]]> I bought a meal and theatre package in a charity auction for Hope and Homes for Children not really knowing what to expect. I went along to Da Vinci\'s with a friend as her birthday treat and the meal was fantastic, the service second to none and the play was great as well. All in all a perfect night out.

Thank you‎!

The vitello saltimbocca (veal) is to die for, the bistecca paesana is to die twice for (it is Karl\'s signature dish). The smoked chicken salad starter is glorious and full of exotic salad leaves and colour, and the gamberoni are large luscious and succulent with a mysterious secret sauce.

I judge an Italian restaurant by its spaghetti carbonara because for me it is another favourite and so common that it is difficult to excel, I have eaten in Milan, Rome, Florence, Bologna and Moderna (to name but a few) and this is the best to date. They need to add some Italian meats as antipasta - I told Karl already!!!

The wine list is well-balanced and full of choice, the Valpolicella Classico is amazing and the white Verdicchio Classico is equally robust and very fairly priced. They also stock (my idea) an excellent and cheaply priced brandy that goes by the name Vecchia Romana (a true Italian brandy) with that slight zest of almond essence.

I hope this recommendation leads you to this wonderful place with linen on linen and first class service. Book in advance, particularly on a Friday or Saturday, because otherwise you will not get in, even mid-week can be full.

]]> What can one say about DaVincis? I have eaten there now on about 10+ occasions, (and recommened to loads of people) and I nor my friends have never been disapointed with anything. Karl\'s enthusiasm of his job is evident of an exceptional high standard of food that arrives at your table. The atmosphere is always warming and nothing is too much for the front of house staff led by the wonderful Nikkie. Keep up the great work guys. Sean Biggins‎
