Pizzeria Restorante Pasta

It says something of the playful ethos of this stylish restaurant that outside on the blackboard the quote of the day reads: "Confucius say? if you want pretty nurse, you got to be patient."

Inside a sparkling interior reveals a solid glass stairwell leading up to an eating area that almost appears al fresco with its glass roof and bright white table cloths.

Pizzeria Restorante Pasta looks like the kind of place where champagne glasses should be clinked on a long summer's evening.

The funky metal bar downstairs offers a fine selection of cocktails and food prices are very reasonable with antipasti ranging from £3-£6, pasta dishes coming in around £7-£8 and pizzas - featuring unusual topping such as crayfish tails - a respectable £8. There is a regular specials board with red meats and fish such as red snapper and the staff are very friendly and welcoming.
