Mietta's Review
A busy, friendly place tucked away in a little lane away from the Lygon St traffic. The set-up is professional, the place well-run and spotlessly clean. The courtyard is always full on sunny days. The menu is basic Italian and the standard good with particular recommendations for the gnocchi. A short wine list with some wines by the glass. Good coffee, as you should expect in a well-run place.
