1st time in Vespa even though its on our door step !! And what a pleasant surprise. Greeted at the door and shown to our table, and asked if the table was good for us. The server came over within a good time for our drinks order, which promptly arrived then asked if we we're ready to order. Excellent menu choice and quite a decision. Food served very timely. It was hot and seriously delicious. Highly recommended, and we will back. Staff we're courteous and chatty but not OTT Well done everyone.

Had to ask 3 times for the bill while waitress cuddling and kissing boyfriend sat at a table. Paid at the bar in the end, wont be returning. Starter was excellent, main meal was lackluster.

The service was excellent with very friendly staff. There was a little draft where we were sat, but the staff were happy to move us. The food itself was lovely. We shared a tomahawk steak and the others shared a chateaubriand. Both were delicious. One side of chips was enough between two of us, but the garlic and sesame seed green veg was delicious too. No way could any of us have managed a dessert!
