Visited here for dinner and had the mussels in white wine which were exceptional, and could actually pass as a main course, there was so much on the plate. The main course was a mushroom based dish which was also really good, accompanied by a nice cold pint of Birra Moretti. The place was really busy for a Monday night and the service was really quick and staff were very attentive. We will definitely come back next time we're in the West End. Recommended.
