Vine

You walk into Vine and it feels right—the kind of place where they've thought about every detail without making a fuss about it. The Grove location puts you in the heart of things, walkable from the station if you fancy it, and the room itself has this warm, unfussy feel that makes you want to linger. The kitchen takes Italian cooking seriously; you'll find proper handmade pasta and seasonal ingredients done the way they should be, not some watered-down version designed to please everyone. It's the sort of restaurant where locals keep coming back because the food's honest and the service actually knows their stuff.
