We checked out this restaurant last night. Service was verrrry slow, but they've just opened, and were pretty busy, so I can forgive them. Thought the food was quite nice - nothing remarkable, but good "home cooking" style Italian food. Restaurant had a nice feel to it, staff were friendly, prices were reasonable - will probably go back!

Excelent food, friendly staff they've got rid of the nice bay area at the back I always had my Birthday Bashes there - there's a bar there now but apart from that and breakfast menu YET its a happy addition to East Dulwich (or as the Liberal Council says Nunhead!)

Just returned from this restaurant. Very friendly staff, busy and buzzy atmosphere. Food was good value, generous portions, gutsy flavours - try the Spaghetti Lorenzo (capers, garlic, olives & chillis), particularly recommended. Short and low cost wine list. Probably possible to have a bowl of pasta, salad and glass of wine for less than ?15.00 a head if you chose.


We will return.

We went yesterday for an early evening meal with the children and it was a great success.


I can recommend the fetuccine al salmone - we snacked on some bread and olives beforehand with a glass of montepulciano d'abruzzo.


The childrens portions are slightly smaller versions of the non-childrens versions and cost ?1 less.


The service was very friendly - especially as our youngest decorated the white tablecloth on the table behind him a beautiful tomato red!


Large espressos with toffee/pecan, tiramisu rounded it off perfectly.


We left at about 7, by which time it was starting to fill up big time.


Definitely recommended. Good luck to them.

OK - it is now Monday morning. I am at work, struggling to keep two bits of dry toast down. My body is aching all over and this weekend I became well aquainted with my toilet bowl.


Si Mangia gave me the most horrible case of food poisoning after I (stupidly) ate there on Friday night. I woke up in the night vomiting and this continued all weekend. The actual meal was not even that good! Pasta overcooked, small portions, waiting staff had us in and out in about half an hour.


Visit this hellhole at your peril. A short amount of time there is causing me days of misery.

      Recommendation - Silvano - Driving Instructor

      By cjchung · Posted

      I'd also recommend Silvano for anyone in the area looking to learn automatic, having just passed first time with 5 minors. He's a very patient teacher and ensured I learned how to drive safely above all.

      Idle cricket musing

      You don't need to do the research. I had to know the numbers as a TV buyer. I analysed the potential advertising revenue and Channel Four didn't cover their costs. They had some nice 'Channel Four' signs when someone hit the ropes but, In all honesty, a lot a potential revenue was lost because most old knackers were pissed off because they couldn't perve at Carol Vorderman on 'Countdown'.       Sorry, cross-post. I was replying to Malumbu. Give me a minute, if you will. I listened to the first two sessions (today) on TMS and popped down to the pub for the evening one.   I do miss the days of Peter West, Richie Benaud and Tom Graveney on BBC2.   But, the BBC are at least putting on 'Today At The Test' on at around 7pm instead of after midnight.   And it was on the 10pm news.

      Idle cricket musing

      "PGC, do you reckon this 'Anderson -Tendulkar' series could make Tests a bit more interesting to the wider word?" Alas no. Until it comes back to terrestial telly, I think it will always suffer from elitism(?).  Excepting The Guardian, cricket is barely mentioned in other press. I am fortunate in that my daughter has just added me to her subscription on NOW TV. It has been great to watch this test; it really could have gone either way, eariler in the day, which always makes it more exciting. The only bugbear is that I am a TMS afficianado, and they are about eight deliveries ahead of the tv! I thought Tongue was excellent in mopping up the tailenders, and Duckett was a delight to watch. Bumrah and Jadeja were brilliant to see. I'm sure the Edgbaston crowd will have tremendous supporters for both sides. PS: I don't think Jofra will be back on the strength of one county wicket.
