Absolutely awful food and a complete waste of money. Place in need of total renovation but don’t take my word for this see for yourself first impressions count very dirty and run down wish we had never got out of the car. Very expensive £4 for small bottle of still water two bowls of pasta over £30 and then service charge £4.75 no atmosphere what so ever feels like an old motel in a horror film.

Me and my partner came for dinner here yesterday evening and I have to say it was the best meal I have had in Cornwall so far. Hannah and her partner Philipe really are wonderful. I felt like I have known them a long time as the time flew by as we chatted. Hannah recommend many places for us to go on our travels round Cornwall.I really liked that they teach the young staff members their roles, added to the family restaurant touch.The food itself was amazing. The fish and pasta so fresh and the flavours were amazing. Hannah makes the tiramisu herself and it’s the best in the world! ;)Unfortunately we were so invested in eating the food we forgot to take pictures!I can’t wait to come back and see you! Aswell as eat some more food!Thanks for making our evening special!

We stumbled across Zucchini's in the evening after a long trip down for hols - and wow what a find! Superb food, lovely restaurant & great friendly service. Pizza was one of the best I've had in Britain - the lady owner said they use a 5th generation family Italian recipe for the tomato base which explains it all. Delicious. And they use 45 year old balsamic in the salads which explains why my wife loved hers so much. Prices fair enough as well. We'll certainly be going back there this week. Highly recommended!

So we didn't stay in the hotel but we had dinner there. The staff were lovely and friendly, the manager told us little bits about the team.The place was super cute and romantic vibes with cute fairy lights.Overall it was a lovely date night ❤️

Firstly and most importantly the food tasted great…although we did book primarily for our girls to have mussels and sadly there hadn’t been a delivery of any the day we went to the restaurant.Most of the party picked pasta dishes as mains and these were really tasty. One of the owners is Italian and he works in the kitchen providing an authentic meal. Portions were not big but we had all had enough food.First impressions of the place aren’t brilliant tbh. The exterior looks a bit scruffy and uninviting. I understand that running a business in todays climate can’t be easy and very expensive however all the floodlights in the car park we’re turned off, steps up to the entrance door had weeds growing through and then upon entering the restaurant it has a somewhat strange and musty smell.Service was a little odd, the evening wasn’t too busy when we arrived at 6pm yet it felt like we were waiting an age for drinks and the young team of staff seemed flustered. The other owner came over to our table and was great with feeding the dog in our party lots of treats and bringing activity sheets for our children. It was very obvious that she cares about the experience you have when there.All in all a mixed bag. Did we have a nice night? Well…it was ok. Could it have been better…yes probably. Would I go again? Possibly not.

We absolutely loved eating here. The food was amazing and the friendliness of the staff was unreal. We visited Perranporth for a weeks holiday and booked this as we had eaten so many times we just fancied some pasta. The pasta was soooo good. We just wish we had tried it earlier in our holiday. It has limited opening days, so we only visited once but would have gone every day had we known. As for the staff, they were so polite and friendly. We spoke to the owner, who just blew my mind. She was so lovely, she came with water and treats for our dog. Then she gave us an information sheet of what we should do in Cornwall. The very next day, we used the information including recommendations for other eateries. She was absolutely spot on. Again... this place and staff get my highest recommendation!! Everyone should go!!! Do it!!

A lovely evening for some Italian grub.We were welcomed to the table by one of the owners who said that the chef was her husband. She explained where all the fish etc was sourced from and this was a nice touch that made the restaurant feel authentic and homely. All food was, according to the owner, cooked to order and fully customisable (e.g. less or more chilli for each dish).The food was exceptional. The pasta was cooked lovely and the sauce very tasty. The desserts just as appetising.Plenty of ample parking in the car park - however it could do with resurfacing as there are a lot of pot holes.Overall a great evening and I would recommend this place.

I wish I never brought my family there to treat them for a meal, we left hungry and ended up in kfc. We ordered three pizzas - two at the price of nearly £16 and another at £12. The pizzas felt at best a starter size, or even a child pizza size and was very small for the price.The place has tasty food but it’s incredibly over priced for what you get, so be warned.To top this, they even tried to add service charge of nearly £12…not impressed!

The worst Italian restaurant I have ever been to. An insult really to call what is being served Italian food and being Italian and regularly eating Italian food I feel I can say that. Very overpriced and very underwhelming. I will definitely not be returning...ever. I can't even blame it on being rushed off their feet as there was only our table and another two tables the whole time we were there. The only good point was the young staff, they gave good service but other than that nothing else to say other than avoid this tourist trap, save your money and go elsewhere.
