Although the restaurant was packed there seemed to be plenty of staff bustling about the place to keep anyone from waiting. Fresh homemade semolina pasta, perfectly herbed and seasoned and just the right amount of food. The vongole was also one of the best ever, the clams were out of their shells and plump, juicy little darlings. The carpaccio was easily the best I've ever tasted, delicious.

Moments later she came back with another basket full of the lovely bread informing me that this had "just come out of the oven", God bless her, she just earned herself a generous tip. She promptly brought some delicious homemade bread to the table but as soon as I'd eaten one piece she suddenly took the basket away! I was distraught. She told me to hold off on ordering any more food as she was going to bring me some bread and I could always order something else later. I asked her if she thought that would be enough food as I was hungry and overweight. A charming waitress brought me a beer and took my order of Tuna Carpaccio followed by Spaghetti Vongole. A very pleasant young man greeted me and told me I was in luck, he had a table available. This particular evening I was 'flying solo' and just wandered in off the street on the off chance. My son had told me about it a few days earlier but we hadn't been able to get a reservation. I went here just after xmas and was lucky to get a table as it was very busy and I hadn't booked.
