Birthday and New Years eve family dinner at our favourite restaurant
The best hosts, the food sublime and the company outstanding- and that includes the owners and staff of this restaurant. Over the years the owners and staff have become family. I cannot imagine going anywhere else to celebrate any special event. To Adrian, George and all the staff thank you for the amazing food, warmth and love for all of these years. I hope 2026 sees an even better year for you than this one.
''The Best restaurant in Carlisle''

What an incredible night out! Our family reservation meant we were seated immediately upon arrival. Drinks and meals arrived promptly after ordering, no long waits here. I savored mussels to start, a creamy mushroom risotto for the main, and a heavenly tiramisu to cap it off. All dishes felt fresh and perfectly executed. Hands down, the top spot in Carlisle and beyond. Huge thanks to the chefs and staff for an unforgettable evening!
Best Italian in town

This is one of the best restaurants in north Cumbria and it's probably my family's favourite. Great choice of tasty Italian food at reasonable prices - even more so during Happy Hour. Atmosphere excellent, staff very friendly and attentive and the service, however busy, is very good. My grandson has had his last two birthday meals there and the staff always make a fuss of him. Can't really fault this place.
