I had such a wonderful experience at Osteria Pulcinella! The staff were incredibly attentive, warm, and genuinely made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Their friendly service added so much to the cosy, inviting atmosphere. The food was absolutely outstanding — every dish was bursting with authentic Italian flavour, from the perfectly cooked pasta to the rich, comforting sauces. It’s clear that a lot of care and passion goes into both the cooking and the service here. I can’t wait to return! 🍝✨

Some dishes start with a plan.
Others start with a thought.
This one started with peas at their sweetest,
and pancetta crisped just enough to be noticed.
When the chef is inspired,
this is what arrives at the table.
