This Italian restaurant seats about 30 people. As soon as you walk in , you're greeted with a Buonasera and a smile.There are tables against one wall as well as stools along a bench and bar.The atmosphere is cozy with Italian music playing in the background .Everything is fresh and the menu is written up on the board.My calamari was lovely and tender and the fresh fettuccine with veal ragù was mouth watering . The portions were a good size.We had Campari spritz and a superb glass of Amarone Veneto red wine.The service was relaxed and attentive as it should be.We will definitely be returning.

Had a lovely meal here. Spontaneously came across it as we were walking along looking for somewhere to eat for the night. Everything was excellent apart from the fact I had my wine poured into a water glass?!I looked around and other people had proper wine glasses so I was a bit baffled.Maybe because we were sitting up on the bar section near the window? I don't know but I have never had wine poured into this type of glass before ever! Small thing but it made a difference as it felt like they couldn't be bothered getting a proper glass and i didn't enjoy it as much.
It was a cold, drizzly night, but the friendly welcome and warmth inside made it worthwhile venturing out to Cucinetta's for a meal. As others have noted, space is at a premium and even the tables are small, but once the meal is served, the focus quickly turns to the delicious, rustic Italian cuisine presented. For dessert, do try the restaurant's own take on tiramisu and affogato, both superb. Special mention to Omar the waiter who was very attentive and made us feel we were at a friend's home for dinner instead of a restaurant.
What a lovely, but so small restaurant with terrific service and good food. Not a huge choice in the wines (Sunday is BYO apparently) but for a little local Italian restaurant I'd recommend it for atmosphere, service and tasty food. Can highly recommend the tiramisu and bruschetta. Book a table now
This place is tiny. It only seats 20 people or so. The chef seems to cook out of a broom cupboard... but the food is really nice. They have a really small menu, but if you like really authentic Italian cuisine, it's well worth trying.
Simple and imaginative menu with delicious and colourful selection of entrees, share plates and mains well supported by wine list. Very good service and you can see into the small kitchen as the staff busily prepare the food.
You need to book ahead in this tiny restaurant. It is like eating in a friend's Italian home. Nothing is too much trouble. The service. Is so good you don't want to leave. Good food, good wine list, what's not to love.
What an authentic Italian restaurant!!! Excellent food, amazing wine, perfect service, cozy venue. These guys really know what they're doing... lot of passion in every single detail. Highly recommended Book a table now
Small but lovingly crafted spot with delicious Italian food and wine. Attentive professional service. A little gem
They say good things come in small packages, and Cucinetta is a prime example.
