Amico Bio is on a very cute street, serves delicious wine (get the one with squirrel on the label and persistent cherries ), is all dark wood on the inside and the restaurant is vegetarian and organic.
It all sounds perfect, doesn't it? It's not.
The only other persisting factor, bar the cherries, was the distinct feeling that each dish missed the mark, somehow.
My tofu, orange and fennel salad starter was heavy on tofu and light on taste, the risotto balls were a poor man's Arancini and the Kiwi Tart/Pie was in need of help.
OK, I'm verging on too harsh so I'll reign myself in. The spinach and ricotta cannelloni was decent, not life changing...but definitely edible. Yeah, I realise, I still sound harsh but it's difficult to be positive when things 'persistently' did not quite fit.
I even asked Fiancé and Marmot for their opinions...sure, they mumbled something but the lack of any real conviction behind what they were saying/mumbling lead me to believe that they felt the way I did.
Price: Approximately £82.00 for 1 x bottle of red wine, 3 x glass of prosecco, 3 x 3 course meal and service charge. All on the top table offer
