We went there for lunch on Saturday as a result of this glowing review, and would have had it on the terrace.


We were so disappointed to find that the menu consisted solely of various not particularly interesting looking salads plus three dishes on bread.


The waitress did say that she would ask the chef if he could cook us something else, but we did not want to put him (I think it's a him) to the trouble, and in any case at 1pm we were the only people in the place, outside or inside, so the atmosphere was not exactly wonderful.


We decided to go elsewhere and try in the evening sometime in the hope that the menu would be more varied and/or interesting.


I realise the salads were probably in response to the very hot weather, and I like salad, but if I spend money on eating out I do expect to get offered something a bit different that I probably wouldn't make at home.

Went on Saturaday. Overall, fairly average. Courgette flowers for starters were nice but you only get 2 of them so for ?7.50 it's a little steep. Shared the courgette pasta and Stella pizza (which is actually some sort of calzone). Again, small portion for of the pasta which needed a bit more of a sauce. The pizza was probably the pick of the bunch but didnt seem to have all of the toppings listed on the menu. Service was slow and a bit chaotic. Il Mirto has nothing to fear.

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
