So finally after many attempts we go to polpo, the amazing polpo. Well no not in this case, we waited what seems to be the "mandatory" "just over an hour" wait. Which of course you end up drinking in the tiny cramped bar area. This is all fine, we knew there would be a wait so I really shouldn't moan about that.
So on to the food... We ordered their signature meatballs dish, some pork wrapped in pancetta, arancini, aka those amazing Italian rice balls and asparagus in an anchovies butter melt artichokes.
The verdict ... It was very disappointing. The signature meatballs were dry and over cooked and pork was also very over cooked and the rest was just average. Apart from the asparagus, that was lovely, but maybe an anchovy or two too many.
All in all I won't be going back.
No photos i am afraid as it was just too dark.
