My big fat italian christening
celebrated my daughters christening there march 2012. We had the upstairs function room - it was decorated beautifully. Francis was extremely generous with her time and very flexible. I was able to personalise my party all my requests were approved - the food was excellent, big portions, steak was tender and melted in your mouth, the staff were happy and friendly, I couldn't of asked for a more perfect day - Thank you.
