Portion sizes here are the first thing anyone mentions, and for a family that matters — one starter genuinely feeds two, so a couple of dishes plus sides will stretch across small appetites, and doggy bags home are normal. It's an Italian kitchen doing pizzas, baked meatballs in marinara, fresh pasta and enormous steaks, with cakes and tiramisu big enough to share between three. There's a kids' menu, high chairs, buggy access, free parking and outdoor tables when the weather holds. Staff are attentive without hovering, which helps when children are restless. Worth knowing: the entrance area near the door is a narrow corridor of tables that echoes and feels cut off from the main room, so ask to sit inside the arch when you book. Prices are fair for what lands — around £86 for three starters, two mains and drinks.
