DA VINCI’S POOLE REVIEWS

Fab food and service. Sea bream was deboned at the table. Great Calibran Rose wine recommended by the waiter. Seafood pasta dishes were amazing and the fillet steak cut like butter. Tiramisu to die for.

Food and wine were wonderful and the service from the staff was top notch without being over the top. Will definitely be visiting again.

Very friendly! Food was wow amazing! Definitely will be returning.
