Got a pizza, pasta and zucchini and everything was so so so salty! The pasta was like drinking sea salt! The portions weren’t great and the zucchini was oily and just not that amazing, tasted like seafood so probably cooked in the seafood fryer, overall not good, but dining in might be a better experience?

The best restaurant in Hither Green! Best service, the owner is such a delight and super kind. The food is amazing and made fresh. Their prawn pasta insane so is the mushroom creamy chicken pasta. I love their salad too and dessert. Overall 11/10!

The food was absolutely lovely. The calamari starter was probably the best I’ve had (and I try a lot) My partner had pizza and I had the ravioli for main. Could not fault it. The staff were polite and attentive and were very welcoming. Although small, this restaurant is top tier and I would highly recommend!

Fantastic.
We stopped in ad-hoc on a Saturday night for a sit down meal. I had visited this venue under its previous ownership and thought it was OK back then but thought it was long enough ago I should give it a second go. Boy, what a great decision that was.

We both had the pizza and I added a could of toppings. Quick service, no sense of being rushed along etc. Chef made time to pop over and chat without being too overbearing. Food was some of the best pizza I have had in this country, the mozzarella seemed extra creamy yet not oily. Complimentary olives tasted fantastic. Also, they had what I assumed was an Italian radio station playing, piped over the internet. It gave the small restaurant an authentic vibe.

If I was asked to criticize something it would probably be the wine price. I asked for house wine, they offered a very decent pinot grigio for £26. Given the pizzas were fantastic value at ~£11 the wine pricing seemed out if sync with that value range. But like I said, this was if I asked to balance out my review with a critique.

I will definitely be returning here in the near future where I'll endeavour to take some photographs and update my review.

Lovely pizzas. We had a drink while we waited to take away. The restaurant was warm and comfortable and the staff friendly and efficient.

Have had the pizzas a couple of times, first time I picked them up as takeout, but the place is so nice and cosy we decided to eat in the second time. Really nice relaxed place, lovely chef who was welcoming and attentive and offered to replace one of the topping when I asked for mine without mushrooms. Great pizzas, really nice thin crispy base, perfectly cooked and good ingredients. Only thing to improve is (as others have pointed out) slightly expensive wine options, but food is great value. A very welcome addition to the area!

DON’T GO HERE!! TERRIBLE FOOD AND DISGUSTINGLY RUDE STAFF.

I went here with my Nan in February and ordered and paid for 2 margaritas pizzas and garlic bread online. After picking up the pizza, the pizza was black on the bottom and burnt and the garlic bread was over cooked and had no taste whatsoever. We were regulars in here and came 1-2 times a month but the food wasn’t good so we walked back and complained and the young girl and chef were rude and obscene. They told us this pizza was fine and that my Nan always orders garlic bread with cheese (she’s never done) and is why she didn’t like the garlic bread. They also didn’t apologise and the chef was eating his pizza practically in our face when we was complaining. My Nan felt very distressed and upset and it completely ruined our evening.
