    It's really overpriced. It's great but seriously not worth the price you pay.

    We chose Verdicchio to celebrate a special occasion and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The fillet was cooked to perfection — tender, flavourful, and beautifully presented. The seafood risotto was rich and comforting, with fresh seafood and well-balanced flavours that really stood out. The halloumi salad was fresh and vibrant, with just the right balance of salty halloumi and crisp, colourful ingredients, making it a perfect lighter option alongside the mains. Combined with attentive service and a warm, elegant atmosphere, Verdicchio made our celebration feel truly special. An excellent choice for a memorable occasion.

    My Rump steak was cooked correctly but was extremely chewy. I would have expected the steak to be perfect as is Verdichios normal quality. The rest of the meal was perfect.
