Having read @Monstermunch's review I felt compelled to leave one of my own. I have eaten here with my folks 3 times in the past 6 months and each time has been a pleasure. The service has always been decent, with friendly and informative staff. The food is of a generally high standard and the menu offers both variety and value. My parents (who are very picky/fussy) love this place and say it feels like a genuine Italian restaurant - which is a pretty well qualified opinion given that they holiday in Italy 2-3 times a year!

They served us food from the bin! Me and my boyfriend went for a meal at Aragosta Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria last summer and everything was fine (except for a bit of dodgy avocado in the salad) until it was time to leave. Anyone who has been there will know that the pizzas are pretty big and virtually everyone takes the rest of theirs home in a box. So after paying the bill and waiting over 20 minutes for our pizza boxes to come out we called someone over to see if everything was ok. As it happened we were sat in full view of the kitchen and could see the manager waving his arms and shouting at the kitchen staff. Eventually a man arrived with two boxes for us so we left but on the way home when we looked inside half of the toppings were gone and the rest of it had all slid to one side. Mine even had toppings including meat stuck to the bottom and mine was vegetarian! It was totally obvious that they had thrown them out by accident and then fished them out of the bin rather than give us a refund or new pizza. By the time we got back to the restaurant it was closed and after that we had to throw the "evidence" away. Don't think they would have admitted to this anyway- Dangerous and dishonest - don't go there!

I love the food here. Living in Palmers Green, it's a regular haunt so if the owners are reading, a big thank you to the staff for years of quality Italian cooking!
