I went to this small Italian tapas-style restaurant repeatedly while
in Manchester over Easter.
Deansgate is not well-supplied with eateries; they tend to be
either flashy bars or basic street food. I have no objection to the
latter, but I don't want to eat it all the time. (And obviously I
wasn't going to eat in the hotel if I had a choice. I'm paying for
this with my own money.)
So I was very happy to find this Italian eatery. During the day it's
mostly a sandwich shop; for supper it does tapas-type plates with
multiple things on them (calamari, garlic mushrooms, whitebait, etc.),
as well as full dishes of the standard Italian fare such as risottos,
pasta, and, yes, pizza.
And it was all delicious, clearly made by hand (we only ever saw one
member of staff and he vanished for extended periods), sometimes a
little slow to arrive but well worth the wait. Prices weren't bad for
a city centre place.
I will definitely go back here if I find myself in Manchester again,
but sadly wasn't able to justify a trip while I was in Stockport last
weekend.
