    Three girlfriends catching up were glad to try the new restaurant on the block, having dined at the same location previously when it had a different name. Happy to say the service was streets ahead from before and the food was delicious also. We tried the Burratini, scallop and duck risotto starter plates. Enjoyed the first two very much, the duck not as much. We were saving our appetites so each of us ordered a different starter. Some feedback we gave to the waiter which hopefully is helpful, is that we wanted all 3 to come at the same time so we were eating together, not one after the other. You may need to request this if you order like we did. We then shared beef brisket pasta and pumpkin lasagne with a side of charred cos lettuce. Absolutely delicious, and just a nice amount for us. The Pinot Grigio from Italy was lovely with the meal and reasonably priced. We finished with 2 limoncellos. We had a lovely comfortable table to eat drink and chat and even though we were outside on a very cool night, it was really cosy with the heater on. Will be back to try more of the menu. Welcome to Oxford St, Romeo.
