This time we espressoed our interest in Italian cuisine by heading to Maurizio Dining & Co.
The ambiance was perfect, with candle lit tables and a rustic atmosphere. The service was decent but we found ourselves waiting on drinks and the bill. The food was decently priced for Cambridge, with a pepperoni pizza costing us £14. Finally, the food was fine but nothing particularly amazing, wouldn't recommend it to pizza fans.
Until next time,
Pasta la Vista.
From the minute we entered the restaurant, Maurizio was so welcoming and took time to come and chat to us even though we later learnt that he spends time in the kitchen too. He introduced us to his homemade tomato sauce and chilli relish about 3 minutes after stepping through the door. I actually felt as though I was visiting family, I was made to feel so comfortable.
We chose bruschetta and the dirty bread for starters. I would never in a million years chosen the dirty bread, but Maurizio sold it so well with the homemade tomato sauce and chilli relish - no regrets, would highly recommend.
The special of the day was tortellini in the homemade tomato sauce, which my partner opted for and I went for an 'easy cheasy' with mushrooms and olives - both fantastic and very tasty.
To top it all off we couldn't leave without trying the chocolate salame (homemade, of course - there's a running theme here!), Which was outstanding!
To Maurizio, your partner and your team... We had such a wonderful evening and when next in the area we will be sure to return.
The photos really do not do this food justice.
P.s. the new team are doing just great 😊
The bruschetta was prepared with their home-made bread, which unfortunately is disappointing as well. Even the garlic looked old and shredded rather than cut.
The service was good, the price reasonable and the venue clean, but I don't think I will give them another chance.
