Wonderful restaurant and staff, and a beautiful place to sit. It is expensive, but relatively speaking for the location it's not tooooo bad. The food was really delicious - I recommend the melanzane for starter, it's magic!

Worst service ever, despite there being 8 staff on and the restaurant was not busy. The staff were too busy having a chinwag with each other.
Took 25 minutes just to order drinks. (Cold red wine) And another 40 mins to get someone over for water.
Mains took forever 1 hour to come out.. Food is under seasoned and plain. Nothing Italian about the place! (Pasta was literally just plain white spaghetti)
We travelled from afar to visit this place and they did not even notify us that their pizza oven is not working. Pretty much everything we wanted was sold out Take it of the menu!!! Overall super

Went with my husband for an Xmas meal on Xmas day at 2.30 very busy
We were a two not a great seat for me. We visited 6 years ago. No crackers apart from lights and a Xmas tree didn't feel that festive.i went for an Italian starter which contain but it was not cooked enough sauce was nice. My main and my husbands was very tasty mine was a lamb shank his was salmon with a sauce. But I think with fish he should have had perhaps one different veg as Brussels sprouts do not go with fish . I only had two small potatos. Sweets were nice. So would I go again but not on Xmas day

I took my parents and brother last night for first time last night. It was an amazing experience, the staff were really friendly and helpful. The food was simply delicious and I would say that it deserved its price. I can not wait to visit again.

This restaurant truly is superb from start to finish ! If I could give more than five stars I would . I visited with my wife and a few friends as we had all been recommended this restaurant . From the moment we walked in staff were very attentive and pleasant , the restaurant really had a warm feel to it and looked magical with the fantastic Christmas decorations . We were seated right away and drink orders taken shortly after . The manager recommended a gorgeous Umbrian red wine which went down a treat ! Starters , mains and desserts were all divine , very generous portion sizes and really tasty

Me and my boyfriend visited La Fiamma this evening for a romantic candle lit dinner, the food was incredible. Every course we had was so delicious, they even put a candle on my boyfriends tiramisu which was very sweet! The staff were also great, super attentive and professional. We will definitely return for the views, incredible food and great service!

Unfortunately, worst calzone I've ever had. Very disappointed overall. After a long wait for the food, the dough was absolutely tasteless. Not taking this into consideration, the worst thing came after we left as both myself and another guest got sick from the food. The staff at the restaurant was polite, however the fact that we still are not feeling well, overshadows the whole experience.
