Hello, has anyone been to this new restaurant? Is it any good?


Wedding anniversary coming up and as usual it is me who has to plan where to go! As we have to pay for a babysitter and their cab home we can't really push the boat out too much price wise.


I would be really grateful if anyone could let me know what this place is like as I love Italian food and we spent part of our honeymoon in Italy.


Many thanks.

We've used it for family get togethers and as a couple. Recommneded for good food, good value for money but it, might, lack a bit of romantic "oomph" essential for wedding anniversary dinner. Lighting is a bit bright - whereas I always look for subdued lighting and candles when dining romantically (husband looks better in dim lighting!!) - it's all a bit bright. Apart fcrom this tho' I'd recommend Si MAngia highly.
We went the other night and enjoyed it, it is what it is. Food is fine, atmosphere is good, we enjoyed it and will go back. In other words don't expect the very finest in cuisine but decent value at seven or eight quid for a main. Not somewhere I'd particularly recommend for a romantic dinner as EDDW suggest but not disastrous by any stretch of the imagination.
We tried Si Mangia on Friday night after heading down the road bound for a juicy Herne-burger, only to find the pub closed for a private function. Despite its lacklustre location, the restaurant was fantastic, and the Italian sausage with borlotti beans and spaghetti was to die for. Hope this sparks the start of a Forest Hill Road makeover. What a novelty to walk out of the front door and turn right for dinner, instead of heading straight for Lordship Lane.

    • I know nothing about farming so can't really comment but when I read things like this interesting thread from Guy Shrubsole I am increasingly cynical about those making the loudest noise.  And yes it is a genuine link.    
    • The top front tooth has popped out.  Attempted to fix myself with repair kit bought from Boots, unfortunately it didn’t last long.  Tooth has popped out again.  Unable to get to dentist as housebound but family member can drop off.  I tried dental practice I found online, which is near Goose Green, but the number is disconnected.   The new dental practice in FH (where Barclays used to be) said it’s not something they do.  Seen a mobile dental practice where a technician comes to your home and does the repair but I’m worried about the cost. Any suggestions please? Thank you 
    • So its OK for Starmer to earn £74K/annum by renting out a property, cat calling the kettle black....... Their gravy train trundles on. When the Southport story that involves Starmer finally comes out, he's going to be gone, plus that and the local elections in May 2025 when Liebour will get a drumming. Even his own MP's have had enough of the mess they've made of things in the first three months of being in power. They had fourteen years to plan for this, what a mess they've created so quickly, couldn't plan there way out of a paper bag.   Suggest you do the sums, the minimum wage won't  be so minimum when it is introduced, that and the increase in employers national insurance contributions is why so many employers are talking about reducing their cohort of employees and closing shops and businesses.  Businesses don't run at a loss and when they do they close, its the only option for them, you can only absorb a loss for so long before brining the shutters down and closing the doors. Some people are so blinkered they think the sun shines out of the three stooges, you need to wake up soon. Because wait till there are food shortages, no bread or fresh vegetables, nor meat in the shops, bare shelves in the supermarkets because the farmers will make it happen, plus prices spiralling out of control as a result of a supply and demand market. Every ones going to get on the gravy train and put their prices up, It happened before during lockdown, nothing to stop it happening again. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you. Then you'll see people getting angry and an uprising start to happen.  Hungry people become angry people very quickly. 
    • Eh? Straight ahead of what?  If you turn left at Goose Green, as you also posted above, you end up at the library. Then the Grove. Then, unless you turn right at the South Circular, you end up at Forest Hill!
