"A Sardinian newcomer in Primrose Hill with a simply decorated, serious interior and a sunny, joyful food personality. Dishes that might sound odd often work: lamb tartare with pecorino emulsion is startling in concept but brightly seasoned and effective, while pappardelle with rabbit ragu is sinuous, luscious and perfectly cooked. Guinea fowl with creamy potato and black truffle is generously portioned and much appreciated. There are minor quibbles — octopus can be a touch chewy, the chef’s preference for the firmer side of al dente undermines a couple of pastas, and the flourless chocolate cake is rather dour — but a biodynamic wine list and an unpretentious, engagingly bygone atmosphere make it easy to be entranced." - George Reynolds
