This was no ordinary night out for dinner....it was a truly awesome gastronomic adventure. The whole experience was wonderful from start to finish. We were greeted so warmly and their attention to detail was off the scale. A delicious menu with something for everyone and a wine list to match perfectly with your chosen dishes. The staff were attentive; nothing was too much trouble. A truly 5* evening.

The food was truly delicious. It made you want to know how they were able to do it but also not know, just so it doesn’t spoil the magic they place in front of you.

I can’t thank you enough for such a special night.

Absolutely fabulous authentic Italian food. Some people think Italian food is Pasta and Pizza, thats a small part of real Italian food is all about. Baduzzi understand that and offer a range of Italian specialities.

There is no other word to describe our dining but as an ""experience"" in the best way possible

We felt noticed ,embraced and cared for by your exceptional waiting staff member Adam

The food was divine and the atmosphere was buzzing

Yet amazingly me and my birthday girl wife) were able to maintain a sparkling conversation throughout the whole evening and could easily hear each other , not often the case at other eateries we have been at which does dull the dining experience in our view

Compliments to the chef as the food was as I expressed earlier divine

We will definitely recommend to friends and will grace your red door again

The birthday treat was a lovely touch

All the very best for your future

Warm Regards

Brent Murray
