I came here for the first time with a friend for dinner, and it was such a beautiful experience! The food, service and drinks were all incredible. It felt like I was on holiday in New York.

I would definitely recommend trying the tiramisu, it was unlike anything I had ever tasted, and had an Irish twist—with some Baileys in it!

Take the waiters advice on the food, they know their stuff.

Good ambience, good staff and excellent food made a great night out. Lamb meatballs out of this world and tagliatelle was great.

We went to this restaurant at the recommendation of our Air BNB host Simon. We had the lamb meatball dish and beef meatball dish, a rocket salad and heirloom tomato salad. The two meatball dishes were seasoned and sauced amazingly different and delicious and the salads were the perfect accompaniment. Service was also outstanding. Highly recommend this restaurant.

What are privilege to dine in a restaurant with delicious food and a team that seems to love what they do! We felt welcomed and genuinely cared for. Carpaccio special was heaven; Cacio e peppe was like in Rome. Lovely place; garden-like interior where even the plants were perfectly groomed.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We appreciate that you noticed the indoor plants to be perfectly groomed too - we like to think we put love into everything we do here at Baduzzi, not just the food, wine and service, but our plant life too ;)
