Amazing atmosphere! Great authentic italian food by best staff! I celebrated my birthday and the chef went the extra mile and made a great tiramisu from scratch just to made the celebrations on point! 5 stars! Highly recommended! Will surely go again!!

Lovely Italian restaurant. More choice of interesting dishes. Absolutely packed on a Saturday night so not ideal for a romantic dinner.

Peasan is all about the vivid atmosphere and the authentic Italian food. The staff is very friendly and the chef entertaining from his open kitchen. The beef ragu pasta are delicious and portions are generous. I have been there 3 times already and I will come back. Thanks!

Save your money, a high street chain is much nicer and cheaper. Dry meatballs and spaghetti tastes like it's from Tesco.

Great tasting food at great prices. We did their lunch time set menu.
They made sure we were in and out within our hour lunch break.

Ordered mushrooms pasta from the market stall. Tried to like it, but had to return the pasta. it was awful, lacking flavour, not much mushrooms and too much cream. I'm sure the food is good in the restaurant, but this pasta was below standard. anyone would make better mushroom pasta at home. Sorry guys. but thanks for money back.

Food wasn’t great (steak chewy and vegan gnocchi very bland) and didn’t cater well for vegans. Nice atmosphere though

This is for the bar downstairs. Rather bare bones ambience. Bartender took forever to make the drinks. Drinks were very strong which were good to make up for the lack of ambience + service.

Really good place for food, or drinks in their "basement". The pastas they serve at lunch on the road are also exceptional. Great happy hour downstairs with £2 beers

Great great food - one of my favourite dishes was sadly only a special for a short time (so I made the most of it!) but there are always plenty of options and their monthly regional specials definitely add to the mix.

Probably my favourite semi-hidden bar in town. The restaurant up top hides the basement bar of your dreams down below. Cavernous but snug sums up the bare brick, stylishly decor of the cellar bar with old wine stores, converted to seating …

Completely underwhelming. Went here on Saturday night at 8:30 with friends. Service poor, food really average and bland and music blaring from the downstairs bar throughout. We all left dissatisfied and disappointed.

An absolutely appalling service, the waiter could not be less interested if he tried. He couldn't even tell us what beers they sell and when we finally got hold of the menu he just passive aggressively points reaching over our shoulders …

After a promising start with a decent arancini small plate, we were sadly left disappointed by the pasta. Orecchiette was a mixture of hard and doughy and the Vongole was bland. Although we ordered a large version of the vongole for an …

The food is excellent. It's great to see a proper Italian restaurant done well. They specialise in regional Italian cooking, so meat and fish feature as much as the pasta course. As if that wasn't enough, there is a cocktail bar …

Overall it was disappointing. Very expensive for what it E.g. £21 for four tortelloni. Service was poor, we had to ask three times for drinks before they remembered. Wrong dish brought for one of us. Three of us had the same dish, but some …

A group of us went to dinner here last night. The starters were ok but bland. Our mains took over an hour to arrive and some were almost inedible - the cod was cold and …

We stumbled on this lovely gem by coincidence and were lucky to get a table on a Saturday evening. The waiter gave us brilliant recommendations on what to order and we're so glad we took his advice because the food was delicious! The service was excellent, the prices very reasonable and I would certainly recommend!

The pasta with truffles was excellent, the meatballs on the other hand were dry, powdery, and tasteless. The tomato sauce was bordering on the disgusting, and the pasta was clearly cheap packet pasta. If I hadn't tried the truffle pasta this would be a one star review, that's how good it was and how poor the meatballs were.

Worst service ever. Got seated, forgotten for 15 minutes, went to ask for service, received none. The restaurant was less than half full too which made this unacceptable- and the manager seemed completely non plussed when we left without having ordered anything.
