6 of us visited Linguini Fini on Friday night with high expectations.....


Unfortunately we started out with 2 cocktails and wine...both cocktails were sent back as they tasted like "dishwater"


The starters were bland, small and expensive:

The beef carpacio was the best of the lot...tasty and good portion

Main courses:

The mushroom pasta was too salty and had no sauce...just mushrooms and pasta.

The eggplant parmigiana was very small and although tasty was a bit dry and looked very lonely and sad on the plate.

The 3 pizzas we ordered were ordinary, a bit dry with little topping...Pizza Express would have been a better bet.

Desserts were better...tiramisu was quite good and the basil ice cream was delicious. The 2 tiny scoops of vanilla gelato in a tiny bowl were a little embarrassing...tasty but small and badly presented.

All in all we were very disappointed...

Other Info. : This was a case of lots of trumpets...no music. As a pasta/pizza dive charging a local price for a local meal...fine.... As a trendy, not inexpensive, Italian restaurant with good pasta and yummy pizza this place fails miserably.
