great, remembering the kids names etc..

[joseba]

Unfortunately most of our favourites were taken off the menu such as the spicy squid starter. The menu has become much more like your common "pasta & pizza" Italian.

[Henry_17]

JB,

Pop in a few doors down, pretend you have no money, then laugh.

[Mrs Y]

Yeah now opening lunch times

Was there on Saturday Excellent gamberoni and mussels. Chef is ex Trattoria Rafael in Sydenham, fairly recently rated No 1 on Trip Advisor.

A problem with the booking was sorted courteously and with complimentary drinks by way of apology.

Have booked a table for this Saturday
