samc Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Where not to go: La Scala - Very disappointing. Mean little portions. We were all still hungry after. And we had to move table for some unexplained reason by a grumpy head of house. They asked us to move again and get a short sharp NO. And what is that excuse of profiteroles they serve with squirty dirty brown cream? Rossi's - same issue as Nick2. They charged us for a few drinks that none of us had. Naughty... Is that a common ploy they try?? Never dared go to Martinis but will now after the pizza description by Plain_Talker. Yummmm I like Thyme cafe as it is family friendly. Mama and Leonies is just pure comfort food. All cosy and snug. I adore it. I have had good meals at Marco @ Milanos but is very footballer wives on Fri/Sat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we went there (see our above posts on Marco@milano's) we weren't keen at all. The food was a mish-mash of different styles, not singularly authentically Italian, it was "neither fish nor fowl" in style.(IOO) Martini is by far the better place, more intimate,and friendly, welcoming, etc... more of a home-like place, and the food is just to die for.

beanpod Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Has anyone been to La Stanza Romano on Chesterfield Road? I was thinking of checking it out since it's had a facelift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Milano isn't really an Italian and never has been - it's run by Italians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
